Toys for Toddlers

These mamas know first hand what toys little ones like to play with. Each toy is handmade with love by these Fabulous Moms.

Felted Purple Wavy Ball by
Valeriesgallery

This ball is crocheted and felted with 100% wool and stuffed with polyfil. Any toddler will love playing with this ball that is inside friendly. It is just the right size for a wee one: 5 inches (12.5 cm) in diameter. Valerie made one of these for her grandson and it is his favorite toy. I have bought two of these felted balls for my son and he loves them too!

Children’s Soft Fabric Feel Me Book – Patchwork Ponies by Sparetime Crafts

This artist goes fabric shopping with her little girl. Her daughter loves to touch all the different fabric textures, and see all the colors. So she decided to make a book featuring all different textures. Each page features a different fabric texture feel to it. With plenty of different colors. Front and back cover, is vinyl over some cute patchwork ponies. There is corduroy, satin, velor, terry, fuzzy, and mesh, and more. Some have ribbon tags, and satin cording (which have all been double stitched.)

Bright Fabric Blocks by New England Quilter

My little guy is going through a phase where he throws everything. So, I made him some fabric blocks to play with. Now when I get hit in the head, it won't hurt quite so much! These fabric blocks are made with stimulating patterned cotton fabrics. Machine wash on gentle and air dry. Each block measures approximately 3 inches square. Great for teething babes.

BEST FATHER'S DAY PRESENT...or for another's day

Mother's day just passed, Father's day is on its way. It's so easy to buy present for mom, but not for dad. It's easy to find something unusual, cute for women, but we can't find it everyday, everywhere the right present for men. I lived in part of Switzerland where wine and cigar is part of our daily life. We like wine on general, but we love more a special wine on the special occasion especially if the wine came in a very beautiful way (wrapped beautifully), like this one:


or

The last two is reversible bag, meaning...you can use it as a wrap for either woman or man...should I call it unisex lol....ok...this is how it's looks like...

Something missing I guess....we need a beautiful accesories for the wine glasses, and my friend, Kelly, has it just what you need...gorgeous wine glasses charms which will make your wine more enjoyable.


Those are just some of her charms collections - flowers, purses and sunglasses. She made those by herself. to check more of her creation, visit her etsy shop. She does accept the custom made order, if you have some design that you would like to put it on your glass wine, send her a message, she will answer you promptly

Sometimes I just go Nuts!!

I just go nuts for the Peanuts!!

Ever since I was a little girl, I have loved Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the rest of the Peanuts Gang! Snoopy has always been my fave :)

I know that there are many other Snoopy and Peanuts Gang fans out there as well. So, I decided to make some Peanuts themed creations for My Etsy Shop.

This past Christmas, I sold many sets of Peanuts Squashed Snow Globe Tree Ornaments. I will be making more next Christmas! Then, for Easter, I made some plushie Peanuts Pals for my nephew - who is a huge Snoopy fan as well. He is three-years-old. I also made a set of Easter Peanuts Pals for my Etsy Shop as well.






I wanted to create a Peanuts Gang piece that was an everyday item and not just for the holidays. Well, I look at clocks everyday. So, I decided to make a Peanuts gang clock! I like this one, because it has a lot of the characters and is also very practical. This can also be found in my shop as well.


What's going to be the next Peanuts item for my shop? I love to sew and found some really cool Snoopy Fabric yesterday. I am thinking of using the fabric to make some tag blankies with a minky back. I also have been making fabric coiled baskets. I am also thinking of appliquéing some Snoopy's onto my baskets. Time will tell ...
