Felted, Crocheted Animals

Prepare yourself for some intense cuteness... we thought we'd indulge ourselves a little for Valentine's Day. We have a nostalgic weakness for crocheted stuffed animals. But then, the felted ones are a double-whammy of adorability (pardon the new word.)

Oh heavens! So cute! We have to share our Beaver Love for Valentine's Day.

A chenile duckie! We can't decide which is our favorite.  But how great are these for a baby shower, or for a new arrival?

MillieFern on Etsy made these— they are some of the best we've seen.  And of course, I bet you might find or commission a sock monkey.

Yarn wrapped Monograms

If you are looking for inexpensive baby or wedding decor project, look no further than this yarn wrapped monogram from Evie S. - such a cute idea! We can easily see a couple of these spelling out a baby's name or with an ampersand as a fun wedding element...the possibilities are endless! This project reminds us of our yarn wrapped bottles from our new book, Handmade Weddings!
