Ok, now that I've flooded your mind with the cuteness of her products, I'll let Adriene introduce herself...


Here is a short but sweet bio about myself...

I'm a married, stay at home mom to 6 little blessings. My oldest is 11yrs old and my youngest is 6 months--I have 4 boys and 2 girls. There is never a dull moment in my house but I wouldn't have it any other way. :) 

I am a self-taught sewer and the whole reason I started sewing was because I was tired of not being able to find cute clothes for my girls that were not inappropriate for their age. All of the shorts where super short, and skirts were even worse! So I decided I needed to make them clothes. My mother-in-law got me my first machine 3 years ago for Christmas, and it took me a year to take it out of the box, I was too scared of it! When I finally did take it out, I read the manual up and down, watched YouTube videos, and gathered advice from my close friends who also sew. I started easy--just adding ruffles to shirts and pants--and then worked my way up to making complete outfits, dresses, etc. 

Then I saw a cute pair of baby shoes online and at the time baby #5 was about 9 months, and she was a girl so of course shoes are a must! I bought the pattern for Mary Janes, tried it and the first time was a success! So I kept on making shoes for her and of course word/pictures  got out to my friends and family and it spread from there. Pretty soon I had people wanting me to make them shoes too.

I then decided to try my luck at some small local craft shows. I had success at those and that's really when I decided to make it a business. However, I couldn't just sell Mary Janes so I tweaked the pattern I had to make it better and started making the sneakers and crib shoes. When winter came along, I added boots to my store. 

Cuddle Feet has been around for only about 18mths so I'm still trying to get my name out. I have a shop on Etsy, my Facebook fan page and I have a store on Store Envy as well.
