Shop Closed July 12th - August 12th

Hi all! Summer is upon us and time to enjoy the weather, family & friends. I'm closing the shop from July 12th - August 12th to do exactly that. I plan to reopen the shop on August 13th with a new fabrics, as well as some new purses, wristlets and who knows, maybe a few other goodies! :)
Enjoy your summer!! xo

Wristlets & Free Shipping

Wow! I certainly didn't expect to not post anything for a few months! I am the worst blogger ever (ok, I know that is likely not true. I like following other blogs and some of you haven't been updating either. haha Its summer! What can ya do?)

Anyways, I am happy to post some new items that will be in the Etsy Shop;

The "Eva" purse - This is a pattern that I personally sketched out. Its the perfect size, magnetic clasp & 2 pockets inside. The Eva purse will be made as a one-of-a-kind item. I am slowly moving thru my fabric stash, so Evan will be unique and you'll need to grab one as you see them! :) Again, they'll only in the Etsy shop (its hard to update the regular website with those, but I will add a link).

Wristlets are a great size and just slides on your wrist like a fob. Great for when your running out and don't need a big purse. These are currently on Etsy, but I will be adding them to the website end of August.

Last but not least, I am now offering FREE SHIPPING within the U.S. :)

Rooster Days Festival - Broken Arrow, OK

Looking for some time out this weekend? Sick of being cooped up inside with all this rain? Come out to Rooster Days Festival in Broken Arrow this weekend! Rides, food, music, petting zoo, crafts and gifts.. what more could you ask for?

On Saturday morning the streets of downtown Broken Arrow are flooded with spectators from all ages to partake in the parade. Kids line the streets with goody bags ready to gather candy and celebrate the Rooster Days tradition. And, of course the Bands of Broken Arrow are a major draw. Broken Arrow is recognized all over the country for their superior and dynamic bands.
Community groups, civic organization and others take part and make Rooster Days such an enjoyable event.

Vendors will be set up in the Community Center, and from what I hear, there will be alot of them! We'll be there Friday 4:30-10:00, Saturday 10:00-10:00 and Sunday 1:00-6:00.

Stop by & say hi!!

My Handmade Registry....

I received a sweet message today in my Etsy inbox from Dorana (a fellow etsyian and) creator of a site called www.myhandmaderegistry.com, that I was featured on their front page on a wish list! How cool is that?

I had never heard of this site, but what a fabulous idea! You can register for items on your wishlist, from your favorite handmade retailers! BRILLIANT!

She would stumble across blog posts..."I wish I could register for my wedding at Etsy.com!""Oh, I'd LOVE it if everyone would get me Etsy.com stuff for my baby shower!" This is a blurb from her site "After searching for several days, I found ONE online registry where registrants could add Etsy.com item numbers to their wish list of goods along with the likes of Macy's, Bloomingdales, ToysRUs, etc. I thought, "Hey! I CAN DO THIS!" : a Handmade Registry - a place where everyone can create a personal page with a list of their favorite items from only HANDMADE RETAILERS! "

Again... BRILLIANT! So, I am excited that I was among the lucky to be added to someones wish list. Indeed this is a site to check out and create your own wish list on! Bravo!!

Paper Shop Updated

Check out my paper shop! I've been "Playin' with Paper" all week. I had many o' birthday cards to make and just got on a roll! :) I had in my stash a FABULOUS pack of vintage-y papers and I'm just drooling over there still! I'm going to try to stay on top of them. I almost forgot how fun the papers and ribbons and stamps were!
