There is a 3T available here.
This style sold out right away, but I had mis-marked the size on one, so I'll be making the buyer of it a new one in the size she thought she was getting, which means there is still one left. :)
Also, provided the wind holds off on me today and I can finish taking the pictures of the Thanksgiving pinnie, it should be available tomorrow.
Have a great day! :0)
The sale items are up on the website and they are ALL $15 and Ready-To-Ship!!!
Click here to go directly to the sale section.
Great for some Christmas gift buying...
Almost all are new styles like these:
{ I know this one looks more like a spring/summer skirt, but can't you see it with some leggings, a red, black, pink or green sweater and some cute boots or clogs? }
{ This one would be sweet for Thanksgiving along with the matching skirt below }
Then there is the return of the ever-popular owl print:
There is only ONE of these in the $15 section, but more available here.
There is also a matching skirt ( only one ) that I am trying to decide whether or not to keep in stock...
And, one of these snuck in:
For some reason I had an extra laying around, so even though this style is not on sale right now, you have a chance to grab one for $15 if it's a size you can use!
Many of these items there is only one of, but a few have 2-3 available in various sizes. I can still get the fabrics for most of them, so if you missed out on a style that you really want, let me know. It just won't be $15 any more. :)
Happy Monday!
I have a pumpkin whoopie pie update, but that will have to be saved for another day. :)
I just wanted pop in and mention a few things~
1) Scrappy Packs are available again!
2) Tomorrow ( 11/10 ) there will be several new pinnies as well as a few skirts on the website.
They are in a variety of sizes, priced to go and ready to ship! Then on Thursday ( 11/12 ) I will have the Thanksgiving/Harvest pinnie available. I know some of you may want to grab a sale pinnie before it's gone, but might also want the harvest one. If so, just let me know that you want your order held until that one is available and then should you decide you want it too, we can ship them together. Just place a separate order and I'll send you a shipping refund. Sorry I am not putting it all up at once, but it's just easier for me to do this in batches.
3) For those of you who do not already read her blog, my friend Crystal at Little Bit Funky is doing an awesome series of holiday favorites giveaways ~ You need to check it out!!
4) One of my favorite fabric sources on Etsy has a brand new website! I love ordering from these guys, they have the.fastest.shipping.ever. Really. And they are super friendly and helpful to boot! I don't think they will be selling on Etsy anymore, but the website is awesome and has so many more features than can be offered on Etsy ( like tiered pricing and better search options ). So, you need to check that out, too! :)
Okay, gotta scoot ~ Have a great day and I'll let you know when the new pinnies are in the shop tomorrow!
Okay, so you know that I have recently developed an addiction to whoopie pies thanks to a local Dallas bakery who makes a mean one. In addition to stopping in to see if they have any available whenever I am in the area, I have taken to trying to perfect making them myself. I really like this recipe, but just could not quite get the filling right. That is until this week.
You see, the recipe calls for this:
which we can not get here in Texas short of ordering online because it's an east coast thing. Boston specifically I think ( please correct me if I'm wrong though! ). So, in the past I just used regular marshmallow cream. BUT, while grocery shopping in Maine last month, I happened to see the Fluff on a shelf and grabbed a jar to bring home. I should have got more. I made the whoopies again this week using it and BIG difference!!! Definitely the key to the filling. Guess I better find a good online source or beg someone who has easy access to it to send me some ( Kristen? *wink* ). So, if you make whoopie pies and the filling calls for marshmallow FLUFF, be sure to use it and not the cream. Otherwise, I would recommend just making a buttercream or cream cheese filling instead.
And speaking of cream cheese, look what else I discovered this week:
At Williams-Sonoma.
Yes, they are $50 ( for 12 ), but I'll let you know if it's worth it (the reviews on their website say they are) cause guess who's about to make a trip into the store to grab a box? :)
What can I say? I told you I was addicted.
Now, I do have to admit that the price tag on those would prevent me from buying them too often, so I am now on a quest to find a pumpkin whoopie pie recipe, or if not, I will just play around and create my own. The ones at WS have a cream cheese filling, which is easy enough, it will just be a matter of getting the cookie part right ( it's sort of a cake-like consistency ). If I could also find a mini pumpkin baking pan that would be even better! If any of you have seen one somewhere, PLEASE let me know! We have a LOT of people coming for Thanksgiving this year and these would be a great snack for kids and adults alike.
Have a happy Thursday all and I DO plan on getting the new Thanksgiving/Harvest pinnie up ASAP as well as a few ready-to-ship, OOAK, $18 pinnies. Great for Christmas gifts! :)
Oh, and there is only one each of the tester bubble skirts left (you choose the size).
Just Sayin' - if you had your eye on one, this is your last chance!

