Esther Purse

After recognizing a recurring demand for little-girl purses at craft fairs, I finally designed a purse specifically designed for little girls.



Here it is....named after the little girl who I have been nannying for for the past 20 months, Esther.


This purse is machine washable, and one of a kind.


The Esther sells for $12. You can purchase one here or here, or at the Art Court in Beaverton this weekend!

Sarah




The Sarah is a bag that I have named after the mother of the mother of the children who I nanny for (is that clear?) She was so nice to send me some of her used clothing all the way from Chicago that I decided that I just had to name a purse after her.

The purse is inspired by a discussion that I had with two women at the Beaverton Farmer's Market (aka Art Court) regarding walking bags; they said that the Betsy was too small, but that they liked the concept. They wanted a long-strap purse that would be large enough to hold a cell phone and keys and other basic, small things that one might take on a walk.

So the Sarah, essentially, is a walking purse; or actually it can also be a going-out purse. I just used one last week when I went to 80s night at Lolas! The PERFECT purse for dancing the night away.

$15, buy one Here, or here.

Blankie for Monkey


Here's a blankie and a pillow that I just finished making with the little girl who I nanny for. (yes I am just going to go ahead and end that sentence with a conjunction)

We have been working on it for the past few months. In addition to teaching her some fine motor skills, her monkey is FINALLY going to be warm and comfortable at night!!!
