Just a quick note to say thank you so much for supporting Bits & Bobs 4 Bubs throughout 2013. I have had so many lovely customers with custom orders and had a few challenges along the way which have kept me very busy.
I have so many things that I want to make for you all next year and can’t wait to share them with you. Merry Christmas too you and your families and I look forward to a fantastic 2014.

Looking for something to stuff in your stockings, well why not one of these adorable tooth fairy pillows. Place them on the door handle of your little ones bedroom or hang them on the end of the bed so that the tooth fairy can replace the old tooth with some shiny loot!
Or why not one of these hand drawstring bags. They can be used to store toys, like blocks and lego. Use them as library bags or for the little ones kindy sheets. And don’t forget a sleepover, pop in their clothes/PJ’s along with they cuddle toy.
All items are available in the Made it store and ready to be shipped, so get in quick for Christmas!!!!!

A dear friend of mines little Miss Grace had her 1st birthday on Friday and today we helped celebrate this little ladies birthday along with her Big Brother who turned 2 yesterday as well. And I just had to have a go at making her a little outfit along with a matching felt doll that seems to be all the craze at the moment.
I also added a little bag as she loves walking around with one on her little shoulder just like her mummy. The pinafore and nappy cover are both reversible and you can find the tutorials along with the patterns here, here and here (the nappy cover tutorial is not reversible I changed it so that it was).
The little bag is just something I whipped up and will do a tutorial for you very soon. The crochet flower on the bag and hair clip was made by me as well.
Hope you are all having a lovely weekend.

I have been really slack on the blog with promoting the showcase I am taking part in to raise money for breast cancer. I have donated 2 of my nappy wallets and have been SHOUTING all about it on Facebook but not here, silly me.
So I thought I would share a few pictures of the items that you can still pickup from the showcase:
Happy Shopping!!!!!

Yeah!!! its done I finally changed my nappy wallets. No longer do they roll out into 3 sections but now have a zipper pocket for the wipes, nappy’s are inserted behind the wipes and your nappy sacks are on the flap.
Here is a before:
And here it is now:
This wallet will be up for grabs at the ‘Think Pink’ showcase over on the Cuppycake Kid’s Boutique to help raise money for cancer. Will come with a hand sanitiser holder as well.

So I have finally done it. I have redesigned my modern cloth nappy wallet. I have always wanted to make the wallets so that the wipes container was placed inside the bag but was not confident enough with myself that I could do it. I have had quite a few custom orders for this style of nappy wallet so I thought it was about time that I changed it to the way I originally wanted it to look.
The wallet pictured contains 3 modern cloth nappies with their inserts. One side of the bag has the opening for the wipes case, the other side has a small zipper pocket which I added after I finished this bag but with be sew into the side of the wallet next time.
I have also changed the wrist strap too as per a recommend from one of my customers who purchased a clutch style nappy wallet and thought that it would be great to be able to attach the wallet to the stroller. I have added to snaps to the strap for extra strength and I have also done this for the matching wetbag.
One more item that will come with the wallets is a matching hand sanitiser holder. I have mine attached to the strap of my nappy bag so that I can find it easily.
So what do you think? I am also changing the clutch style nappy wallet so stay turned for that one.

Hello everyone, how have you all been. So sorry for the absence on the blog, I’m still here and I have been very busy with a family life and a few custom orders. The shops are starting to look a bit empty so I thought it was about time that I cut up some of the great fabric I have been collecting over the last couple of months.
I am taking part in the Think Pink showcase over at Cuppycake Kids Boutique to help raise funds for breast cancer. You will find 2 of my nappy wallets up for grabs which I am currently redesigning and you can have the first look at my modern cloth nappy wallet tomorrow. There are some great items up for grabs and of course the them is PINK!!!
So what else have I been up too you ask? Well if you follow me on Facebook or on Instagram you would have seen a few of these custom orders in the works:
And I had the great pleasure in making some beautiful tutu’s for a lovely family friend and great supporter of Bits & Bobs 4 Bubs for her wedding. Aren’t the girls just gorgeouse:
And you can now find some of my items on Catch a Creation! Enjoy the rest of your day!

Yes that’s right I have redesigned my trolley covers and they now come with their very own bag that you can fold you cover down into for easy storage/carrying.
The bag is attached to the bag of the cover and acts as a pocket to keep all your goodies in why out and about in the shops. But when it’s time to go home just simple roll the cover up and fold into the bag.
This is the first of many to come to both of my stores and will also be available for the twin trolley’s as well.
Cover still comes with the toy hook.

I have been thinking about some old items I just have available in my store after redesigning my hand sanitiser holders for a custom order a few weeks ago. So I have decided to return my trolley covers and trolley baby capsule liners.
(picture on the left is the old design)
The trolley covers will still be the same design but unfortunately due to materials increasing in price I have increased the price for my covers from $35 to $40 plus postage. This one is the first to be available in the Etsy store. Covers have elastic for easy placement on the trolley and still come with a coordinating toy ring.
I have tried a few different designs for the capsule liners, with the last one looking like this (the green one I used for Ethan). But was still not happy with it. So the other day while at the shops I took a pram liner with me to see how it would fit.
It was a bit to long and of course I don’t need all the anchor points, plus I wanted to add padding to make the liner as comfy as possible for little ones. So here is what I have come up with. What do you think?
This liner is available also in the Etsy store. I will have more added next week as I am currently working on a few custom orders.
I will also be attending a market in August so stay tuned to find out where you will find me and come and say HI!!!

It’s been a while since I have had a little look at what my fellow Made It sellers have been up to so I thought it was about time I did and shared a few of my favourites again with you.
I chose Pets this week as my theme as I have bought some fleece for my furry babies to make them a couple of coats for winter. It’s very chilly here now, I think hubby even had frost on the front window this morning.
So here they are:
How cute is that little bunny with his little harness on. He looks like a jockey lol.
So why not support handmade and buy a little something for your furry babies.

Hello everyone, well it’s been a busy couple of weeks here at Bits & Bobs 4 Bubs. I have had quite a few custom orders coming through for the clutch style nappy wallets. And I have finally uploaded the new On The Go mobile phone wristlets in both stores.
I also have redesigned the hand sanitiser holders due to a customer request and I am really pleased with how it has turned out. I made them back when Bits & Bobs 4 came to life.
School holidays officially start this afternoon and so I will be having some family time next weekend, but will still be able to answer any emails and items purchased will be posted on the following Tuesday.
Well it’s nearly time for school pickup, take care over the school holidays,
Jennifer xx
