Custom Order–Portable Booster Seat

It has been a while since I posted a custom order….
A friend of mine had seen a portable booster seat online and asked me to make one for her brother and sister-in-law, who are having a baby. I was up for the challenge, and there is the end result:

(please excuse the doll… ;)}
The beauty of this seat is that you can take it anywhere, as it fits in your diaper bag. It also fits on pretty much any chair out there, and you can wash it (because little people never keep things clean).
It fastens at the front with an adjustable strip of Velcro, so it can be used for most any size child.
And, I can make one for you too!!! Once you have tried one, you will want one to gift for your friends as well!!! :)

Because these are my new favorite items in the shop, I thought I would devote a post just for them. :)

These taggie blankets are the perfect little blankets for any little {or not-so-little} girl to take in the car, to bed and anywhere else.

Thanks to Jacinda for giving me the first idea, and for encouraging me to run with it. She also asked me to make my first custom order. Praying you little new one will be able to wear something I made.
 
Thanks to Meagan for desiging the header and avatar and helping me get things set up. You did an amazing job. She gets something special for her boys in return, and is making me learn something new in the process.
 
Thanks to those who have asked me to do custom orders. You are the greatest, and I love designing things especially for you and your little ones.
 
Thanks to my siblings, you are the ones who were the recipients of my first outfit adventures. I wish I could make you more than I do {it is usually PJ pants... hmm, I should step it up}.
