New Blog

I no longer use this blog, instead I'm going to be posting all my happens on my Noggins blog. It's http://nogginsbeanies.com. Go there to see some awesome new adult hats for Fall 2009.

Buried Treasury

Come dig for buried treasure at this new blog I found the other day.

The blog was setup by Timothy Adams Designs and laid out in a unique way for readers to "dig" (or search) for buried treasure. Etsy sellers can choose to be added to the blog and will get an Etsy mini in the correct category featuring their work. The blog gets thousands of hits a day and is a great way to get some exposure for your shop.

Customer Pics

I got two customer appreciation pics this week. The first is of the Penelope style beanie (the first design for the Noggins beanies named after my daughter, Penelope- just a little fact) on the adorable Marissa who won the beanie giveaway. The second is of the Skullie style beanie on adorable little Rebecca.

Thanks for the photos and for all your support!

Reomama

I'm excited to be this month's Designer of the Month! I have an almost 10 month old daughter and have been a stay-at-home-mom since she was born. With a cute baby to dress and a little free time during her naps, I started making dresses and bows for her to wear which led me to start reomama. As this was going on, I was talking to friends who had little boys and heard them complaining about how many cute things there are out there for girls and how few things there were for boys. So, although I've found they're right and that there's less "boy" fabric out there, I have recently begun making pants and rompers for boys with fabric I'd want to put on a son of my own. Below are a few items for sale now at Nelly's Design and Consign. While you're browsing, if you see something you like but it's not the right fabric, head on over to Nelly's to view the selections I have. Or, you can always send in an email with an idea for a custom order.Cowboy Pant - This is the basic pant style for little boys. It's an elastic waist for comfort with a fun cargo pocket on one leg for all those things boys find to carry.Halter Dress - This dress started it all. I also make it as a halter top with capri pants.

Flower Clip - This orange flower clip is one of several new flower clips I'm putting on Nelly's. It's large so its cute on toddlers or as an over-sized flower on babies. All my flower clips come with stretchy nylon headbands so your baby can wear clips even if she's bald, like mine. :)

The Rebecca Dress - This is a sneak peek of the next style I'm putting on Nelly's, so keep an eye out for it! Here's a bit of trivia about this dress style: I named it after my daughter because I made the first one out of left-over fabric from her baby quilt!

Customer Appreciation Pics

Check out the great new designers we have, Tabula Rasa with some really cool vinyl art for your walls and Starmek Creations with some fun hand crafted jewelry.

I have to say it's so much fun designing beanies and I love seeing them on adorable little kids. Here's a custom beanie I did for a friend.

And the Winner is...

MARISSA!

Thanks for all those who participated in our little bad hair day contest. Marissa won and will recieve a Noggins beanie of her (or rather her mom's) choice.

We've added a new style beanie with a brim. For those of you that haven't seen it, it's pretty darn cute and light weight for these cool spring evenings. Also check out the new outfits Reomama has added to her collection. There's even an adorable pair of pants for boys.
