When it comes to my girls and their accessories, more is always better. My name is Lizzie Walker and I am the mother of two beautiful girls. I got started making accessories when I was pregnant with my first baby. I love to project and making things for my kids is addicting. My project ideas usually come from something that I've seen in stores or on a little girl I've seen while out and about. One day while standing in line for a ride at Disney World, I saw a darling little girl wearing jeweled flower croc shoes. I asked her where she got them and she told me her parents own a high end children's boutique and sell them there for big bucks. I then stood in line for the next hour staring at her feet and thinking about how these boring shoes I had once hated transformed into an eye-catching fashion statement for children. I immediately started thinking of ideas on how I could make them myself. The ideas began to flow...."I could make them in all different colors and sizes, and oh my gosh how cute would it be if I felled every hole with a jeweled flower instead of just on or two like the girl standing in line!" I got right to work and soon had a pair of crocs with each and every hole filled with a jeweled flower. Wow, they were awesome! One idea led to another...bling binkies for babies, hair/headband flowers and clips, bracelets, etc.

I have learned something about myself over the years of crafting...it always looks better with more, more, more! When it comes to accessories, my motto is: "If one is super cute, More is Better!" And that is how I became More is Better. I hope you enjoy all of these fun and fancy accessories, and I can't wait for the show.

  13. Super, duper adorable! My daughter hates having her hair brushed, so I'm always looking for fantastic hats, clips, headbands etc. to "disguise" her messy locks! Looking forward to taking a close look.
