Pretty, pretty princesses...

Once again we had such a fabulously silly Sunday!!! We got to talk with lots of people and made some new friends. It was a beautiful day!


This was my new friend, Elizabeth who picked out her new purple and pink tutu. I even got her to twirl with me...it was so fun! What I love even more is she had to come back to show me all of the fun new goodies she got at the market that day!


She was such a little cutie, It absolutely made my day when she came back to model for us! I asked if her ruby slippers would fit me but she seemed a little unsure about that one. I guess my niece is right when she says they are just for little kids...that is until I make my own!!!! =)


Of course the day would not be complete with our little furry model!  He (yes...he but he was a great sport about it!) was a hit and sold out the "tutus de pooch"! He stole the spotlight!!! To make a great end to the day, we ventured up to a friends house and relaxed around the fire...it was a beautiful night and I look forward to the next!

Sunday Silliness!!!

This Sunday, July 25, I will be down at the Park Silly Market once again!  We had so much fun last week and looking forward to another fun weekend!  We had a great location on Main Street within the Beer Garden and will be there again this week!  Come say hi if you are out and about...should be a beautiful Park City summer day!

Yep...right in front of that 80s neon arrow is where you can find me with some new tutu color combos.  I have a big order of tulle coming in tomorrow so I can replenish my stock!  Someone was inquiring about tutus for Halloween and absolutely...we can come up with a fabulous outfit since I know it will be here before we know it!  (No matter how much I am trying to get summer to slow down just a wee bit!!!)  =)

So come visit if you are around, would love to say hi!  Plus, I should have a few more items (hoping to get a few purses done) as I also got in some new fabric the other day.  As always, if you need a different size, just let me know...I take orders!!!  ;)

Sunday Funday!!!

Yesterday was such a fun day!  Although a little warm (I am not going to complain since it is finally nice outside!!!) we managed to have a blast!

Sometimes words just won't do so pictures will have to!

She was just as excited as I was when she got this bright pink tutu!  It was for her birthday which is tomorrow and I have to admire someone who is that happy with something that is just so fun!  The cocktail waitress that was roaming around on the street and modeling the Rootbeer tutu!  (Somehow we missed that picture but it looked fabulous and raised a few eyebrows and raised some attention for my booth!













These lil' guys & dolls were soo happy rockin' their new tutus! The lil' pink tutu was for Fergie! She was the sweetest lil' thing, I wanted to take her home with me! She is 2 1/2 and seriously a doll!  ;)  The lil' Chihuahua got the black tutu with the zebra ribbon detail.  Their sibling get theirs next week only that one will be orange!!!  Can't wait to get a picture of both!


This lil' sweetie got her strawberries and cream tutu for her 1st birthday that is coming up soon!  They wanted the pink one which they thought would be perfect for pictures!  She is a doll and I managed to get a big smile out of her before they continued on their day!!!  =)

So, now it is time to get ready for the market next week!  I have to get busy on some new tutus!  I have some new colors coming and can't wait to put some new color combos together!

How does time get faster as I get older???

I have to say the first couple of weeks in July has been a whirlwind! My sister and her family came into town for the week of the 4th, we had our First Anniversary followed by my birthday week (yep...week!) and trying to get things together for back to back Silly Markets for the next two Sundays! All while trying to figure out how we already got TO the middle of July!!!

It's quite mind boggling to me.  :)

I have been working on some new aprons since I was pretty much sold out and am soooo excited for the one I cut this morning and the matching pot holders!!!  Too cute!  I am really excited too for the fabric I just ordered.  

Las Senoritas by Alexander Henry!  One of my favorite purses is out of this fabric and I am excited for all the other things I will make with it!  The colors are so bright and fabulous, I just absolutely love it!














Fiesta de los Muertos by Alexander Henry!!!  I love this one with the guitars and the colors, the skirts and flower and bows...it's so fun!  He has some of the best Folklorico style fabrics, it's hard to pick!

Although I have to say I am really starting to run out of room for all my fabric and projects...I am being overtaken!!!  I cannot wait for my studio!!!  I am still not sure which I am more excited for...my studio or the kitchen?!?!?!?!?!?

So much fabric...so little time.

I have been updating my current fabrics and am in the process of trying to add and delete to keep them current with what I have.  You can check them out on HERE Flickr!  Check back as I will be adding more and will be putting in a new order (new fabrics are out!!!) and will post those as well!

Also, I am working on some new tutus as well.  You can check out tulle color availability in the picture below if you are looking for particular combinations!!!

The tutus start at $27 and go to around $40 depending on size and ribbon options.  Feel free to send me a message or leave a comment if you are looking for anything special!  I will be working on some birthday tutus as well as holiday/special occasion but any ideas/comments are welcome! 

I have a couple of current items people have requested and have a few new retro apron patterns I am working on for my next Silly Market which will be on July 18th!  I am really excited for those and can't wait to post some new pics once I get them finished...totally fabulous!  I have to get busy but have taken some time off to visit with family that has been in town, celebrate our first anniversary and then my birthday!  It's been a busy couple of weeks I'll tell ya...and I've LOVED every minute of it!!!

Lessons in life...

Well, with the first market out of the way I have to admit I did learn a few things so I guess that is a success right? I have to admit I was thoroughly pleased with the setup and the flamingos! They were the hit of the party!



But how could he not be THE hit of the party?  My husband found his rocks so his drink would be a little closer (he is so thoughtful) and I was able to make his party hat to match the tutu!  FABULOUS!!!

I had a lot of fun and loved having my friends and family come and visit throughout the day and bring me lunch and snacks and of course all the fun people I got to talk to throughout the day!  It was an absolutely beautiful day and I was so thankful for that!!!

I learned I need to get to work on some smaller items!  I didn't have much in the way of baby/toddler inventory but will get to work and see what I can pull together for the next show.  Next time we will be sharing a 10x20 tent with my friend and my husband will be there to help me out and keep me laughing during the day!  =)

However, I am still attempting to figure out how I am going to get my sewing in since my sister and family is in town, it is the 4th of July, our FIRST Anniversary, and my birthday all rolled into a few days but once the hectic schedule simmers down the Head Elf will be back in her "workshop" to create more fluffy, sweet, delicious fun!!!

So many ideas...so little time!!!

HAPPY SUMMER!!!
(Go grab yourself a pink flamingo...they're making a comeback!!!)
