Awwww.  Look at baby Lyla, all snuggled up in her organic cotton snuggle set.  Big, big thanks to her mommy Mari and photographer Aubrey Stopa for sharing the photos.

There's something about a big baby yawn that is so so sweet.  She looks like a darling little bundle, that's for sure :)

If you are here reading this, I give you my biggest thanks for sticking with me during these sparse posting times.  I believe that better days are just ahead, and I look forward to catching back up with you all!

Now and Then

Old fashioned goodness with a modern twist!

Hopefully you can tell now that the new item is a baby bib!  I finally took the time to work out the details of the vision in my head, and I sure hope others find them as cute as I do.

~*~

~*~ 

First, I found and modified an antique bib pattern.  Then, I dug through my collection of vintage buttons to find just the right ones to complement each color.

It took me several tries to get the "finishing touch" just right.  What I attempted initially was just way too busy.  The bow is simple and sweet, which is exactly the look I was hoping to achieve. 

~*~

The details: Each bib body is made from silky soft 100% mercerized cotton. These can be machine washed in cold water on a gentle cycle, but handwashing is best. Lay flat to dry. Price: $20

I value your opinions, and would really appreciate hearing your thoughts, questions, and/or suggestions about the design, price, photos, etc. Thanks in advance!

It doesn't get much more precious, does it? Can you guess what this is?

It's an iron-on transfer! I couldn't leave it behind when I found it today. Trouble is, there's no date. So, while it looks vintage, I'm not sure that it is vintage. In any case, I am fascinated by the image, and by the fact that it purports to have a "baby fresh frangrance"! And do you know what else? The package says something about glitter, too! I have a surprise in store regarding this item, but for now, I ask... what would YOUR crafty goddess self make with this?
