Hmmmmm….

May 21st, 2007

Why is it that some people can’t take their own pictures? They have to steal someone elses. First they buy an item from you and copy it, then they steal your picture and use it in their auction. What happens when their buyers do a chargeback through paypal for ‘item not as described’? Because it really is not as described, since it was my picture she used to show off a copy of my item.

Anyway, we had bets going on how fast ebay would take to remove those auctions. To our surprise, they were actually pretty quick, about 15 minutes. The sad part was that the thief’s been using my picture in her auctions for months and months and I didn’t even know it until one of her own buyers emailed me Well everybody knows it now. If you want to know her ebay ID, drop me a line ;). If you have a thief story, email me and I’ll post it on my blog. Although not too many people visit here, so your story might not be heard, but we can have a laugh. I find things like that to be quiet amusing.

Ok, enough about that. We have new fun colours and new pictures with my ebay ID embedded on them, so please feel free to swipe them now, I’d love the advertisement!!

Please take a peek

First we have a pair of Mary Janes. These are my favourite booties. They are plain, but dressy and go well with everything.

Second is a pair of Fancy Sandal Booties. These are perfect for the summer to show off her little piggies!!

XOXOXO,

WOW…. it’s definitely been a while

April 24th, 2007

since I’ve posted anything. One thing I can say right now is whatever you do, do not register your domain with Bravenet. They don’t email you to tell you what’s going on, they just turn it off and then make you pay for it even though it’s been prepaid for 5 years on advance. Then when you email them, they make up all sorts of excuses and take 2 weeks to fix it.

Good thing it happened while I was away in Ontario and wouldn’t have been able to make anything anyway. But if you are serious about your business, then STAY AWAY from BRAVENET.

On a lighter note…. I’ve just purchased 2 rentals at the same time. Just trying to think if it was a good decision and if I can afford it hehe. Even my real estate agent thought I was crazy. I guess we’ll find out within the next few months. Looking for a place to rent!?!?!?

Speaking of booties… Yes, the very main reason why I started this blog in the first place. They are still there. Have you tried etsy yet? http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=53918 I personally love it!!! Move over ebay… well maybe not yet. http://stores.ebay.com/Kneat-Heaven-Baby-Boutique?refid=store. And of course there is my website http://kneatheaven.com.

For something different yet the same…. It’s not a secret that cowboy booties are probably my best seller and I’ve made them in lots of different colour combination, however this was a first for me… a tulip bonnet in Tampa Bay Lightning colours, well maybe minus the pink. Take a peek, I was rather pleased with the way it turned out.  Click on the picture to see the actual item.

Enjoy your day, it’s going to be a nice one here in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

I have soooooo much…

October 31st, 2006

yarn!!!  We were moving my yarn around and there is so much, I could open a store with itjacket3.JPG and have enough supplies to last me for a few months.  In order to get rid of my yarn stash, I’ve decided to make something new, something other than booties since they don’t require too much yarn.  I do have a few orders right now, but to get away from booties for awhile, I made a little jacket.  I think it turned out cute.  Please click on the picture to see more.  And who said acrylic is not nice to the skin, of course some aren’t, but I love this one.  It’s made from baby softee yarn.  It’s much nicer than sugar and cream cotton in my opinion.  SSSOOOOFFTT and snuggly!!!

New Booties

October 24th, 2006

A few days ago I was cleaning up my notions stash and found things I didn’t think I had. Inrosedec1.JPG order to bring that stash down, I’ve decided to make booties with random decorations.  Some will be OOAK and some will be limited quantities until these decorations run out.  So the first one so far is a pair of rosebud booties. Please click on the picture to the right to see the full pre-view.  I also have these rosebuds in periwinkle, red and yellow.  I might have some lavender too, not sure on that one.

flower6c.JPGAnother new addition is a pair of crocheted flower booties.  I like making flowers, so why not add them to the booties. Click on the picture to the right to see the listing.

New ebay auction

October 16th, 2006

flowerclip2.JPGSomething new!!  Ok, it’s not really new.  I’ve made lots of these flowers in the past, but never in these colours.  I wanted to match Gymboree’s new line.  The green is kind of off, but that’s all I could find in my stash.  I actually made these flowers just so I could take a picture of something on aflowerbon1c.JPG bonnet and off to ebay they went.  Please click HERE to visit the auction!!  I also have them on our website and of course they can be done in any colours you like.  Click HERE to go to our website.

It’s here!!!

morganhat.jpgThe big orange Cabbage Rose!! I don’t know why it makes me happy, but
it does :). It’s probably because it was a special collaboration with my ebay friends Shirley and Tammy. It was all Shirley’s idea though and I’m glad I went with it. Doesn’t Morgan look adorable?!?!? Please click on the picture of Morgan to visit our auction.

The hat is also available on my website HERE!! Matching socks are listed HERE!!rosebudbon2.jpg

We also have another addition to our website and it’s a pair of Rosebud socks. They were made to match my Rosebud Bonnet.

On a different note. I found a new yarn shop last week. It was very late and it was closed. The hours were 10-5, so I couldn’t get there until today (a week later on the weekend). It was the best yarn shop I’ve ever been to. I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada and we have lots of yarn and craft shops around, but until you’ve been to this one, you have not seen it all. There were yarns that I recognized and some I’ve never seen before and I’ve seen lots of yarn, not to mention the colour selection…. WOW!!! I wanted to buy it all :). Needless to say I’m definitely going back.
I also have to mention the atmosphere of that store. It’s down in a basement and it looks like a yarn addict’s living room. If you are addicted to yarn, then you know what I’m talking about. There was yarn everywhere- on the floor, in bins, just all over the place. Pattern books were all over the place. There are couches right in the middle of the room and people just sit there and knit. It was great!!! And with that, I’m able to offer all of my hats in any colour you like made from either baby yarn or Egyptian cotton yarn.

New Set

August 1st, 2006

New creations

July 19th, 2006

I couldn’t just stop at one large rose, so I made 3 all together in different colors. Please see the white one in the previous post and also pink and red that I’ve just listed on ebay. They are all hand crocheted by me from cotton thread. The roses took a lot longer to make than the bonnets. You can visit the auctions by clicking on pictures in this post.

There is also a new pair of booties to match Gymboree’s An Apple a day layette. I was originally going to call this pair Appleragious, but realizing that they were not going to have any apples on them, I’ve settled for the Flower Twist.

And one more addition to the Limited Edition Collection - a Country Bear Barrette. I only have enough beads for 3 barrettes, so if you like it, please buy it now. The shipping charge will be combined, so if you are buying more than one item from our blog, the difference in shipping will be refunded.
