Imagining a white christmas

Yesterday's Holiday craft was to make ornaments, and my daughter decided to imagine herself in a snowglobe. She painted a wooden doll, and pasted it to a sheet of felt which we pasted to the bottom of the clear ball (plastic ball ornaments available at Michaels). We snipped a bit of the Christmas tree and added that in. Painted snow on the outside - isn't it pretty!?

Check out these really cool ball ornaments made by Pink and Green Mama.

Dressing up

With our son in his last year of Elementary School, I was happy he wanted a homemade costume. This cool snake fabric was from Joanns. It was a lot of work, but he's so happy with the result! Our daughter is a poodle. This one was really easy and inexpensive to make. Highly recommend!

ABC Kids 2012

Last week we attended ABC kids in Louisville, KY. We took our kids out of school for a week, and went as a family. The drive there was absolutely gorgeous, and we drooled over the fall colours, which we never get to see living in Florida. Louisville was really cute, we loved it! Our kids were 'at work' the whole week, and were amazing little booth helpers. They helped decorate the booth, gave out freebies, and did product demonstrations. It was a full and fun week, and we are happy to be home.

Wee House of Cards

If you have some Wee Gallery Cards at home, and your baby is a toddler, it might be time to convert them into some Wee building cards. Inspired by the classic Eames House of Cards, these are a version for younger children, as they are made from sturdier card.

Spice up your Halloween decor with this sweet download. Click on the black and white picture (the middle one), download and print, cut out the owl and moon, and stick it to the inside of your lamp shade (I used double sided tape). When the lamp is on, Mr Owl will show up, and he will disappear when the light is off. Spooooky!

Try it by going the the freebies page on our site, download the file, print on card, and assemble. Let us know what you think!

Organic Cloud Baby Blankets

We are so excited to show our latest product at the New York International Gift Show. 

The Cloud Blanket from Wee Gallery is made in traditional ‘dohar’ style originating in North India. It has a layer of printed fabric sandwiched between two unprinted layers of fine muslin, so that baby’s soft skin is untouched by printed inks. Described as ‘woven air’ and ‘wonder gossamer’, this fine and delicate cotton muslin has been loomed in India since ancient times, and was once exclusive to royalty! It is said that the Emperor was displeased by the trasnparency of the new sari worn by his daughter, even though she was wrapped in six layers of the finest muslin! 

To win one of these lovelies, leave a comment on this post, and when we get back we will pick a winner. Thanks for playing!

Last Minute Easter Download

We are making Easter bunnies this Saturday. I know, last minute, but that has somehow become our way! I thought we'd share anyway, so if you'd like to print out these bunny hug cards, and either attach them to a lollipop, or to a popsicle stick for a little puppet, click on the black and white bunny picture at the bottom of this post, print on card, and cut out.
