Celebration Sale and Darling New Duds

Just a quick post to announce the celebration sale going on over at the Shop.



*All kitchen towels are now $6.50.
*Most limited edition clothing is $20.00.
*Most T-Shirts are now $18.00.
I decided against doing a different sale everyday and just went with 3 deals that will run all week.



There's also a few new styles coming this week which are included in the aforementioned sale. Words can't express just how I feel about this lovely yellow ditty.
There's also a pink version that I'm equally speechless over.

Happy shopping lovelies and have a great Tuesday!

B&W Goodness.

As promised, here's a pic of my new workbench/shipping station, it's perfect for holding all my packing supplies and makes getting orders out a breeze.



It's been painted and screen printed with my sprocket design, but it's still not done. Eventually a super large scooter will grace the peg board as well as the table part. I love how it's coming along and wanted to show it off. I also wanted to remind you all of the "New Studio Celebration Sale" that I'll be having in the Shop all of next week with a special deal each day.



This includes my limited edition goods as well like this new sew a go shirt now in black and white. So stop by on Monday and take a peep lovelies.



Tah,

I've moved!

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

I've been away for sometime but not without good reason, Andy and I have just wrapped up a move to the new M.M. studio, a small carriage house right behind my house. True it wasn't as easy peasy as I thought it'd be. But two weeks, several break downs, and bags upon bags of fabric (seriously where did it come from?!) later and we're all moved in, not quite work ready but damn it we're IN! Hopefully I'll have more workspace pics up soon and new designs even sooner. I'm off to finish working on this really fun idea I have for my workbench, pics coming soon.

Signing off for now but not long,
X.O.-

Wait what?!

It's New Years Day some how. I have no clue how this happened it kinda snuck up on me. So guess who had no plans for last night? That might have bothered me a few years ago but after the holidays that kicked my ass (in the best way possible) I guess I was looking forward to a not so quiet night home. I'm also looking forward to my usual calendar hunt, and there are so many fun ones on my radar.



Not only does this cutie from Mod Cloth reek of retro goodness it also pairs my love of corn dogs and Carmel apples (never in that order, not since the state fair of 98) and features the cutest version of the two all dolled up and proclaiming their "Careless love".



I also really love this Saffrom Universal art filled planner, from
An Artful Agenda
It features hand-drawn images and lettering on each page. I love the free form that allows you to feel like your writing in a journal that someone has already kindly illustrated for you.

Hope everyone had a safe and happy New Year! May this one be even better.

XOXO-

I am so feeling the luv...

I'm pleased as punch to announce that fabric napkins from Moxie Madness were chosen to be featured in Chow.com's Holiday Gift Guide Woot!



Making their debut are the latest design from the shop , The Switchblade Silverware Set. Which started as a joke between Andy and I. I pressed a few for us and decided we might not be the only ones with a little dinner time argo.



I also received some love from one of the sweetest girls on the east coast, my new pal Darcy Danger. She sent me not one but two of the cutest mini notebooks from the The Black Apple.





I have been coveting these lovelies for ages now and after coming clean to DD that I have a collection of journals that I'm scared to "ruin" with my serial killerish handwriting, she sent them my way and I'm SO very grateful. Not only do they have uber cool graphics, but also a sweet little poem on the back about how important it is to fill up your notebooks. Something that I'm slowly learning to do. Thanks for the lesson Darcy and happy Tuesday all!

XOXO-

So last night I had some beers

while poking around one of my Nigella cookbooks and found a recipe for hasselback
potatoes, but figured I would improvise with larger potatoes, garlic olive oil and some rosemary.



Now we use ALOT of potatoes here in the land of madness and these are becoming a fast favorite. Not only are they the perfect savory, herb infused fix but they are so dang fun to eat. For serious.



Anyhoo, I recently got my hands on some kick ass rubber stamps recently and decided to use my favorite on these tiny envelopes I acquired for thank yous to include in orders and such. I love this wide eyed cat, it totally reminds me of those old kitty wall clocks where the eyes and tail would tick back and forth. Member those?



In other news, there's a new design in the shop and a few new limited edition styles as well with more to come.

Off to make breakfast for dinner. My ABSOLUTE favorite!!

Hip-Hip Hooray...

It's sewing machine day! Well it was yesterday but this post got eaten. But even if your calendar company is like mine and made the foolish mistake not to include this holiday, it's not too late to celebrate.



Although I didn't have any sewing originally planned for today, there's no way I can sit idlely by. Oh and to share the love I'm giving away a nice fat pack of my sewing machine patches to a random commenter on Saturday the 12th, so get to stitching...and commenting! You all can thank the awesome Creative Jar who not only informed me of national sewing machine day but also featured me on her blog and put a bug in my ear to offer a giveaway. She's having two great giveaways herself in honor of this dandy of a day so make sure to check her Blog
out. Good luck lovelies!
