Kitsap Arts and Crafts Festival

2008-06-12T14:39:00.000-07:00

It's official! I was accepted to enter the 49th annual Kitsap Arts and Crafts Festival in Port Gamble. It runs July 25th, 26th, and 27th. It runs 10-6pm Friday and Saturday and 10-5pm on Sunday. Available all three days are over 100 booths representing a wide variety of crafts; an antique car exhibit; musical entertainment and a special children's section featuring interactive art, entertainment, and contests designed just for kids. Over 30,000 people attended last year.
Should be fun, exciting, and busy. I am really looking forward to it. I am planning to sell a wide variety of baby crafts. I will have ring slings, baby wraps, nursing covers, diaper changing pads, baby legwarmers, bibs, washcloths, hooded towels, baby hats, knitted children's scarves, and more...
Hope to see you there!

HipBaby Nursing Cover

2008-05-12T10:45:00.000-07:00

HipBaby nursing covers are made from lightweight cotton fabric. A reinforced rigid neckline holds the fabric away from your baby allowing you and your baby to maintain eye contact while breastfeeding. Nursing in public doesn’t have to be stressful. You can discretely breastfeed your baby and still be able to see what your doing without anyone else being able to see. The HipBaby nursing cover keeps you and your baby covered and cooler than if you were covering up with a baby blanket like most moms do. It can be draped over a car seat or stroller to block out the sun, rain, or wind. This multifunctional nursing cover makes a great shower gift for new and seasoned mommies! HipBaby nursing covers are made from 100% cotton fabric and are machine washable. They have an adjustable D-ring neck strap that allows for a perfect fit. And the strap is made from satin so it is smooth around moms neck and so soft for baby to hold in their hand.

Diaper Changing Pads

2008-05-12T09:17:00.000-07:00

I created these changing pads to give babies cleaner, softer place to rest their bum during diaper changes away from home. After hearing how many germs can accumulate on vinyl mats I decided to go for cotton. While vinyl has it's place, this mat is machine washable.Measuring 14 x 29" it gives ample room to get the job done. One side features a contemporary print and the reverse is super soft fabric. Sandwiched in between is a cotton batting for extra padding. The entire mat has been top-stitched around the edge. Designed to fold into thirds, easy to tuck away into diaper bag. Sewn on ribbon to keep it folded shut. *Machine washable on cold, delicate cycle, dryer friendly.

Tonia and Vann

2008-05-12T08:41:00.000-07:00

Here is my sister-in-law Tonia and my nephew Vann in the sling I made her. He loves it still at 10 months old. He fell asleep in it that day...He is so precious!

Wrap Style Carrier

2008-03-05T07:59:00.000-08:00

Here is my first wrap style carrier. I have sewn on a beautiful purple poppy fabric in the center of the fabric for extra support and so you can easily find the middle of the fabric for putting it on quickly.

Here are a few more I made

Child Slings

2008-02-05T08:42:00.001-08:00

My daughter loves to carry her baby around! A great gift for a child who is about to have a new baby in the house. Then they can have their own baby to carry and take care of, just like mommy! I sell the child slings for $15 each.

More Slings

2008-02-05T07:13:00.000-08:00

Here are some linen slings I recently made. Linen is more breathable than the cotton slings and is preferred by people who live in warmer climates.

Blue Sling

2007-11-09T08:09:00.001-08:00

I have had quite a few orders of this one.

Other HipBaby Products

2007-11-08T15:44:00.001-08:00

Here are some pictures of the hooded towels I make. They are 100% cotton, full bath towel size. They fit from newborn size and up. Towels come with a coordinating ribbon on the hood.
I also make bibs, burp cloths, and washclothes in any color/print flannel you may want.
Bibs tie so children cannot pull them off, and since they are made of flannel, it helps food "stick" to the bib. I also make washcloths that are flannel on one side for softness and terry on the other for washing. They also make wonderful diaper wipes if you use cloth diapers!

North Kitsap Holiday Fest

2007-11-08T15:30:00.001-08:00

On the Left is the infant cradle carry. This is the best position for newborns to sleep in.

On the Right is the semi-reclined cradle carry. In this cradle position baby is up higher on the sling towards the rings which helps baby to see out and up at you.

On the Left the cradle carry you would use for breast/bottle feeding. Note - head is opposite of the rings for feeding.

Port Gamble Farmers Market

2007-06-12T12:04:00.000-07:00

On Sunday, June 10th, we tried the Port Gamble Farmers Market for the first time. It went really well. I took with me about 9 slings to sell and some of my homemade hooded bath towels for children. I got a lot of interest in both. It was a fun family day as well. Here are some pictures of me at my booth. My son Kyle, was the perfect baby sling model - he took a nice long nap in the sling - great advertising :)

HipBaby Slings

2007-06-12T07:21:00.000-07:00

Well I just figured out how to set up this blog. So I will be keeping my HipBaby business updated here. My main reason for this blog is to have a place for my customers to go for more information on how to use their sling. So I will be working on getting photos, instructions, and hopefully video instructions on this week. I am also going to keep my current slings that are for sale on here as well. I am always free to customize a sling for anyone, letting them choose fabric, colors, sizing, and pocket or trim accents.
