This giveaway is now closed!
Hello, hello :)
Maria is the creative gal behind Etsy shop Curly Birdie. She crochets the most darling pairs of baby Mary Jane's. If I were a baby, I'd want to be dressed in her products. Every day, I would. Once you read through this post you'll understand why. Maria is also one of my blog sponsors. Go ahead and check out her shop. She also makes flower hair clips and hair bows. SO DARLING! :)
***
How long have you been designing/blogging? I've been designing since I was little. I was always surrounded by creativity. My grandmother was very crafty and artistic and I always watched and learned from her.
What do you enjoy most about it? I love watching an idea unravel. Starting with yarn and seeing the final process be an adorable shoe, hat or scarf is pure joy to me. I have a super busy life and to me, it's my little break, my bliss :)
Give us a little background info on yourself. I am the Mommy to three beautiful and busy girls. Isabella is 5 and in kindergarten, she is my big helper. Havana is 3 and is in preschool. She is filled with lots of personality. And Mia is 9 months and she a sweetie and an explorer. I've been married to my high school sweetheart for 8 years.
Where do you see yourself in one year? In one year my goal is to have my business grow but find a way to balance it all (is that possible?). I love, LOVE creating, but it's getting busier and busier and I'm going to be needing a very large planner soon!
Share a fun memory creating/blogging has brought you. I had to chuckle at Havana once when she decided to take all of my yarn and make a bed for herself to lay in. Clever little one!

How adorable! I have two boys, so I couldn't use them here at home. However, my 9 month old niece has Myotonic Dystrophy and her left foot is turned in. These would be perfect for her since she can't wear regular shoes comfortably.
I like the Olivia ones the best, but they are all precious!

Oh LORDY!!!!!!!!! I think I might go crazy from the cuteness of those Lola Mary Janes... and, did I mention I'm pg w/Baby girl #3 who is due in 6 weeks and 2 days?! Talk about perfect timing. Makes me wish I was decent at crocheting so that I could make about a thousand pairs...
