Custom Design Spots NOW AVAILABLE

4.18.2012

I *love* custom design projects! I started Daydream Believers with the goal of creating the unique, fabulous items that moms want for their kids. In order to give every piece I make my fullest attention, I have to limit the number of “custom orders” I take on each month. Because I have the BEST customers, I’ve opened up FOUR additional Custom Design Spots (for June and July!) Yay! This is just my way of saying THANKS for following along!
This is your chance to commission a one-of-a-kind outfit for your kiddo! :)
These spots typically fill up months in advance, so to make things as fair as possible -
I’m listing all available custom design spots in the Big Cartel shop.

Tutorial: Felt Flower Pin

4.04.2012

Welcome back to the Handcrafted Easter Event here at Daydream Believers! :)

You are going to LOVE today’s tutorial! I’m going to teach you my favorite way to make a fun, felt flower pin. I know there are a lot of ways to make felt flowers; this one is my favorite! The flowers are easy to assemble and made with supplies you probably have on hand in your craft-stash. You can finish the flowers off in back with a silver bar pin, an alligator clip, or my fav a combination bar pin/clip; so you and your little loves can wear these flowers pinned to a shirt, jacket, dress, scarf, clipped to a purse, headband, necklace, or right into your hair! Gotta’ love that!


You can easily customize these flowers (making them more dressy or more funky) depending on the color combination you select.

As you may know, I am the proud mumma of two very funny, very loving, very GIRLY little girls!
My little loves are 2 and 4 and the world is their playground! My hubs and I  try to surround our girls with JOY - we believe that life (especially childhood) should be enjoyed, not rushed through. Our house is filled with lots of music, lots of dancing and LOTS of laughter.  These easy-little ribbon wands add a touch of magic to our dance parties… my little queen bees love swirling them, dancing through them, and spinning as fast as they can while waving them!


These wands can be customized in SO many ways to best suit your little love!
Change up the colors, paint the base, vary the ribbon lengths… there are MANY options.

Here are the basics for making a DIY Ribbon Wand:
