Cranky Cat Studio- Review and $30 GC Giveaway


Deborah Wuest, owner of Cranky Cat Studio, offers a range of colorful, quality baby products that are all hand-made. Among the items she creates are bibs, blankets, hooded towels, diaper bags, knit hats, pocket Kleenex holders, luggage tags, and much more.

When I was contacted for a review, I was asked what kind of pattern I would like. I said "bright colors!" because babies love colorful things, and little man is no exception. Well, I got what I asked for, as you can see below. Not only was everything vibrantly appealing, but everything was very well-made. It's hard to pick a favorite from among the review items, because they are all really cute. A large, Ssilly Safari bib (perfect for a little boy), a small bib and burp cloth in the Multi Cat pattern, and a fabulous monkey blanket for our little monkey.

baby blanket
The small bib usually retails for $5.99, or you can order the matching set (with burp cloth) for $11.99, which is a great gift idea, because not only do you want to offer something that is both fun, useful, and attractive, but a matching set of items always makes for a beautiful presentation.

This monkey blanket (which I love) is the Monkeys Love Bananas print, and is very large in size (30" by 40"). It can be used as a swaddler, a playmat, or a blanket. Little man just started to crawl, so for us it's a colorful playmat. It's only $11.99, and washes well:


The large bib in the Sssilly Safari pattern would also make a great gift (retails for $7.99). I'm not very fond of the mute-colored items I see in stores, they are boring for children and not really appealing in general. Leave it to a WAHM to come up with better options. Deborah also takes custom orders, so feel free to contact her with requests and ideas. Her products are very well made, and you can feel sure that you will get a beautifully made item that you can use or gift proudly.

Cranky Cat Studios also offers Flexi-Feet Squeaky Shoes, created by a WAHM from Virginia. We received the Out of My Shell Dino design. I love squeaky shoes for little ones...it not only encourages them to walk, so they hear the squeaking, but you feel secure when you have to take your eyes off them, and can still hear them squeaking next to you. These are super cute:

Buy it! Deborah has two stores now, her Etsy shop and her Bonanzle shop. In addition to all the items she carries in her stores, she takes requests for custom orders, and everything ships free in the US!
