I know this might seem sort of stupid for a blog, but I am extremely proud of myself right now! My daughter, Lilliana, has to wear glasses at all times with the exception of bed and bath times! She has an astigmatism, in both eyes and a lazy eye in her left eye! Well, she is 4 years old, and she has only been wearing them since April 8th and has already had to have the frame replaced because they fell off her face one day, and got stepped on! Luckily we had an extra warranty on them, and didn't have to pay a dime for the replacement frame, but next time we will. So, I have been looking for a chain, you know the kind "Librarians" always have in the books!!! Hoping that with the chain if they would fall again they will be "caught" on the chain (Ireally wanted to avoid those funky elastic things) I wanted something really cute for her, and finally found a chain I liked...for $15...WHOA now! To top off the cost of them, I get home, put her glasses on it, and it keeps sliding off (her frames are tiny), and the chain hangs down all the way to her butt almost!! NOPE! Gotta get rid of these, so I decided to try and make some myself...and after some practice I am going to try and make them to sell, specifically for kids, I even have a name for it already...considering I stumbled across this for Lilli, I decided to call it..."Lilli's Pad!" Okay, this is my first attempt at this...let me know what ya think! Oh and also...when I do start selling these, I am going to donate a LARGE portion of it to www.apraxia-kids.org to help with things that in the long run will also benefit my son and others like him! Wish me luck!
