Beadle's Needles

Beadle's Needles The place to come to turn your pre-loved baby clothes into bespoke toys, quilts and decorative items. How to incorporate all three?

I am a mum of two very energetic boys with a degree in Textile Design, love of all things crafty and an aversion to throwing things away (especially those with high sentimental value such as my little one's impossibly tiny first sleep suits and outfits!). recycle baby's teeny tiny clothes into a fab new item that is highly personal and can be enjoyed long after the original garments have been outgrown.

Did you know when you receive your Beadle's Needles item, you will also find a tiny piece of original art in the form of a thank you card. Went with a springy theme this time πŸ™‚

Wow. This was a first. Seeing one of my handmade items on another FB group with ownership being claimed by a total random.
For those offering praise, thank you so much. Yes, it was very well received by my customer.
For those asking for the pattern, the bear is by Funky Friends Factory, the wings were my own addition.
I guess once my pictures and ideas are being nicked that means I've made it?
Bloody cheek though.

New thank you cards for my customers - a tiny piece of art in each completed order. Thank you so much for your support over the last 10ish years; each and every order has meant so much to me as a small business owner.

So much relief this morning! My lovely customer, who is State-side, messaged me this morning to say her order had arrived and she's super happy with her critters... so far so good right? Well. Yes, except for the absolute nightmare courier 'service' we had to go through.

As much as I hate to post anything negative I do feel a PSA is needed to warn against using a certain company for anything that is needed to be delivered in a way that is a) timely b) secure c) actually delivered.

Evri.

There's a reason they're often the cheapest option on price comparison sites. They say they're going to deliver/notify of delivery when it just hasn't happened (paid for the signed for option? Pfft means nothing). You have to search around to get any contact with anyone which culminates in them suggesting you, the PAYING customer, contact a third party who may or may not have the parcel and in the meantime contact the sender to see what they can do. As I am acting on behalf of my customer and am therefore the sender there is NOTHING I can, or should, do.

I am so relieved that finally, a week after being notified such, the parcel has ARRIVED at its intended destination. Wow, though. Just wow. Examples of πŸ’©service all round.

So please, pay a little more and save yourself a whole lot of heartache and avoid Evri like the plague it is.

Happy Friday, rant over (ish)

A better view of this sweetly sepia toned steggy, whose new owner left such a lovely review for (see previous post).
A limited colour palette can work so well and gives a different energy to one with lots of colours and prints (although I love both options!)

A sweet bear I made recently for a lovely lady who is retiring from the headship of a nearby school. Swipe to see the selection of clothes I used. I loved being able to get so many of the details in and Mrs O was super happy with her little reminder of her time at school.

Mousy Monday!
Have you seen this cute little critter? A great option if you only have 2 or 3 sleepsuits and the feet are ideal for adding personalised embroidery details!

A little 2 year throw back to this bunny. I absolutely loved the colour scheme chosen by my customer here and it came together in a really unique and stunning way!

Super pleased with this very special commission which included two designs which were new to me, a turtle and a cardinal bird! What do you think, should I add them to my Etsy store?

It was also fun to do a more masculine unicorn too!

Quote from customer: We got the stuffies today and absolutely LOVE them! The quality, fabrics -everything. They are perfect-THANK YOU!

This was the best part of all πŸ₯°

This little guy popped up on my memories this morning and I don't appear to have shared him?!
Back from the deep and distant past (Sept 2021) is this little school uniform steggy. I loved the mix of items my lovely customer sent me and school uniform provides such a good mix of textures and lots of details too!

A little Friday night roarsome... a really cute little chap who found his way home recently. Loving the earthy tones in the clothes sent for this one, hoping his new owners love him and his memories just as much!
