It’s done!

Dec. 2, 2008 No Comments Posted under: blog, products

The first ever family trivia adventure game is ready! It’s been in the works for several weeks now. The kids and I have had this on-going project for quite some time, but it is finally complete and ready for our first test run! Grandpa has the priviledge of coming over tomorrow to give it the unveiling with us! We are all so excited about this project and only look to grow and develop it further. It’s such a fantastic family fun kinda thing to do! It’s occupied MANY hours in our home! ; )

Updates to come soon!

Tis the season to start thinking about those holiday cards you send out in the mail! Each year people ponder what is the best way to wish their friends and family a ‘happy holiday’ season. It’s a tough choice, “do we just send a ready-made card?”, “do we hand-make something?”, “what about a family newsletter?”, and “is this a friend/family member that we should send a gift to?”

Nakita Baby has a wonderful solution to many of these questions. Holiday gift cards that send a holiday greeting AND act as a gift all-in-one! Handmade precious keepsakes of your little bundles of joy, wrapped up and sent to those you care about…. as an ornament!

Year after year I hear how excited people are to see what’s coming out this year! How they are thrilled to have ornaments on their tree that are personal, warm and touching! The anticipation to see how much the kids have changed from last year! This is a gift-card-ornament-greeting that will touch all of those who touch your lives.

All ornaments are hand crafted and painted details. They are extremely light-weight yet durable to be kept as precious keepsakes for your children when they are grown. All fit with in a standard size envelope therefore standard postage covers shipping.

Your Gingerbread Bundle!
Cut from craft foam, hand-painted frosting, holding a sign that wishes your loved ones the very best holiday season! (Candy cane discontinued! They get crushed in the mail! ; )

Santa’s Little Helper!
All hand-cut from felt and hand-painted details, holding a little holiday greeting banner, all mounted on a sturdy poster board.

Snowland Play Buddies!
Hand-crafted of soft felt and mounted on poster board. Hand-painted and pipe cleaner details.

Peek-a-Boo! Pop-Up Presents!
This hand-crafted design actually opens as a pop up and closes back down. Quite the cute gift wrapped in shinny wrapping paper and ribbon!

Sweetest Angels!
A gown of soft white felt based on shiny silver board for wings. Hand-painted details in glittery paint on wings, hallos and cute little toes.


Origami 101!
This rather fun ornament was hand-folded origami! Child(ren)’s photos printed strategically so that when inflated they are the center of the ornament ball! Sent flat (as pictured first) with an funny instructional card reading “Origami 101″, with the list of instructions of how to inflate their ornament and enjoy!

** PLEASE NOTE **
These ornaments make wonderful/precious keepsakes for your children for years to come! If you would simply like an ornament made as a keepsake and *not* a larger order to mail out to friends and family, please contact me to discuss! Don’t forget, they could be a wonderful holiday gift for Grandma and Grandpa as well! Nakita Baby is all about cherished memories, please contact me with your needs!
