Snow

This week we took our girls to see some snow. It is still so strange to me that they are growing up without seeing a real changing of the seasons so this annual pilgrimage to Tahoe is very important to me.

In other news, my sports loving brother tells me that the hockey season is back on so I thought it was very timely that I got this fun espresso cup order from some hockey fans. I loved being able to take the sneak peek picture with real snow as the background. But it's back to the green and blue of the parks and lagoons of home on Friday.

For the love of clothes

I love people. I love talking to them, working with them, getting to know them, so custom orders are a lot of fun for me. I am hoping to do a few posts that highlight some of them

I really enjoyed working on this one.

Two friends ordered it for a third that works as a consultant (or Trunk Keeper as they are called) for Matilda Jane Clothing. They sent me photos of the outfits their friend likes most and left up to me what to do with that. I also did my own research and the outfits are too cute for words. You can bet that my girls will be getting some for the holidays :). I decided to put the clothes on the clothes line and added the girl's name and the company to the top. My customers were a joy to work with and promised to let me know their friend's reaction. I hope she likes her gift :)

Something Different

I've been experimenting a bit just for fun :)

I actually sold this one which was a first for me :)

This one was for my daughter's room:
