Something on the Bottom

Posted by Krysbrem 0 comments

So I brought my daughter her first ever nappy, she has never had a purchased MCN before as she has always worn what I have made and seconds at that. Poor second child :)

I brought her one of the new ERO Cute Tooshies that are available from Bubblebubs and OMG I want more. More importantly I want some fabric so I can make her a matching outfit to show off her nappy.



We got the top one, Red Abstract and I think I want more.

Now off to find some fabric to make to make a matching dress.

Market Update

Posted by Krysbrem 0 comments

What a day!

Yesterday saw us attend The George Street Festival in East Freo, a busy, fruitful & long day out in the wonderful WA sun. The festival was a great day out, from what I saw and our location was prefect right next to the play ground with all the activities for the children.

We introduced Bridget and she was only with us for a very short time, like 1 hour before she went home with a wonderful woman for her little person for Christmas.


Some pictures from the market of course.


Can't wait for next weekend at Mundaring, our last market for the year.

When things are quiet

Posted by Krysbrem 0 comments


It can only mean one of two things:
#1 I am busy sewing or shopping?
#2 I am running the house...

Guess what, yet again has won in this instance. That's right #1.

So, I know things have been quiet but since my holiday I am still having serious motivation issues, not to mention serious time to get everything that needs to be done issues. Add to this trying to become a healthier me, family and well life is getting in the way of my lovely blog. I promise I will try to come back in more regularly.

For the moment however her are some wonderful new fabrics that I have orders and should be hear very shortly.

Joel Dewberry Columbine Natural

Windham Traffic Jam Stripes Blue
Windham Traffic Jam Dots Green
Windham Merry Mushrooms Chocolate



Of course there are also all of the fabrics that have arrived in the last few weeks, bit you will have to wait a few more days for pictures of finished projects to see those ones.

A refreshing find

While at the markets on Sunday we had the pleasure of being next to Megan from Wildflower Botanicals and did she have some wonderful products on offer.

We did an amazing swap, still thing I got the better deal as mine is extremely enjoyable. I got the Fruit Insufions Selection and after trying two of blends so far I am totally in love. They smell amazing while brewing and taste even better while drinking them. Information from her site:
A boxed gift pack containing six 10-serve bags of each of the following blends: Sunset Divine, Autumn Spice, Lemon Delight, Pure Bliss, Heavenly Night, Mountain Mist

I can most certainly see this becoming a rather large addiction. On the upside she is just down the road from me so I do get to save on postage :)

Go on have a look, you will be able to see, although not smell for yourselves.

It's Tuesday and I can't wait....

I discovered this today over at ButtonsByLouLou and it is perfect because:

It is Tuesday and I can't wait for my headband from Hey Evangaline to arrive in the post! Jill is actually having an Etsy break at the moment but was lovely enough to still do an order for the above for me. Although now I think about it I think it will be an I can't wait to buy me somemore of these wonderful head pieces.

Shopping to give some Winter Cheer

Posted by Krysbrem 1 comments

Appears that someone, alright me,has been fabric shopping again.

Here is a little peek at what is on it's way to me in the not to distant future. To celebrate, upon arrival of this wonderful new fabric I will be running a competition here at Inspired by Children. Be sure to check back.

Small selection

I've managed to pick a few new fabrics that I am hoping to make some creations from before the markets on the 12th.

The first two are by far my favourite and can't wait to make something from them. And the cord I love, although my other half isn't overly impressed with it (but he doesn't understand the love of cord like me).

Hair

Posted by Krysbrem 0 comments

I am currently obessed with head bands, for me!

My hair is shoulder lenght, was longer until earlier this year when I had a chop (although would have liked it shorter, but husband & hairdresser won) and it is so easy to get out of the shower in the morning and pop on a band. I don't mean the bands that you wear as a child, but the full around the head, nice and thick band.

Currently I have a lacy white and two plain black so needed some more, some with something inspiring & interesting on them. Of course I have been doing a little finger shopping and thought I would share some with you all.

I saw these ones from Red Ruby Designs recently at Perth Upmarket, but ran out of time to go back and get myself one. They looked awesome and of course very different to what you would normally see instores.




I also found this next one, of course on Etsy. They have a heap of different patterns & colours available from WeezaWear




I think I am in love with this next one. It is actually a head wrap and would work perfectly for keeping hair out of your eyes when you are trying to work or to keep your head even warmer on those cool days, like today for example. It is from HeyEvangaline and even better is made here in Australia.




