Mother's Day!

Now, we're not just saying this because we're a couple of moms ourselves, but doesn't it seem wrong that we only celebrate mom once a year?  We think we should celebrate every chance we get.  And until the day when the dishes wash themselves and supper goes straight from the fridge to the table alone, might we suggest celebrating mom by making her look absolutely fabulous doing what it is she does best (which is, you know, basically everything!). And lets' not forget about her little helper! 

The right tools make all the difference, and that includes the right outfit for the job!  Adjustable mother/daughter aprons are the perfect Mother's Day gift for mothers and daughters of all ages.  Want to get Grandma in on the action, too?  Or have more than one little kitchen helper?  Or, perhaps your little kitchen helper would like something with tractors or tools on it, as opposed to flowers and polka dots?  We want to make the perfect Mother's Day gift for you.  Below are just some of the sample fabrics we have available, but we love custom designs, so please contact us if you don't find exactly what you're looking for!

Mother/Daughter Adjustable Aprons are only $50 with FREE SHIPPING!  But please get your orders in before May 1 to ensure they are completed and delivered in time for mom's big day!  For custom orders, please email us at yourplayfulpeanut@gmail.com for a free quote, and help in finding the perfect design for you.

Happy Mother's Day, Moms!

Cute No Slip Hair Clips

 
Here are a few more pictures of a beautiful girl wearing some of the clips that we made. We love the way she is wearing them. It is not the standard way most parents tend to put clips in.

These pictures are amazing... and we have Kristel Bueckert Photography to thank for the wonderful work.


We have been working on clips for a while now and we are happy to say that we have perfected our technique. These clips are made from stylish grosgrain ribbon and they feature a unique no-slip grip that will help them stay put even in the finest of baby hair.

You can pick from our ribbon sheet and we will be more than happy to make them with bows, buttons etc.

They are selling as fast as we can make them. They are $5.00 a pair

We have been making clips for little girls of all ages. They are cute on any age. You can add buttons or bows, or just order them plain. Cute no matter how they wear them! We are always looking for new ribbon, so keep checking back for updated ribbon selections.

Bananarama - Here Come the Monkeys!




We had a great time sewing and stitching these little guys. It's a great feeling knowing that a child somewhere will spend many hours playing with a handmade sock monkey that we made!








No two monkeys are the same. Each one is made with love. We have many boy and girl patterns to choose from.







This is the precious little monkey I made for my daughter. So I am proud to welcome a new member to our home. She loves her monkey...She kisses her, and takes her along everywhere. We tuck her in at night and ensure she gets to eat as well.
Who knew that a monkey would be so loved!

Headbands- The Comfy Kind



I remember as a child loving to wear headbands but having red marks behind my ears from them digging into my head...
This comfy headband will not cause any pain and actually stays put.
The most annoying thing is when you get your headband in the perfect spot and soon it starts to move or ride up the back of your head.
These stay where you want them and are pain free making them perfect for any adult or child.
Headbands are $5.00 each


This little girl is just over three years old and has the longest, most beautiful hair ever.
We put a headband on her and she was 'oh so proud'. She wore it all morning!
