New Fall scarves!

It may not feel like Fall

in Wisconsin yet but as we all

know the weather changes quickly!

 

I have been busy working on new cotton snap

scarves in pretty Fall colors!



I will not be at the market

in Appleton this Saturday so

I decided to get a head start on

restocking my etsy shop!

 



 

The scarves posted are just a few.. I have 16

scarves available & will ne adding more

as well as started on my plaid unisex scarves!

 

I should be back at the market next weekend

weather permitting & I will be

at Octoberfest in downtown

Appleton September 27th. :)

 

Head on over & check out my etsy shop..

the link is on the right hand side or click

Have a great day! xo!

We went to the chapel & got maaaaarrried!

 

 

 

 

We got married July 27th in

the cutest chapel at Glacier Hills county

park! Stay tuned for more

photo's by

my talented friend

Laurie Marie Photography!  

 

 

 

So to say the least..

I have been a little busy! ;)

 

I will be at the (downtown Appleton) market tomorrow

with the start of my Fall hair accessories

& scarves. The handsome

guy next to me in the photo who I am now

lucky enough to call my husband will be

by my side helping out for the day.

 

Have a great weekend friends! 

 

I am a lucky lady! xoxo!

5 days & counting....

 

I am in full wedding mode! I am getting married in 5 days!

EEEEEEEK! :)

 

I just finished up my fabric flower boquet.

I made this boquet using sticks that my fiancés boys & I

found on a walk one day as well as

scrap fabric that I had in my sewing room.

 

 

I found the DIY on pinterest but

changed it up a bit! I love how it turned out!

I am allergic to a lot of real flowers so

this boquet is cute, allergy friendly &

I will be able to keep it forever!

 



We have been saving spaghetti sauce tins for about

6 months now to use as vases for

the reception hall.

I will have real flowers in these. I simply hot glued

some of my scrap fabric to the tins & we ordered about

20 mixed boquets from Trader Joes.

 

I can't wait to see it all come together!

 



 

5 days & counting!!!!! :)

New skirts & baby Rosies!

 

I have been busy this week

sewing a new batch of baby Rosie

headbands! I love the prints in this set!

I did add a few inches to them per

requests from some of my

market customers! :)

 

I will be adding these to my etsy shop soon!

 

 

 

A sneak peek at a few of the wrap skirts

that I finished. I have

6 new skirts!

You will want to get to the market

early this week! I have a feeling they will

go fast. Come see me this Saturday at the downtown

Appleton market 8-12:30.

We are on Oneida st.

 

 

I will be off from the market next weekend!

I am getting married!!! Yay!

 



 

Have a great day! xoxo!

The wedding countdown has begun...

 

Our wedding is now less then two weeks away!

I have been working on some

last minute handmade

details.. like this

Mr. & Mrs. sign.

 

I found the template online

traced it, glittered it &

just need to add the ribbon for

our table or chairs! :)

 

 

 

This is both of our second marriages

so we are not asking for gifts,

 lets just just say

after combining two households we

had, HAD a lot of stuff. We are finally

comftorable with what we have

gotten rid of & what we have kept!

 

With that being said we decided to

make a simple card box

out of a vintage picnic basket to

add to our "picnic" theme, so guests

can drop a card in there if they wish.

 

The top was a bit rough so I

painted it with chalkboard paint.

(I will show some after pictures soon)

I decided to make some

simple pennant banners for

the chapel & the reception hall.

We have to set up &

tear down the same day so I want to keep

the decorations simple.

 



 

 

  Everything is almost ready.

We just have a few more little details to

finish! I can't wait to marry

my best friend! He really

is! I can't begin to tell you

how lucky I am!!

 

(below is my Mr's ring box!)

 



 

& last but not least! I am in full market

vending season!

Last Saturday was my busiest

day this summer!

Thank you to all of you for your support

& for allowing me to do what I love everyday!

I promise to be back to

posts about dainty daisies soon! :)

 

Have a great day! xoxo!

White bunting for our wedding!

 

Here is a view of the chapel

where we will be married next month!  ♥

 

 

I am hoping to make a whole

bunch of white bunting to hang from the ceiling

beams & then we will take them over

to the reception hall.

our photographer (& one of my very best friends)

is bringing her white ruffled backdrop as well.

I want everything to look very natural. 

 

I also want to make fabric covered tea lights

& the wood signs!

 

 The wedding is just

over a month away now, it

seems like we have so much to do..

I am getting so excited!!!!

We are having a casual/family

We have been checking quite a few things off

    Who knew there were sooo many types

of gingham tablecloths. We settled for these!

New summer wrap skirts!

new pretty fabric for summer

wrap skirts!

downtown Appleton Farm Market

Whirlwind!

 

The past month or so has been a whirlwind!

We have 3 boys with birthdays from April to

May.. not to mention my birthday is

Mid May. It was

a busy month!

 

Now that June is here.. I will be busy

with summer vending.

 

Here is my set up at the Maker Market

in Bay View Sunday!

It was a fantastic day & the crazy rain

held off until after the show.

 

 

My daughter just had her 9th dance recital.

She will be in high school

next year & to say I am proud is a

understatement! She did such

a great job! It is so fun to watch her

grow, she started dancing when

she was 6!

Congratulations Jada Rayne!

 



 

Max started baseball so we spent our

memorial day watching Jada march in the

band in Oshkosh, hung out with great friends then

off to Max's baseball game!

It was a great day!

 

&.... the wedding! Eeeeek! It is

less then 2 months away now!

I am getting so excited!!! We just purchased our

wedding bands, some decoration items

which will be simple as it is

a family picnic theme &

Jada's dress! I also made the bow tie

shown below. Max will be wearing that

to match his sister. :)

I can't wait!

 

I will also be at the downtown

Appleton farm market June 21 is the kick off

to the season! I should be on Onieda st. off college

in my usual spot!

 

It's been a whirlwind! Happy Monday! xo!

90s dresses with a new look...

 

I found all of these adorable dated 90s dresses

at thrift shops, removed the shoulder pads,

cut off a few inches, hemmed them

& tada totally cute

90s baby doll mini dresses!

 

 

I love the peter pan collar dress shown above

They are so cute! I really love

the idea of saving a dress & giving it

a new life! Yay for recycling!