There are so many to chose from but I think at the moment the last one might actually make it out of my shopping cart and into the mail to me.

Who said Soap is boring

Posted by Krysbrem 2 comments



Doesn't this look like something you could eat? Something you want to eat? Something you wish you had in your hands right now TOO EAT.....

Well even if you did have it in your hands you wouldn't want to eat it as it is actually soap. That's right soap from Cake of Soap


The online shopping site is still a work in progress but they can be found at fabulous markets in Perth, at the store in Fremantle and I am sure you could email for a older order.... Or I might even go shopping if I am bribed nicely.



I have several different kinds, that have been given as presents and one is even from a Wedding (where all the woman got cake 'soap'). They smell amazing and look so good I haven't actually used them. We have some plain blocks, or circles from them also that J used to clean his hands and it is AMAZING stuff.



1st Wholesale ORDER

Posted by Krysbrem 3 comments

That's right Woddle Bots, or me got our first wholesale order for nappies this week :)

*bounce*

I am happy, excited and pleased to announce that as of this week Woddle Bots nappies will be available from Handle With Care Nappy & Baby Boutique. Handle With Care was established in 2008 as a joint venture between two stay at home mums, Heather & Alison. Here is a little bit about the woman from HWC:

In February 2008, we came up with our name. We had many options but Handle With Care nappy and baby boutique was the one we settled on – it felt right. I might note that many of the ideas come from email conversations we have had very late at night, I think these ideas come to us thanks to being up all night with our refluxing babies (at least something positive came from the hours of screaming and settling). Even to this day I still get emails from Alison at some very odd hours with some wonderful ideas including new products she has found!

Soon after we started to build up our stash of nappies we discovered that we needed to extend our product line. Nappies are fun, but there are so many other cute and stylish yet functional baby and children’s products that are just so hard to find, particularly in Canberra. So
this is when our little baby started to grow its arms and legs. We started to find a great list of products we wanted to stock…unfortunately we have had to keep a lid on most of these as we have had to ensure we can manage this business whilst keeping our families as our priority.

I’m not sure when Handle With Care was actually born, I suppose it was a culmination of all the thoughts, ideas and plans from that first day in January. Somehow we have managed to get to over 1 year old! We cannot believe how far Handle With Care has come in that time. Like most parents we never imagined at its conception what it might become when it ‘grew up’. We have nurtured it with many many hours of love of attention. We have had many dinners to discuss how it is travelling, what we can do to nurture it further and how we will ensure it continues growing with minimal growing pains.

We are passionate about what we are doing and absolutely love what Handle With Care offers us both and our customers. We have met so many wonderful customers who have come into our lives through Handle With Care and each one has touched our lives in one way or another. These customers have allowed us to not only sell them products but to become a part of their lives. We have seen many bellies grow and flourish into beautiful babies and have been so blessed to share this with people who we might otherwise never have known. Its without a doubt the customers we get to meet and know that makes the many hours we put into Handle With Care all worth it.


I look forward to a great relationship with this company, hopefully the first of many retails for Woddle Bots products.

Mothers Day Shopping

Posted by Krysbrem 0 comments

or finger shopping :)

It has been a while since I trailed the internet looking for fabulous items to purchase, read spend money on. So I had a few minutes and thought I would share some of my recent finds.

First some adorable little baby clips, definitely on the list to get some for Kyla in the Lavendar as they will work perfect with the little set that I made her a few months ago and that she wears all the time.

Chantilly Bowtique


Second, are these adorable hand crouchet mary jane shoes. I am in love they are so little and cute, just imagine how many pairs you could have in the cupboard :)


Third, something for those Mums as it is Mothers Day I thought it appropriate that I covert something unique for us.

Starry Designs



Fourth, again for those Mums out there who can never have enough bags. A stylish bag that would be perfect for any use. They have so many different designs here that you could have a bag for everyday of the week.

Peapods Designs



I do have a few more local finds up my sleeve but will keep them for another day, while the babies are sleeping I might just get myself a nice bowl of ice-cream and snuggle on the couch to enjoy the rest of what has been a very relaxing and uneventful Mothers Day.

Happy Mothers Day to every woman.
