Finally - Photos To Be Proud Of!

 

 

Wow, it really pays to have connections right?

 

 

 Not only was I blessed with a beautiful daughter to model for me...

 But I also have a very talented photographer to capture how fabulous my creations look on her!

  If anyone is interested Splendid Photography is absolutely, well, splendid...ha!

Melanie can work wonders and she's doing our family pictures too so it's not just limited to product shots peeps!

 

Buckman Art Show and Sell

So I know I'm usually done with selling my wares by now but I couldn't resist giving the Buckman Art Show and Sell a try since they moved the date up to February this year. Crossing my fingers I can whip up enough product to sell by then so I can take a relaxing trip to Napa Valley with husband afterward. Wish me luck!

The last one folks....

Laurelhurst and Lewis Elementary in the house!!!

All Saints is next!

I'll be at All Saints holiday bazaar on November 3rd - details on where/when are to the right. If you're wearing a BigWooWear hat when you make your purchase I'll give you a special repeat customer discount. Yay for deals!!

Art in the Burbs Take Two!

This is it - the last one for the season!

Last one for the season folks! This Sunday in Sellwood woohoo! Custom orders are shipping out by the end of next week so now's the time to get them placed if you want to keep your sweetie warm for Christmas. After this one I'm going to take some much needed time off to enjoy what's left of the year with my family. Yay for cookie baking and relaxing by the fire with my hubby!

Yay!

I can't believe it's here already!!!! I'm so excited it's not even funny! Come see me at the mother of all Portland craft shows this weekend...CRAFTY WONDERLAND!!! If you have any shopping left to do or you haven't even started yet this is the place to go. With over 200 artists there's bound to be something for everyone on your list....including you. : )

Next show for the season....

Sunday 9:00am-5:00pm...Laurelhurst School Winter Artisan Bazaar, Laurelhurst School, 840 NE 41st Ave., Portland, OR 97232

I'm excited to be at the Duniway Holiday Boutique this Friday...absolutely gorgeous neighborhood so if you choose to come visit me make sure to bring your walking shoes to take a stroll if it's not raining.

Two shows to get your holiday shopping started!

First, the PDX Craft Holiday Marketplace...loads of really great artisans and right down the street from bubble tea and bahn mi!!!

Second, an intimate affair with wine tasting to boot! Come see me along with B Hive Designs (yes, I have about twenty of her adorable shirts and a few of her skirts as well - seriously, the most comfortable things I own), Amy Olson Jewelry (delicate and completely gorgeous), Mimi Muse Designs (I have a couple of her prints lining my bedroom wall thank you very much!), and Hummingbird Hoops (with these child bearing hips I might just have to try these out!).

Busy weekend on the horizon....

First show of the season...Art in the Burbs, Alberta Rider Elementary, 14850 SW 132nd Terrace, Tigard, OR 97224...20% of all sales go towards Art Programs for the Foundation for Tigard Tualatin Schools. Come out, come shop, come support a great cause!!

And so it begins....again....

It's almost here...a whole new season I can't believe it! Seems like I was just tearing down my booth from Crafty and now it's here all over again. Art in the Burbs is creeping closer and closer and I'm crossing my fingers that I'll be ready by the end of October.

For all you returning hat lovers keep an eye out as I'm going to run a special for returning customers this year....

The big daddy....

This is it folks...the big daddy of them all...the Crafty Wonderland Super Colossal Holiday Sale. What's even better than that? It's TWO days this year woohoo!! If you have any holiday shopping to finish up this is the place to do it. Hope to see you this weekend!

Oh là là...

One of my favorite shows of the year this weekend!!

And so it begins....

First show of the season this coming Sunday woohoo!! Come see me and a ton of other great vendors at Siren Nation (details on time/location to the right). Feel like a McMenamin's burger, beer, or a soak in their ginormous hot tub anyone?

New things in life....

I can't believe it - summer is almost over. In two weeks I'll have a three month old, a preschooler, and an eighth grader...holy crap. Where have the last few months gone? I feel like I've gotten nothing accomplished but I know I have done way more than most new moms could undertake.

I've had a baby....

I've grown a garden...

I've picked strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and even canned peaches for the first time...

Now all I have to do is make 300 hats and I can rest...wishful thinking right?
