Hello, hello, hello....

It's been a week since my last post... in my defense, I have been pretty busy! This past week must have been "You ship, right?" week. I have never had so many people stop by the cart and ask for me to ship them items! I'm not complaining... I loved it. I sold stuff without depleting inventory from the cart! The best of both worlds.... So this past week I was sewing my little heart out... and making many trips to the Post Office. Inbetween sewing and shipping I managed to make a few new items for the cart. Washcloths in Cowboy print (set of 3), Minky washcloths in pink and yellow (set of 3), minky washcloths in white and blue (set of 3), and a super cute pink and chocolate brown lovey...... and I don't have pictures of any of it! I made them at night, and I like to photograph during the day (I find the best time is between 2 and 3pm). I could have waited and photographed the next day, but i was anxious to get them on the cart. I guess I'll just have to make more, and remember to take pictures....

I did, however, manage to list the cowboy blanket in "baby" size. The blanket was only available in "toddler" size previously.

This weekend is the Jazz Fest, in New Orleans.... Good food, good music, good times with friends.... that is, if I wasn't stuck working the cart. For those of you who are fortunate enough to make it, please eat a piece of crawfish bread for me.... and wash it down with strawberry lemonade!

Giveaway!

I have been asked to participate in a giveaway on the blogs Etsy It Up and The Shopping Mama!

These two blogs have teamed up to host a bag themed giveaway called "It's in the bag"! The gieaway will feature bags (baby bags and diaper bags) and bag stuffers.... like my blankets! I am giving away the "Stripes Baby Blanket".

Life at the cart....

As I have mentioned in previous posts, I have a cart in the Riverwalk Mall. It's on the third floor, about three stores down from "The Fudgery". The Fudgery is the reason for this post....

The Fudgery is a store that, as the name suggests, makes and sells fudge. Not only do they make an sell fudge.... they also sing about it. Yes, folks.... sing... loudly. They take popular songs and change the lyrics to make them about fudge. For exmple..
Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovey" is now "Isn't Fudge Lovely"....
Tina Turner's " What's Love Got to Do with It" is now "What's Fudge Got to Do with It"....
Tina and Ike's "Rolling on the River"..... Rolling at the Fudgery".....
Queen's "We are the Champions"..... "We've Got Free Samples".....
The Temptation's "My Girl".... "My Fudge"

The list goes on and on.....
I like to have impromptu concerts for my friends... so they can feel at least a smidgen of the pain I feel when working the cart... It's not all that bad atually. I often find myslf singing along with the folks that work around me. Maybe I should start singing about baby blankets.....?

Aaaahhhh.... Life at the cart....

Shop update!!!

I have just added two super cute washcloth sets to the shops (Etsy and the cart)...

Both of the sets have a cotton front with an adorable print and terry cloth backing. They are so cute, it makes you just want to wipe something!! There's a version for girls and one for boys....

It's been a long time....

...since my last post.

I had a very relaxing Easter weekend. Most of my family was out of town, so my little cousin and I sent a glorious day bonding at the grocery store. I recommend this to anyone who despises going to the grocery store as much as I do. She loaded and unloaded the cart.... and put the groceries up once I got home!!!!! Not to mention she was wonderful company whilst shopping.

Other than going to the grocery store, I spent the rest of my time working orders that need to be shipped, restocking the cart and coming up with new product ideas. New ideas should be completed and photographed soon.

I am "planning" a shop update for Thursday. I'll keep you posted.
