Etsy Finds Friday

This week I have gathered together a bounty of handmade cuteness for babies, little ones, and even a few treats for Mama (I couldn’t resist!), so grab a cup of coffee and enjoy…

1.Almost Sunday Designs makes so many beautiful things it really is worth checking out their whole shop. Here are a few of my favorites…

The Butterfly Mobile ($45) is just so lovely (I wouldn’t even mind hanging it over my desk!)

And they will customize the Pear Tree Wall Art ($35) to include your photos, message, and poem.

2.Who can resist a totally adorable party dress? Not me! This one ($45) is hand sewn from a beautiful Denyse Schmidt fabric.

3.How about some cuddly little creatures straight from the Blue Mountains of Australia? Leura of Blu’bies creates all manner of Australian animals. Pictured here is Georgia the Yellow-Bellied Glider ($32) – but if Georgia isn’t quite your cup of tea, maybe you would prefer Peta Pygmy Possum? Or Quinny the Spotted Quoll? Or maybe Billy Boobook or Ethel Echidna? Each one comes with a little card with information about the animal’s “character, favorite food, and habitat”.

4.What is it about babies in little pea pods? They’re just too cute! These “Noonies” from Lala’s Pequenos are lined with a super-snuggly material on the inside.

Organic Newborn “Noonie” ($62)

Fuscia “Noonie” ($45)

5.My dear friend Katy introduced me to the many benefits of putting some leg warmers on your girl: 1)They protect her little knees when she’s wearing a dress 2)It is much easier to change diapers with leg warmers on than if she were wearing tights or leggings 3)They are easy to slip on and off as she gets too hot/too cold. This cosy knitted pair ($32) is from Baruch’s Lullaby.
