I bought these darling 'newborn booties' for Josiah before he was born from the lovely Natalie of My Claire Rose! He wore them home from hospital (they still fit him). They are gorgeous and soft, made from wool and bamboo. He also wore them to our friend's wedding in Brisbane last month... for a little while anyway, it wasn't really bootie weather - but looked ever so cute.
For the same wedding, I purchased a lovely burp cloth too as I didn't want to drag around the daggy white nappies we use at home! This cloth was a great width for catching puke and looked very stylish! Nat has some really lovely things in her shop and for GREAT prices! Even though I can sew and could have whipped up a burp cloth of my own I really appreciate being able to purchase well made items I don't have time to make myself. I don't think I really truly appreciated buying 'handmade' from other clever folk until I started doing the Handmade Market and running my own online stores!
They a re just divine little booties, gorgeous! And how nice is that burp cloth, much nicer than the gruppy cloth nappy hanging over the shoulder..
ReplyDeleteOh darling Ros, i just HAD to buy another (ok, so it's like my 20th) hair accessory from Shop Handmade by Grace Designs today, for my 3rd girl of course. I just peeled it off her head, she wore it to bed. It's the cream & dusy pink with stamens, too pretty & i couldn't let anyone else have it but one of my girls. She sends her thanks, love Posie
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting this Ros. I'm so glad you liked them. I will have to get making more burp cloths, they have been more popular than I thought they would.
