Let's just start with history...I am the mother to 4. My stepsons are 13 and 10 and my boy C is going to 5 in April, then comes the whole reason Sweet Baby K's exists...K just turned 3.
I've always had busy hands and a busy mind, I know I got the creative bug honestly, my mother is a wonderful seamstress and through the years always had some of kind of project from decorating cakes to sewing clothes for my sister and I.
Sweet Baby K's grew with the birth of my daughter, the only girl and I was aggrevated the headbands purchased at the department stores left horrible marks on her little newborn head. I really didn't grow the bow making bug until she was closing in on her first birthday and I wanted something to match. Taking inspirations from a fellow mommy I started learning. I sold a little to friends a family at first but I really found my love of doing different craft shows. I'm embarrassed to say the first couple you could tell I was totally green but I have come so far. I am a store in the midst of white tents. I offer a wide variety of items trying to have something for everyone that may venture in. Infant headbands and clippies, larger bows and novelty clippies, hair flowers, headbands both stretch and headbands woven with a variety of ribbon. I also have the crochet beanies that are the rage both for infants and the larger size that fit toddlers to adults. Last year I added Fancy Flip Flops and keychains.
Before: Utica Homecoming Festival 2008
Now: Centerburg Old Time Farming Festival September 2009
Then the last show of the season at Gambier Craft Sale 2009:
So what are my plans for this year? As I said in the beginning, like I need another project! I'm making crayon rolls and car keeper rolls, bottlecap necklaces, and pacific keepers. I was told many times last season, "I wish you carried something for boys". This did not fall on deaf ears! So I'm excited and have been practicing my sewing skills the last few weeks.
I am hoping every few days or once a week to let everyone know what I'm working on and expand from there!
