<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This week I had a custom order for a pair of black shoes with pearl buttons and ribbon bows for a new baby girl! I knew that they would be cute cute from the beginning, but goodness! They are <i>super cute</i>!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Here are a few photos before I attached the ribbon to the front of the shoes.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">When you purchase this set, you receive all three hats at a discounted price! Each hat alone is $18. If you were to buy three hats I would give you a 10% discount off of your order, so the total for three hats would be $48.60. However, by purchasing my ready-made sets, you would get all three hats for $45. I will be working up other colors and animals as well, so watch for those as the weeks progress!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I currently have this set ready to ship, so if you are interested in purchasing it, you can follow my Etsy link<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/122949569/crochet-newborn-set-rts-free-shipping" target="_blank"> here</a>, or send me an e-mail at casscrochetcreations@yahoo.com.

This was one of those items where I sat on the couch staring at my basket of yarn deciding what to crochet, when the green just kept staring at me, so I pulled it out and crocheted up this cute little guy!</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I could definitely make this guy a little more girly by adding a pink flower or bow also, so don't let the "boyness" of Mr. Frog deter you.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Because I crocheted this guy up from my own imagination, I currently have one ready to ship in a 6-12 month size! Follow my Etsy listing <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/122738860/crochet-frog-beanie-rts-free-shipping" target="_blank">here</a> to purchase, or e-mail me at casscrochetcreations@yahoo.com.

She was looking for a deep yellow for the main part, with brown for the accents. I ended up having the perfect yellow on hand, and I was able to get it crocheted up yesterday and shipped out today!</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">My <i>official</i> turn-around time is 3-5 business days, but now that I have a postal scale and all shipping supplies at home, I am able to ship directly from my mailbox so much quicker!</span><br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">These photos were taken by TuLeaf Photography in New York for her mini Valentine's Day sessions:</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I love the simplicity of it. It is very obviously a hat for Valentine's Day, yet it is also screams "BOY!", which can be tough to design. Girl designs are requested so much more often, that I tried to make sure that there were boy versions available also. I love the way it came out, and I am so thrilled that someone else enjoyed the beanie too!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">If you are interested in purchasing the beanie (you are always welcome to change any of the colors), follow the link to my Etsy link <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/121916049/crochet-valentines-beanie-free-shipping" target="_blank">here</a>. Don't forget to come back tomorrow for more of my Valentine's collection!</span></div>

Shoot, we even had an ice storm the other day, and snow appeared today! But, this custom order isn't even for someone local. My customer purchased it for a friend of hers out in Switzerland! Very cool, eh?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I absolutely love the way the gray and cream look wound together, and the wood button really finishes it off!

I absolutely loved the idea of it, and couldn't wait to get started! </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">It was my first time working up a cocoon, so it took me several <strike>tries</strike> days to get it right, but based on the dimensions of it, it should fit a newborn perfectly! Oh, and for anyone wondering- yes. Making newborn baby hats, cocoons, etc. makes me have baby fever. The items are just so tiny! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I love how it turned out, and I hope my customer does too! Her baby is due in the next couple of months, so hopefully after baby boy is born we will see photos of him in the hat and cocoon gracing my Facebook page!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">If you are interested in purchasing your own Winnie the Pooh set, see my Etsy listing here. </span><br />

