Thank You Imogen's Garden!!

The last few days have been CRAZY around here - rain, rain, more rain, power outages (not us yet - knock on wood!), students who are stir crazy - literally! - and an incredibly lllooooooonnnnnngg list of things that I need to get done.

And then I get this lovely message from Anna over at Imogen's Garden letting me know that she's written about the DIY Clip Kits that I sent over to her and her daughters to try out. Oh how she brightened my day!!

Go by and check it out - she's so sweet (and I'm so proud)! (Imogen's Garden Blog)

Here's a peak at the clip:

Kelly Anderson Photography

With all the incredible designers on Etsy, you can imagine how thrilled I was when I got a convo from a darling lady name Kelly. She had paid me the most wonderful compliment by wanting to photograph some of my tees and when she wrote "would you be interested?", I actually said "Ummm.. Yeah!" out loud!


She takes such colorful, sweet and thoughtful photographs and has the cutest models ever!! You can see her photography site HERE, her design site HERE and her blog HERE.


I was so excited to see her first blog post in her Designer Spotlight Series featuring some of the pictures that she took with the Preschool Rocks tee that I had sent her.


There are some more pictures in the works and I have to say, I am giddy with excitement!

One Of My Favorites... zuzu girl handmade

Kristi, the magician behind zuzu girl, was probably one of the first friends that I made on Etsy. I had joined the EtsyMoms team and noticed her banner and avatar right away. They were fresh and fun and after checking out her shop, I thought to myself - WOW! This lady is talented!! Lucky for me, she is just as sweet and we quickly started "talking" in the threads.

A while back, I had listed my first Paint It Yourself tee and Kristi commented on how much she liked it. Hoping to get some good feedback from someone whose opinion I trusted and valued, I quickly sent one to her for her daughter Zuzu to enjoy. (see blog post here: http://zuzugirlhandmade.blogspot.com/2009/11/paint-it-yourself.html ) The best part about it all was that she was sweet enough to send me a little somethin' somethin' in return.

Now, I know - it's been forever since she sent these darling goodies to me and I have not one good excuse for it taking me so long to post this. All I can say is that my darling, little girl (part dinosaur lover, part princess) LOVES this headband and pony holders!! She asks for them everyday! Everytime anyone sees her wearing them, she always gets compliments. Which then prompts her to want to wear them more! But that's ok :) I'd love to be able to send some sales her way!

SO.... if you love what she sent Paige, you HAVE to check out her shop! She has absolutely adorable accessories (say that 5 times fast!), an amazing eye for colors and an incredible attention to detail. You will not be disappointed!!
