New Look

So today I decided that I needed to revamp my look a little bit. Believe it or not, I haven't made any sales lately. I was hoping that the sale I ran last week would get some buyers interested, but no one bought anything. I decided that I need to make my pictures more uniform and also that I need to make them look more professional. So now I'm in the process of designing, with my husband's help a display card that will be sent will all products that I sell. I think I've figured out what I want, but putting it together is easier said than done. Now I just need to try and get some sleep so that I can get some more work done tomorrow and take care of my babies. P.S. I decided that I would let the sale run a little longer, so if you thought you had missed the sale, you didn't.

Happy Birthday to my hot hubby!

Today is my husband's birthday. I made him some great homemade gifts that were easy and mean more to him than something from the store. I hope that he had a great day today. I'll try and post pictures of what I made him and the kids soon. I've been very busy....

Crazy Days

Yesterday was a crazy day. They happen way too often lately. It was crazy mostly because miss ellie wouldn't take a nap. I would lay her down like I normally do, but she'd cry for over a half hour without falling asleep, so life was crazy yesterday. To add to that, Little man wouldn't eat hardly anything, so I was one frustrated mama. Thankfully, daddy took over making Little man take a few bites of dinner to try and save my sanity. I was able to do a few new flower headbands and a clip, so I'll put those up on the website today. Hopefully, I'll be able to finish some ties I cut out and put those up on the website, but who knows. I need to finish my hubby's birthday present so it depends on if the kids work with me today or not and how much I'm able to accomplish.

Fun Filled Weekend



I had an excellent weekend with my family. Yesterday we got some much needed yard work done in the front yard and the back yard was started. We were able to go into town and have a date at my favorite mexican food place, Cafe Rio. Yum. My husband took me to Hobby Lobby for the first time and I loved it. He was such a good sport, he has craft store "claustrophobia," where he freaks out usually after 5 or so minutes. Not so at Hobby Lobby. We spent over an hour there and had fun. I've decided that Hobby Lobby is my new favorite find. I can't wait to go back. I've decided that I want to get material and a pattern there for a simple yet elegant dress for miss ellie to wear for Christmas. I think I'll even make a matching tie for little man. I'm so excited. What a fun weekend.

I'm back!

I had a great weekend with most of the girls from my family. We went shopping, ate out and had tons of fun in general. I took a break yesterday to try and get some much needed rest. I was able to post new pictures of some beenies my little sister made and fix the onesie picture.

Onesies

Last night I went shopping for some fabric and items to make applique onesies. I had finally learned how to make them this week and since I had been asked if I had anything for boys I decided to start doing some onesies. I made some patterns up and voila they're up on the website now for purchase. I'm very excited about them. I was even able to make one for miss ellie with one of her white onesies. She got a mickey mouse shape in red polka dots. I'll eventually roll that design out too, but I want to perfect it first. Also yesterday I was able to finish one of the ties I want to roll out, so keep an eye out for more products. Now to get onto cleaning before my company comes.

Keeping Busy

So today to keep busy and not dwell on missing little man i decided to craft again. I made a tie for boys and will start selling them as soon as I get some more cute boy fabric. I also made some templates for some applique shirts for boys and girls. So I should have some new products rolling out soon. If anyone has any ideas about designs for shirts let me know.
