Good Morning, and Happy Saturday! Thank you for tuning into the THIRTY THIRD Week of the weekly link-up series -- Small Business Saturday.

Every week there will be a shop/small business highlight with an interview, along with any specials that shop/business is running. And yes - whether you are a handmade shop owner, or another type of small business owner - you are welcome to link up! I'm welcoming co-hosts as well, so if you would like to do either or both - please, fill out this form.

Big THANK YOU to A BOW FOR MAMA who is the Sponsor of Small Business Saturday for the next month! She kindly sponsored this link-up so we can continue to have thumbnail links for each store in the link-up!

We are also in several boutiques across the country--including Miami, Atlanta, Austin, Houston, Sioux Falls, Seattle and Portland.

Shop Established: 2008


What our Shop Offers: Looking for the latest in children’s fashion trends? We offer handmade items for boys and girls from newborns on up to teenagers. Every crocheted item is uniquely crafted with your little one in mind.
Most of the items in the shop are made with 100% organic cotton.
Also--NONE of these items are manufactured in China--EVERYTHING is handmade right here in the USA!

What Inspired you to Open a Shop: For over 10 years, I’ve been reporting on air covering the top stories across the country. Right now, I’m working at the ABC News Affiliate in Miami/Fort Lauderdale.
Along with my passion for journalism, I adore crafting! Strange mix-huh? I needed a creative outlet--outside of my day-to-day job! Huggabeans allows be to express my crafty side! :)


Where we get inspiration for our Products: My Nephew! :)





What makes our shop different from other storefronts:Everything is truly handmade--with the customer in mind! I don't have a stockpile of hats... just waiting to be bought. I custom make each item--for each specific customer.
