The Hair Clip Flower

I finally put my flowers on actual hair clips, instead of bobby pins, those always slipped out of my hair. This one is my LA LAKERS flower.

One of my friends makes hair clips with really big bows and I asked her how she attaches them to the hair clip, she suggested hot glue.

This one is my MAVERICKS colored flower, I have been wearing this one for the NBA Finals support. GO MAVS! GO DIRK! :)

The Baby Girl Sweater/Cardigan

After I finished my co-workers baby girl gift set, I thought I could have made a sweater along with the other things, if I only had enough time. But who says I can't still make one?

It didn't take long to find a easy pattern to try this out, and after I put everything together it already started to look adorable.

I sewed on the corners of the sides to make it look less squared, added a few purple buttons, and of course the flower, and done.

This is going to be available on www.etsy.com/shop/dunawaycrafts along with the headband, shoes, and bib.

The Baby Girl Gift Set #1

This all started with the booties, I was asked by a co-worker to make some cute little baby girl booties in pink for a baby shower she has to go to this weekend. After a while of non-stop looking for a nice pattern and procrastinating, I found something I really liked and hoped my co-worker and future mother would too.

After I showed her the booties, she added a bib request in the same color. So I went online for a easy and quick pattern, since the baby shower was only 3 days away.

The next day she asked for a headband with a flower, like the one I made for the dolls before. 2 days before the baby shower I was sitting on the couch and crocheting the headband, making flowers and still had no idea on how I would make the booties close.
Today, 1 day before the baby shower, I learned how to make flowers and added those right away to the booties, bib, and headband, and I think it really made it all look even better. This set would fit a 3-6 month old.

The purple Cat purse

This kitty purse is for a very cute 4 year old, she chose the kitty and wanted it purple as well.

I didn't think this kitty would turn out this cute, but the purple and red actually go very well together.

I also found kitty animal eyes at JoAnns.


Two more Bunny Purses

I crochet 2 more bunnies for my friend Rachel's nieces.

The tail is really fluffy.

I think these little purses are totally cute and adorable.

The Easter Bunny Purse

This is my very first animal purse, I think it looks much cuter when you are actually holding it. I got the pattern from a book that I passed by in JoAnns.

It is not big at all, about 11 x 6 inches, but perfect for little girl things. I was carrying it around to work this morning and it was able to fit my keys, my phone and some few papers.

This face is just really adorable to not love it.

Halter Top


This halter top is to be worn on top of another shirt or tank top, it is tied in the back like a corset, you pull the back strings through the holes and tie it as you like.

This one is mine, black, red, gold - the german flag.
