I'm Finally Back!!!

I can't believe I ignored my Blog for over a year! My Blog was ignored with good reason though.....my Etsy Shop exploded and has taken up a good part of my life. I also take care of my 3 1/2 year old granddaughter, Olivia, while her parents work which also takes up a good portion of my life. My husband also probably feels a bit neglected, poor guy watches me crochet daily and doesn't complain a bit!

 

I promised myself that I would get my Blog up and running again for 2012 and I'm proud that I've reached that goal ahead of schedule!!! YAY me!!!! My next goal is to post on my Blog weekly. I'll be offering free patterns, previews of new creations, pictures of my creations in use, deals on new creations and Coupon Codes along with life's daily trials and tribulations.

 

With that said I want to share a picture of one of my creations in use. I was totally blown away by this picture! This set was initially a custom order but once I finished it I decided I needed to put it in my Shop.  Since my photography skills are horrible (to say the least!) I didn't know if it would sell with the pictures I took myself.  Low and behold a talented photographer purchased the set and created this beautiful image! I was ecstatic that I was able to use this image in my Shop. A HUGE thank you goes out to Barefoot Photography by Tina Doane.    Check out Tina's Facebook Page if you want to see some amazing images.  Her images are creative and absolutely beautiful!!!

 

 

All Good Things Must Come To An End.....

Vacation is officially over and we're home. No matter how much fun you have on vacation it's wonderful to come home. I may have been on vacation but I was still busy creating! I'll be taking pictures and posting pics here and on FB plus I'll be adding my creations to my shop.

Newborn Hammocks

Newborn Hammocks are now available in my Etsy Shop. I'll be offering two styles of Hammocks; one will be made of a Chunky Yarn and the other will be made with Cotton Yarn plus they'll be available in a variety of colors. These Hammocks will hold newborns easily and older babies depending on their size. The doll pictured in the Hammock is the size of a newborn.

I just LOVE custom orders!

I'm absolutely thrilled when I get a great custom order like the one I shipped this week. I loved being able to work with bright colors and have some fun creating great props. School will be over soon which means my granddaughter won't be spending as much time with me. Although I'll miss spending my days with her it will allow me more time to create.

New Creations that I LOVE!!

These great cotton diaper covers are available in my Etsy Shop with a low introductory price of $25.00 for the set. I made these diaper covers less bulky than my previous cotton covers and I'm offering them in sets that include a color for a newborn boy and girl. Keep an eye out for additional sets in my Etsy Shop. If you'd like a specific color all you need to do is request it.


I love Robin's Egg Blue and I LOVE this set.

This wonderful Elf hat hasn't been listed in my Etsy Shop yet but it'll be there soon!

Navy Blue, one of my favorite colors!

I've been working on some new creations for my Etsy Shop the past few weeks. I've begun adding photo props to my Shop which are high quality yet reasonably priced. I love the look of a diaper cover on a precious little newborn. The diaper covers in my shop cover a newborn's diaper perfectly even at the legs plus the cover is adjustable. Diaper covers are wonderful as photo props and they're great for those hot months when a t-shirt and a diaper cover would be perfect. Most diaper covers that I'll be adding to my shop will have a matching hat and I will be adding money saving photo prop sets to my shop over the next several days. I love Navy Blue, it's such a crisp color against a light background.

The flower on this hat is new to my Shop. This flower has two sets of petals, one behind the other and is sewn onto the hat. The beanie is a trendy little shell beanie that is absolutely stunning for the fall and winter. This hat matches the Navy Blue Diaper Cover and is a great matching set. Later this week I'll be adding a matching Elf Hat.

I absolutely adore Robin's Egg Blue for little girls. This hat is made from super soft cotton yarn and has an adorable double pink flower.

I'm offering a Sale on this package in my Etsy Shop, Creative Dragonfly.

This adorable Navy Blue Cocoon is great as a photo prop for little boys.
