Thursday, June 24th, 2010Book Signing. June 17th. Be there.
Wednesday, June 16th, 2010Hi, lovelies! I’ve been spinning around lately, just returned from a trip down to California to sell at a big music festival, saw Lauryn Hill live, and picked up 2 new boutiques to sell betsy & iya. Shwew!!
I’m POOPED, to say the least, but I can’t take any days off and here’s why:
You know that AWESOME book I keep rapping about, well…
on THURSDAY, JUNE 17TH, starting at 7 pm, there will be a book signing for the AUTHOR of The Handmade Marketplace, Kari Chapin. I am sooo excited to have her in my shop and for the opportunity for you all to meet her. If this is the first time you are hearing about the book, I shout—GET IT! It is one of the most useful books that has ever come out for us crafter entrepreneurs. I am so honored her publisher wanted to do the signing at my studio and even more honored that I’m a small blip in the book.
Please come by on Thursday and say hello to us!!
1722 NW Raleigh St., Suite #101 (on the corner)
Can’t wait to see/meet you again!

A perfect match.
Friday, May 7th, 2010Isaac and I debuted our collaboration at Crafty Wonderland last weekend. It was a huge hit. I’ll be selling more of the pieces this weekend at the St. Johns Bizarre (tomorrow in SJ from 10am to 6pm)!
To entice you:
proud new owner
I hope you’ll stop by the booth tomorrow and say hello!
Happy early Mother’s Day (especially to my sweet mama)!

Outfit of the Day: charleston place.
Monday, April 12th, 2010(Several days ago, I gave you an OOTD preview and then completely left you hanging! so sorry! Thanks for being patient. Without further ado, I give you: charleston place.)
We stayed at the historic Charleston Place hotel, right in the middle of downtown Charleston. The moment we got in there, we were overjoyed with the decor—-the warmth, the detail, the tradition, mmmmm. We immediately jumped into photo-shoot mode. Seriously, for at least 30 minutes, my mama, sis and me took pictures of the gorgeous room and each other in it.
So. much. FUN.
Chocolates on your bed. Whaa?? Who does that any more??? love.
That moment stood out as one of my faves of the whole trip. I mean, what’s more fulfilling than being completely goofy with the ones you love most? So I combined it into my Outfit of the Day.
girly dress: Free People from Radiance in Hilton Head. (a new boutique who will be carrying my line)!
graphic tights: from Philly’s Bus Stop boutique (another loyal betsy & iya seller)!
boots: Frye.
new earrings and necklace: betsy & iya
Turns out mama has some SKILLZ with the camera…go mama!! I heart this new head shot!
And then…ahhh…my favorite shot of all—the real deal, iya. Sis, you melt my heart.
More on this east coast journey to come (including: my trip to Etsy headquarters, the NU hotel in Brooklyn, and sweet memories of childhood beaches. Also, I’ll be listing those new key/chain earrings for you today.)
I hope you’re holding your Monday’s hand and skipping all the way into the sunset!
