It’s been a while since we’ve had a FREE Vintage Friday! Well we’re bringing it back with an awesome giveaway! Many thanks to Laurie at Old School Acres for hosting this giveaway. Everybody is smitten with Laurie’s felt crib shoes. She’s working on a new design and she has graciously given us this pair to give away to one lucky winner! Take a peek at her brand new and adorable Kitten & Mittens crib shoes:

To enter, just leave a comment on this post telling us a NEW shoe theme idea you would like to see Laurie make. (If you haven’t seen her collection, check it out here.) We’ll draw one winner at random to win this pair.
But wait! There’s more! If Laurie and I choose YOUR shoe theme idea to include in the shop, we’ll also send that person a FREE pair of the new shoes once they are completed! We can’t promise we’ll choose any of the ideas submitted, but we’re hoping you knock our mittens off! So put your thinking caps on and give us some great ideas!
Entries will be accepted until Sunday 4/18 at 11pm EST. Winner(s) will be announced on the blog the following week. Good luck and Happy Easter!

I have a couple of theme suggestions: lollipops, strawberries, scottie dogs, kittens and yarn, stop me now because you can’t go wrong with felt booties and embroidery! I love her products!

These are adorable! What about Little Bo Peep and a lamb. I also think some fruit would be cute (strawberries or cherries would be my pick).

I would love to see a western theme with a little cowboy/girl. Also a nautical theme, lil sailor/mermaid an anchor maybe?!

You have already done so many I like. The blogger above mentions Western theme– being from TX — that was going to be my suggestion.

So cute! I’d love to see a baseball/bat or maybe a fire truck theme for my little man.

I would love to see a “Treat” theme, like cupcakes, hot fudge sundaes or/and a slice of cake. I also think lemons would be really cute and paisley prints! Your work is incredible and their is not one that I don’t admire, can’t wait to see what more you come up with!

I love the octopus ones – but am DYING for some with a seahorse on it! I just love seahorses and think that they are so cute and charming especially on a little baby
I also would love to see some beachy ones for those summer babies!
shells, sand pail, shovel, starfish

There are so many cute vintage patterns on patternbee.com. I like the “appealing pets” under the baby layette catagory. Such cute patern designs. The bunny playing the flute and the little lamb are my favorites but, really if I could embroider every design I think I would. I love the entire selection of patterns! Ooh, and sailboats would be cute too : )

What precious little booties. I came here by looking for ideas for our vintage cowboy party! My 3 children all have their birthdays at the end of May (1, 3, and 5 yrs) and I would loooove a pair of western booties for my little Landon turning 1 yr. I adore that robin egg blue color with maybe white and brown. I’d love to see something like a star and a boot or cowboy hat. What great work… Keep it up!

I’m not sure how difficult they would be to embroider, but I think little vintage carousels would be very cute!

I love the little felt booties. I would love to see vintage cowboys and indians on them. When my children were small they had PJ’s with this theme and I thought it was so cute.

How about a squirrel on one foot and some cute acorns on the other?
Or
some colourful toadstools?

How adorable!!! How about a wand on one foot and bubbles on the second!!! (reminds me of my little ones stomping on bubbles as they land in the soft grass!)
A pair of sailored hat duckies (could be done in blue or pink!)
