just a few peeks are the invites i handmade for my little brother’s baby shower. the illustration/text is hand drawn and copied onto vellum paper with fabric leaves underneath to add a little color.
i used machine stitching on some and then japanese deco tape on the rest.
it was a fun little project. enjoyed.
also, we added sale prices to about 100 items on the site tonight! yay!! you can see them all right here. we even added a bunch of surprise $20 paintings, but they are going super fast. enjoy… my mom taught me to love a good sale ;).
i’m gonna spend the weekend thrifting, organizing and (hopefully) using my sewing machine. what are you up to? XO. els

this weekend, i will stay inside the house, sewing, knitting, do some crochet-stuff aaaaaaaaaand drink tea.
ha, this might sound boring but it is my perfect weekend.
Those invites are lovely. Uber talented, you are. This weekend consists of shopping with the girls, homecoming game where my hubby teaches, classical music concert and dinner at a place here in Cleveland called Melt Bar and Grilled (adult grilled cheeses). Hope your weather is better than here…I like the chill not the rain.
I’m coming to u when I ever decide to have a baby. Those are way cute. Just doing some thrifting and crafting this weekend. Yay!

Elsie, it was so nice meeting you last night. Your store is amazing and I could of stayed all night. I wanted everything! Thanks for helping my husband wih suprising me with the octopus necklace!!

I love the invitations. They have things going on in all the levels but are simple enough to not draw away from the message on the front. I’ve just finished my owl and am about to start on the mugs and the crochet purse from the class. Have a great weekend!

Hmmm… I have another question for the q&a posts… hope it’s not too late…
You had a blog in Blogger before you moved to Typepad, right? I wondered why you moved to here? Did you have any problems with Blogger? I have a WordPress blog and I’m considering moving to Blogger so I’d love to hear your opinion about Blogger…
Thank you so, so, sooooo much!

“You can walk beautifully in that,” manolo Blahnik says benevolently. “Even if you have the most complicated footsie.”
For women who crave his Manolo shoes but can’t comfortably wear stiletto heels, he also offers classic loafers and a dainty ballet flat. Plus, he makes some of his loveliest shoes with just a 2-inch heel.
I love to everyone’s blog to see! The artical is great, I learn much knowledge! I will also leave me to say! hehheh…
