I'm still here

Sorry about the blog absence. We have had the most beautiful weather here the last couple of days. I am talking about sunshine, warm days with a breeze. I took advantage of it!! I got outside and did some yard work, planted some sweet peas in my vegetable garden and got some sewing done. I was able to open my windows and let fresh air in and listen to the birds sign too.
Sadly, it's going to get cold again towards the end of the week but that's okay......the little taste of spring was wonderful.

If you get a chance this week please stop over at Cafe Handmade. I was featured on their site.

I love Mail

So yesterday I received the fabric I ordered from Home Grown Pillows over at Etsy. LOVE IT!!
I also picked up some other fabric and supplies at a local fabric store. Just look at the fabric. I love fabric......I have a hard time cutting into new fabric. It's too pretty to cut.......!

This weekend I will be cutting into that pretty fabric. I have 5 seat cushions to cover for a friend of mine, and I have a custom purse order to get started on.

I am waiting for one more package to get here next week from another Etsy seller I order key fob hardware from. I heart Etsy sellers!!

Have a great weekend......!!

Little Mini Key Fobs

Just look at these cute mini key fobs!!

The mini size is great to hold over your fingers, or the perfect size to slide into your pockets. They can be tossed into your everyday purse.

Size ~Fobs are 1.25" wide and approximately 3" long with a heavy duty nickel hardware and a spilt ring for keys. Please check out my shop for more fun items.

Sassy

Don't you love this sassy handbag??

It will have you standing out in the crowd for sure. I love the zebra print. I added a cute pink fringe to add some sassy style to it. You can read more about this bag at ETSY.

Hope everyone is having a great week so far!!

New bag in shop

I listed this new bag in the shop yesterday. I just love it. It's made with Michael Miller Fabric designed by Patty Young called Andalucia - Birdie Damask Earth. It's such a pretty fabric.

You can read more about this bag and other ones here.

New Bags

I have new bags in the shop today. I love them all. Two of them I did as 3 piece sets, meaning I have included a matching zipper pouch and key fob to the purse.

This is the Green with Envy Set. I love the green mossy color. Find out more here.

The Perfect Summer Set. I love pink and green..... VERY summery! See more info here.

Daisy Field is a cute shoulder bag. You can read more about this bag over here. All are made with 100% cotton fabric too.

I hope each and everyone has a wonderful weekend.....it's the Super Bowl!!!! I can't wait...it's going to be hot wings crazy over at my house.

Full of Blooms

Check out this pretty hobo style bag I have listed in my shop. It's blooming flowers all around. I have fallen in love with the black and yellow combo. Don't you just love the way the yellow POPS on the black background??? I do :-)

This is a perfect Spring bag! The large size makes it great to carry all your everyday needs, and has padded shoulder straps for comfort. Closes with a zipper so all your items will stay secure inside. Go check this purse and more out here.

Back in the Workroom

After weeks of not blogging I am glad to say I am back. I hope I still have readers.....

I have had a lot going on this year already. I will be posting more about that later, but I am happy to be back into the workroom. I have new purse designs I am working on. I am digging the new fabric I have. I really like the yellow and black combination!

I love zebra print so I am loving this new purse I have listed in my ETSY shop. Also I have a matching key fob.

Catching up.....

I wanted to show you a few pics of Miss Shelby getting ready for Halloween.

Shelby getting ready.....

My sweetest and cutest little devil girl!!

I have a few Pocket Pouches coming this week. They are great to use for holding business cards, gift cards and other small itmes.

Have a great day!!

Weekend Wrap Up

Today we got up and remembered that we were to turn our clocks back....hope you did too!!

Shelby has been under the weather since Saturday morning. She woke up with a bad head cold and running a slight fever. She is up and moving around today so I hope she is getting over it. She still sounds stuffy but the fever is going away.

We started re-doing our bathroom. It was painted a moss green and I have for a long time wanted it dark chocolate brown, and have my hubby glaze the cabinets with a black stain. Lucky me, he loves doing stuff like this so we have started the process and once finished I will post pictures. He probably thinks I wanted to do this so I could buy more fabric and make matching curtains........he's probably right.....LOL.

Today I got an email from Etsy seller NickyBeeShop that she included one of my little mini zipper pouches in her treasury!! I was so happy. Please stop by her shop at http://www.nickybeeshop.etsy.com/ , she has some really cute stuff for Christmas. I love finding new shops........

