Well I hope so, because Trendy Textiles does! To show just how much they love Sugar Snap, they have invited Melissa Averinos to join them in a wonderful launch featuring fabrics from her brand new Sugar Snap line!
And Mary has posted a wonderful interview with Melissa on the Trendy Textiles blog.
Here is my contribution to this lovely launch........
**Warning this post is very long and lots of pictures!**
I am going to try an catch up on everything that you have missed in the past month.
Lets see.... Where should I begin?
I guess where I last left off would be a good place to start.
Remember the beautiful couple from this post? Well, they held the wedding in a little sanctuary in the mountains. It's actually her father's property and I cannot even begin to tell you how amazing this place is! He has taken several old, abandon homes and refinished them. They are all on one piece of property and they all share the most amazing forest of trees, swinging bridges, gazebos, two zip lines, bouncing spring swings, a Joey, and pathways from gazebo to gazebo.
It is the coolest place. My kids were in heaven!
Here are a couple of the lovely pictures.
The leaves have been falling like crazy too! My yard has been covered in leaves several times over. The kids absolutely love this time of year.
Here are a couple of the Fall pictures I have been promising.
I also have them listed in my other Etsy shop.
Speaking of Etsy shops.............. I have totally stocked my shop with lots of yummy items for the holidays. Here are a few.........
And the girls from Trendy Textiles have been having a game of Mistletoe Marathon. Stop by and check it . It lasts for a couple more weeks!
Well, I think that is enough for one catch up post.
Not quite, but it seems to be in the near future. The temperature has drastically dropped this past week as the wind has whipped through knocking all of the beautiful red and gold leaves from the trees. Fall is a beautiful time, but it always brings the chilling reminder that winter is near. I'm not ready for winter yet. The house is still only half painted, the wood is not chopped, and I'm not ready to be cold again.
Ok, now that I've complained, I can move on the fun part of winter. Hot chocolate and marshmallows, and Smores..............
It's bright... It's flirty... It's so much fun, you almost forget it's winter when you see it!
I just listed it on eBay today with AbbeyRoad and guests.
Little, T had so much fun with this photo shoot. I just have to share a few more pics with you, because she was such a little poser. My family will like this, since this is about the only time they get pictures of my kids anymore, lol.
As for the falling leaves and chilling air... We took a drive Sunday afternoon and I got some great photos. I will post them next. (first I gotta get 'em out of the camera)
TTYL,
Mandy
The kids are heading back to school tomorrow and that means that I will be down to 2 at home for a few hours a day. My 4 year old will be starting pre-school this year, so I hope that will help the two little ones bond more.
There are so many things I have needed to blog about, but unfortunately my blogging time always seemed to get filled with some other seemingly important event. So I will give you a quick rundown of the events over the past month and cram it all into one post.
We had a lucky winner on the MommaSassy blog. I hope she is loving her new hairflower.
You can also find one like this in my Etsy shop!
I have recently gotten out from under a wonderful load of brand new Incognito Wallets, which I made for a wonderful customer to offer in a boutique show this fall!
Many of these little wallets were made from the amazing Farmers Market fabric from Sandi Henderson. In fact, Sandi featured one of them on her blog recently.
Thanks Sandi:)
Finally, the Farmers Market on eBay is in full swing. Stop by and check out the amazing designers that are listing.
Here is the dress I have listed. (it's ending in a very short time, but I may list it again in my Etsy store, once I get caught up)
and I collaborated with GlassSlipper for this launch. She made this amazing little hair clip.
and I made a lotus flower to match.
you can find it here.
Oh and my dress was featured on The Custom Boutique Child blog. Thank you:)
Ok, I think that's all for a day or so. I've got to get back to making those fun little Incognito Wallets. I will post more on the show when it gets close.
xoxo,
Mandy
I have been having a ball with Sandi's latest fabric line. I created this Dahlia mommy and me set for my Etsy launch with Trendy Textiles.
and I also listed the pants without the dolly pants on Ebay for the ElanB guest launch. Thanks to the ladies in ElanB for inviting me to launch with them:)
And nobody stayed home. Come join us on Etsy for the Trendy Textiles first Mommy and Me launch. We have decided to use Sandi's yummy Farmer's Market prints to coordinate some of the most adorable Mommy and Me items.
One of my sweet friends, Mary of Flourishes has just blogged an interview with one of my favorite fabric desingers, Erin McMorris. Erin is the creative mind behind Park Slope, one of my all time favorite fabric lines.
The interview is a great read, so stop by and check it out. You won't be disappointed.
And if you love her fabrics as much as I do, stop by the Trendy Textiles launch on Etsy and see what we've created with her amazing fabric line!
I just listed a few things for the Trendy Textiles launch on Etsy with the fabulous Park Slope fabrics. I am offering my twirl skirt set as separates, so you can mix and match. And I have listed two brand spanking new items for Moms and Teens!
"What is it?" you ask. It looks like a wallet, it feels like a wallet....... It's more than a wallet though!
The brand new "Incognito Tampon Wallet"
It holds 4 tampons and has a pocket for pads, liners, or whatever you feel like puting in there!
There are two currently available in my shop, but if you want to have one custom made in your choices of fabric, just drop me a line.
Whether it's back to school, summer play, or school pictures, this set is perfect! I just love the Park Slope line. It is so retro and playful. I just listed this set on eBay today for the first Trendy Textiles eBay launch (yipee), so stop by and check it out.

Recognize the polka dot one? I had it in my Etsy store and I love it so much, I decided to offer it on eBay too!
Speaking of Etsy store, I have been stocking it frequently, so pop in and see what's new.
Other news, it looks like we may see a heat wave over here, so hopefully I will start having some fun pictures to share with you.

Since summer seems to be getting farther away, I have indulged in these bright summery prints and have created some of the most vibrant items with them.
I have listed 2 dresses in my Etsy store today and plan to list many more items over the next week. So stay tuned!
