Update - Wedding Banner

You may remember this post about a custom banner being given as a wedding present. Well the buyer sent me a picture of the banner being displayed with the wedding cake. Again, I think this is such a great gift to give as a wedding present. I wish I had thought of it when all my friends were getting married.



Congrats again, Amber & Alex!
(PS - your cake looks delicious!)

Custom Birthday Banner


I'm often asked if it's possible to add a name to the "Happy Birthday" banners. Yes, it is possible. But unless your name is "Ed" or "Pam", it's going to quickly become a long banner.

Here's an alternative approach. For this custom order, I created a separate name banner made from the same material used for the "Happy Birthday" banners. This way the banners match, but the birthday banner isn't too long and can also be used for other members of the family!

I hope you have a great birthday, Elijah!

Shout Out! - TinyTangerines



Warmer weather means Milena can wear her cute hats from Tiny Tangerines again!

I'm partial to the kitty hat, since I've actually wanted one like it for years. But both are super cute and warm! The braids are long enough that I can tie them under Milena's chin and then again behind her head so she doesn't try to pull on them or put them in her mouth. She wore them often last fall, and they still look good as new this spring!

Check out TinyTangerines.etsy.com for more adorable crocheted hats! They're available in sizes from newborn to adult for boys and girls.

I think I may need to get Milena the Brown Owl Hat next time!

CLOSED!

I have to close the shop down for a few weeks. I'm having surgery on my eyelid in a few days, and am going to take some time off to recover.

Underduck will reopen at the end of March, so check back then!

Shout Out! - Cliposaurus



Milena just received these adorable hair clippies from Cliposaurus! I love them! Such great colors, and they stay put in Milena's hair. The pink ribbon will be perfect for when we walk in the Race for the Cure later this year.
