Welcome to Her Craftiness!

Welcome to Her Craftiness - home of one-of-a-kind unique gifts for that hard to buy person, grab bag gifts, or to keep as your own!!!

I make Machine-Embroidered Toilet Paper - yes, you read that right!!! I actually sew on toilet paper which is purely decorative and that purrfect gift for that hard-to-buy for person!!! Check out the page to see pictures of the various toilet papers that I have on stock PLUS I do special orders!!! On stock, I have Pittsburgh Steelers, Pittsburgh 3-in-one Sports Logo, cats, dogs, "Storm Pooper", Emoji #2 (Poop), Pitt, Penn State, West Virginia, Miami University, Ohio State plus much much more!!!

I make coordinating towels to complete your bathroom ensemble!!!

Also, there are my Microwave Bowl Cozies which are fabulous to have on hand to put a bowl inside with soup, hot cereal, left-overs, Spaghetti O's, Chile, plus cheese to make your own nachos! Just grab the corners - no burnt fingers PLUS if there is any mess it is contained in the bowl cozy which are 100 percent cotton, completely machine washable and dryable. Check the page with the various prints I currently have on-hand; but then again, I do special orders and requests upon fabric availability.

My Mug Rugs are larger than a coaster and smaller than a placemat - just the purrfect size to hold your cup of coffee, tea, hot cocoa or as I prefer a glass of wine plus a snack whether it be a cookie, crackers or my personal favorite a piece of chocolate. Again, these are a in a variety of fabrics with a touch of machine embroidery. Machine washable AND they do not leave a ring on furniture! Check the page where I have samples of what is currently on hand. Again, I do special orders upon request!!

Have you ever used a Microwave Potato Bag?? The potatoes are done in the microwave in these bags which are done in a variety of prints. These potatoes taste as if they were baked in the oven but not taking the time. They are soft and mash just like grandma made without the hard spots. Estimated times are listed on the tag. AND . . . they're not just for baked potatoes as you can microwave corn on the cob, sweet potatoes AND warm left over rolls that don't get hard!

There is also Machine-Embroidered Lace Angels (in a variety of colors), ornaments, and bookmarks.
