Hi, 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!
