Bat Hair Accessory



Just in time for Halloween comes a new addition to the Etsy shop. You might have seen the little bats here, but bigger is always better. These bat hair accessories are perfect for a last minute Halloween Etsy shopping spree, and are actually a runoff to the free simple body/wing pattern I posted last month! If you haven’t seen it yet, here’s a link.


These bat hair accessories are available on a hair clip, or headband and come in two different colors.




You can get buy these here, or learn to make them here!

Happy Halloween!

All Treat, No trick

So Halloween is basically here, so I figure, it’s time for a new, Halloween themed pattern.

I was searching online for a pattern for an easy bat, but I really couldn’t find any, so I figured, why not make one? So I did, and I think it turned out really nicely. You might recognize this bat sewn onto the girls Halloween hat (left) available here.

These pins are available to buy here.

So here are some photos of what you can make!
