Dinosaur-Hat-Unisex-All Sizes-Any Color-Made to Order

Crocheted, dinosaur hat. Rawwwwr!
MADE TO ORDER.
I can make these in any color! Please specify the color you need in a message during checkout.
I can also make these in any size! Please specify the size you need: preemie, newborn, infant, toddler, child, teen or adult.

Size Chart (Rough Estimates): Age/Head Circumference:

Preemie/Newborn (0-1 month): 12”-14”
Infant 0-6 months: 14”-17”
Infant 6-12 months: 16”-19”
Toddler/Small Child (12 months-3 years): 18”-20”
Child (3-10 years): 19”-20 ½ “
Pre-Teen/Teen/Adult-Small/Regular (Woman): 21 ½” – 22 ½”
Adult-Medium/Large (Men): 23” -24”

How to Measure the Circumference of Your Head: Place a tape measure around your head and wrap it over the largest part of your head, slightly above the eyebrows and ears.


IMPORTANT: Please allow at least one week for me to complete custom/handmade orders, two weeks at the most. In some cases however, completion may take over two weeks depending on my work load and difficulty level of pattern, more so during the holidays. Please contact me if you need a custom order completed by a specific date, so we can work it out. Once payment clears, I will purchase the materials needed to start on your custom order. In most cases, I have the materials in stock. Please keep in mind that it can take up to 2-5 business days for banks to process and post payment, therefore delaying the process and completion time of your order. For faster processing time, I suggest making an instant payment via PayPal.

Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Blue & Silver Cuff Bracelet With Faux Leather Backing And Native American Inspired Tribal Thunderbird Design



This handcrafted cuff bracelet has a beautiful Southwestern-Tribal flair. Special emphasis was placed on the Native American beadwork styled details of this beaded bracelet. Maintaining the love of the traditional beadwork pattern, this loom bracelet is given a modern look with the addition of silver edging and accents.

Each bracelet is created one at a time with loving craftsmanship and respect for my Native heritage. Created on a loom using only seed beads, needle and thread, in a few short hours gives way to a detailed intricate piece of beaded artwork.

The loom bracelet strip is then hand-sewn to a piece of faux white leather over an aluminum cuff blank. The faux leather is an excellent replacement for real leather due to the animal friendliness and better cost that can be passed along to the consumer. The aluminum cuff provides easy customization and pain-free wearing, as it is bendable to each unique person's wrist.

This particular style of beaded cuff bracelets measures 5/8" X 6 1/2". The white faux leather is easily cleaned by using a damp cloth.

This is a "made to order" item, so colors may vary slightly from the photos. This also means that each item is hand-crafted especially for each person as the orders are placed. My current turn-around time is 2-3 weeks, but I strive to beat that time frame and ship as early as possible.

Great Gifts To Give List 42


Good Morning,


Tuesday's are usually devoted to five items from around the web that would make great gifts.  

Today, I want to share another type of gift, something you can give to help another in their time of need.  There are lots of worthy charities, causes and other local groups and organizations in your area that are happy to take a donation.

ASPCA
You can make a monetary donation on line (just 60 cents a day can help a dog or cat) or perhaps visit or call your local shelter and ask if there is anything they may need, Pet Food, blankets, toys, perhaps a small monetary donation for things like medicines.  Let's not forget those less fortunate this year.

http://pets3000.com/images/cats/cats-38.jpg



ONE WARM COAT

http://www.onewarmcoat.org/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/images/logo.png
This site is geared towards kids, not everyone has a coat to keep them warm, especially children as they grow out of them so fast.  The link will take you to the site map, where, if you wish, you may type in your zip code to find a place to make your own coat donation.  Warm your heart by warming up a child with a coat this year.


Toys For Tots 


http://www.lionandbull.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/toys-for-tots.jpg

From the site link you can make a monetary donation, ask for a toy for a child, or find / host a Toy Drive.

American Red Cross
http://www.redcross.org/images/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m6340297_514x260-logo.jpg

There are many ways to assist, the link will take you to their "Ways To Help" page and find out how to:
Donate
Fund-raise
Talk / Teach / Host a Class
Volunteer
Get involved with a local group organization.
Every little bit helps.


This last one you'll have to do on your own.  Every once in a while lists are printed, published or put out somewhere for Seniors in Need, this could be anything from a bottle of lotion, to a warm blanket or any small item that may be beyond a Senior's means.  I encourage you to look though your local papers, open the phone book and find a hospice or other Senior Care facility, give them a call, make a note, then choose a Senior or several and purchase those small items that may be needed. It will make you feel good, and you will be giving the Senior a gift of more than just lotion.

Thank you for stopping in and having a look.

The Alchemists Vessel would like to wish you a pleasant day.

Good Morning,

Today we have five Great Gift suggestions from the members of Road to Success on Etsy. The post will be a bit different today, as Etsy has changed their site entirely and things no longer as they once did.

Shop and item links will still take you to the shop and the item, but only the main photo will be available to view on the blog, sorry about that.

School is in! I know some of you parents must be relieved and a little sad with the advance of a new grade or school for your little one. Let's see what's cool for back to school.

Featured Artist - A Bead Thing

Good Morning,

Today I am honored to share the work of a very talented and very busy lady, Pam Andrews of A Bead Thing.  You have met Pam before here on the blog, and she still creates some wonderful items.  Showcasing her items on Handmade Aritsts, it is always a pleasure to see my friend's new work in the listings on the home page or reading her funny and poignant posts in the forum.

Pam has expanded her talents beyond jewelry and has Incorporated quilling into her artists repertoire.  Quilling is the art of curling paper and forming three dimensional sculptures.  Pam has updated this art by using it to make hair accessories.  Clever!

Pretty in Pink Paper Flowers

Product Details:
This hair clip is created using the age old art of quilling and I have used 1/4 inch paper strips in a variety of colors ranging from dark pink to coral to simulate the various colors and stages of flowers bloom.  Flower is attached to 1.5 inch alligator clip and glass pearl beads have been added for beauty and dimension. 
Flower has also been coated for durability and it will withstand damp hair but of course stay out of the rain showers.
Custom orders accepted.


Handcrafted Chenille Princes Necklace

Product Details:
Handmade lovely princess length necklace created using a "chenille" stitch. This is very similar to the herringbone stitch, using 15/0 seed beads in "matte teal" and "metallic brass".  Necklace is 19 inches from clasp end to clasp end.  A flared filigree bead cap has been modified to form around the end of the neckace on either end to attach the clasp. This necklace is lightweight and flexible and will be a joy to wear or give as a unique handmade gift.
 
The blog ring theme this time around is Emerald Green, and this bracelet is really amazing and very pretty with the green surrounded by the gold.
