Join us on August 13th, Thursday evening from 3-8pm for a great Studio Art Show. This show has an artist who takes your photos and creates Pop Art Portraits! There will be an artist who can personalize your item with your baby's finger print or foot print. Handmade jewelry, folk art and blown glass artists are in attendance. Adorable children's clothes with fun monsters and letters of the alphabet on them will be available. And I will be there with my Bada Sock Monkeys (which can be personalized with a name embroidered on its back), Bada Burps (patent pending design burp cloths), nursing covers, diaper & wipes cases and bibs!!

CPSIA closing small businesses

Please take a moment to read about this legislation. This legislation will close many mom and pop toy stores that sell handmade toys, put people out of business who make children's clothes and toys as a small business and affect the children's toy, apparel, book and resale industries.
Here are some links to sites where the topic is discussed in depth. Thank you for reading - I am not sure I will be in business after Feb 10th - we will have to see if Congress amends the legislation.
