Meet the Maker

 

My name is Grace and I am a wife and mother to two energetic boys Kai and Benjamin. Our work, home and family life is constantly busy, but we each have our own separate activity that helps keeps us well balanced. This shop is my happy-time, me-time, all my own and I ENJOY every chance I get with my shop. It’s fun! 

When my first-born was finally taking the soother (after trying about a gazillion different ones), I found that the selection of soother clips were very limited in stores. I did finally find one that was unique and suited our style. However, eventually it did not meet the needs of our teething baby. 

Along came our second baby, who took to the soother pretty quickly. I was on the hunt again for a soother clip that was safe for teething gums and compatible with any soother. Being the DIYer that I am, I did some reading, blog searching, safety researching, You Tube watching. Then I ordered a small box of supplies to make my son’s soother clip and a few extra one’s as gifts for friends. I was HOOKED! I started designing different patterns, teething rings, rattles and accessories. 

I’ve always enjoyed creating and taking on DIY projects, whether it’s for my kids birthdays, family baby showers, work events.  I also love cooking and baking - creating has always been a part of me. 

I hope you will enjoy my handmade items just as much as I have enjoyed creating them!
