Printed using basic screen printing and acrylic transfer methods. Also featured will be three sizes of hand bound books also featuring original printed designs.

Zoe Jacobson | Ruby Market

"It is always a treat to see a smile on a child's face.  This year, Ruby Market has decided to focus a little bit more on the simple things that can make a child's eyes sparkle.  From our knitted mustaches that promote imaginary play to our "You Can Do It" reward badges, we think we have hit the spot.  What child doesn't enjoy getting rewarded for huge triumphs like potty training or surviving the day at preschool?! Your boys will also feel so handsome when they don our big boy bow ties, the girls won't be able to resist pinching their cheeks! In addition, we have decided to spruce up our hot air balloons with some nursery themed surprises.  You'll just have to wait and see... who knows, maybe we can get your imagination going too." Visit me here.

Emily Cooper | Emily Elizabeth's Designs

I repurpose home decor items. I hand paint all of the picture frames that I use and repaint the accessories that I sell.