Headbands, lace, frills and dresses? I'm pretty guilty of that myself! My girl has tons of headbands {I get mine from Birdie Baby Boutique, where do you get yours?}, crochet boots, cute outfits, etc., while my guy is... well, <i>lacking </i>in that area. Don't get me wrong, he wears nice clothes, but he isn't always as head to toe decked out as she is. I don't always make sure his hat, shoes and gloves match his outfit, I just make sure that he actually has them <b>on</b>. I've been working on some new boy designs lately to combat it, so that all of the new mommas of boys don't feel left out!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Long time no blog, eh?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Yea... sorry about that! I haven't had many custom orders lately, mostly <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/115042238/mickey-mouse-hat-free-shipping" target="_blank">Mickey</a> and <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/115040092/minnie-mouse-hat-free-shipping" target="_blank">Minnie</a> hats. Not that I am unhappy about those, I love crocheting them! However, I've made it clear that I <i>love </i>custom orders, so don't be shy! Come out of the shade and tell me whatcha want!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I posted about my son's new closet toy storage with <a href="http://cassidyscrochetcreations.blogspot.com/2012/11/custom-toy-storage-part-1.html" target="_blank">part one</a> and <a href="http://cassidyscrochetcreations.blogspot.com/2012/12/custom-closet-storage-part-2.html" target="_blank">part two</a>, you guys love suspense, right? (Oh, and in those photos I was short two chalkboard labels, well Michael's <b>finally</b> restocked their wood section, so I was able to pick up two more! You guys don't need a photo update on that, right?) Well, I loved my son's crates so much that I decided to paint one up for my daughter's toys too! She doesn't have quite as many toys as he does, so all of her toys fit in this one crate. (Besides her favorite toy ever- Weebles! They are just too big to fit in the crate.) The rocking chair pictured is also from Michael's, we gave it to A as a Santa gift for Christmas this year. I stock up on coupons, and was able to get 50% off of <b>both </b>the rocking chair and the crate! I ended up paying around $25 for the rocking chair and $6 for the crate. What a deal, eh?!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I <strike>am too lazy to walk across the room to see what the paint colors are</strike> don't have the paint colors handy, but if you let me know which color you are interested in, I can let you know what it is. The lavender is a much deeper color than the photo depicts. I actually love purchasing <a href="http://theorganicbloom.com/" target="_blank">The Organic Bloom frames</a>, I get them from a local photographer,<a href="http://www.rstphotos.com/" target="_blank"> RST Photography</a>. I have a couple for A's room that are espresso and lavender, so I purchased the same Benjamin Moore lavender color that OB uses on their frames. The espresso is a secret mix, so I couldn't purchase that, I just went with a deep brown that I liked.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I'm baaaack! I had some internet problems, but I am back and ready to hit the ground running with this blogging thing.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I had a customer request a monster hat, with a specific color palette and design in mind. I could tell from the beginning that the hat would be super cute, but <i>man</i>! It's even cuter than I imagined.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">He is ridiculously cute, right?! These kinds of brightly colored, incredibly fun hats are such great photo props! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">As soon as I completed it, my 2 year old (almost 3!) instantly wanted it. When I told him that it wasn't for him, he no longer cared for his <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/104263936/crochet-monkey-hat-free-shipping" target="_blank">monkey hat</a> or <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/119568308/crochet-cookie-monster-hat-free-shipping" target="_blank">cookie monster hat</a>.

That was such a fun giveaway! I loved reading everyone's unique ideas on how they would like to customize a hat! I ended up going with the Hello Kitty hat designed by Lisa Leslein, (and when I went to ship it, I realized that she lives only one town over from me- so weird!) and I love how it turned out!</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I think it looks so cool, and I hope Lisa's niece does too! You can purchase a Hello Kitty hat for $25 (shipping already included) by e-mailing me at casscrochetcreations@yahoo.com.</span><br />

I have finally gotten around to crocheting up a pink Minnie Mouse hat! (<i>Does anyone else read "pink" in a high pitched voice in their head? Just me? Moving on...</i>)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">My daughter is constantly wearing pink, and her previous <i>every day</i> hat was a hot pink beanie with a big white button, similar to <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/117974773/crochet-beanie-rts-free-shipping" target="_blank">this one</a>, except without the white border. While it was very cute, it was just a beanie, and I wanted her to have an earflap hat to get through the winter. I knew that the hot pink Minnie Mouse hat would be <b>perfect </b>because my daughter wears a lot of pink. I'm talking <i>every single day</i> basically. Which is weird, because I always said I wouldn't put my daughter in a lot of pink as a baby, but everything I like just happens to be pink! What's even funnier is that her nursery is done in lavender/brown, yet I <b>never </b>dress her in purple. Weird, I know.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Anyways! Without further ado, pink Minnie!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The prices for pink Minnie vs. red Minnie are the exact same- $15 for a Minnie beanie, $25 for a Minnie earflap hat; shipping included.

