Greetings Style Lush readers! I'm visiting from Food Lush to tell you about my friend Helene's wonderful Etsy shop: HH Knits. Helene has a gift when it comes to knitting. Everything she makes combines her creativity with impeccable workmanship. Some of my favorites are handmade greeting cards that feature her original designs. This cupcake card is perfect for birthdays:
Note that the cupcake frosting is embellished with little beads. Adorable! And this latte card is ideal for the coffee-drinker in your life.
Pair it with a Starbucks card for a terrific gift. I just love this sailboat card, too.
The pictures don't do the cards justice--they are each individual works of art that are suitable for framing. And this is just a small sample--check out her store for more examples of her greeting cards. At $7 each, the cards are a relatively inexpensive way to send a special, handcrafted greeting.
Helene also sells beautiful scarves (I love this striped infinity scarf):
and spectacular handmade Christmas stockings:
If you are looking for a unique card or hand-knitted item, definitely check out her store (she also does some custom work--contact her if you're interested in a custom order).

This would be perfect to send to my MIL! I would have to do either the cupcake or cake for her birthday or course!
