So I have been working on new "spring" items for my Kate's Closet Store.  Usually I make scarves, hats and such.  The necklace sets are $10 each, the earrings are $5 each and the bracelets are $5 each. 

This is what happens when I'm forced to watch basketball....

Can you guess what game we were watching??? These are for sale. $20 each.

Flip Flop Makeover......

My kids LOVE flip flops in the summer.  The cheap ones are my favorite because they are great to throw on before they go outside to play.  My daughter complained though that the straps hurt her feet.  And when she took them off there were always marks..... solution......

 

Crochet flip flop straps!!!!  And of course we had to sew on a button and put a flower on it.  The flower is changeable so she can make them match her outfit.  And the yarn is washable so I can still throw them in the sink if they get dirty. 

 

I'm in LOVE with hers and I'll be making myself a pair soon!!!!

Also- if you can't crochet or knit, you could use ribbon, balloons, or material to tie on them to make them soft!!!!

If you don't want to do any of those, I would be glad to make a few more pairs!!!

 

 

 

Dish Towel Dilemma

 

 

I love to crochet things!  I remember when I was young my mom always had dishtowels that had crochet tops that would button over the handle of our oven door.  I used to LOVE them.  I always knew where the towel was. 

 

Years later, now that I have my own kids, I'm always searching for a dish towel with wet hands.  Or when I find one, it is in a heap on the counter still wet!  I went to work and figured out a solution! 

 

Instead of crocheting on ALL of my dish towels, I created this!  It buttons on and off and you can put your towel in it to dry.  I now know where my towel is at all times and even the kids put it back after they wipe their hands!!!
