Happy New Year!

We would like to wish all our customers a very Happy New Year when it comes.
2015 has been another amazing year for our little business and us personally. We have welcomed 2 new additions into the Baby Doodahs family with the arrivals of little Gorgie and Maisie and whilst we have been a bit quiet on our facebook page for the last wee while, whilst one or other of us have been enjoying a bit of maternity leave, we have still been very much here and are looking forward to many new and exciting things for Baby Doodahs in the new year. 
(Some new additions to our range to be announced very soon, some might involve keeping a hold of some of those cute little Christmas outfits :) )
A massive, massive thank you to all our customers for all your support and allowing us to follow our dreams and do what we love, we have truly been blown away with how much Baby Doodahs has grown this year and have genuinely lost count of how many bears and bibs we have made to date, here's to many more to come and thank you from both of us and our little munchkins.

Sorry I have been very quiet on here for the last wee while, we have been a little busy welcoming the latest addition to our little family :)
Baby Maisie was born 2 weeks ago and both she and I are doing great.
We are slowly getting back to answering all your messages and getting back on track with orders after having some much needed family time. We are a little behind where I would ideally like to be but I promise we will get caught back up and have all outstanding orders in the post very soon and thank you to all our amazing customers for their lovely messages and for being so understanding of orders taking a little longer than usual, we really do appreciate it :)

Welcome Baby Gorgie!

I realised today that we hadn't properly introduced the latest addition to the Baby Doodahs team and she is nearly 2 months old now so here she is, Lorna's new little girl and my lovely wee niece Gorgie :)
She has already been nicking her fair share of Baby Doodahs burp cloths and will no doubt be doing lots of modelling and testing of our bibs in future too.

The winner of our Facebook keepsake teddy launch competition was Stacie Tosh and she sent us her little boys clothes for us to make his bear from. So we are delighted to introduce Bodie Bear :) We loved the brilliant variety of colours in Bodies little clothes and added in some little details like the patch and star on his bottom cut from one of his little vests.

We are delighted to announce the launch of the latest addition to the Baby Doodahs line up, our keepsake teddy bears :)
The bears will be made using your little ones special little outfits and can be personalised with their name, date of birth, weight or anything else you would like.
We will pick out all the important details of your little ones special outfits and use them to create your very own special keepsake to remind you of those special early days :)

Our bears are made using an original funky friends pattern and are intended for use as a keepsake. They are not intended to be used as a toy and as such we would not recommend that they are given to children under the age of 14 as the do contain small parts.

Emmie's 2nd Birthday

19/6/2014

0 Comments

 
This week we celebrated our little Emmie's 2nd birthday, I can't believe she is 2 already, it seems like no time ago we were bringing her home from the hospital and settling into life as a little family.

We had the whole big party thing for her 1st birthday but this year we decided not to. I figure we have many years to come when she will want one so we might as well make the most of having a quiet family celebration whilst we still can. I did however want to make her a few birthday treats including the obligatory birthday cake.

When we were growing up our mum always made the most amazing hand baked and decorated cakes, from care bears to Noddy and big ears, space ships, boats and giant burgers it leaves just a little to live up to when it comes to making birthday cakes for our little ones. As we remember her home made creations so fondly I am determined to at least try to give Emmie the same memories of her mummies efforts at birthday cakes.

After a great deal of time spent trawling Pinterest for ideas I came up with a plan for a cream cheese frosted red velvet cake decorated with little hedgehogs, toadstools and mini birthday bunting. Not surprisingly the mini bunting was easily dealt with first and was no problem at all but I may have roped in my brother to help with the red velvet cake. I will admit now that it didn't come out all that red but it tasted great and I love how the cake looked all finished off with its little decorations :)
Picture
The hat was made from some scrapbook papers that I have had for ages and was made using a pattern found on Pinterest again and finished off with a little heart button and a pompom made on a fork, you don't need anything fancy to make your very own birthday hat and I think its so much nicer than a shop bought one and it actually lasted the day surprisingly well, Emmie seemed to love wearing it :)

Last up on the list of handmade goodies for my wee girls special day was a birthday badge, last year she got a couple of little badges on her birthday cards but she didn't get any this year and as we were off out to the Scottish Dear Centre for the day I wanted her to have a special little badge to show that she was now a big 2 year old. I am very good at leaving things till the last minute when they are for my own family so I must admit to getting the sewing machine out on the morning of her birthday to create this little beauty but I love how it turned out and it will be a lovely keepsake of her turning 2 and I intend to make her one for each of her birthdays and pop them away along with a picture of her wearing them for her to get out to look at when she is bigger. If you would like to order one for your little ones birthday then just send us a message :) They can be made in any colours and for any age and we can personalise them with your little ones name too if you would like.

Super Hero Capes - Something a little different :)

16/5/2014

0 Comments

 
We were recently asked to make a super hero cape for one of our customers wee girls to go along with an order of bibs for her little brother. 
We love getting requests to make something a little different from the normal and set ourselves a new challenge so we are always happy to try to make anything our customers ask us for. At Christmas time it was stockings that one customer asked us to do and one stocking turned into many, many stockings as word got around so who knows maybe we will be making a few more superhero capes very soon, we will definitely be making one for our own wee Emmie as when we popped it on her for a quick photo shoot she seemed to love it loads :)
Here's a pic of the finished cape and remember if you would like one made in your choice of style/colours or have another idea of something you would like to see us make we are always up for the challenge so please just ask.
And the best bit is hearing from her mummy that Super Bella loves her cape and is wearing it everywhere she goes, the littlest customers are always the best ones to please :)

    Baby Doodahs family :)

    We are Morvern and Lorna, 31 year old twin sisters and mummies to Emmie, Noah (both 3), Noah's little sister Gorgie (1) and the latest addition to the gang, Emmie's wee sister Maisie :)

    We started Baby Doodahs so we can work from home with our little monsters. The mummies do the sewing and the babies help by modeling and testing our products and hinder by crying, grabbing our material, and generally doing baby things.

    Here on our blog you can keep up to date with all our latest projects and we will post new fabrics we have been buying and ideas we have for upcoming projects, if anything catches your eye, give us a shout were always happy to do custom orders or design something especially for your wee one.
