Hoots and Turkey's, Oh my!

Let me begin with I AM SO SORRY for bing M.I.A for some time now. This little thing called LIFE has been keeping me busy. And I'll be honest, there are so many of you crafty moms out there, I have gotten a little overwhelmed. I just didn't know who to write about next...and well it turned into me not writing at all. That is not fair to anyone, especially these shops I am so excited to find and I want all of YOU to know about. So with that.... lets begin, again!

There are lots of new shops I have discovered, but today I'm going to focus on HALLOWEEN and THANKSGIVING ensembles. So its an all-skate of new and previously featured shops. A win-win I say.

One of my personal faves Bella Claire Baby has done some amazing pieces for these two holidays. There's bloomers, onsies, bows and leggins, oh my!! If only I still had a chunky baby to put these adorable outfits on! And for the matchting tutus, Hannah's Tutus!






Now Little Wellies has taken the combo of costume meets outfit- here she has created these adorbale outfits to resemble disney princesses...to just wear to town or a playdate. So many choices!! I think Belle is my favorite.




So what to wear if your a mom?!.... Evy's Tree Pumpkin Spice Barilla OF COURSE!!! I'm not sure why I haven't snagged this one up yet...and there's a mini too...so you can be matchy-match.



LaMonique Boutiqe has been whipping up some fun dresses, great for school days!



And (new shoppe) Vintage Baby & Kids has sewn some adorable rompers for Hallow's eve, how cute would this be with little kitty ears...or some fabulous head band?!


Speaking of hair accessories....can't leave that out! Giddy up and Grow has you all hooked up!





And continuing on the accessories theme, check out the necklaces from MiaMoo! she has everything! Some go with the disney outfits from Little Wellies...and others just for FALL.



And if you REALLY want to flashy, fabulous pieces...you gotta check out Fabulousy Flamboyant (new shoppe) They are show stoppers!




Do you have enought choices?! He he he....so many, I know! I hope you find some things that you just LOVE!

Faith Works 4 You


Sure there are ruffles and sparkles and lacey details...but there is something to be said of retro. I stumbled upon this unique shop in my etsy surfing...and I'm so glad I did. Faith is bringing back some classics. Its the simple colors, fabrics and designs that make her pieces so adorable. Here is a blurp about Faith and her shop:

I love the 1960's and 1970's style clothing and have fun finding great styles to recreate in adorable retro style dresses with a bit of modern flair. My dresses are finished with a serger for a professional finish and durability. I love custom orders, so don't hesitate to leave me a comment or make a request. I am a one women shop, working hard to get orders out quickly and good quality work...

With Ellie starting kindergarten, I love looking at all the adorable things to get for her "school" wardrobe. And since she is in this "I only want to wear a dress" phase...Faith's shop is a good place to have on my list. Here is a peak...because she has 40+ dresses in the shop...of what you will find when you visit her etsy site.

Brownies n Butterflies - custom gifts for babies & toddlers


Seems like this summer there have been  a lot of weddings and a lot of babies being born. With all of this gift giving, it sometimes can get hard to figure out what exactly to get. I love my gifts to always be original, special and just something the mom/bride will love. Well I have found a great new shop that will help for those gifts you need for baby showers.

This Ft. Worth, TX designer has this to say about her shop:
I am a stay-at-home mom that works from home in many different areas. Just like most of you, taking care of the home alone is a job but I also run an embroidery business out of the house. I love creating things and I love babies so the two go hand in hand. I created Brownies n Butterflies to provide affordable, personalized and practical gifts for moms and soon to be moms. I am a mother to 3 wonderful children, ages 10, 8 and 1. I am a wife to a wonderful husband of 10 years. I love creating the impossible and taking ideas from someone and creating it to their full expectations. I don't get to see them all but when I get to see the reaction when someone opens a Brownies n Butterflies creation, it bless' my heart.

I love that this shop has so many of the things moms need and that they are in adorable fabrics and designs. Sure you want to get the burp cloths and bibs, etc, but sometimes what the store has is just not cute at all. Well that's why you need to go to Brownies n Butterflies...because it will be fabulous. Here are some of my favorites...broken down into categories because there is a lot!

BURP CLOTHS & BIBS





BOPPY PILLOW COVERS




BLANKETS


GIFT SETS




She has so many gift set combinations, you must go look at them all. I know there will be something that will be perfect for the next baby gift you need to give. And if there isn't the exact combination of fabric, font, etc- just shoot her an email and she would love to customize any of her products for you.
