nursing covers

i have been busy in the basement again.  my latest projects-hooter hiders.  while these are not a new item for me, i don't think i have posted anything about them before.  they are about 26" x 41" with a 4" d ring strap and 32" adjustable strap, so you can make it fit your body and baby cant pull the cover off.  sewn between the straps is a 16" piece of boning that gives you clear view of what baby is doing.  this would also work great for a pumping mom (come on you know how silly you look) 

   $24

'ice' fishing

there hasnt been much for ice this year, but kids will love this 'ice' fishing.  wooden pole with magnetic 'hook' catches six fish.  now you can fish even when it's too cold, or windy outside.  i have heard it's also great in the car, and a fun way to learn. (paper clip on words, numbers or letters)

to help avoid fighting extra poles and fish are also available.  

$14 for pole & six fish, extra fish $1.50 & extra pole $2.

christmas gifts

now that chrsitmas is over i can share more of the gifts i made people for christmas.  my sister & sis in laws got necklaces, with either their kids names or their initials.  (the love was an exchange gift) i think they turned out pretty good. 

 i have also been into making hair flowers lately.  so the baby sitter, her daughter & a baby she watches got some.  they are pretty fun & fast to make.  to bad my daughter doesnt like to wear hers. 

i hope that everyone had a wonderful christmas, and a merry new year.

1st ornaments

these are some ornaments i did for my girlfriend's friend.  just too cute not to share.

two down, many to go

since my kids arent really old enough to run the computer very well, i think it's safe to say that i can post  a christmas gift that i made for them.  pillow pets!  z has been bugging me one for a LONG time.  but i refused to buy one, the velcro on the ones i have seen never keeps them in pet form.  saw this pattern and figured i could finally give in to his request.  the dark blue one is for him & the light is for p (she isnt all girl) 

i have many more gifts to make and may post as i complete but just not with a name since i some of my followers are the intended recepient.  if not i'll post after christmas. 

darm weather kept the craft show traffic low last weekend.  but thanks to all who did brave the weather.  congrats to betsy theisen, she is the winner of the santa countdown.  look for that in the mail.  have a merry christmas everyone!

christmas gift & craft show & ladies extravaganza

my next craft show is the christmas gift & craft show & ladies extravaganza on

saturday, december 3, 2011 at the westside community conference center located at 3534 s 108th  st, omaha (108th & grover - between center & lst).  this show will run from 9 am to 4 pm.  i will also be doing a giveaway at the craft show of this cute little guy.  if you would like to enter via blog or facebook just leave a comment on my blog with your email (so i can contact you if you win)  what your favorite thing about christmas is.  mine is now making lefse with my family-carrying on a norweigan tradition.  dont worry if you dont win, i do have about 3 more of these to sell.  my kids love changing the numbers everyday. 

soothies paci clips

i have always felt for the moms whos babies like the soothies paci's.  NO ONE makes a paci clip for them. until now.  by using a skinnier ribbon, you can thread it thru the holes on the paci.  problem solved.  this is just one of the many that i have so let me know if you need one. 

and i do have regular paci clips and mam converters for mam babies.  $3 for any paci clip and 50c for a mam converter.  and when baby is done using paci's (or didnt take one) you can always use it for light toys to avoid the pick up game. 

here is the info on my next craft show.  i will be at the hope presbyterian church holiday botuque on satruday november 12 from 10 am-4 pm.  the church's address is 5220 s 159 ave (159th & q)  this is a home based business as well as craft show.  hope to see you there.
