model shoot

I love what I do, I love babies and kids. I'd like to share some of the new pictures from a model shoot of my little monster baby set. These turned out fabulous and photographer's work is great! Thanks to Beemer Photography and little Ethan for wonderful pictures.
This one is my favorite - it made me smile, which is what I enjoy most about the sets I make - making people smile:

New items for the shop

I have been working on some new items for my etsy shop. I have been making binky clips since I started 2 Sprouts but never had time to photograph them. I was finally able to get some done.

I also started sewing some lovie blankets as a way to use up some of my larger scrap pieces.


There's more to come in the next few weeks!

Booth Display

I'm a little late in sharing this, I have been working hard on creating an inviting craft show display booth. Between garage sales, good will, and dumpster diving I have picked up several really great pieces. It's still a work in progress but I think it's coming along nicely. Here are some pics from my last show at the Grandview Lazy Dayz of Summer Festival.




One thing I am going to be working on before my next show is the free spinner that I got for my headbands - I'm thinking of cutting it down and covering it with fabric or ribbon:

Trash to Display Treasure

One Man's trash is another's treasure - I love that saying and for me it's so true. I have been on the look out for new display pieces but I have to keep a very low budget. I love dumpster diving, garage sales,goodwill, and auctions. Thankfully I really like an eclectic look to my booth. My sister found this little gem at a garage sale for .25!

I loved it at first glance - but it needed a bit of sprucing up before I could use it. My darling husband helped out by removing the trims and painting it my favorite apple green. Here is the carriage mid way with the first coat of paint.

This was MUCH, MUCH better. After a second coat of paint is was ready to go as a display piece - here it is in it's final glory - I love how it turned out!
