The year is winding down...

I can't believe it has been almost two months since I've blogged. I admittedly got very burnt out right around the first of October and took a huge mental break. My orders were very plentiful, thank you to my wonderful customers! But it got to the point where it was taking four to five weeks for some orders to go out. As blessed as I am to have a popular website, it does take a toll on my home and my family.

The break was well worth it for me and gave me new energy! My faithful followers will be pleased to know I am reopening on January 1!

The design group I am part of (DillyDally) is getting ready to launch around the third week of January. Exciting things are happening!

For now, here's a new listing on Etsy. A bow bouquet stuffed with goodies for a little wild child!

A Magic Kingdom

Search Boutique AMK all this week for the much anticipated A Magic Kingdom launch. There will be so much to see. I'll post my listings soon!

It's a Holiday Parade!

Today is parade day! Sugar3 invited all of the ladies from DillyDally to decorate a float. Our float theme is "Holiday Movie Madness" and we have some great listings to share! Search Sugar3 Parade starting today!

Warm Colors for Cool Weather

Anyone who knows me well knows that I'm a fall weather person. I love that time of year. Mark and I picked our wedding to be around Columbus Day weekend in October for the color and scenery that New England has to offer, but also for the crisp, cool air. So here it is in mid-August, hotter than I would like- so my thoughts are turning to fall. Here's a set made with rich autumn colors, including some flowers and butterflies. They are finished and ready to ship, offered at a great price!

Halloween Cuties

Here are more fun Halloween/Fall bows listed for the Lil Peas and Guests go Batty launch. The first bow will match the Mickey Vida Dress by Terri of pink*freckled*frogs. If you're taking a trip to Disney in the fall, this dress would be perfect!

And next is a pair of bows with painted owl centers to match dress by Stephanie of Room*6. I found some little wooden owls so I painted them to match the owl applique on the front of her dress. The 5-pieces can be worn as a set, or take the owls out and wear them separately. So many options!

If you're kids are starting school this week, best wishes for a great start! We still have a full week of summer left here, plus a few days. We start back on August 26.

Sis BOOM!

It's always fun collaborating with Carrie of PunkyFaeDesigns. Her daughter Jordan is so cute. I've been able to see her grow during the last year or so that I've known her (in pictures, of course...even though she lives just a few hours away!) Take a look at this cute owl vida dress made with Jennifer Paganelli's beautiful Sis Boom fabrics. The hair set includes six mix-and-match pieces.
