Today we welcome Cortney, from SquishyBee! Cortney makes a range of goods for kids and babies (and a few for grown-ups!) – and her giveaway is just right for Easter!

Where do you live?

Good old Amish country (Lancaster county, Pennsylvania)

About my family/work:

I am a stay at home mom of 4 cute kids(1 boy and 3 girls(ages 10, 5,2,and 4months) and I absolutely wouldn’t trade it for the world. I am Married to an incredibly intelligent man who is my best friend;)

What’s your favourite place in the world, and why?

Anyplace with beautiful views and you can see nothing but nature for miles!

What did you want to be ‘when you grew up’?

Ever since I could put a pencil or crayon to a paper I said I wanted to be an Artist…and I did it!  I went to Pennsylvania College of Art and Design and graduated with a BFA.

What do you make?

Angel Babies, Bunnies (other animals soon to come!), hand Dyed burp cloths and bodysuits, appliqued bodysuits, blankets, frame coin purses

What are you most proud of making?

Angel Babies!!  I started making these because I wanted to give back to a charity close to my heart.  $5 from every Angel Baby sold goes to http://www.shareoflancaster.com/ (Share of Lancaster exists to bring comfort and understanding to families who have suffered the loss of a baby through miscarriage, pregnancy complications, prematurity, stillbirth, SIDS and any other cause.)
In 2003 I had a baby boy named Jonathan who was stillborn. I know what it’s like to go through such a tragedy so I wanted to do what I could to give support.

What do you like the most/least about selling your wares online?

Not seeing the reaction when someone gets to see there product!

I love…

Being a mom!

It drives me crazy when…

people do things slowly
