Boots with the Furrrrrr.....

Remember when I said I bought lots of new crochet shoes patterns from one of my new favorite Etsy shops? Well, I finished another pair! These particular cuties are called Furylicious Booties (if you're interested on purchasing a pattern of your own, check out the link!). I made these as a custom order for a baby size 3-6 months. Question: Do you think these would be tacky on an adult because I am sorely tempted to make a pair for myself!

I don't have current plans to list any at the shop, but custom orders are always welcome!

Feeling Hoppy!

I have a customer who has an eye for all things cute! She has a dedicated pinterest board with my name on it for items she wants me to make (how cool is that?!). One of the items I am currently working on for her are a pair of 3 to 6 month furrylicious crocheted boots, but her pin lead me to this AWESOME etsy shop called Two Girls Patterns. Not only did I purchase the furrylicious boot pattern, but I also purchased 5 other ones... I just couldn't help myself their patterns are too cute and so reasonably priced!

Mind you, I will have to post the pic of the boots at a later date, but in the meantime I am getting into the Easter spirit. Here was my first practice pair at making these precious bunny slippers (pattern found here). I'll have a pair (or two) up at my etsy shop soon, but feel free to contact me if you're interested in a custom sized order for you or your little one!

Why Do a Custom Order?

I LOVE to do custom orders (I apologize if that phrase has become redundant in my blog posts!). After all, the items I make are done to my taste and though I must say I do have excellent taste (ha!) I understand that everyone is different and prefers different things: less/more flair, different fabric, etc. I also feature many more items on my blog than I do in my shop, so something you love from my blog may never be sold in my shop. Therefore, I can make any item that you see on my blog or in my Etsy shop specific to your tastes.... don't hesitate to ask!

Little Boy Bow Tie

This week was a "business milestone": my first Etsy order! As such, I wanted to throw in a little something extra for the customer. She informed me that the baby shoes she ordered were for the upcoming arrival of her first baby and they were going to be worn on the baby's first holiday, Thanksgiving. Since she didn't know if it would be a boy/girl (gotta love surprises!) I made a bow that could be worn as a bow tie for a boy or a headband for a girl. Here's some pics of my little man modeling the bow tie.... Let's just say he loved it and I did too. I'm thinking a Christmas bow tie is in his future :)
