One of our students sent us these gorgeous pictures of her baby Angus, now 5 months old, wearing some fabulous screen printed baby grows!
Back in June, Rachel celebrated her impending motherhood at The Make Lounge,in a Screen Printing workshopwith Helen Rawlinson, where she created this cute set of three printed baby grows!
We think these designs would look great on T-shirts in our size, too :)
It definitely looks like Angus is pretty happy with his designer wardrobe!!!
(Squeeze Me Mittens by Oeuf)
What a sweet idea, a pair of adult sized mittens with a pair of kid sized mittens sew in! Keep hold of the little one and stay cozy at the same time; a perfect combo!
These clever mittens are knitted in Bolivia by a self-managed community of indigenous women. In line with Fair Trade principles, they receive a living wage, which enables them to afford health care and education for their children.
All the mittens are made from soft, luxurious alpaca wool which is hypoallergenic and eco friendly.
Check out Oeuf for these and lots of other awesome treats!
We've gone a bit quiet this wek, but it definitely hasn't been quiet at The Make Lounge! Quite the contrary, as we've had 14 kids on hand for our Crafty Kids Holiday Fun Club. We've been making monsters (above)...
