Reminiscent of a Simpler Time

Amy from My Vintage Blankie loves vintage, with a special fondness for vintage baby items.  Classic, nostalgic, and timeless but not trendy best describes the designs from My Vintage Blankie.  Her love of all things vintage - including 40s music and vintage china - is reflected in her home and her workspace.  She designs and creates beautiful new pieces that look vintage but have new quality and feel - she uses 100% all natural cotton. 

A favorite of mine (and others - check out the number of views!) is this personalized wall hanging, made from a heavyweight cotton flannel and measuring approximately 17"x24" in size.



 She has adorable heating pads filled with Spelt, blankies with ragged or knotted edges, pillow and bib sets, and even some great fuzzy booties!

 If you desire to give a gift of heirloom quality that can be loved for a lifetime, then consider something from My Vintage Blankie.

Aloha Bitty Bambu

Meet Taryn from Bitty Bambu.  She lives on a volcano in Maui.  Really.  Designing and sewing children's clothes, accessories, and personalized items while overlooking the beautiful island of Maui must be amazing!  She says that nature is an "inverwoven" part of the life that she shares with her husband and two children, and that nature inspires her creations and sewing artwork - which is evident in her shop.  

Bitty Bambu has many t-shirt designs which highlight some of natures greatest wonders - the sun, the flowers, the animals, the sea.  There are also many burp cloth designs, all in fantastic bright colors and fabrics, which seems to be her biggest sellers lately.  The personalized pillowcases provide a unique and customizable idea, with each letter popping in a whimsical font.

Remembering Emma


Welcome to Snanimals, where each shoe is handpainted with LOVE. 

Jane Perillo, founder and artist of Snanimals, is inspired by her children.  She handpaints each adorable little bug, animal, and character with the detail and creativity of a mom creating for a child.  Her creations provide Jane with a way to remember and honor her late daughter, Emma, and she believes that Emma lives on in every pair of shoes she creates.  In addition, Jane is creating for others something that is fun and practical and that children can wear every day.

The big sellers, according to Jane, are Minnie Mouse, Elmo, Cupcakes, and Ladybugs.  Jane enjoys the colorful ones, particularly the green and pink ladybugs and the cows.  Along with many different shoes to choose from, Jane also handpaints baby booties, onesies, bloomers, and totes.   


Jane's daughter, Anna, is a great and willing shoe model who makes it clear which ones are her favorites!  She prefers the sneakers, and she loves Elmo!  Anna has quite a shoe collection for a kid!
