Curly Top Kids



I started a business back in 2005 called Curly Top Kids. It was created to sell vintage pillowcase dresses that my sister in law taught me to make. They are adorable but it's hard to get your name out there. So I quit last fall. However I need something to focus my creative energy on so I've been working on adding a new line of custom stamps. I'm very excited about this and will launch my new website in a week or so. Here's a preview. You can order at www.curlytopkids.com and tell all your friends!

I can make that!




Recently Shane's influence has gotten ahold of me and everything I see I think I can make myself for a fraction of the cost. My most recent projects were first seen on the cover of Kelly's Kids catalogue (dress, leggings and matching headband)and in A Little Something Extra (wall plaque). I think they came out pretty good and they only cost me a small fraction of the cost! I also managed to inspire my sisters to give it a try.

A Short and Sweet Visit to K.C.




We had a great time visiting friends and family in KC this past weekend. I enjoyed seeing the Royals scrape out a win against the Boston Redsox. Sorry Shane! The kids had fun playing at an indoor amusement park too and got to go swim a few times. And we got to meet our sweet new cousin Cami! Thanks for babysitting Nana!
