My Fun Foot Fashion For Babies

 I've always been inspired by the cute look of ballet slippers with the ties...so here's my idea of some cute slippers braided yarn ties and 3 pearls in the front.
 Baby flip flops with stretchy strap around the heel.
 This picture doesn't do these sandals justice.  Done in a deep black with a "roman style" heel and ties that happen on the outer sides for the ankles.  Then, lots of pretty pearls across the strap.  These are comfy, but very dressy looking.
 Lil loafers done in a light blue w/ taupe trim and button closure.
 My favorite baby loafers in a fun yellow and charcoal gray trim.  This pair has wooden buttons for the closure.
 Another example of a "Roman style" sandal, but the ties are mean for the bows to be in the front, center.  Cute little purple flower and pearl center for the straps.
This is navy w/ gray color combo, lil loafers in a 3-6 month size this time.
All of these were recently added last night to my little collection at Pin-Up Curls hair salon off of Covington Rd.  These were so much fun to make.  Wish I could have babies again in order to try out all of my crochet stuff....but they somehow grew to 4 and 6 years old, a little late now:o(

My new BOOT CUFF design!!



I am very proud of my latest 2-in-1 design!!  It is adjustable by the feminine bow tie at the top in order to be worn as a boot cuff.....or as an ankle cuff--a cute little extension of a high heel or flat shoe.  The gray ones happen to have a couple buttons for that extra touch.  These are considered a "short" length, but I will be trying a longer version soon.   Did I mention how much fun I'm having?

Baby Koala

Another new creation...love this soft baby koala.  I also plan on making a detachable pink bow in case it's for a girl.  Cute stuff, a definite new favorite of mine!

Primrose Booties

Finally, things have slowed down for me....this is only a sneak peek of more cuteness to come!  What's to come you may ask?  Hmmmm, well okay, maybe just one more slip:  I've been creating my own pattern for boot cuffs that can be worn 3 different ways.  Yep, having a blast right now!

Lil Shoes

Now this is something I've been putting off trying to make just because I thought it was going to be soooooo hard:o)  Me?  Intimidated by baby shoes?  Not now, haha.  These are definitely boy looking, but I know I can probably figure out Mary Jane styles for baby girls too.  Just by changing the colors I bet it would totally change the looks.  Oh, and for girls I could add flowers and straps.....options are limitless!!

First attempt at a new pattern for Chinstrap Pixie Hats

I have seen this cute hat many times and finally decided to buy the pattern because I think it's perfect for framing little newborn faces:o)  The colors can reflect girls for "pixies" or boys for "gnomes".  There is a cute button on the side that you can't see in this pic, but it adds some extra cuteness.  I'm sure I'll add more accents i.e. flowers in the future, but this simple version is clean and frames her face beautifully for this newborn photo.  Very easy to follow pattern, it can be found at  http://www.etsy.com/shop/upabove
Thanks to Up Above Creations!  Love this hat!
