This week, I was in touch with
Blanketeer & More on Facebook. She makes some pretty cool things like car seat tents, purses, key chains, and even camera straps- but she also is a wonderful crocheter!
Several months back, I won a crocheted headband and flower clip from a different person, and loved it. This week, I received 3 crocheted flowers from
Blanketeer & More, and I have to say- I LOVE them. These flowers are very similar to the one I won back in February, but the quality of the yarn, and the stitching is a lot better. These flowers are nice and tight- no unraveling for them, and the yarn is soft without being fuzzy or worn as so many yards tend to do. The flower I have from February is fuzzy, loose, and worn looking.
I received 1 large flower, and 2 smaller flowers, each on their own lined alligator clip. They were all superbly made, and I would not hesitate to purchase these flowers from her in the future for my own use. These flowers can be worn alone in the hair, or even on a shirt for a bit of flair, or they can be clipped onto a headband.
End thoughts:
Shipping Time: I was approached on Monday, August 9th, about doing a review. I had the items in hand on Thursday, August 12th! The ship time was super fast!
Ease of communication: Kami, the wonderful person behind Blanketeer & More, was very pleasant to work with and communicate with. She's nice, and accommodating, and I highly recommend her for both quality, and customer service.
Material Quality- The yarn used is fantastic and soft. It shows no signs of being worn or fuzzy, and the flowers lay nice and flat on their clips. She provided a quality product that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for crocheted flowers.
Price- The large flower, also called the adult sized flower, sells for $5.00 each. The smaller pair, a children's set, sells for $5.00 for a pair. Both prices are fantastic for the work that goes into making these. Unlike regular flower clips, these are handmade start to finish.
Overall grade? A+ for customer service, product quality, and design. I love these, and can't wait to give them away to a lucky fan of Bowtique Critique!
