Creative crochet #Review

Etsy store KristizKrochet pays homage to affinity for fiber; it is stocked with handmade crochet baby photo props and hats. This googly-eyed owl beanie is delightfully imaginative. Those wispy yarn tufts are such an appropriate added bit to make it even more owl-ish!

As you can see, even-handed uniform stitches show much care put into the producing this piece. 

Not only is this hat fun, it's practical. Functionality-wise compared to knitting projects, crocheting uses more yarn which results in a denser end-result. That's why for this purpose, crocheting is the better choice in creating a heavier stretchier textile. 

Soft turquoise and grey yarn contrast pleasingly in the warm cheery beanie that I chose, but it also comes in purple. 

$20CAD will put some flair into your child's winter wardrobe!

Okay, here's the legal part where I have to say that while I was given this product compliments of the sponsor, my opinions are unbiased and free of coercion.

Cheap thrill

A guilty pleasure of mine is buying earrings off Ebay. 

I'm a sucker for studs. 

Hot

Conair Compact fabric steamer. This space-saving machine is awesome. Steaming is much quicker than traditional ironing because there's less prep, you don't have to lay garments down flat, which can be tedious for those tailored pieces. Also, it can handle polyester or silk clothes that would be ruined if you ironed because the fibers would melt and leave an unsightly mark.

Cinderella slippers

Silver glitter birdsnest jelly flats. Very pretty! Also comes in pink and black. Made it so hard for me to pick just 1!

Pretty please with a cherry on top

OASAP gifted me this über sweet cherry sweater!
