Cases Anyone?

I was shopping for felt the other day for a custom order and decided to grab a few extra sheets while I was there. I randomly decided to make these iPod/iPhone cases and I love them!





Then I made a iPad sleeve too...

These can all be customized in your favorite color or made in different sizes to fit your phone, Nook, or Kindle.
Then today I wanted to make some camera cases so I put a little twist on the normal cases I've made before by sewing a pattern on the linen. I love how they turned out...I think I might do this to my next clutches too!

Crazy for Pinwheels

In preparing for the Holiday Boutique I did last Friday I made a few more of those embroidery hoops that I shared with you awhile ago.
This one I did was my absolute favorite. I was actually a little sad when it sold.

There is just something about pinwheels that I love. So cute and simple...and you don't see a ton of them around these days. After staring at it for awhile I realized they would make cute hair clips too so I made some last minute and they turned out to be a hit so I made some more to sell on etsy.
Ok, I got a little carried away with how many I made because they really are fun...

So look for these soon on etsy...

Change of Plans

Welp, I took most of my clutches off of etsy. They are now available at Laurenly Clothing Boutique in Old Town Orange...so exciting! I have eight clutches there including this pretty little clutch...

So go check them out! If you have never been there you have to stop by. It is a cute little boutique! http://www.laurenly.net/
Hopefully I will have more items there soon!
As for etsy, I am still going to do it especially for the my Home Goods and Children's things. However, I must admit, I'm not as excited about Etsy as I used to be. It is an amazing website it is just taking up too much of my time. Being a stay at home mom, I only sew in my free time. It takes up all my free time just to get my stuff made and then to have to take the photos, upload them, write descriptions, etc. And then the website is sooo busy that 5 minutes later your items are already a few pages back. Sooo like I said I am still going to do it, it is just not going to be my main focus. I think I will commit to putting 1 or 2 items on etsy a week.
It is encouraging to have an awesome opportunity like Laurenly to come along because putting my items in a boutique is such an great option. I would like to find more craft fairs, and maybe another little boutique. Well, just thought I would update those who care and were wondering why my clutches disappeared off etsy.

One Step Closer

Well I have finished a few more clutches. These sure are time consuming little suckers. So, I am almost done with my ruffle clutches...one step closer to etsy!



I think this one is my absolute favorite. Probably no shock to those that know me and my obsession with blue & green.

I still have a few more ruffle clutches to finish.

I'm excited to see the finished product of the purple and green one.
Last night I took a break from the ruffle clutches to work on a new clutch. Let me know what you think.



Don't mind that open seem I left on the last picture. I wanted to get my pics up asap so I hadn't finished it yet.

Dreaming of Dandelions

Ok, so I've been working little by little on my Etsy shop. I'm so excited but it's been such a slow process...creating all the wording and store policies...boring stuff.
But here is something a little more fun...what do you think?
