A Few New Designs--pre-Etsy preview!

I've been adding a few more designs to my repertoire with headbands.  I still have all of the original styles available (posy, dahlia, circle, feather, tulip, abstract, and the relatively new abstract rose), but am thinking of making a few more options for my Etsy page.

What do you think of these?

Pansy--a six-petaled flower design (well, three in the middle)

Overlapping circles

Quatrefoil (a four-leaf flower design)

These color combos were inspired by the fall Tea Collection dresses that Mamababy Boutique has in stock right now, but custom orders are available in any color combination from the following chart:

Email me at sewbabycrafts at gmail dot com for custom orders--mention this post (Etsy Preview), and your order is only $10 plus shipping (usually about $1.50).

Fun custom order!

A friend of mine asked me to make headbands for her sister-in-law and her two daughters, one pre-teen and one 3-year-old.  She wanted the headbands to coordinate, but be appropriate for the different ages, and incorporate the ladies' favorite colors (blue and green for all three, plus pink for the littlest).  I had fun playing around with colors and designs, and here's what I came up with:

I've been thinking about trying the three-circle design for a while now, and I LOVE how it came out--I'm definitely making one of these for Iris (and maybe for myself!)

Branching Out--Headbands now available in Cannon Beach, OR

My parents live part-time in Cannon Beach, Oregon, and every time we visit, my mom and I have to make time for a stop at Dena's Shop on the Corner! I have loved this boutique for years (even before they were in their current location!)  Dena and the rest of the staff are so warm and helpful, the clothes and accessories are fabulous, and they have a darling baby section full of great clothes, books, and stuffed animals.  So I am really excited to introduce my headbands into the store!  I custom-made my headbands for Dena's Shop based on the current inventory of Zutano colors and styles, so you can put a whole outfit together for your little one (and don't forget to pick something up for yourself while you're there!)

And as long as you're there, don't miss my mom's work (Deb Steele silver jewelry) and my mother-in-law's work (Ann Cavanaugh fused glass) at the Dragonfire Art Gallery in the same shopping complex!

New Headbands!

I've been busy getting my headbands ready for some custom orders, and a new store is in the works!  I'll let you know when and where you can find my headbands, and in the meantime, here's a look at what I've been working on!  Some new designs, some new takes on old favorites, and some just plain old favorites!

My little model is so patient with all the photos :)

Newborn Photos!

The lovely Emily G has been using my headbands in some of her newborn shoots!  She is so talented--I'm happy to be a part of these sweet photos!

Awwww!

Another Place to buy SewBaby Crafts Headbands!

Hi!  I'm excited to announce that you can now purchase my headbands at Daisies and Dinos, the kids resale and consignment store that is part of Portland Green Parenting's The Warehouse in SE Portland's Brooklyn neighborhood.  The Warehouse is home not only to Daisies and Dinos, but also The Warehouse Cafe (a great spot that hosts local kids musicians during the day--Professor Banjo, Van Oodles, Miss Tyleena and more!) and Know Thy Food, a food co-op.  So if you're there for one of the other great services they offer, drop in to Daisies and Dinos and look for my display!

What a great model!

Look for these designs and more!
