New toy

When I blogged about my birthday a couple of weeks ago, I forgot to mention the birthday present I bought myself. It might not look like much, but it made me happy:

snap setter

My very own almost-power-tool - a brand-new snap setter from Greenbeans! After borrowing snap setters from other people, I finally shelled out for one of my own. The greenbeans site sells them for putting snaps in modern cloth nappies, but I've discovered they're great for easily putting snaps in the bibs and pinafores I sell. And I'm sure there are a whole lot more uses yet to be discovered...

By the way, those piles of bibs in the photo are for my first wholesale orders. They're now making their way to Found My Way in Invercargill and Rockabye Baby in Ashburton. I've added a stockists list over on the right hand side there ---> and I'll hopefully add more shops to it in the coming few months.

I see you're already developing a bit of a snap collection too;-) Wouldn't be without my press.

Congrats on your first wholesale order! I reckon a snap press looks like a good investment- no more black nails from using the hammer!

Congrats on your wholesale orders!!!!

You'll find many uses for the snap press (though I can't remember the last time I used mine ) :-)
