The Dress

So my very talented friend Libby has started making "Pillow Case" dresses for the company and wow they are sooooo cute. Not to mention, all she had to do was watch a Youtube video to figure out how to make them. So here are a few of her masterpieces. Way to go Libby!

Project SNC

Here is my latest addition to the Snooks N' Crannys Baby Boutique line. I was going to do a sewn tutu, but could not find instructions anywhere. So I found this really posh baby boutique on line that does really expensive and way cute tutus that are no sew, but very time consuming. It took me 2 hours to make this one and I haven't even embellished it yet because the ribbon is not in. I love love love it and I think my customers will too. My thanks goes to Kristy for the colors themes and Libby for the help making it and finding that website. I am glad we decided to do these! Let me know what you think:)



Keep in mind this is "Raw Product" without all of the embellishments!

To the women I dearly love

"May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us."

The Canton Show

So Canton was very interesting. Definitely a learning experience. Not as profitable as I was hoping, but I talked to at least a dozen other vendors and they said that August is the slowest month of the year due to the heat. Fortunately the lady in charge of Canton loved my stuff and has asked me to be a permanent vendor. Apparently getting in, in August is the best time to get your foot in the door for the busy months. September picks up a lot, but October and November are the 500,000+ people months.

So this was my setup at this last show, but it will significantly change for the next show. Martha(manager of Canton) wants a lot more detail in booths in order to move up to the hot spots at Canton. So I will have many more pics to come after the September show. I just thought I was prepared. I am glad I got to learn all of this at a smaller show rather than a big one. The positive news: Martha told me that I will need to increase the amount of product that I have by 3-5 times or I will be sold out in the first day! The other good news: I had a lady approacj me from Arizona about selling to her wholesale! I can't wait until the next show:)

Sleepy Boy

After a long day of walking around Canton with Daddy, Trev passed out in his stroller.
