<p style="text-align: left;">Not the best of photographs, but until I can get baby K to model it, this will have to do.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The above tee was lovingly hand-drawn by the talented Sheryl of <a title="SKhor A Hit" href="http://skhorahit.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">skhorahit</a>. A beautiful, handmade item that just stole my heart (and breath!) when I opened the package.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">A simple concept from a loving mom, because really, with all the talk of lead poisoning, you don&#8217;t want to risk your precious tod putting some lead-laden jewellery into her mouth. **aside : although as a jewellery maker, I try to use lead free or approved items, I still do not recommend my jewellery for toddlers for fear of swallowing and choking on small parts**</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So Sheryl comes up with hand-drawn charm necklaces adorning the neckline of baby / toddler tees. Charming, sweet and chic. Hop on over to her site to learn more. And custom order yours today. I&#8217;m sure you know some baby who would look absolutely adorable in them!</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Was surfing through Etsy&#8217;s Wedding Guide section the other day. Oh my, what bliss! Stockful of pretty frilly items, this particular piece caught my eye. A &#8216;Red Riding Hood&#8217; Bow and Blossom brooch made of sweet pink netting and felt, it speaks whimsy with a touch of delight. Available via <a title="Brooch" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26490665" target="_blank">AAliciaAccessories</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Great for accessorising a plain white dress and getting even more mileage out of it! You most certainly do not need to be a bride to wear it.</p>
