Kimberly Poole Designs: Trendy #Crochet Accessories #giveaway #sponsor


One accessory I am excited to wear this summer now that I've grown my hair out some are headbands, and specifically crochet headbands by Kimberly Poole Designs.

London, Ontario accessories designer Kimberly Poole has a whole line of headbands from the whimsical and sweet to the bohemian and chic in her Etsy shop. I have a grey one with points like a crown that I absolutely adore, and it is neatly tucked away in my hospital bag to keep my hair out of my face (and baby's hands) at the hospital.


Kimberly Poole Designs is more than just hair accessories and headbands. Recently, I ordered a custom, medium grey blanket for our nursery. I asked Kimberly to make something super soft and warm, a little larger than crib sized so that he can use it for snuggling on the couch when he is a little older, and in a stitch with great texture. This is what Kimberly designed, and I could not be more happy with it.


Isn't it gorgeous?! I'm seriously so impressed with the care and attention to detail that Kimberly took when making this special blanket for our nursery.

I have had the pleasure of working with Kimberly Poole Designs for the past year on various projects, and I was thrilled when she offered to sponsor the Mom & Baby Giveaway with a few hair accessories, both for mom and baby! There is one crochet maroon bow on a metal headband (pictured below) and a gorgeous blue chunky crochet necklace for mom, and two of the tie-back multistrand headbands (in peach and aqua) that are perfect for newborn baby girls.

MOMpreneur Monday: Megan Cloarec

Another week, another MOM to admire!

I'm very happy to introduce you to Megan Cloarec. She and I became friends through The Bump while we were both pregnant, and she was blessed with one of the most adorable baby girls I've ever seen. Now, she's turned her hobby of crocheting into a business...give her a little love!



What do you do?

I crochet!



Why do you love it?
I love the feeling of accomplishment without even getting out of
my pj's. Making something from start to finish really gives me that sense of accomplishment and productivity. Great for a mom's sanity and psyche!



What advice do you have for other MOMpreneurs?

Balance! Don't spend all of your time working, away from baby. They grow so fast! But make enough mom time. I'm still finding the perfect balance, if there is such a thing. I'm still new at this!
