A Moment To Catch Up

Oh my! I can't believe I have not posted since May! It has been a very busy summer! We had lots of personal stuff going on including the move of some of my family from Pennsylvania to near me here in Arkansas. I am thankful to now have them just a few blocks away after being thousands of miles away for many years.

Then in June my husband and I celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary. It's hard to believe it's been that long. Time flies when you are married to a great guy who loves you as if you were only just married a few weeks. :) I made my dress for the party from Butterick 4513 using vintage fabric I found on ebay several years ago.

Business has been very busy too. I was thrilled to be asked to be interviewed by a local magazine. The article came out in the August issue and you can read it on line here: @Urban Magazine. The experience was so much fun from start to finish!

I hope you all had a wonderful summer! Now that the weather is started to cool down (thank goodness!), we are turning our thoughts to new items we will have for you just in time for the holidays, including new snood designs, new colors of the bunny snood, and a brand new item. Stay tuned!

Front Page!!

I was totally thrilled Sunday morning when I woke up to the news that overnight one of the recent treasury's that featured my navy blue 40s snood  made it to the front page of Etsy. Here is a screen shot of the treasury from Statsy.com. YAY!! A big THANK YOU to  Dirty Deeds Soaps for featuring me!

Arthelia A. Across The Pond

I am thrilled to announce that the newest beauty to model my Arthelia A. accessory line will be the UK's Miss Kitten Von Mew! Be sure to watch for her photo's coming soon!

Anchors Aweigh!!

One of my very best clients had a request for a 1940's style popcorn stitch bag. I used my Lillian vintage pattern to make her this darling bag in navy blue with a nautical print lining and tiny anchor zipper pull. The handle is accented with clear sparkled plastic rings.

My First Etsy Treasury Feature!

I am thrilled to say one of my items has been featured in a treasury on Etsy by the lovly Etsy shop owner dressurdolly2!

Vacation Time.....Again!

This week my family will be arriving here to spend about two weeks with us. We will be doing the usual shopping and antiquing and I hope to have some new goodies to share with you. For the time they are here, I will be putting my Etsy shop on vacation mode. All pending orders will be finished and shipped this week. Until then have a great July!

New Item Teaser!

I've been asked for these, and I have been promising.....and no it isn't a snood!