My son, in specific, will just tell me what kind of hat he wants. I recently crocheted him a <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/104263936/crochet-monkey-hat-free-shipping" target="_blank">monkey hat</a>, and while he liked it, pretty soon after he was pretty bored, and in need of a new hat. I'm talking a couple days here, folks. He moves quick like his momma.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">His request this time?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Yup, a cookie monster hat.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I love the little details I added; like the googly eyes and the cookies hanging from the braids. However, in reality, my opinion was not the one that mattered. C's thoughts? He was <i>in love.</i></span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Simple beanies with one embellishment are $15, shipping included. The embellishment can be anything from a heart to a flower or button. You can even shoot me an e-mail if you have something else in mind that you would like to put on a hat {football applique? tractor applique?}, and I can let you know if it is possible. Don't forget to like my Facebook page for sneak peeks of more fun hats!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She requested cream for the top half, light pink for the middle, and for the bottom she requested cream and tan wound together. It's incredibly difficult to see, sadly, but in person it is very cute! Maybe if we're lucky she'll post a photo of the little girl wearing it over on my Facebook page!</span><br />

Can you believe it is already 2013?! This year just flew by for me; I gave birth to my second child, I quit my full time job to stay home and I jump started my crochet business! I am so excited to see what 2013 has in store for me!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">While all of you gave wonderful and creative ideas, I love the idea of designing a Hello Kitty hat! I know that it will turn out incredible, and I will be sure to share pictures as soon as it is finished!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Lisa, please e-mail me at <a href="mailto:casscrochetcreations@yahoo.com">casscrochetcreations@yahoo.com</a> by midnight tonight to claim your prize!

the wonderful photographers that I get to work with, and to show them my
appreciation I'd like to give each one a featured post, so expect a week of
every month's posts to be dedicated to pictures of squishy newborn goodness,
glowing bellies, thriving toddlers and beautiful families. I am not perked in
any way to write these posts, I just like to be able to showcase each one more
than just "sharing" their photos on Facebook.</em></span><br />

I absolutely love working with Carrie Geno, the owner and photographer at Geno Photography. She isn't just a photographer to me, because she has also been taking my children's photos since my oldest was 6 months old (he is now almost 3!). She is an absolutely flawless prop photographer, highlighting details I could only dream of. Here are some recent photos she has taken for me.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">A lot of people forget that I crochet items for every age and size {for no extra charge}, so I sent some items to her and requested a couple of photos so that I could showcase older children too.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This earwarmer headband was custom ordered from a repeat customer at the Holiday Expo, and I'm not sure why (and how) I forgot to share it!</span><br />

No one can. It is just hits too close to home.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I don't live in Connecticut. I don't know the families. But I want to help. The only way that I know how to help is by donating.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Today, December 18, 2012, through tomorrow, December 19, 2012 ending at 8am, I will be offering 20% of all proceeds from my ready to ship items to go to support the Sandy Hook victims.</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Items will ship Wednesday, December 19, 2012 and therefore *should* make it to homes before Christmas.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">You can also check out several other small businesses that are donating (including Scentsy, Stella and Dot, and so many more) over on the blog <a href="http://www.iloveyoumorethancarrots.com/" target="_blank">I Love You More Than Carrots</a>. She also has links for donating directly, without purchasing.</span><br />

