Introducing you to - SnickerdoodleKnitsCo

Hi There.....Is it getting colder where you are too?

It is over here in Belgium. I am not a huge fan of wintertime especially not the cold 😞

But there are some things to help you fight the cold.....like warm, fuzzy knitwear.

That's why I am introducing you today to SnickerdoodleKnitsCo. It's a one-woman run shop and it's operated from Jessica's apartment living room.

You might think huh.....what the heck is so special about that. Well, it is the passion and enthusiasm that's kindled in Jessica's cozy knitter's heart and transferred to you in the form of warm, fuzzy knitwear and goods for your family and home.

She has been knitting for about 10 years but never dreamed of owning a knit shop until her last year of college. Mostly cause she never had time to even think about knitting as an engineering student. When she pulled out her knitting again over her last winter break, she rediscovered her love for knitting. The way the click of the needles and the squish of the yarn relaxed her stress and anxiety. By then she had discovered that engineering actually was not her 'thing' 😦

She had always had a love for crafts and creative work, but some influential people in her life had convinced her that things like graphic design or photography were not worth the limited paycheck. That might be true for some people, but sometimes you have to follow your heart. So now she is working as an interior designer 'by day' and operating a knit shop 'by night'.

So let's take a look at what her needles produced for you 😃

Introducing you to - ChelleLaVe

Hi There.....Are you a fan of handmade T-shirts and coffee mugs?

Sure you are.....we all wear T-shirts and we all use mugs.....don't we 😊

So let me tell you something more about a shop on Etsy called ChelleLaVe.

The shop owner started dancing at 9 years old and danced throughout high school at a magnet school for the arts and went on to get her Bachelor in Dance. Why not, she thought and believed that you should do what makes you happy every single day of your life.

After graduating she held on to a few jobs, but nowhere near to what she loved to do and that made her realize that she couldn't settle for what the world offered and she would have to take what she wanted.

She bought herself a silhouette cameo 3 or 4 years ago and made her first project on a coffee mug.

Aha, I can hear you thinking..... What in the world is a silhouette cameo 😃

It is about the same size as a small printer and it comes with software that makes it possible to create something and cut it out on paper, vinyl, or other kinds of materials. Yes I admit that I didn't know either but looked it up on the Internet 😀

So ever since that first time she used it she was hooked. Learning how to use this machine opened up a whole new world to her.

 She has been customizing shirts, hats, and mugs for about 2 years now and she can't wait to expand her creative reach even beyond that.

So if you are on the same journey as she is, be sure to follow her trail on Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest  😃

But first, let me take you to her shop and show you some of those wonderful creations.

Introducing you to - NightshadesTreasures

Hi There.....Do you like hunting Treasures?

Who doesn't 😃 So let me introduce you this time to NightshadesTreasures.

The shop owner, Lola, has always had a passion for art ever since she could pick up a pencil. She is a self-taught artist who strives to keep learning and improving her techniques. Being a fan of all kinds of art, she has learned many forms. She is a musician, belly dancer, painter, and jewelry maker.

That is quite a lot, don't you agree 😉

She calls herself a spooky girl, who loves to create in a creepy cute way in many things, but at times restrains herself to creating normal with a twist.

She started creating jewelry at the age of 11 already and started selling her treasures since 2013 at art shows and craft fairs. She gave them away as Christmas gifts to coworkers at times and they were always excited to see what she came up with 😇

When she became a mom in 2015 she decided to become a stay at home mom. That way she could combine the bringing up of her son and pursue her dream of being a full-time seller. She also wants to show her son that dreams do come true, and you can do anything if you put your mind to it.

Seeing it is almost time for Christmas...well I did say almost... I thought this is the perfect time to introduce you to her lovely shop 😃

Turquoise skull dangle earrings, gothic earrings

Introducing you to - LuluFaysCountrySuds

Hi There.....What soap do you use?

Silly question you might think 😃 If you think there is nothing special about a bar of soap.....you really need to be introduced to LuluFaysCountrySuds.

Melinda, the shop owner, makes soap from goats milk. But not just any goats.....she has been raising her own goats for over 20 years now. Her products are made from their milk, and she resources as much of her ingredients on her farm as she can.

Quite impressive.....don't you think so 😊

She uses natural ingredients in her products and stays away from Sulfates, Phthalates, Parabens, SLS. She does a lot of research to ensure her soaps and other products are safe for your family and hers. Obviously, her products are not tested on animals.....but on herself 😉

She works with small batches to make sure everything comes out perfect. She loves making natural Bath and Body! She firmly believes you don't need chemical-based products to clean yourself or your kids. 'Read the labels' she says. Natural is a safe and amazing way to enjoy your skin again.

Her Goat milk soap contains vitamins C, B1, B6, B12, E and A, which repairs damaged skin. It also contains alpha hydroxy acids, like lactic acid, which helps remove dead skin cells. She could write a book on the many benefits of using goats milk skin care products 😇

She combines the goat's milk with olive oil, coconut oil, responsibly sourced palm oil, castor oil, and shea butter, so you end up with an awesome bar of bubbly goodness!

In her shop you can find soap, fizzies, lip balm, sugar scrubs and more.....so time to show you some of those lovely products 😃

Nitty Gritty Dirt Bar



Watermelon Pop



Goats Milk Lotion



Love Spell



Skull



Shave Soap



Jewelweed Salve

Too bad the internet can't transmit scents 😉 So tell me.....would you consider buying soap like this?
