Baby Girl Birth Announcement Blocks and Playing Around With Hand-Crocheted Flowers

Blog land is just the tops for sparking creativity - that is planting creative seeds.  I came upon a tutorial to crochet these fun little flowers at one of my FAVORITE blogs to visit:  Little Birdie Secrets:

 I haven't crocheted in years - I mean like 25 years..... but these were easy, peasy!    Of course, after seeing the cute cards that Little Birdie Secrets made with her mini flowers, my wheels started spinning.  Yes, they would be perfect for my new Baby girl announcement blocks:

 Don't they just add that little spark?  I love them!

 Then I got to thinking......hey these would be great to interchange on little girl shoes!  Just sew a bottom to the top of the shoe and then you can interchange the flower to match their outfit - TOO FUN!

 They even look cute on a little girl's regular old sneaker!

Fun Custom Order - Matching Memory Album & Hair Bow Holder

I just love it when customers ask for something I haven't done yet, it just gets my creative juices flowing!  A customer ordered a Custom Girls Name Set  to match this bedding set:

And she asked me to doing a matching memory album with it:

 It has an acrylic cover.

 With lots of coordinating pages

 And pockets with tags for extra photos and memories

 Then this sweet customer really got my creative juices flowing.  She asked for a bow holder for the new little girl's first bows and barrettes:

You just clip the barrettes & bows to the ribbon.  How fun is that?
