Being a new mum can be a time full of so many mixed emotions; on one hand you are beaming with so much love for your new little baby and on the other hand you are also dead tired, probably aching all over, trying to heal and likely still quite emotional about the journey so far.
Every little bit of help goes a long way in the early days and a well-placed thoughtful gift can mean so much.
We have put together a list of gift ideas that we are sure will be a big hit –
Have you got a little one that needs ‘dressing up’ for Book Week soon? Do they know what they would like to dress up as? Are you stuck for ideas? Well lucky for us the Handmade Cooperative have a bunch of cool dress up ideas just in time for Book Week!
Have you been to a crafternoon before? What’s a crafternoon you might say? Well it’s a fun afternoon solely devoted to the joys of craft! And if you followed the #BrotherMakesMemories competition this Mother’s Day you might have seen that part of the grand prize package was a crafternnon party with me and Brother Australia. Yay!
So a few weekends back, armed with a pretty stash of fabrics and craft supplies I headed up to the Sunshine Coast in Queensland to host a special event for the competition grand prize winner Hannah.
Surrounded in colourful decorations and yummy food together with Hannah, her lovely Mum and 10 close friends we crafted up a storm and created beautiful Mini-Bunting.
Need some Knit fabrics for your next sewing project? How about these earthy toned fabrics from The Oz Material Girls.
There is just something extra special about hand made baby booties don’t you think. They are so tiny, soft and cute, and knowing that someone lovingly crafted them from scratch makes them all that extra special and unique.
