So much going on....





There is so much going on & so much new in the shop! I have been busy, busy, busy working on new things for the Craftacular! I am excited.. I have so many inspirations right now! ;)

I have a few new artists at the shop.. one is a young gal name Hannah a highschool Senior in Fond du lac who came into my shop wearing the most adorable reconstructed (sort of) tee! I fell in love with it right away & she made me a few for the shop! Yay! The pic. above is the most dramatic one.. which I love.. but there are more that are not so dramatic! The added stitching on the neckline is my fav.!

I also got in some wonderful handmade natural soap made by a good friend of mine from Appleton. Liz from Namaste'Creations! The shop smells soooo good!

I also have been a busy bee working on new clutches.. I am obsessed w/ bow's!

More on this tomorrow.. but Trick or Treat is Thursday afternoon w/ downtown businesses. I will be open til' 7:00! Come and say Hi and I may have a treat for you!

Have a great day!!!! xo!

Monday inspirations....




Oh my.. I almost fell off of my chair when I found this adorable wall paper. All the items are from Anthropologie. We really want to redo our kitchen/ dining room. I have a strange wall that divides our kitchen/ living room that is going to become the coolest chalkboard paint wall...but it is the dining room nook that bugs me! It is sooo small and I can't really rearrange furniture.. and I can't decide on paint colors so what about wall paper??? We love our dogs! ( Oh and the plaid drawer pulls I just bought to give our desk a makeover..) on my wish list is the owl hook & wall paper! xoxo!

btw.. Did you notice the polkadots??? I just thought I would jazz it up a bit and I found this cool site for free blog templates.

Happy Monday!
