Custom "Kicks" by Keds
In real life...I am not much of a shoe person...in fact, I think I own 5 pairs....
- two sandals (I wear daily) - both strappy Tevas (better than barefoot...LOVE THEM!)
- 1 "fancy" shoe...simple black pump for weddings...and extra-special date nights.
- 1 gym shoe...aka: "pretending to go to the gym shoe"
- and....drum roll, please...my classic red converse sneaks. (I don't wear these shoes often - but they are really the only ones I am passionate about...because they scream "Traci").
With the launch of Zazzle's new Ked's shoe creation tool...I am suddenly a shoe-freak!
Today, I made a pair of cherry shoes, funky flower shoes, motivational shoes & modern daisy shoes.
Tonight, I will be working on "alligator foot" shoes...and "pretty princess shoes"...custom design requests from my kiddos....
I've never, ever been so shoe-addicted in my life...
Here are a few of my recent creations. Drop a line in the comments box if you have some other fun ideas....
Nothing Says "Thank You" Like a Pretty Chocolate Bar
I am on a diet (actually - I am in sugar-rehab for a few months) so naturally, I head straight for the "candy" category while perusing Etsy.com this evening. Here's what I found....
...a perfectly packaged Dove chocolate bar ready to send to your favorite blogger (e-mail me for my address). =)

Super Sweet! Felt Baby Booties
I was just watching Reality TV...and surfing Etsy (my two favorite things to do in the evenings) when happened upon these sweet little felt baby booties. I've was always a big fan of "Robeez" for my kids but frankly, I am liking these handcrafted felt versions much better.
Now I just need to decide between the cream leaf pattern or baby bunny design for my little niece (who should be arriving from Ethiopia with her new mommy any day now).
The price is also very reasonable at $20.00 per pair.

Loving This! Safety Tats - Adorable Identification Tattoos for your Child
I literally found this website a few hours after scraping a Fourth of July flag tattoo off of my daughter's arm. The darn thing stayed on for three days!
Now, I am having one of those...slap the forehead - why didn't I think of that? - moments. (I think I have a permanent forehead bruised from all of the brilliant things *other* moms have thought of).
Anyway - this one is one of the brilliant-ist by far. =)
I used to be a social worker and spent much of my summer retrieving young children who wandered from home or who got lost at a park or carnival.
It never failed...even the children who probably rehearsed their name and phone numbers with a parent over...and over...got cases of stage fright.
What's your name? "um - I don't know".
What's your mommy's name? "um - mommy".
Where do you live? "In a blue house".
We always found the rightful owners to the wayward children...however, it is nice not to spare a moment (or a trip to the police station) while looking for a parent.
I am buying a few "tats" as we speak. They are stinkin' cute, plus - they last over a week. (If they are anything like the flag tattoo - they'd probably last until the child hits jr. high).
