It can be hard to find unique handmade gifts for children and baby's but Christina's Baby Gifts make it easy to find the perfect gift that is also extra special!

What/Who inspired you to start your craft?

Mostly my first born son but I also come from a family of crafters and grew up doing craft fairs with my parents.

How did you get started on Etsy?

I started on Etsy after a family friend told me about it. At first I just used it to buy supplies but after doing craft fairs for a couple years and watching my little business grow, I decided to open a shop.

What's your favorite item in your shop and why?

I have to many favorite items to pick just one but the ones that I like making the most are my recycled crayons. I think mainly because my boys can help me with them and I love the looks on their faces as I take them out of the molds.

What do you do in your downtime?

I don't have down time. My full time job is a stay at home mom to my 3 boys (5,3, and 1) so I do my crafting/business stuff during the 1 to 3 hours I get at nap time during every day, but when I am with my boys we enjoy feeding the ducks, going for walks, and just playing outside. We also spend a lot of time at the town library during the winter.

Tell us a little about yourself.

I was a preschool teacher until I had my first son (We decided I wasn't going to go back to work). Then one day after a feeding I had the idea to start making baby gifts, so when I started back in summer 2009 I was making baby items like diaper cakes and other small items. Then I learned to sew and started making baby blankets. As my first son grew, so did my business and now I make more items for young children than babies. My sons have inspired many of my items and are still my inspiration behind everything I do.
