So, I just set up a second little shop on Lov.Li It will likely feature the same products that are currently available in my Etsy shop. I thought I'd give it a whirl and see if it helps showcase my products a little more.

Party at Garment

If you're in the area, swing by Garment on Hawthorne this friday (the 28th)...
They're having a little party and sale that starts at 6 and goes till 9. I was just in there and they have some great new finds for fall.

Etsy Update (Finally!)

So, it's official... the shop updates have started today! Here's a sampling of what's available with more to trickle slowly into the shop over the next few days.

Lots of things are in the works. A big shop update, new jewelry, perhaps a few ads in the coming months. I'm even having pins printed up. And, I'll keep you posted... I think I'm going to set up a shop on the new e-commerce site, Mintd (which is sort of like another etsy). I'm feeling more determined than ever to make this whole craft venture work!

also... I just sent in some donations to Crafters For Critters (http://www.craftersforcritters.com) so be on the lookout for it to be available there... all proceeds go to animals in need.

and... I'll be sending in some jewelry to Modish for next month's giveaway. Make sure you enter to win! I won a modish package a couple months back and it was such a wonderful surprise. (http://www.modish.typepad.com)

Studio Images

I've been busy this weekend trying to reorganize my little studio. It's sort of a never-ending quest to figure out the best way to have all my supplies easily at hand... It's not quite perfect yet, but it's getting progressively more functional!
