So many changes!

Writer's picture: laclairecreationslaclairecreations

A new year comes with many changes. One of my goals this year is to post regularly to keep everyone updated on the latest changes and services at LaClaire Creations. Here are just a few of what we are beginning to implement.


Gift cards should now be available for purchase! Do you know someone who enjoys handcrafted items but you are unsure what to have us make for them? Feel free to contact me via email at laclairecreations@gmail.com or call 316-841-3028 to brainstorm ideas.


A new service that will soon arrive is bookbinding and repair! My husband is crafty in his own right and has been practicing fixing and rebinding books. He is working on a project for his sister, rebinding an old copy of Uncle Tom's Cabin and a Star Wars storybook. Pictures and updates will come as he progresses.


I have been working to catch up on orders from December since I came down with pneumonia shortly after receiving them. One of the orders included winter gear for a toddler and her school-age brother. Instead of creating just a set of hats for the toddler, I found a delightful pattern for a cowl that would provide head coverage and scarf-like protection for her throat. I hope she's enjoying playing in the snow with them. Her brother wanted a traditional hat, gloves, and scarf set and preferred the colors of blue and green. It's easy enough to incorporate both colors, but a little twist for the hat was to make it reversible instead of just adding a stripe or decorative detail. Mom texted me after delivering the order to let me know her son didn't even wait to get home before putting on all his gear!


I am finishing the other order for a couple of hats, gloves, and scarf sets. One set is a new set of patterns adapted from the Adelaide stocking hat pattern. I'll post in the store with the finished pictures of the set. I might even need to make another set for myself. I love it so much!


That's about it for now. I am thinking of setting up a Patreon or monetizing my blogs in the future. Please leave your thoughts on this in the comments or message me! I know I have a few regular visitors and would like to honor them somehow. FYI, if you are an international customer, I do ship worldwide. It is expensive, but I would love to connect beyond my local community.


Shine on and be kind until next time!
