Updated designs







I know it's too soon for Christmas but it's been in my mind for a while and I decided to go for a new design before the holiday season. So the old felt ornaments set has been updated now there are four ornaments, one shaped like a pine cone and one like a gourd added to the two already existing designs. I think now they look even more retro than before! And of course they all have buttons :-)
Also two new color schemes have been added, a black and white and a white and black and I'm hoping to start listing lots in the shop, sets of 8 ornaments that are one of a kind since the buttons we'll use are limited.
Stay tuned :-)

Wishing you a lovely day,

In the Etsy Finds


A big surprise came in the mail today: our retro Christmas ornaments were featured in the Etsy Finds newsletter!! I keep looking at the newsletter, smiling and giggling when I see them pop up, it's such an honor to be featured with so many other wonderful picks :-)
Wishing you a great Saturday,

Last ones



Listed the last of the Christmas decorations, four garlands , seven sets of retro ornaments, one snowman and boot set, the clay trees tags and the small green and red hearts make it a total of fourteen on our holiday decor section! I've been busy with these and now that I'm done it's time to find something new to work on.
I'm thinking of entering this year's feeling stitchy contest, covered in stitches. I need to go through my books, find a cover I like and begin! This may be a bit tricky as I have lots of books and choosing one may be difficult, if you have any suggestions I'd love to hear them! It's quite a challenge, especially since I haven't done any serious stitching since the rainbow of stitches contest from last year.
Exciting new things to follow :-)

Feeling Christmassy


I know it seems a bit weird listing Christmas ornaments in September but this is our second year on Etsy and last year we learned a valuable lesson: Shipping after the end of November is an absolute nightmare. So this year I'm listing my Christmas ornaments early, hoping to avoid the long delays that are linked with Christmas shipping. There are two more felt garlands and different color combinations of retro ornaments on the way, I'm hoping to list them all by next week :-)
