I bought these darling 'newborn booties' for Josiah before he was born from the lovely Natalie of My Claire Rose! He wore them home from hospital (they still fit him). They are gorgeous and soft, made from wool and bamboo. He also wore them to our friend's wedding in Brisbane last month... for a little while anyway, it wasn't really bootie weather - but looked ever so cute.
For the same wedding, I purchased a lovely burp cloth too as I didn't want to drag around the daggy white nappies we use at home! This cloth was a great width for catching puke and looked very stylish! Nat has some really lovely things in her shop and for GREAT prices! Even though I can sew and could have whipped up a burp cloth of my own I really appreciate being able to purchase well made items I don't have time to make myself. I don't think I really truly appreciated buying 'handmade' from other clever folk until I started doing the Handmade Market and running my own online stores!
