Well folks, after a lot of pondering, planning and sewing….I finally got my Etsy store up and running. For those of you who are unfamiliar, Etsy is a website that allows people to sell stuff they have collected or made. I want to eventually sell dresses and other crafty kid stuff, but I figured I’d start small, with the simple yet extremely cute and functional burp cloths that I make. I make most of my own for Amelia using a cotton print and flannel lining and backing. I have some other fancy ones that I’ve gotten as gifts or have bought myself (for waaaaay more than I charge!), but I’ve found that the terry cloth ones just aren’t very soft on baby’s face, and the minky or chenille ones tend to get stiff when wet. So, I love the flannel. It’s cheap and when double-ply, is super absorbent and dries quickly, so I can use them all day. (Which seems gross, I know….but if you’re a parent of a baby fountain, like I am, you know what a pain it is to have to have 6-8 cloths on hand just to run to the store!)
Anywho…..here’s the link…..check it out. I just have a few posted right now (the ones that are currently made), but I have a ton more fabric, including some more girly prints that I intend on adding after the holidays. So keep me in mind for any gifts you might need and please pass the word on!
Here’s a sneak peak of the “Festival of Lights” package…check out my other ones!
