Fresh Out of the Workshop: MavenMini - The Tom-Tom

Deep in thought...

Those baby rolls...I'm in love!


Long eyelashes and pouty lips...but he's still such a BOY!

Please...no more papparazzi!!!



This is not just a shameful ploy to show off the cuteness that is my new little nephew. Or is it? It was a hat created with lots of love for the soon-to-be newborn Thomas...appropriately named the Tom-Tom. Two big pom-poms for a special little Tom-Tom! I was inspired to go with traditional blue and cream for this cap, because I just knew that this baby would be the epitome of boy. We were supposed to have actual winter weather here in NY (not that I'm complaining!) and a little guy's winter wardrobe isn't complete without a skullcap.

Sure enough, he was born and exceeded expectations in so many ways. Tommy is too cute, too good, too lovable. And so big. He didn't even fit into newborn diapers, and he definitely wasn't fitting into the newborn sized Tom-Tom hat I had originally made for him. No problem, I recreated it bigger so that he could grow into it...and of course, model it! Here is Tommy's debut... I think he has a strong modeling career ahead of him. And this is not just a ridiculously proud aunt talking. But if you ask his parents, they will most likely say "football player." Ha.

The Tom-Tom is available in our store, and it can be made to order for little gals too!

Fresh out of the Workshop: MavenMini - The Ellie

swoon...William Ellington "Ellie" Jones 

the dapper don lol




i just love this removable decoration!



here is the first creation that resulted from my latest inspiration.  this little hat was made and named for my brother's son, who is celebrating his first birthday this week.  when i was creating the design for it, i really channeled the warrior spirit of this little man.  i knew that whatever the design, this crown had to be worthy for a prince.  the result is this ode to a bowler/trilby/fedora.  the colors are reminiscent of nature and camoflauge to represent the strength of a warrior (he is growing up in brooklyn after all lol).  orange is a regular contrast color that i use with camo.  i love this burnt orange for its pop of brightness and i think it's perfect for a little boy.  to make it officially stylin', i added the fun decoration above of "leaves" and feather, drawing again from my inspiration source.  ...and there you have The Ellie!  

when The Ellie made its debut at the party, it got such a great reaction that you can now order it directly from our store! love it!!!
