Felted Slippers

 I'm so excited to share--I have my first sale to a happy customer! My friend Erika commissioned me to make her a pair of warm slippers to keep her feet happy while walking around on her wood floors at home. And they came out just perfect! She called me today to let me know she received them.

 These slippers are knitted with an alpaca boucle yarn, then felted to make them nice and soft. The alpaca makes them warm, but not heavy at all; in fact they are light & airy. Once they are felted the crocheted flower accent is added to give them just a little distinction. 


 For any viewers who would like a pair to call their own, I'd be happy to custom-make you some as well. I can find you any color or color combination you'd like, and embellish (or not) however you wish. For example, if you'd like a ribbon accent instead of the flower, no problem. Or no decoration at all--simply au naturale. They can be funky, subdued, outrageous, elegant, or anything in between.

Email me--everyday_joy@verizon.net--if you'd like to call a pair your own, or use the "Buy Now" button below and include special instructions to the seller to tell me your color preferences. Also I will need your shoe size, as well as the measurement from heel to toe to make sure I get these just right during the felting process.

Shipping cost is $5.95.

Tiny Teddy

For Valentine's Day, why not give a gift hand-made with love? Tiny Teddy sits 5 inches tall and his hand-stitched grin is sure to capture your heart! 

Made from 100% acrylic yarn. Tiny Teddy can be washed and will not shrink, but because of the hand-stitching and applique I would recommend spot clean only.

Price: $8.00 USD
S&H: $1.50 (for one Teddy; multiple orders, see * below)

Please choose quantity:

1- $8.00 2- $16.00 3- $24.00 4- $32.00

As of right now I only have one Tiny Teddy made up, but he is a quick project and can be made in about a day. Feel free to order as many as you like! Since Tiny Teddy is hand-made, each one will vary slightly from the photo, but will very, very similar. Also, I would like to offer the option of special-requesting Tiny Teddy in a different color or with different accessories. Please email me if you would like to request this.


 * Ordering multiple Teddies:

Two Teddies: S&H still $1.50
Three or four Teddies: $3.50
Five or more Teddies: $5.50

I Heart You

Love is definitely in the air this month...
I think Valentine's Day is a fun holiday, what with all the pinks and reds and hearts floating around. (What can I say? I am a girly girl deep down, after all.)
Guys may see Valentine's Day roll around and cringe, but us girls love being pampered. And any excuse to expect a cute teddy bear or bouquet of pretty flowers is good, right? It doesn't hurt to have an reason to farm out the kids for a couple of hours and go on a date, either.
Keep an eye on my home page, and pretty soon you'll be seeing red!
