Etsy Seller of the Week - kraftyladykreations

Each week I feature an Etsy seller who creates items I feel my fellow moms would appreciate. Kathy at KraftyLadyCreations is this week's Etsy seller of the week. I absolutely fell in love with the adorable handmade booties, hats, and blankets for babies. The booties are my favorite. You're sure to fall in love with them. She actually makes high tops! I love these!



I asked Kathy to tell me more about herself and the items she creates.

"I opened my shop on Etsy in January 0f 2007. I have always enjoyed making a variety of different things. I learned how to knit and crochet when I was in grade school, 40 years ago:) I also love to stamp, both cards and scrap booking. About five years ago I decided to quit my job due to health reasons, I turned to yarn to get through it. I made scarves, hats, afghans, dishcloths just because I wanted to make them. I gave many items as gifts or charity donations but soon realized I needed a way to support my yarn obsession. I read about Etsy in my local newspaper and decided to give it a try. My shop began with a variety of different things but it became apparent very soon that the baby booties were the big hit. So I decided to focus primarily on the booties. I added the hats last year so my customers could purchase a set along with the high tops in organic cotton. I am planning on adding some new styles, hats and bootes in 2010.

My favorite booties to make are the high top sneakers probably because I went through a Converse phase myself in my younger years. When my children were babies I loved baby things that were cute but practical too - the fact that the sneaker booties tie on baby's foot makes them even more appealing! I love when I get a custom order for unique color combinations. My most popular sellers are black with red( or pink), the camo colors and the hot pink."
