5 out of 5 starsSo happy with this purchase! It's so cute, exactly as expected, and super fast/easy to order from. I loved the ability to customize the number. This was a gift and I didn't get to see it in person, but I did get awarded "most creative gift award"!

Handmade with love, by Grandma!
I’m Karen. I design and hand crochet all the items in my Grandmabilt shop. I create every item from memory, no written patterns. Happily married at age 18 to the love of my life. Born, raised and still living in New Brunswick, Canada. Blessed with three sons (daughter-in-laws) and an amazing granddaughter.
My grandmother was a very talented lady... quilting, tatting, crocheting, knitting and braiding rugs. Her hands were always moving and not once did I ever see her follow a pattern. I believe my passion for both knitting, crocheting and creating, came from Gram.
A few years ago, my husband suggested I open an Etsy shop to sell my crocheted items. Once my first hat sold, in 2012, I was hooked!
What was once my hobby is now my job, but my love to create for others has stayed the same. Deciding to grow my business came late in 2013 – I had been working at a photography studio for years, when my boss decided to close. Suddenly, I was out of a job. I decided to take my hobby one step further and focus more seriously on my craft, and now here I am!
It’s very rewarding to be able to earn income from home, doing something you love.

You will receive your item as described in the listing, so please make sure to read item descriptions carefully so you know what you're buying. Thanks!!
Payment
I am currently accepting Etsy Payments and Paypal. Once payment is recieved, I will start working on your order. All orders are custom made in the order that they are received unless the RUSH ORDER option is purchased.
You do NOT need a PayPal Account to pay for your items through PayPal. Choose the Paypal Option during checkout. After you submit your order, click the "Pay Now" button. You will see the option to pay with a credit or debit card without having to sign up for a PayPal account.
Shipping
Items are first packaged in plastic and then in one large letter mail envelope. Occasionally larger orders may need to be packages in 2 envelopes, however, I would notify you. They would be mailed at the same time, but may arrive at different times.
All items will be shipped through Canada Post. It can take up to 10 business days within Canada and 15 business days to USA to arrive. All other international orders may take longer. Contents of the package will be clearly stated on the declaration slip attached.
ATTENTION INTERNATIONAL BUYERS The shipping that I charge is strictly to pay for me to ship your item to your country, it DOES NOT cover any duties, customs fees, tariffs, taxes, etc that may be charged when it arrives in your country. You will be responsible for these extra charges. They don't always charge on items, but please be aware that you may incur additional charges on your end, thanks!
Shipping upgrades available for Canadian customers. Xpresspost or Expedited, you will receive a tracking number.
I encourage American customers to add-on tracking, at checkout, as Canada Post US shipping does not include tracking. I find that most tracked packages ship as quickly as Expedited or XpressPost.
You are welcome to ship directly to the new mom or mom-to-be, I will be happy to include a note for you!
Additional policies and FAQs
If you are willing to share photos (allowing me to use them to promote my designs) I will provide you with a coupon code to discount your next order.
WASHING INSTRUCTIONS:
All items are made of acrylic sport weight yarn that is machine washable and dryable for easy care. However, I recommend hand washing it instead.
When it is washed and rinsed, roll it in a towel and gently press the water out of it. Avoid wringing out water as this can cause stretching and damage. Reshape the piece and leave it on a dry towel to air dry.
