Love Baby Kisses

Everyone eventually must face it. The time of your life when everyone around you jumps on the baby train. Naturally, with babies come showers, ( lots and lots of showers) which equals lots of itty bitty gifts. While searching for the perfect gifts for little tikes, I found some of the worlds cutest kid stuff from Kristen at Love Baby Kisses. I especially like "hootie" the owl. Chiggity check it out.

Etsy Treasury

Okay, so just for funzies, I created an Etsy treasury called "Hot in Houston". Not the most creative name, but c'mon I was in a hurry. It is made up of some of my favorite pieces created by our wondeful local artists. Go see the treasury and tell me which one is your favorite!

Mulberry Street

I'm not sure why I've had an obsession with pink lately, but oh how I adore this ultra-feminine pom pom scarf by Mulberry Street. I'm also completely in love with her line of fingerless gloves. What a perfect way to keep your mitts warm while you type, sketch, paint, etc. Mulberry Street offers lots of crocheted beauties at extremely reasonable prices. Go check it out!

One Eyed,One Horned, Crocheted People Eater

This little creature put me in my happy place today. Otis the one eyed monster is just one of the many wonderfully kooky creations by Susan at Barking Dog Designs. If you need a one-of-a-kind gift for a little one this holiday season, be sure to visit her Etsy page and support our local artisans!