Hope everyone has a great Sunday.

Happy Halloween

I hope everyone has a happy, fun, and safe Halloween !!

It's kinda sad for us. We won't be taking her trick or treating this year....first time in 11 years. She is older and going off with her parents just isn't that cool anymore...lol. One of her good friends invited her to go to a Carnival this year so she is excited. She still will be getting dressed up so I will have pictures of her next week. My husband made a comment about being sad that she is growing up. I guess we will be sitting at home eating candy while she is out having fun. But that's all that matters......having fun!!

But I did receive a very sweet email from a blog reader/Etsy seller that cheered me up.
Celina from http://www.simplysaidcardsbycelina.blogspot.com/ wrote to tell me she used my ribbon tutorial to make her daughter some ribbon ponytail holders. Please go visit her blog.....the ponytail holders look GREAT Celina!! I know your little girl will be daring in them.

Stop by her shop too at http://www.simplysaidcards.etsy.com/ too! She has some of the prettiest cards.

Have a great weekend everyone!!!!! BOO!

This One is For the Girls

Little girls that is!

You know every little girl likes to have their own bag or wristlet. I have a few great items for that special little girl in my shop. They make great Christmas gifts, or Birthday gifts.

I have the Fun Dots Wristlet. A wonderful little pouch for her to carry a small pack of crayons or pencils and small notepad in on those trips to the doctor, mall, restaurant or keep in the car for entertainment on those car trips. Great for older girls that have a Nintendo DS or Nintendo Lite, it slides in easily.

Pink Pinwheels Snap and Go Pouch is a smaller pouch. She can snap it on her belt loop or carry in her hand. Small put will still hold a small pack of crayons, notepad, and even a Nintendo DS or Nintendo Lite.

And of course every girl likes to carry their own purse. Later today I will be listing this pretty purse on Etsy. This purse is just too cute. I love the fabric, which is 100% cotton. I fully lined this purse with pink fabric and added one pocket on the inside. There are cute sayings like: BFF, Smile, You Go Girl, Fabulous, It's a Girl Thing!

Hope everyone has a great Wednesday!!!!

Friday Finds

So today is Friday Finds. I don't really have a theme for today, I am just going to some of the categories I normally forget to check out. So, here we go..........

Check this beautiful Swarovski Pearl Tree Sculpture out. It's very unique don't you think.
You can find more at Byapryl.


Next up is this beautiful bowl. There is something about this color that draws my eye to it. It's very pretty. Check out more great pottery at Clayslingingmama


Over at Backofthemoondayspa you can get some great looking body products. Check this body scrub out...doesn't the Orange and Cinnamon sound yummy!!


When I came across this shop, I fell in love with the Hound Hoodies!! Aren't they cute??? And the dog is too! Check more dog items out over at Anniessweatshop on Etsy.

I hope everyone has a great weekend. We are headed to the Zoo tomorrow. I can't wait....we are carrying my daughter and her best friend, and they are soooo ready.

Oh Baby....!

I decided to feature a few etsy sellers today.....the theme....BABY!
There's a lot of Baby items over at Etsy. I hope you will check these sellers out.

I LOVE these little knit booties from Sheknitsamy. Don't they just make you say Awwww!

Now what little girl doesn't want her own little Tutu. Think of all the spins, twirls, and laughter this tutu would cause..... Check it out over at Mom2twogals.

Let's not forget about the little boys... I love this Chenille Bib and Burp Cloth Set over at GirlieBirdBoutique. This would make a great little baby shower gift.

Wristlet Wednesday!!

Today I am making it Wristlet Wednesday. Excited....? I am.

Here are a few of my wristlets that are listed at ETSY.

Wristlets are great to use for those quick trips to the mall, parties or out to the club. Perfect to use when you don’t want to carry around a large bag. Don’t let the size fool you…..this wristlet will hold checkbook, money, keys, cell phone and a few other small items. You can wear it on your wrist, or carry in your hand like a clutch or toss into your purse and use as a zipper pouch.

If you would like to purchase a wristlet please visit my SHOP.
***They make great gifts!!!!***

I love it...

Awhile back I entered in a blog giveaway over at Cthings. She has become one of my blog friends and I love reading her blog. Please check it out.....
