Last Minute Graduation Gifts from Crickets

Yesterday, at CricketsHome I received a last minute throw blanket order for a graduation gift (thank you, Marilyn!).  It was Monday and Marilyn needed it by Friday. 

My customers are often in a hurry when they order from me: "Help!  The baby was born yesterday!  We need photography blankets by the end of the week!" 

That's why I keep as much inventory as possible made up in advance and on hand, ready to ship.  Even for custom orders, I often knit up popular components ahead of time, so just a little bit of custom assembly or fringe choices can be quickly implemented.

So when Marilyn ordered Monday morning, I was able to use a brown blanket that I'd already made.  I added custom fringe and it was ready to go that afternoon!  Now with any postal luck, she'll have it in New York in plenty of time.

If you're under a time crunch, please just let me know your deadline and I'll do what I can do send your goodies out post haste! :)

Oh and would you like to see that blanket (I love how it turned out)?

Thank you, "see" you soon!

Mix and Match Multiples - Best Baby Wraps from Crickets

Six weeks ago, I wrote explaining how I am closing BabyBirdz, one of my too-many online shops to make more time for YOU and creating!

Click this sentence to read the past message and moving sale offer.

I offered a set discount on my baby prop lacy wraps and thanks to enthusiastic response cleared out 55 listings; we're getting there! :)

Now I'm upping the ante with mix-and-match sets of any five or more wraps and/or EnCircle™ baby loops!  I'll explain the deal in a moment...

First, here are a few new photos with the wraps, generously shared by pioneering photography customers Amy Odom and Lindsey Marie:
"I use those wraps in every newborn shoot!!"
"I love your wraps!  Thank you for making beautiful things."

And here is a collage of those irresistible little loops which I've named EnCircles™ (to read their debut announcement please CLICK HERE):

Now for the discount details!  The deal was:
  • Wraps would be only $25 each when ordered as a set of 5 or more
  • EnCircles would be only $20 each when ordered as a set of 5 or more
The new deal:
  • Mix and match any five wraps and/or EnCircle baby loops to make your custom set.  
For example, choose 3 wraps for $25 ea and 2 EnCircles for $20 ea to make a set of 5 total. Or get 5 wraps. Or 5 EnCircles™. Or any other combination. It's YOUR choice! :D

Photographer Shelley Deneau writes about her mixed set of four EnCircles and three wraps: "I got my stuff today! Omg. I love, love it all!  So soft and fuzzy and beautiful and gorgeous and....
"

So how do you get your mix-and-match set? Please either email me or call me at 435-689-0907 and then I'll reserve special listings for you! :) 

Oh and did I mention $5 flat rate shipping to anywhere in the world?  Oh yeah! ;) 

Thank you so much; I'm nothing without your support!
