Shop Spotlight: Nicolas & Reese

Today my mom and I decided to take Kennedy to her very first pumpkin patch and corn maze.  We had an absolute blast.  It is getting chilly out, so it was the perfect day to put our new Nicolas & Reese pixie bonnet to good use.


This bonnet is the cutest thing ever.  Not only is it soft but it is totally handmade with love.  We adore it and not to mention it looks super adorable on Kennedy (I might be partial though).



We went to the Mayse's Farmers Market, where they have a pumpkin patch, corn maze and other fun things for kiddos to do.  We took a hayride to the pumpkin patch where we let Kennedy pick her very own pumpkin and she went straight for this huge one, that mommy had to lug around (I'm pretty sure it weighed more than her).






Kennedy also played in some corn and had so much fun scooping it into buckets.  It was a bit cold but when the sun was on us it got hot fast, so thats why she doesn't have a coat on in every pic.




I wish I would have found Nicolas & Reese when Kennedy was a newborn because she makes the cutest newborn photography accessories.  She makes everything from bonnet sets, crowns and other adorable crocheted items.




Cynthia is the creator of all these handmade goodies. She is a work at home mom with three little boys, Anton (5 years), Luka (3 years) and Matej (1.5 years).  She has been married to her hubby Bill for going on 6 years and can't imagine her life any differently.

I had a blast learning about how Cynthia got her start, which was after her girlfriend started a newborn photography business.  She was asked to make some hats and thats how Nicolas & Reese was born.




I asked the tough question on what her favorite think to make was and she told me that all newborn items make her melt, but her absolute favorite is her hobby horses.  Which allows her to be original and put all of her creativity to use.  I am swooning over these hobby horses and need to get one for Kennedy.  Watch for a new line of horses to launch in November (just in time for Christmas).
