Itty Bitty Pillow Friends

With the holidays just around the corner I can't wait to introduce some new items that I am working on - one of which are my Itty Bitty Pillow Friends. 

More reveals as the holidays draw closer. Huzzah!

I'm Bringing Brooches Back

When you think of brooches does the vision of your grandmother and her BINGO team pop into your head? Not anymore!

I love the idea of wearing a brooch, it's so elegant. With the new designs that I have been working on, wearing a brooch will be oh so much fun!

 Happy cupcakes in Chocolate, Strawberry, and Vanilla. Mmm Neapolitan with sparkle!

 I scream. You scream. We all scream for Ice Cream!

 If you haven't noticed yet, my doggie Tali is the best thing in my life. He inspired this brooch that I think captures his playfulness quite well. 

 Fly away with Unicorn Friend! I've been wanting to do a balloon brooch for awhile. This is one of my personal favorites. 

 Even though T-Rex Friend might eat you, he will still love you. Teehee.

Sweet and simple, it's Brontosaurus Friend!

All of these designs are available in my shop on Etsy. So if you're 10 or 100 (but you feel like you're a kid) then I think I have something just for you. 

Renegade Craft Fair(s) Recap

It's been a crazy busy few weeks and now that the show season is officially over, I can catch up on a few things.

The past two weekends were the Renegade Craft Fair shows. I had never been a part of the shows before and was both excited and nervous about being a vendor. I didn't know what to expect but at least I was sharing with my dear friend Genevieve. She is the delightful genius behind Le Petit Elefant.

Both shows were fantastic (minus a bit of mud at the LA show, that was quickly remedied). I do have to say that the San Francisco show was my favorite one out of the three shows that I did this season. I'm sure it had something to do with being back in the bay area and seeing my friends who I have missed being around. I may be in LA but my heart is definitely in the bay area. 

That's my lovely friend Liz who helped me all weekend.

Unique LA Holiday Show

This past weekend marked my first holiday show of the season; Unique LA. It was insane how many people came by (in a good way).

I am so glad to have finally met some vendors whose work I knew but faces I did not. I also met up with some old friends and made some new ones.

All in all a great, exhausting weekend!

Me and Unicorn Friend

Now time to get ready for Renegade Craft Fair LA this weekend and  Renegade Craft Fair SF the weekend after.

new look for unicorn crafts

 

unicorn crafts just got a mini make-over.

i just made some business cards using moo.com! moo is amazing. not only are they pretty cheap but they use recycled and sustainable materials for their products. another plus is that you can get front and back full color printing for no extra cost AND you can upload multiple images for the front design. so now you can have more variety in how you present your business.

if you are looking for a place to print cards, check out moo!
