I Can’t Sew, but Ponies Can
The Rocking Pony, that is. Talented mom of 4, Karen, sews cute, kitschy, original products for kids and moms using fabulous fabrics. Handmade embellished t-shirts, blankets, and diaper cases are the dominant products in Karen’s Etsy store. (If you haven’t discovered Etsy yet, you need to NOW.)
I picked out the Alien t-shirt to review for my daughter. OK - at first, I thought it was a little strange to have a fuzzy alien. But lemme-tell-you-something Fire Marshall Bill, it is a-d-o-r-a-b-l-e. She LOVES feeling the fuzzy alien face on her shirt.
Just for the Holidays, you need to get your kids this Santa penguin shirt. There’s nothing better for your kids than handmade gifts, even if you didn’t hand-make it. Karen is also happy to custom-make something just for you and your kiddo.
Karen and her family (her youngest has Down Syndrome) are actively involved with Personal Ponies, Ltd. “helping differently-abled children learn independence and confidence through the love of a Shetland pony.” So by supporting The Rocking Pony, you’re also supporting Personal Ponies. Two good things at once!
