Make Believe Treasury

Patti of LovesParis, a fellow TAGT member, included my crochet banana in her beautiful treasury.  Check it out!  It's Only Make Believe!  I'm so appreciative of the inclusion!  Thank you, Patti!

Another Happy Customer!

Here is a picture of an adorable little guy who loves his eggs!  This is Law, and he's 2, and his mommy ordered a set of my crochet eggs for him to play with.  These eggs are the perfect size for little hands and are a huge hit with the kiddos.  They are cotton, so they are safe for sensitive skin, and they have no small parts to pose a choking hazard.  I have another customer who ordered them for her baby's OT sessions, which help with his developmental delays and sensory issues.  They have been a HUGE success.  Another great idea for these eggs is a preschool classroom, for counting, or role playing.  They would also work well with a child's toy kitchen.  These eggs, as well as other safe toys, like a crochet banana, are available here in my shop:  Safe Handmade Toys

P.S.--How CLEAN are those floors?!  I could only DREAM of having such clean floors!  You go, Kristi!  :-D

How cool is this!?

While browsing Etsy, I often come across items that really "strike my fancy".  I save them under my favorites and go back and look at them every once in a while.  Today, this item really caught my attention.  It is a crochet pattern for a pirate ship! This is just so awesome that I had to share it!  If you crochet, you should check out this seller's entire store, because you will find some really unique patterns.  You can order this pattern by using this link.  http://www.etsy.com/listing/63121158/crochet-pattern-pirate-ship-toys-in-pdf

New Handmade Purse Set

Christmas is just around the corner, and I have made the perfect gift for that special little girl in your life.  She can be just like mommy (or grandma!) with her handmade purse set, complete with crochet wallet, lipstick, and keyring with two keys.  This purse can be made with button enclosures or with velcro (hook and loop) for added safety for children under 3 when buttons might pose a choking hazard.  The wallet has a top enclosure, with two functional pockets inside.  This is one of the cutest sets I've ever made!  It is made to order, so it can be customized in any color combination.  Also, it is machine washable and dryable!  Your little girl needs this set in her playroom!  It's available in my Etsy shop here:

I have been featured on someone else's blog!

My friend Janet Long, from Etsy, published a wonderful post about me.  I'm so humbled and so thankful for her kindness and support.  You should really check out her entire blog.  She's such an artist.  It's spectacular!

Here's the link to her post about little old me and the crochet items in my shop:

My Banana Won

For the first time ever, I entered some of my items in the handmade top 10 contest, and after several grueling days of tracking votes, my banana made it into the top 10 in the yellow category!  It's number 8, but I'm SO EXCITED!  YAY!
