A few new things

So I have been working on a few new things...along with teaching sweet third graders every day! Now that it's my Christmas break, I thought I would FINALLY upload some of the things I have been working on. First of all, shame on me for not getting a picture of the sweet little reindeer shirt I made BEFORE it was worn with love! Ha! It is now in the wash for the third time (the picture was taken before it was washed...lol) and has held together really well! There is a bow I attach to one of its antlers with a safety pin, but I had taken it off before throwing it in the washer. I was afraid that I'd forget to take a picture of it if I didn't go ahead and take one (dirty and all). :o)

**Letter shirt with embroidery $15**
**Personalized Hand Print $25 (hand print only, no frame)**
**Custom made shirts (like reindeer) $25**

Let's hear it for the boys!--a corduroy letter stitched with
thick embroidery thread

Hallie's Reindeer Shirt

Personalized Hand Embroidered Hand Prints
**Just send me your hand print of choice and I will
embroider it onto the fabric of your choice**

Removable turkey! My mom actually made this
one! It pins onto the shirt! :o)

HAND EMBROIDERED HAPPIES

Hand Embroidered Items
$15 each item--includes shirt and embroidery
$10 if you would like to provide the shirt

I usually hand embroider the names by writing with my print and then embroidering over it. However, if there is a specific font you would like, just let me know and I will try to create your perfect happy!

College T-shirt!

INITIAL HAPPIES

Initial Happies $15 (shirt)
Initial Happies $5 (small bag)

These happies are some of my favorites! Cute fabric on a perfectly happy shirt! Letter can be machine stitched, only fused, or hand stiched. I have many fabrics to choose from, or I can find the perfect fabric to create your perfect happy!



This is a "Ragamuffin" shirt--the fabric is on the back of the shirt and then the shirt is cut away to show the fun fabric after the letter is stitched onto the shirt.

CUSTOM HAPPIES

Creating the perfect announcement or invitation happy is one of my favorite things to do! I would love to create a Custom Happy just for your occasion! These are custom made announcements/invitations specific to your need and design. I do not use templates because I want them to be your perfect happy!

Custom Happy $40
I will e-mail you a high resolution image and you can get your copies printed at the business of your choice.










CLIP HAPPIES

Clip Happies $5

Hand made with your choice of ribbon. I have all the ribbons above and can get
any other color combo you might want to make your perfect happy!



RIBBON HAPPY

Ribbon Lovies $10
This Ribbon Happy is VERY loved (can you tell!?). I do not keep fleece material "in stock", but will try to find the material/colors you are looking for to create your perfect happy.

This Ribbon Happy measures 15 x 15 with 2 inch ribbons.

OTHER HAPPIES

Turkey Shirt for Thanksgiving

I made this shirt for my daughter to go see Elmo Live.

Very first post...

I really hope this is the first post of many! I love all things craft...my latest love is making Hallie personalized items. Before that it was making her pacifier clips because I just couldn't fine any that I loved...but I loved the ones I made! :o) I started this blog months ago with the hopes I could get it up and going. But school started, the paperwork came, and I just didn't have time to devote to it. I'm making it a top priority now, though! One of my favorite blogs, Kelly's Korner Blog, is hosting a link spectacular of "Show Us Your Home Business"...now, I don't really think of it as a home business, but a hobby. I make what I love. :o) So in two weeks, I will have all my favorite things on here for you to see...and maybe order if you like it. :o) I know Mommies aren't made of money (especially if you're staying home), so my items are always reasonably priced and ALWAYS made with love!

Come back soon to view my happies!
