What better way to welcome spring then to introduce you to the Etsy store, "Something For Squirt"! This bright and unique Etsy shop just says "Happy Spring" as you find all the items to add to your Easter shopping basket!!
Adorable spring clothing, and toys to put in the children's Easter baskets! Appliques to sew on to your children's new spring clothing, or make that hand-me down look new!!
Whether you are shopping for bibs and onesies for baby or a t- shirt, teddy bear, doll or custom library bag, you can find a perfect spring gift at "Something For Squirt"!!
And if you do not see the size or color you need/want, "Something For Squirt" will custom make you one! "Something for Squirt" sells beautiful, handmade dolls! The "Betsy" doll is absolutely adorable! I know my girls would love her! And my oldest would love the Mia doll (below)! I can imagine a lot of play time with her!
I was so excited when we received our package from, "Something For Squirt"! I love books and the children have tons of books, so we really love the book bag! Plus when we start going to the library it will sure come in handy then too!
And the apple t-shirt is just darling! My children love apples and this is such a cute design! A great spring and summer shirt! It is already one of those shirts that my youngest wants to wear all the time!
Now I want to buy some of the appliques at "Something For Squirt" so I can make some shirts too! Would make great gifts!

Meet Our Featured Etsy store and Owner!
Here is what the owner of "Something For Squirt" shared with us about her and her store:

What inspired the name of your Etsy store?
My mum used to affectionately name most little people (including my youngest sister) "squirt", and so this caught on when I had my first child. And this is where my label started, because everything I make is for children.

What inspired you to open your Etsy store?
I've always sewn, but once my first child was born, my focus became on all things cute and unique for him. Then my sister had twin girls and that unleashed a full on sewing obsession! I started to receive compliments and soon after, my friends and family were requesting "orders". That's when I realised the need for these kind of unique handmade treasures, and i stumbled across Etsy and gave it a go!

Would you like to share a little bit about yourself?
Well, I'm a mummy, to two beautiful boys. I am a home day carer during the day and and OBSESSIVE sewer at night! I have so many ideas in my head that i could sew something new everyday for the rest of my life and probably still not fulfill my creative urges! I started sewing when I was about four? My mum would make all of our clothes, and I would sit beside her winding away on the old school "singer". My designs are quirky and unique, but treasures nonetheless.


Now for the Giveaway!
One winner will receive Prudence the Teddy Bear!
This is Prudence. She has big cheeks and a heart to match. Standing 19 inches high, she has a soft mink fur and cotton print outer, and is filled with new polyester stuffing and stuffing beads in her feet. She is a light caramel colour with a contrast of white, brown and yellow floral print. She was handmade from my original design at my pet free, smoke free home. Her nose is hand stitched and her eyes are black plastic safety eyes (PLEASE NOTE that safety eyes do not guarantee safety for babies or small children as little teeth may be able to rip them from the fabric!!)
