Custom Orders

I just received a custom order from a repeat customer and I thought it was a great idea. I have made dozens and dozens of the little mini purses. They have so many uses. It originated with wanting to carry my own Sweet 'N' Low packets. They are business card size, can hold your own tea bags and store cards. They have been used as a presentation for a gift card. Place lip balms or first aid needs inside as well. They will even hold a small cell phone,too.

My customer wanted one to hold her medical cards and information. Here's the piece and I hope she's pleased. I love custom orders!!! Send me your ideas.

Kindness

Isn't it always easier to be kind rather than mean? Especially at this time of year?

There's a wonderful, kind elderly lady in my neighborhood who recently underwent knee replacement surgery. I wasn't told until she was already home from rehab. It was also mentioned that her cell phone case was tattered. So I immediately knit her a new one and delivered it. She was thrilled. By the way, her cell phone-the latest on the market, embarrassed me since mine is circa 2001!

I told her that I was sorry I didn't know of her surgery earlier so I could help and she dismissed my guilt with a wave of her hand. Now she has invited about 20 ladies,myself included, to a thank you luncheon. Too sweet. Too kind. What a dear she is. Sadly she'll be moving soon to be closer to her son and his family. I hope they appreciate her kindness. I do!
