Handmade Baby Gifts

One of the best presents you can give to a new mother are handmade baby gifts.  However, this takes time and skill, and finding enough of both of these can be difficult.  Fortunately there is an alternative, buying handmade baby gifts online can be the answer you are looking for – especially when the handmade baby gifts come from a reliable person and when they can also be sent directly to the mum!

Finding Handmade Baby Gifts

Finding the right supplier of your handmade baby gifts can be a daunting task.  If you don’t know the maker, it is hard to be sure that you are not just buying from someone with clever marketing, or that the goods are not outsourced to a third world country and handmade on the cheap!  The only way to be really sure is to either know the maker or go on recommendation, hence the reason for this article.  When my second child was born, we received a lot of hand me downs, however a kind relative and godmother, sent a lovely vest – also one of the sweetest examples of handmade baby gifts I have ever come across.

Knowing That You Really Are Getting Handmade Baby Gifts

Grandy and Baa was created by a mother, who had previously worked as a nanny and decided not to return to work once she had started her family.  She had a great talent for sewing and chose to try to use this to build a home business which would not affect her time with her children.  Her handmade baby gifts are great; she has an impressive eye for simple designs which look wonderful on kids.

There is another great touch, the designs are all named.  Each of the designs is associated with children who she has know and/ or looked after.  Sometimes it is the little touches which remind you how individual your handmade baby gifts are.

How To Buy These Handmade Baby Gifts

Grandy and Baa is based in Sydney Australia, but she will happily ship (at very reasonable prices) to anywhere in the world.

Do They Wear Well?

The all important question – do they wear well?  I so liked my Edmund Elephant and wanted to make sure that my son got as much wear out of it as possible so it got worn, washed, dried and worn again – I barely made it into the drawer.  Also I weaned my son during this time and it still survived with such vibrant colours that I am considering framing and hanging it in his bedroom as I don’t like the idea of Edmund Elephant being shut away.

Having received one of these handmade baby gifts, I am certain that any mother would appreciate them.
