Handmade Toys for Girls

Of course it's not only little boys who love handmade toys, but the little princesses in our lives love a carefully crafted toy just like those above. Websites like MadeIt are such a great resource for finding those special handmade treasures that your daughter, granddaughter, niece or goddaughter is sure to cherish for her whole childhood, and beyond. 

Quality handmade toys are the perfect tool for the imagination and the thing memories are made of.

Here are some of our favourite: Elephant Softie | Play Cottage | Little Red Ridinghoood Doll | Crochet Beauty Set | Wooden Flower Stackables

Getting the teacher gifts ready...

You might have seen this idea online as I did...

I thought it was so cute that I decided to make my own version for Will's daycare teachers along with some other handmade tasty goodies I'm yet to make.

I showed my BFF today who is a teacher and asked 'Do you think teachers like handmade treats or just prefer the typical box of chocolates/coffee mug/soaps and lotions?' She said that handmade it much better and she always likes the handmade gifts the best even if they're less extravagant that store bought gifts. So that made me feel better :)

What are you giving as teacher gifts? I'd love to know!

I have a few little girls to shop for in the coming months and so I thought I'd put together a little Girls Gift Guide full of beautiful Handmade creations sourced from Etsy.com and Madeit.com. I think these gifts would be perfect for a little girl of any age.

Also wanted to say a big thank you to Kristen of www.6thstreetdesignschool.blogspot.com for including my Bedtime Bus Roll Poster in her Etsy Poster Roundup today. She has a lovely blog!


I'm off to Mothers Group today for the first time in 2010 it will be interesting to see how all the other bubs are coming along with their crawling and cruising.

Have a lovely day and thank you for stopping by,