Everyone had heard about Sandy Hook by Friday afternoon. It's surprising, it's terrifying, but worse, <i>it's our new normal</i>.</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">These kinds of tragedies seem to be happening all the time, and everyone seems to be working on some way to prevent it.</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> But how?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">How do we prevent something like this?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Higher security in our schools? The problem is that <i>you don't know </i>who is coming in to commit a crime like this, or who is coming in to take their kid to a dental appointment. From what I have read, the principal buzzed him through the security system because she recognized him. She didn't think in any way, shape or form that he was coming in for... something like <b>that.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Gun control? I don't really know where I stand here. What I do know is that criminals are not known to follow the laws, so will stricter laws keep tragedies like this from occurring?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Menta</span>l <span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">illness</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">help? Always. It's impossible to predict who will commit this kind of a crime. In America, we can't just assume that somebody has this capability, and therefore put them away for life. Because what if they <i>aren't </i>capable of it? We just ruined their life. But then, what if they <b>are</b>, and we aren't helping them. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Sandy Hook.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I feel... speechless. And then I ramble. I can't comprehend what has happened. Small children go home and <i>they have no one to play with. </i>Their sibling, their best friend, their other half- is gone. How many children feel lost right now? Their parents are doing their best to keep it together, but how many children are watching their parents, maybe even their entire family, fall apart?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">How many parents go home to any empty bed? They just sit on their child's bed, hugging their favorite stuffed animal and praying that it's all a horrific nightmare that they will wake up to. Then they find themselves ready to stand, ready to walk to the living room. Only to find <i>every little thing </i>reminding them of the child that they can no longer snuggle to sleep. The Christmas tree with gifts that will never be opened; the TV with every news station reporting on <b>their child.</b> They think of the last thing they said to their child. Was it a happy morning where they exchanged I love you's before their child jumped out of the car and ran into one of their favorite places in the world? Or was it a slow, not so happy morning? Was it a grumpy morning where the child didn't want to go to school, didn't even want to leave their bed? Hopefully not. I really, really hope not. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">So what can we <i>do</i>?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">If you believe in a higher power- then pray. Pray until you don't think you can pray anymore, then pray again.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We can support them emotionally. We can let them know that the United States is behind them, and we will help them get the support they need.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We can support them financially. I read {but I have no idea if it has been confirmed} that a funeral home in Dubuque, Iowa is providing caskets to the family of each victim. If that is true, I'm not surprised. I live in Iowa. This is what Iowans do. We stand behind the people who need it; we do what we can.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">So I am going to do what I can. I don't know the details yet, but I know that I am going to help. I will get all of my information to AP from<a href="http://www.iloveyoumorethancarrots.com/" target="_blank"> I Love You More Than Carrots</a> by the end of today, and everything you need to know will be up tomorrow. In the meantime, if you have ideas, please send them my way. E-mail me at casscrochetcreations@yahoo.com. I am going to be brainstorming all day, so I would definitely appreciate any kind of input that I can get.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">My last thoughts for today, remember these names. You don't need to know the name of the murderer. You only need to know the names of the heroes {also known as teachers and other administrative staff} and the small children who lost their lives. That is it. </span></div>

I forsee lots of happy children on Christmas morning! Also, a lot of people are using my Mickey and Minnie hats to put in their "clues to Disneyland" gift, how incredibly cute is that? I wish that I could see the looks on those kids' faces!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This particular customer loved my puppy hat, but wanted different colors. She wanted to go with more of a neutral palette, and settled on green instead of brown, and cream instead of tan.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I am incredibly in love with this hat. So in love, that I may use it as inspiration for coordinating hats for my children. Yup- I'm <i>that</i> in love.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The green is a little bit deeper and brighter in person, this yarn just does not photograph very well at all. Seriously, the hat is beautiful, I promise. You will just need to <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/114806757/crochet-puppy-hat-free-shipping" target="_blank">order one</a> to see for yourself! Remember, all orders are completely custom, and I still have just a little bit of extra time to get items shipped before Christmas!</span><br />
