Name Help!

With the sun shining brightly these days (thank goodness!) I knew that my latest design needed to be a sun hat. The beanie however needs a name. I'm asking for our loyal readers to help me out! Please email your ideas to leenysbeanies@gmail.com . If I choose your name, then you will get one of the new hats for free! I will announce the winner Friday May 8th, by 8 p.m. Thank you for your help and happy naming!

Baby Boy Alert!

Allison heard some grumblings that her little boyfriends were sad there aren't as many cute, handmade things on Etsy for them as there are for girls. She told her mommy to do something about it. This is what I came up with! This mom is on a mission to make some cute boy items! Here are some modern boy shorts available here:

Earth Day Sneak Peek!

Happy Earth Day! We hope everyone is enjoying all the Earth Day inspired items we created as much as we loved creating them.

This set of Ooga Booga napkins comes from GladtobeMrsSRS:

These are cloth napkins made from Ooga Booga knit fabric backed with repurposed denim. They are the quintessential “jeans and a tee-shirt” pairing for the casual table. The napkins are approximately 9” x 14”, and are perfect for everyday use. They were sewn using the same five-thread safety stitch used in standard jeans construction.

You will be able to find these today at Artsy Fartsy Foo Foo

I'm learning to sew and my one of these for myself which I love. So when our team leader suggested I make one for earth day I jumped on it. See I made her one to and I think she likes it :). It has 6 pockets ranging in size, serged seams. But it is a oops the back trees are upside down :( But it's still very functional and cute. It has character :) I hope it helps someone organizer a overly filled purse. HAPPY EARTH DAY 2009!

LauraandLee's Beautiful Contribution, Sock Monkey Goes Green:

This sock monkey loves the Earth too! I have a love of sock monkeys
and have embraced many eco-friendly practices in my daily life. Those
two passions led me to create this design as a fun and whimsical way
to showcase you and your family's love of the Earth every day - not
just on Earth Day! The applique is created from my stash of 100%
cotton fabrics and appliqued on to an organic cotton t-shirt from
American Apparel. All of the threads are securely tied off to prevent
fraying. The shirt is custom made to fit your little one, available
in sizes from 3-6 months to 6 years.
