Woo-hoo!!! The shop is OPEN!

Yes, my friends... the shop is finally open! I am sitting here at my laptop just workin' away listing our items with such pride and joy swelling up in my heart. Our works of love... *sigh* growing up so fast... leaving the nest...

LOL!

Seriously, though. We HOPE they will "leave the nest" and find a home soon. See that BIG red square on the left that says "visit the shop"? Click it and check out our Etsy shop if you have a minute, of course it will only take a minute because I only have 2 items listed right now... hahaha. :) But don't worry, before the day is over I will have more. And then tomorrow there will be more. And so on... ;)

And if you REALLY love us (or even if you barely know us) please sign up for our fancy-schmancy E-mail Newsletter! I crafted up something really pretty and I'd love to share it with you... of course, you can always unsubscribe if you decide it's not something you want in your inbox. The Newsletter will be sent every couple of weeks and includes special offers only for subscribers. The form to sign up is on the left hand column of the blog.

Alrighty! Back to work for me! More tomorrow...

Handmade Cards!!!

Send some card love to your friends and family in one of these pretties:

Studded with little candy-like buttons and cheerful messages...

Birds and paper blooms... soooo sweet.

The cards come in assorted (coordinated) sets of three with envelopes. They're blank inside so you can write your own message. And there's nothing like sending a handmade card to show how much you really care. :)

Our Robots...

Robby the original robot toy

It all started with my son's 3rd birthday. Mom made him a priceless gift: a stuffed robot toy. Ben was SO into them (still is) and funny enough, robot toys are not the easiest to find. Right from the moment the robot was unwrapped he was adored by my son! It was the most adorable, loveable, quirky robot I'd ever seen... we affectionately named him Robby. Ben insisted on bringing him with us everywhere we went and slept with him, too. He was a hit at our house.

I was so inspired by that robot and many of my friends were asking where I got it. Mom and I sat down and refined his pattern to improve his design. We were having so much fun that we designed a few friends for him while we were at it!

Meet our new friends:

Webster

Spencer

Emerson

Davis

Gibson

Dulcy

These plush robot toys are so well crafted (mom is a perfectionist) and unique. Their colors are happy and fun. And their faces will certainly make you smile! They are made of soft minky and cotton fabrics. The eyes & dials/hearts are hand-cut felt and the mouths & antennae are ribbon... everything is double stitched with the utmost care. They are very durable bots! And very CUTE!!!
