Ryder and James is Here!

We have the most adorable plaid flannel shirt dress I have ever seen! I'll be honest, I wish that Ryder and James made adult clothing. I can't get over how cute and cozy the leggings are. We also received a gorgeous white faux fur bolero shrug. It is a perfect companion to a holiday dress.

We keep hearing how much people love the lines we carry. People love the colorful clothing we have and so many people appreciate seeing the unique kids clothing in the store.

Book Binding Tutorial


So here at Tiny Hanger we had a great book binding tutorial! Kara gave a nice introductory tutorial to book binding and inspired those in attendance to expand on the basics they learned and create some great gifts for the holidays. It is easier than you may think to make a beautiful keepsake such as a baby book, photo album or journal. Everyone likes a handmade gift that is made with love. Even the babies had a great time at Tiny Hanger while their caretakers got some craft time in.

Looking for things to do?
This Tuesday we will be potato printing on rompers or tee shirts.

Come join us and get you craft time in! We hope to see you here at 11 am Tuesday.

Please call or stop by to sign up and order your romper or tee shirt.

Get Crafty!


Join us at Tiny Hanger tomorrow, Thursday November 10, for a Japanese Stab Bookbinding tutorial.

We will be taking you through the steps of making a book of your choice like the ones shown here made by Vanilla Joy. You can make a photo album, journal, or baby book. This method of bookbinding is not intimidating, for those of you are not constant crafters. They make a great keepsake or gift as well a functional notebook for you to jot down notes or make your to do lists. You can make the book unique by adding decorative papers, stamps, photos etc. It is an opportunity to make a baby book that you have actually constructed for the little one in your life. I enjoy the feeling of completing a project and having a tangible product that I can have forever.

We are beginning at 11 am and will be done by 12 pm. Feel free to bring your baby and get in some crafting time for yourself.

Stop by Tiny Hanger at 14 Pleasant St. or call us at 617-487-5501 to sign up. There will be a fee for supplies. We will have everything you need but feel free to bring any photos, paper, stamps etc. that you would like to use.

Let's get crafty!!!!

I confess.


I confess.

I am addicted to the frou frou drink.
I have always been a coffee, half and half, no sugar type of coffee drinker. Every day. One cup in the morning (ok, more than that each morning since having a child). That's it. No frou.

Enter my friend, JML.

At some point she introduced me to the mid-day, soy chai latte. I had one and it was love. I used to only have one every few days when I was a stay at home mom but now, right by the Tiny Hanger is a coffee shop and it has become as habit to have one of these as my afternoon pick me up.

I have even added a friend to the repertoire, the soy pumpkin spice latte. The coffee shop was out of chai so they introduced me to this and I am again in love.

No whipped cream, please. Who needs the extra calories!

Anyway, I am just sitting here enjoying the pumpkin spice latte (thanks Molly!) and feeling pretty happy.

Community Photo Project

We have had a great time hanging with Roberto Farren Photography who has been taking amazing portraits of people in the community and visitors to the Tiny Hanger. Soon we will be creating a major photo collage and covering the windows of the empty store around us. A must see when in the Coolidge Corner area.
What do you think so far?
