Sparklers4 Sparklers8 Sparklers5Sparklers7 if you are curious why all of my photos are of my best friends, it’s because i’m too shy to ask people i just met to take their photos. did you know i’m shy? i’m really shy.

  • Im so Jealous of everyone that is able to attend all of your extremely cute & exciting events:)
    Wish I lived Closer!!!!

  • My favorite photo has got to be the one of u and erin closed eyes and giddy holding ur pops. It makes me happy for some reason. Glad ur night went well. Wish I could have been there.

    Xo

  • How fun! I wish I could visit your shop! Everytime you post pictures from there, they are so enchanting…maybe one day I’ll make it out there.

    Happy Fourth of July! Don’t eat too many hotdgos ๐Ÿ˜‰

  • What a great event you hosted at your shop. I wish I could have been there, but I live in Minnesota!
    Funny story goes like this:
    I ordered stuff from the RVA website. I received it yesterday (love it all!!!!), then noticed the city was written as “Frozen Lake”, MN, which is not where I live, and I’m not sure if there is a city called Frozen Lake in MN. Someone’s subliminal idea of how cold Minnesota is must have come onto the package envelope!! So funny to me! Thanks for the great blog, website and goodies!!! You truly are making the world sooo cute!

  • Aw, I wish I could’ve been there THIS weekend instead of two weeks from now! lol Looks like so much fun!

    And I totally understand the shyness part – I am the same way (my friends even make fun of me for it haha)! I have a personal project (that starts on my birthday), where I’m going to make myself take pictures of 100 strangers over the course of the year. I’m hoping this will help me get over my ‘social awkwardness’ haha ๐Ÿ˜›

    Hope you have a Happy 4th! ๐Ÿ™‚

  • I love your blog so much, is such a inspiration, not only for art. But life itself.. I just want to thank you so much for all your blogposts, <3

    it would be cool if you made a post sometime about what kind of paint/pencils/pens/papers you used, or just pictures of your desk-in-work kind of style. that be interesting <3 do you make all your art by hand or do you use computers for some of it too? some of it looks so perfect, like too perfect, haha.. i dont know you, but i kind of love you, in a way. haha. good summer ๐Ÿ™‚

  • HI Elsie,

    Loving the new stuff as always.

    Just wondered if you had ever thought about doing any wedding items within your ranges.

    I was at work today and noticed some place card setting which were just boring compared to the work you do.

    Thought you could do some lovely wonderful things with your ideas for place card setting, invitations, favours etc.

    I know I would buy them ๐Ÿ˜€

    have a fun popsicle filled day xx

  • That looks like one awesome party!! Elsie you are such a cutie!! I can’t believe you are a shy person…you talk to thousands of people everyday, i’m sure..you are one talented girly and full of super cuteness!!!

  • The party pics are wonderful, thank you for sharing! I’m loving the bomb pops and sparklers here. Happy 4th of July to you! *hugs*

  • Looks like everyone had a blast! I can’t wait to some check out the shop later this summer! I’m really excited now!!

  • I saw these photos early this morning. I just had to stop by the store today, where I bought the ipod case with the brown camera on it. It is actually just large enough to fit my digital camera, which is what I really wanted it for. I also bought the polaroid tee towel. There were soooo many other things I saw that I really want. I will definitely be back! You are all very talented!

  • I want to live in your shop ^^ Must be the best and cutest shop ever! To bad I live in sweden ๐Ÿ™

    Puss och Kram (Hugs and kisses)