Happy Monday ~ Hope your weekend/Halloween was fun!
Mine was spent with the nieces ~ My sister-in-law brought them over Saturday night so that they could go trick-or-treating in our neighborhood. I have not been trick-or-treating in years, so I had a blast! Kathryn is still a bit young to fully enjoy it, and Ellie really could have cared less, but we had a great time anyway! Miss K had a ballerina costume, but she looked so cute in her black cat Halloween t-shirt, and she really doesn't even get the dressing up thing yet anyway, we decided just to keep her in that. Miss E wore Kathryn's ladybug costume from last year and looked SO adorable. Check out those cheeks...
wanna reach out and squeeze 'em don't you?
Kathryn wasn't quite sure what to do with all that candy ( thank goodness! ) and was more into her glow in the dark bracelets... I think she had 4 on by the end of the night, though they had disappeared by the time this picture got taken.
One of the neighbors went all out this year giving out popcorn bags, cotton candy, fun trinkets and cute little treat bags. Auntie Ashley helped to eat the cotton candy... Hey,Kathryn much preferred the suckers anyway!
I have to say, it seemed like there were a lot more kids out this year than in the last few years. With all the festivals, carnivals and parties that go on, not to mention general safety concerns, it seems like plain 'ol trick-or-treating is becoming a thing of the past. It was fun to see the streets full again and we actually almost ran out of candy. Almost. Several of our neighbors did, and early in the evening, too. Of course it doesn't help that a few groups of older kids kept coming back, or sending their friends up to the door... That was a little annoying.
Anyway, October is over and my mind is already on Thanksgiving unfortunately! :) And speaking of, I do have a pinnie just for the occasion and will try to have it up here in a few days. It's completely ready to ship and the price will be lower than usual, so be sure to snap one up because once they're gone, there won't be any more!!
I'll also be re-posting tomorrow with the few fabric remnants still available as well as a couple more added in that I found this weekend in case you missed out on the original posts.
Have a great day! :0)
And, in case you need something sweet to eat, I tried this pie the other night and loved it! It's fast, easy and takes just a few ingredients. I'm sorry I don't have a photo, but it didn't last long enough for me to get one!! ;)
Decadent Truffle Bottom Chocolate Cream Pie
You know I can't resist sharing adorable photos.
I love these sent to me by Ursula of her daughter in our Pop Garden pinnie.
{ I want those red polka dot shoes... }
Hmm, I discontinued that one, but maybe I should bring it back....
Ursula is a photographer and you can check more of her awesome work out here
Happy Wednesday all ~ Only two more days until Friday and three until Halloween!! It's rainy and cold here, but it's supposed to clear up by this weekend so I've got my fingers crossed! :0)
I totally forgot that I DID have another bubble skirt sample to offer as well as one more corduroy pinnie... Duh!
I have 3 of the skirts available at the tester price. Also, just re-arranged things on the website so that you can see the new items better. Sorry about that! I was trying to work fast yesterday and it just didn't, well, work. ;)
FINALLY!!
The new items are on the website only and don't forget to check out the clearance section!
Here are a few things to note~
1) Right now the new pinnies and sale items will not be in the Etsy shop. They will be eventually, but I am really, really trying to build up the website right now. I know shopping on Etsy is MUCH more fun, and we'll still doing that, but as I have mentioned before, it is much more expensive for me to sell on there rather than on the website. If I can just balance it out a bit, I would be happy! :) I'd rather cut back by reducing my fees on Etsy than in other areas.
SO, to give you a little incentive to make a purchase off there, how about this:
15% off all regular priced merchandise AND if you refer a friend who makes a purchase, you and they will receive free shipping no matter where you are or how big the package is. Just don't forget to tell your friend to tell me that you referred them! :)
2) The bubble skirt tester is for the fabric shown (featherwale corduroy), BUT if you would like it in another print, just let me know. This is an adorable skirt ( and would look so, so cute with tights and clogs or boots... ), but as always with a new item, I am looking for a little feedback. Only 5 are available at that price, so if you are interested in being a Lassie tester, grab one while you can! :0)
And finally, I have two more fabric remnants available so if you are interested in either, leave a comment. For those of you who bought some of the other remnants last week, I will not be sealing your packages up until later today, so if you want to add one of these, you can.
1/2 yard LECIEN Minny Muu (Japan) ~ $5
1/2 yard Timeless Treasures APPLE FLOWERS (brown ) ~ $3.50
There are still more new items to come as well as an actual sample sale. I have several pinnies all sewn and ready to ship in various sizes in brand new fabrics, so I'll try and get those up later this week if possible. Christmas is coming and it's not too early to start shopping...
Have a happy Monday!
