After a little break, I am back to write! The beaches show was fun (it's already been three weeks!?); thank you to everyone who came out to support! By far, the most enjoyable part of my weekend was in meeting some new and very interesting people. There were a couple of other makers in the show whose work I am really excited about. The first is Mirit of the handmade plush toy company, Bubynoa. Mirit lovingly makes each plush out of vintage, upcycled fabric. Because of this, each little buddy is one of a kind, and just so darn sweet. They're also stuffed the exact right amount for snuggling, which is always an important deciding factor in buying a stuffed animal or doll, I think.

I got this cute little bunbun (because I'm a crazy rabbit lady). I'm planning on giving it to one of the many babies in my life right now, just trying to decide which one!?

...it has a cute, bobbly little tail, too. Excellent work Mirit! Check out her website for more adorableness.

A croque madame and day one of the Beaches Arts and Crafts Show done. Sometimes, life is pretty great.

There's still one day left at the show taking place in Kew Gardens. Come and visit us tomorrow and you'll see this little booth:

And a whole lot more! Hope you're all having a great weekend :).

I recently found a new fabric to work with that I absolutely love! It is a nice change of pace from the white/ beige palette I generally tend to stick to as a ground for my imagery. It's a 55% hemp 45% organic cotton lightweight denim that's indigo dyed. I'm using it for my new 'blueprint' napkins, debuting this weekend at the Beaches Art and Craft Show at Kew Gardens. Come check us out in booth 72 this Saturday and Sunday; the show is open 10-6 and free to enter! If you can't make it this weekend, you can check out these napkins and a few other new products on the website in the next couple of weeks.
