Take me to the pool!

Finished up a custom order this week for an oilcloth beach bag. This is such a beautiful & functional accessory for trips to the pool or weekend trips to the beach. It is made of premium double-sided oilcloth, and can be wiped clean or even hosed out. The handles are triple reinforced & wrap around the bottom of the bag for extra support. The exterior boasts six deep pockets, roomy enough for tubes of sunscreen, snacks, or a couple magazines. The interior is roomy enough to hold 5 beach towels (believe it! I tried it out!) & tons of other necessities. These are going to be my new go-to gift for friends & family members. I mean seriously, what mom couldn't use a giant carry all to hold half of her house and then some?

 

 

And guess what? These two one-of-a-kind beauties below are now in the shop. Online only. Get 'em while they last.

a new dress....

 This little chick is totally into dresses lately, the first thing she does each morning is put on a "fancy dress" with matching shoes. Often times in the afternoon she will change into a new frock for our dinner (even when we are staying home for dinner). She picks her fanciest dresses to play in the dirt in, or run around outside.
So anyway, I let her pick out fabrics to 'create' her very own dress this week. I used pieces of a pattern I had just picked up & got to work.
It has great fabrics, and perfect twirlability, which is a win win in my book (and hers).
