About Us

Hello! Welcome to my personal happiness endeavor, The Crafty Penguin Boutique.

I am a mother, first, of 2 AUsomely autistic boys who fill our lives with joy and love! My husband and I now have been together longer than we haven't. 😂 I left the mental health field to stay home with the boys, and Steve became self-employed for the flexibility and freedom to help us meet their needs. 

Eventually, I wanted to do something of my own that would help contribute to the family finances as well as have an outlet for my creativity which, inadvertently, became my own much needed therapy. Therein lies the birth of the boutique. I've found joy and relaxation when handmaking items as well as seeking out items that I think would fit my personality and vision with the hopes that others, like yourself, would enjoy them, too.

Please know that when you shop with The Crafty Penguin Boutique and my handmade line, SewphistiKated, you are truly supporting a family, a dream, AND making me do a happy dance!

I am so happy you stopped by! Thank you for being here!

Happy Waddles, 
Kate
