Heidi Handmade

Heidi Handmade is taking a brief break from making, taking orders, teaching, and posting while I take some time to learn the ropes of being a new mom! But have no fear! I will be back, hopefully in time for Christmas! Shoot me a message if you are looking for Christmas/winter gifts/items, and I'll return your request asap.

Only have k***s but still want to hang a hand towel??? Well, problem solved! This morning, I crafted a new style of hanging hand towels! Inspired by our need for a place to hang hand towels in our bathroom at our new house!

Didn't have a travel change mat for my diaper bag, so I made one! Made with a layer of water-repellent material for easy wiping and surface protection, a cozy interior batting for comfort and an eye-catching cotton exterior.

Teaching other moms provides great opportunities for me to make things for our baby girl! Found this super cute flannel and made baby girl a bed sheet 💜🩵🩷

Thank you once again, Instagram, for cutting off photos 🤦‍♀️

New project, and I love them! Currently, one is being used for lint and the other for clothes pins in my laundry room 👌. The lint pod is made with a 'recycled' (the liner of a matteess cover that got ripped during a move) slippery liner, so the lint will dump right out when full! These are a great way to organize without taking up drawer/floor/counter space.

Might have to make a couple cute ones for baby girl's room!

Remaining hotpad and bowl cover sets! Always able to make custom items, message me to line something up!

Hot pads are 8" with double batting.

Bowl cover sets are 3 sizes
Small (6-7in bowl)
Medium (7-9in bowl)
Large (9-11in bowl - also covers a 9 in pie plate with rim)

Hanging hand towels stock update!! Thanks to Instagram cutting off their photos this is attempt number 2! Phew. Anyone who has used these, absolutely loves them!

New spring collection added. The Halloween pumpkins glow in the dark, which is so fun!

More seasonal themed towels in the works, so stay tuned!

Made one of those trendy carseat covers! TBD on how useful these are, moms? Also, it doubles as a nursing cover, change pad, and apparently is great for covering shopping cart seats👌Excited to give it a whorl 👶🤰🍼

Another sewing class success! And this time, I remembered to take a couple photos!! 👍
Had a great time making things for baby with these mommas!

One spot left!!

Next class, April 20th! And it's baby themed!! One spot left!!

Another new item, custom made by order. These are "bowl covers" for mason jars. Such a cute way to fancy up a mason jar, and practical too!

Bowl covers can be made to size, and possibly any shape! DM me if you're in search of a custom size, color, pattern, shape of bowl cover!

The photo says it all!

Here in the Heidi Handmade studio, I've had a bit of non-sewing fun! Homemade lip balm with my own recipe and soy wax candles (and natural deodorant, not pictured here)! A couple friends joined me for the candle and deodorant making part!

I can say that I likely won't buy lip chap again (Except maybe the one with spf in it, we'll see). Even my husband likes it for these dry winters we have here in AB! Made with moisturizing Shae and mango butters and peppermint essential oil to give that zing we love.

I've really been trying to clean out a lot of the everyday chemicals we encounter in our lives, and so far I'm learning that sometimes, even homemade is better! It's certainly more satisfying. Sometimes, it's more expensive to start up, but once you are going, it's much more affordable in the long run. And I just love doing it. Next on the diy adventure, homemade exfoliating scrub.

Gifts for babies and young children! Stock update! Anything with an "x" is sold out, most blankets are down to one left!

Get your Christmas shopping done early and locally! Handmade items are the perfect gifts for those special people in your lives.

The baby blankets (next to my towels) are my best sellers! Make it a set and grab some burp cloths and drool bibs!

Because Instagram cuts off photos when they are different sizes, I'll be posting put my stock updates in batches!! Anything with an "x" is gone, anything with a 1, is the last one left!

Get your Christmas shopping done early and locally! Handmade items are the perfect gifts for those special people in your lives.

Get ready for a cuteness overload!! 🥰💙🩵

This is Leo, my super adorable nephew, enjoying his blanket, sporting his drool bib and dada staying dry with his burp cloth.

Another stock update!

Hanging handtowels. Seriously, you have no idea how great these are until you've tried one!

They make excellent little gifts and check out the winter and Christmas stock!! Just in time for the holidays.

Swipe for everyday towels and easter/Halloween!

Reminder, deliver to NB coming December 14th!

Winter and Christmasy table runners!

Here are a few that are already made up! Shoot me a message if you are interested in these or looking for a custom runner!

Burp cloth & bib update!

Burp cloths, double sized flannel for perfect absorbancy.

Bibs
Most are backed with Terry cloth, so are great for keeping that baby dry! Change the bib instead of the whole outfit, right?
Some are double-sided knit (similar to jersey cotton). These are still absorbant but slightly thinner, so they won't last as long as the ones backed with towel.

Glow-in-the-dark hand towels anyone??

Happy Halloween!! 🎃👻

Can you make bowls that fit shallow, wide-top bowls??

You bet I can!

Another order ready to go!

Sometimes I find material that is so soft and cute that I can't resist!

Also, apparently these are called "neck gaiters". Learn something new everyday 🤷‍♀️

It's that time of year!!

If you are looking for a cute, fun hat for that special kiddo (s) in your life, get your orders in early so I have time to make them for you!!

If you don't see a creature that you like, send me a message! I'm sure I can make what you are looking for! Currently working on a bear 🐻and cow🐄!

Reminder: free delivery to NB in December 😊
