Equestrian Sophisticate!

Equestrian style has long since ruled the fashion runways. Its such a sophisticated, and glamorous look but super easy to wear in everyday life while feeling comfortable wearing it! The 2010-11 fall/winter runways are chalk-full of this amazing style in very different ways. I tried to take this sophisticated style and make it more approachable for the younger audience. Of course I would never stop an adult from wearing this unique, one-of-a-kind hair accessory!!! Check it out!

Here is a new item for Saint Patrick's Day! Enjoy!!! Giddy Up & Grow


What Friends Are For!!

One of my good friends Rachel is a fellow crafter! And by crafter I mean she makes her own line of jewellry (http://www.innocentvintage.etsy.com/), and a few baby items to boot! I love this onesie she made for my baby girl. Faux necklaces galore! I believe she uses a fabric marker from just a local craft store, and draws her own unique designs. You could try this at home too! The marker stays put even wash after wash! This would make a very cute baby gift!

Joe Fresh Style

Here in Canada we have a clothing line for kids, babies, women, and men called Joe Fresh Style. This clothing company is founded by the same man who curated Club Monaco. Joe Fresh is only available at the Canadian Superstore (like a Walmart). The prices are fantastic and the style is amazing... I recently purchased a pair of cords for me, a shirt for my son, and a pair of pj's for my daughter. I love these jammies!!!

A Sweet Whimsical Shop!! Handknit Hugs!!

I came across the sweet shop on Etsy.com when I was randomly browsing, as I often do. I fell in love with several of their items, and just had to share them with you! The Shop is called Handknit Hugs, and you should check it out. Their items would make fantastic baby gifts, as they are unique, handmade, and of course adorable!!

Monster Baby Slippers, you can custom the size!
Mushroom Baby Hat

Packaging

My packaging is simple but sweet! I hand make all of my hair accessories, so in keeping with that tradition, I hand make all of my packaging as well. I cut all the paper, hand stamp every one, and take a lot of pride in making sure each package looks as sweet as can be! I guess that would be the advertiser in me (use to work for an ad agency before I had kids).

She's Here and I love Her!!!

Today was like Christmas for me! I received several wonderful packages in the mail today, one of which was my custom doll from Warm Sugar, http://www.warmsugar.etsy.com/. Her name is Gwen and she is a pretty pirate!!! She is the new mascot for my etsy shop at Giddy Up & Grow. I love her blonde hair and eye patch made from seude. The fabrics used are vintage, and the owner of Warm Sugar, Shannon really makes sure you get what you want. Pure cuteness~~~ Her cheeks are even rosey!! I highly recommend checking out Warm Sugar if you are in the market for special, one-of-a-kind dolls for your little ones. There are several price ranges and these dolls really are special! I just love mine!

~~~~VINTAGE BEAUTIES~~~


My mom found these vintage pictures at her local thrift shop. I say "score"!!! I love them. The frames are ornate and a bit goddy, which is what I love about them. My mom thought I could put pictures of the kids in them, but I loved the floral art that came with them that I didn't change a thing!!!
