Presenting... SensibleCrafts!

Good morning! :)

I am very thrilled to share with you my sister, Sara, and I's brand new shop on Etsy called SensibleCrafts! We are making practical crochet products such as dishcloths, heatless hair curlers, water bottle holders, and much more to come soon! We strive to sell useful items for the home and others at an affordable price, which we hope will be a blessing to you and your family. :)


We are currently having a sale on our dishcloths; buy 2 and get 1 free! We are also planning on adding our other listings soon, so come back often! ;)

It is truly a blessing from Jesus to be able to open a shop online with my sister! And I am so grateful for my hands to be able to make pretty things out of simple yarn, thank You Lord!

On May 3 Sara and I opened a booth alongside our parents during our community's annual garage sale. It was such a jollity! Close to 200 people passed by our street, and we were given so many compliments and encouragements. What a beautiful gift from our God! :) I will always remember the little girls pointing at the colorful headbands or the *pink* eReader/book covers, saying, "Look, mommy!" or the sweet grandmother purchasing our jar scrubbers (not pictured) for her 2 daughters on Mother's day!

A little bit of our inventory: eReader covers, sport headbands/bracelets, cat mouse toys, sets of dishclohs, Peter Pan collars, jar scrubbers (which aren't in the picture yet) girl headbands... So many things! 

Grocery bags & water bottle holders!
My hair before and after using our Hair Curlers. I can't believe it! I put them in my damp hair after a shower, slept comfortably in them, and voilà! I woke up to beautiful curls in the morning. :D Talk about a speedy hairdo! They made by hair drastically shorter as well, which is nice for the warm summer days ahead (if they can ever come)!

We pray that you will take a look around our shop and purchase one of our lovely products! Feel free to share any of the pictures in this post via Pinterest, Facebook, Twitter, etc.! :) What would you like to see in our shop? Tell Sara and I at sensiblecraftsshop@gmail.com or comment below! 

1 Thessalonians 5:16-23 "Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast to that which is good. Abstain from all appearance of evil. And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly: and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ."

In all sisterly love,

  2. Wow! That is exciting! Everything is so adorable! You are doing such a great job! I LOVE the curlers! Did you make up the pattern yourselves? :) That is so neat! Your hair is beautiful!! ♥ Do the hair curlers have anything in them, to support them? I tried sewing something like that for a hair-do, but it didn't work. :P I can't wait to see more items in your shop! :)
    Love in Christ,
    Sarah

    1. Hi Sarah!

      Thank you so much!! :D No, Sara used a pattern for the curlers. We used thick acrylic yarn, so they are rigid enough to stay in place yet be comfortable and form around your hair well. ;) We're so glad that you like our shop!! ♥

    1. Hi Abby!

      Thank you for your compliments, it's so encouraging!! Sara and I look forward to doing business with you! :D Yes, the curlers work wonderfully with waist-length hair. Mine are about 3 inches (un-curlered) from my waist, and when taking 2 in. pieces of hair, I had 3 curlers left. :) We can always make a custom order for you with more curlers if you would like!

    2. Oh, that's great Noemie, I can't wait to order some soon!!!! I can never get my hair to stay curled, but I think these are going to work for me! Thanks a lot ♥

  4. That is so impressive! My skill level is nowhere near that amazing. What is your hair normally like without the curlers? I find that really interesting!

      Thank you so much!! My hair is normally almost to my waist and slightly wavy. I look like I have my mom's crazy curly hair with the hair curlers, I shocked myself! ;)

      I love your blog!!
