Celebrated my sweet niece turning ONE today, so she of course had to get her very own doll! Not sure how many more of these I’ll be making, so it was extra special to be able to gift her this one. 💗 Happy Birthday, sweet Hazel 🎂🎈

Sometimes all I want is to cook alone, but I know it’s so important that my girls learn to do it alongside me. I called in my youngest tonight to help me prep veggies for Change Your Life Chicken, and it was may the best decision I made all day. We donned our aprons, put on some jazz, and got to work. So grateful for these moments with my girls ❤️

A sweet little bow tie and headband set for a set of TWINS! Have I mentioned I love custom orders? 😍🎀

What’s that saying…you know you’re finally an adult once you have a bag full of bags? 😁 I gotta say - I like this version better than the plastic one. Unfold, shop, refold, stash for later, repeat! ♻️

New prints are in the shop! These are so fun - I think the Bramble Fields is my personal fave, with Wildwood in Blue a close second! And with these sturdier straps, they make market days and grocery shops a breeze! Grab them in the shop ✨

Last week was cold and rainy - not the best Spring weather, but the perfect mood for cozying up by the fire and working on a rag doll. This little lady was a baby shower order, and she was so fun to make! 💗

The rollables have gotten a little glow up ✨
I had been using cotton twill for the handles, and while they could certainly stand up to even the heavier loads, I didn’t love how they would get twisted over time. So I’ve changed them out for double-folded, triple-sewn handles in the same cotton fabric as each bag. I’ve been using them for a while now and I love how easy they are to grab and how evenly they distribute the load!
I’ve phased out most of the old patterns, but I’ve updated inventory with what’s still available in the new design. And new and fabrics arrive on THURSDAY, which means I should have them listed in the shop by next week. Lots of beautiful patterns and colors for Spring and Summer - I can’t wait for you to see them! Until then, you can find a new Banana Cream bag and a handful of previous patterns in my Etsy shop 💗

Well hey there! I’m waking up from my winter hibernation even later than in past years 🐻🫣
It’s always hard to know where to pick back up after an extended break from IG, so I’ll just leave a few updates here:
• Over the past few months, I’ve been reaching for my drawstring totes more and more. I’ve added these three to the shop today, and I think my favorite new addition is the exterior pockets. ✨ They are heavy duty, machine washable, and a cinch to pack up. (Literally!) I hope you will love them as much as I have been!
• I have made the difficult decision to move away from my website and focus entirely on Etsy. I had so much fun creating it, but it just was not worth the expense and added stress of managing inventory on two platforms, so Etsy it is! If you prefer local pickup, please message me on Etsy before ordering.
• I’m sure you’re hearing it from every small business, but prices on almost everything are up. While I am having to adjust accordingly, I am committed to working with only the best and most natural materials, and I will continue to use 100% cotton or linen (or a blend of the two) for all my products. You truly can feel the difference in a natural versus a synthetic fiber, and I firmly believe it is worth it! Please know I never raise prices arbitrarily - my goal is to always balance my customers’ budgets and my own compensation fairly, and that’s my commitment to you. 🤍
• Keep an eye out for new rollables (and with an upgrade! 👀) in the shop soon!

As always - thank you for being here and for all of your support. I love being able to create and share with all of you! 🤍

Another day, another apron ✨
Well, three aprons, to be exact. This chambray pinafore apron is available for immediate shipping, and the fabric is truly a dream! From the Essex yarn dyed collection, this chambray is lightweight and has a soft yet still textured hand. The color reminds me of a light winter’s frost - fitting for all the cozy baking this time of year. ☺️

And then I had to include a picture of a commission for a father/son apron set. These were made with 100% cotton canvas in charcoal - a much sturdier fabric, but one that gets softer with wear and washing. I had so much fun making these and hope they bring hours of memories in the kitchen! 🩶

Hey hey! I’ve been squirreled away in my sewing room for what feels like weeks now, happily making and sending out all your orders. Thank you doesn’t begin to cover how grateful I am for all of your support! I love that I get to make things for you all. ❤️
Aprons have been a HOT item this Christmas, and as we’re nearing the shipping deadline for Christmas arrival, I wanted to mention there are a handful of ready made aprons ready to ship out immediately! (Same day if you order before 2pm.)
This gray cotton/linen pinafore may be my favorite. It has just the right mix of softness and texture, and it elevates any run of the mill outfit. Grab this one (and a few more classics) in the shop! 🎄

Side note - if you are local and prefer to pick up, please message me and do not order through Etsy (they do not allow local pickup for Star Sellers.) THANK YOU! 😊⭐️

It’s rainy and cold here in PA today, Thanksgiving prep is in full swing, and I’ve finally pulled out the Christmas wrapping and mailers!🎄
Aprons have been selling like hot cakes, and I just had to share this sweet little children’s apron that just went out the door this morning. This was a custom order, and this yellow fabric is still one of my all-time favorites. There are a handful of adult aprons and a few Christmasy kids ones. And as always, feel free to message me if you’re looking to place a custom print! Let the holiday baking commence! 👩‍🍳🥧
