It’s almost time to go back to school and lookey at all the goodies available from pencil cases to backpacks, ruffled shirts and pants to eco-friendly lunch and snack bags. I’ve rounded up some of the most adorable handmade items to help your little one standout in a crowd (and look cute doing it too!)
Who doesn’t fall in love with their first pencil case? Check out all the pretties available at Lifestyle with Love’s shop. The Lifestyle with Love web site went live recently and it’s so dang cute! Lots to love in the shop, sign up for the newsletter to get shop updates right to your inbox!
Is your little boho princess ready to get back to class? Check out those denim ruffle pants and the peasant blouse is so sweet!! Ginger Louise Clothing has some really darling ensembles going on in their shop.
This backpack quilted in Michael Miller’s Carnival Bloom fabric really stands out! You can find it on Etsy in Grussell Design’s shop. The interior is pink polka dot on a chocolate brown background, perfect!
How sweet is this little eco friendly lunch bag by Rosy und Posy!? I love this shot with the granny smith apples! Check out her reusable snack bags too, brilliant!
Nothing says smart like argyle and these ribbon hair clips by Olibella have quite a high IQ! There’s a set of apple and pear ribbon clips available in the shop as well, they would be fun to mix and match.
Don’t you love this Kokka’s Matryoshka Doll print fabric!? Here it’s been transformed into a lovely Mini Laptop Sleeve by Berties Closet. Looking for a bigger laptop sleeve? No problem, there’s 13″ one in Amy Butler’s Daisy Chain in Sweet Jasmine fabric, click here to see it.
It still cracks me up when my friend’s tell me about their kids cell phones! This cell phone purse from Just For You Creations is too cute, it could also double as an MP3 player holder. There’s a neat owl quilted notebook cover available on the site as well, it fits a standard 7 1/2″ x 9 3/4″ composition note book (remember those?-wink!)
