I'm starting a crafting business and am trying to pick a name. I feel really self-conscious about picking a name because I can't tell if they are cheesey or not. Every time I ask friends for suggestions they tell me to call it Karen's Crafts, which just doesn't do it for me.

Anyway, my intention is to make waldorf toys. Right now I mostly have needle felted wands, fairies, mermaids and fairy crowns. I also plan to expand to play silks, waldorf dolls and needle felted playscapes if this works out.

These are my ideas so far :

Encanto

Shady Grove Wool Works

Snapdragon Toys

opinons on these names or suggestion for others would be much appreciated!

I like Encanto, but the domain is taken, along with enkanto (play on K for karen) so you would have to look at what's available for future expansion, perhaps you need to add a word . Using "wool" or "toys" really puts you in a box, no matter how passionate you might feel about your current craft line right now. Maybe add your initials, like KC Encanto or something like that.

I like to keep it short and easy to remember.  Something catchy and something that just sticks in your head and rolls of your tongue.

Encanto is good for that!
