Starting off the new year, I feel invigorated (still nauseous!) but very invigorated. Our shop has some new pieces in it, and we have lots more on the way in the next week or so.
We found a trio of antique linen doilies with Battenburg lace trim, and I hand embroidered "love" in the middle of them. Then my mom (and shop partner) sewed them into sweet red heart pillows, stuffed with natural cotton stuffing. I love the texture on them, and was thrilled to be able to upcycle some old linens into very functional (and pretty) pillows.
And sometimes, red and white striped pajamas (these are from Under the Nile), still worn at nearly noon, are just the thing.
And one very lovely custom order just filled for an organic sleep bag hand embroidered with some flowers and an aqua-colored tulip with vintage cotton from the 1940s.
And tomorrow is the last day to enter our Marimekko pillow + red felted hearts giveaway... you can enter here.
what a lucky babe!
