I don't want to leave anyone out!

I've been feeling bad lately that I never make anything for my own child because I'm too busy always making flowers and bows. He is probably my biggest fan though. He's always telling me how pretty everything that I make is and who they should go to. :) I bought a pattern for a little boy's tie over a year ago but just never got around to making one. I finally told my son I would make one for him so I took him to the fabric store to pick out some fabric and this is what he chose. He was SUPER excited when it was done and gave me the best hug ever! I'm so glad I could finally make something for him. I think little boys get left out sometimes so I've decided to add some of these ties to my shop. I'm taking a few different ones to Sugar Plum this week.

Mark your calendars!

Contact me if you have any questions. I hope to see you all there! One of my cousins will also be bringing some crocheted goodies. You can check out her goodies at bradeehomemade. Time to get that Holiday shopping done! SLM will also be at Sugar Plum November 10th - 12th at the Orange County Fair Grounds, a home boutique in Rossmoor November 19th (more to come soon on that one), and Sugar Plum again at the Buena Park Mall December 1st - 4th. Well, I had better get back to work if I plan on having enough inventory for all of these shows (and I do plan on that)! :)

Boutique Season is Here!!

I've been super busy getting ready for the 6 boutiques I have coming up in the next two months! The first one starts in one week from today!

One Week Away!

I'm so excited! Only one more week until the Pineapples and Palm Trees Summer Boutique.

I've been keeping myself pretty busy trying to come up with some new designs and I'm pretty happy with everything so far but I still have a LOT of work to do in the next 7 days. :) I hope to see lots of you there!

New Accessories!

I've decided to branch out a little from the hair accessories and add something new to my shop. I started with these adjustable flower rings that I posted a couple of months ago.

Then I got so excited about making something different and it went from there. Sometimes I get a little bored of the same thing (as some of you may already know). One of my most frequent phrases as a kid was, "I'm bored!" That's what got my Etsy Shop started in the first place. I always have to be doing something and I had no need for a million hair clips so I decided to share with the world. I made these flower necklaces last month and I love how they turned out. I also made some rings and earrings but I don't have any pictures of those yet.

I decided to put my sewing skills to use and made these little clutches. I originally made them for my friend and I to use for our coupons but they can be used for whatever you want! They're about 4 inches tall by 8 inches across, have a magnetic snap, and come with a cute little embellishment on the front.

A few of these are already sold but some of them are still available or I still have more of the same fabric.

Sugar Plum Festival!

I'm so excited that I got the opportunity to be a vendor at Sugar Plum Festivals Summer Boutique in the Buena Park mall this week. They've been around since 1978 and it's a great boutique. It's going on now through Saturday. Be sure to check it out. There are 92 vendors at this one so there's sure to be something for everyone!
