Sunday, May 2, Tillies Bean

Wow, the time is just flying! I will be doing a "trunk show" this Sunday, May 2, 12-4 @ Tillie's Bean:
1931 Nicollet Ave, 55404 (just north of Franklin)

http://www.tilliesbean.com/

I am excited! I will be with Valkyrie Design Studio and Tout de Sweet. I will have a pretty good selection of skirts with me, but as always I prefer to do custom skirts. There are SO many color combinations (and sizes) that it would be hard to keep everything on hand. I am really excited because I have a few new skirts that I have done just for this show. One is fuchsia over white with TONS of ruffles, another is mermaid (like Tiffany blue) with white. I also have some solid colors made up as well.

I hope to see you guys there! Tell your friends! Also, Tillie's bean does not "use any ingredient that a five year old cannot sound out". Awesome! Keepin' it local and simple.

St. Paul Art Crawl

Busy, busy, busy. Wow! I am getting ready for the St. Paul Art Crawl which is coming up next week already. I have SO many ideas swirling in my brain, but just not enough hours in the day to complete everything!! Why do I need sleep, why?!

The Art Crawl is April 23,24,25. Different times, check the website: http://www.stpaulartcrawl.org/

I will be in the Carleton building, 1st floor. It is right off of 94 and 280, on University. There is a map on the website of the Art Crawl- right hand side. Look under resources, then catalog or map (catalog has some awesome pictures and a listing of the artists participating). I will be with 2 other artists: Tout de Sweet and Valkyrie Designs. Amazing, specialty chocolates and beautiful, creative jewelery and hair pieces and more.

I am really looking forward to this, but I wish I had more time to prepare. I will get done what I can and that is all I can do. :)

Amazing Hair Bows and accesories







I just got in an order from another stay at home mom who has her own business. She makes AMAZING hair bows! Her name is Victoria, check out her site: http://www.totsinpolkadots.com

I have a good mix of bows, blinging flowers, crochet headbands, and some hats for sale. Please contact me if there are some that you are interested in. I have priced the blinging flowers and hair bows at $6 each. They are beautiful and go perfectly with my skirts! The bows are on french clips, the flowers on an alligator clip. The cool thing with the flowers is that you can clip them onto the waist of the skirt (where the satin meets the chiffon) to give it an extra "pop" of cuteness! :)

Leopard and Zebra and new solid colors, Oh My!! :)




I am really horrible at blogging! I think I just need to switch to an online store instead. Why am I horrible at blogging? I have been busy. Plain and simple- just busy. I actually made these skirts well over a month ago. I love them! They are both adult sizes. I also made a child's 2/3 with zebra and fuchsia. I love it! Next on my agenda, zebra with candy pink.
I am also working on skirts for the St. Paul Art Crawl which I will be participating in. I have so many fun skirts for that. (Several "Alice" inspired designs! Some red and black combinations, some classic blue and white.) I love that I can be so creative for this! I also have some beautiful combinations in the works with chocolate, mermaid, rich purples and pinks. Fun, fun, fun!!!
