Some Great Reviews...

I recently received 2 fantastic reviews from Mommy bloggers who got their paws on one of my owl hats... Please check out these great Mommy bloggers and their adorable kiddies wearing my hats :)

Holiday Shopping Anyone?!


Crazy to believe, but Christmas is less than 50 days away! Or at least that's what I keep reading on Facebook today... I mean really, who has the time to count?! I'm just sayin'.

Anyway, I wanted to write a short post to let you all know that a have a few custom order spots available for crocheted hats delivered in time for the holidays. Please have a look through my etsy shop. I also have a number of other crocheted hat styles I haven't had the time to post on etsy, but you will find on my Facebook page.

Crocheted beanie with visor. Can be made in nearly any color. I will happily add a crocheted flower too!
My best seller...

Large sized Diaper Clutch - fully lined, inside pocket, snap closure, strap with snap.


There are so many awesome etsy shops out there... handmade all the way! :)

Head's Up!

Kael & Kaed Review & GIVEAWAY!

Like any Mom, I love things that are not only super functional, but also stylish! Enter Kael & Kaed – handmade things for baby, toddler and home. Kael & Kaed is a Canadian company run and owned by a fab Mom named Tasha. Tasha and her shop offer a number of products including this Eco-Friendly Bamboo Cotton Tie Dyed shirt.

The leash is approximately 30 inches long (before doing up any of the snaps). One end attaches to your stroller or car seat while the other end has two loop sizes to accommodate what you need to attach.

Wordless Wednesday

Well I've been pretty "wordless" these last few weeks... have I mentioned it's hard to steal away blog time now that I'm back to work?!

Anyway, here are my girls prepping the Halloween bags for their friends at day care and school... no actual 'treats' in these bags. With allergies and such nowadays it's just not a good idea :)
Love these smiles!
