Handmade Halloween Costumes? YES!

Here is my latest listing, a handmade crochet Pumpkin Hat.  This hat is made of 100% cotton yarn, and is made to order, so you choose the size (from infant to adult).  Are you an adult who would like to celebrate the holiday but are a little too self conscious to dress in full costume?  This is a great alternative!  Moms, wouldn't this be cute with orange clothes, as an inexpensive Halloween costume?  This would also be perfect for fall photos!  To see this hat, or other great alternatives for Halloween and the holidays, or just everyday, see the hat section of my shop here:  Custom Hats by suefern643

Blue Baby Owl Hat in Cotton

Here is my latest listing, Blue Baby Owl Hat in Cotton, which I created for little Derek, my special buddy from Pittsburgh.  You may remember Derek from my previous posts.  He's a strong guy who has fought to survive and is THRIVING.  He just had his first birthday and he recently pulled himself to a standing position for the first time ever!  His mom, Amy is so wonderful about keeping me updated and sends me plenty of pictures of this adorable little angel and his handsome big brother, JR.  Amy wants to take Derek to the pumpkin patch and asked for an owl earflap hat for him to wear.  Thus, the owl hat was born.  I tweeked a pattern I found on the internet, to make it my own, and this is the result.  I think it's the cutest item I've EVER made!  I can't wait to see a picture of Derek in this hat!  Baby Owl Hat 

New Shop Section - Doll Clothes

Today, I added a new section to my shop, Doll Clothes!  I recently began creating accessories for a friend's daughters' American Girl doll, and I had so much fun that I wanted to share these with everyone else!

So, here's my first completed listing, Handmade Hat and Scarf Set for 18 inch Dolls.

Wouldn't this set make a wonderful stocking stuffer for your daughter or granddaughter?  This set can be made in any color/s.  These sets are so quick and easy to make that the turnaround time is lightning fast!  Want to buy this?  Click here:  Doll Clothes

I won a Treasury Challenge!

I'm so very flattered to have won the Like My Fanpage treasury challenge on Etsy this week!  The inspiration item was a set of beautiful fabric flowers, which could be used for many different craft purposes, including scrapbooking.  The treasury is titled, "Flaming Fall" because it is comprised of items in a burnt orange color.  I thank mydivineinspiration for choosing my treasury as the winner!  Next week, one of my shop items will be the feature for the treasury challenge. I'm so excited!  :-D

Here's the winning treasury!  Please check it out and show the included artists some love!
