Declan - what a stunner!



Do you remember the set I made for the Gossamer Dreams stocking? Well, here is the ever so gorgeous Declan, the recipient! His mama should be so proud of him - she really is a sweetheart!

Thankyou Kellie for sharing, I love seeing Beetlebums in action!!

My new Onbu!



I made this Onbuhimo about two weeks ago now, it is just my old 'Meltai' design that I tweaked to make it into an Onbu, and I seriously like it! This just might make it into the Beetlebums repertoire!

Onbuhimos are great because there is no waistband to dig into my (rather rounded) tummy - I haven't been able to stand anything tight around my waist since before I even knew I was pregnant! This has been a lifesaver for me, it means that I have super quick, comfortable on-off Taj wearing action, even while I'm at a physically uncomfortable time...

Speaking of pregnancies - as of tomorrow I am 11wks! So happy to be a little further along than we realised, and really cherishing the 'peace' we have right now. I feel like my energy is returning more and more and I've got lots of special Beetlebum action planned - including the next carrier stocking!!! YAY!

on the upside

Ah, feeling a little more 'up' at times now - and have just about finished the pre-orders (YAY I hear you say!)!!!! They WILL be leaving here in two batches, some tomorrow and the rest over the weekend. I've got a couple of other things to get through too, which I'm really excited about!

Its been a really interesting first trimester (I think I'm still in my first tri LOL!), apart from the fact that I have no idea how far along I am, I've never been so tired and nauseous before!! My two previous pregnancies were those dreamy, bouncy and effervescent types of pregnancies... Oh well, karma probably needed to kick me for running so far behind :(.

Thankyou again so so so so much for your incredible patience (those awaiting their Beetlefluff). Mwah!

Oh, and I'm currently in the process of moving all email correspondence to my business email address - which is mel@beetlebums.com.au. It will be a gradual transition, just thought I would let y'all know :).
