The Return of the Flower Fingerless Gloves

I've always loved fingerless gloves and the cozy dexterity they provide. We recently received a shipment of the wildly popular versions, pictured above. Made by Look at Me Designs, each pair is crafted from repurposed sweaters. Each is unique in color and texture.

$30 pair. Also pictured, the back of a Clara wristlet, $48 each.

Number Nine

Otis the shop pug turned nine in early February so we took him on a day of adventure. First we hiked in a local park.


His age may qualify him for AARP membership, but he's pretty sporty and spry.

Tempting Trims

Recently the owner of a huge lot of vintage sewing trims contacted me. She wanted to sell her goods because she was moving to Florida to be closer to her granddaughter. I went through a carload of amazing finds and settled on those that will work best on handbags and Laura Bee Designs products.

Here's the first teaser picture. I posted this image on Facebook last week, and several customers came in over the weekend to design with these very ribbons. It's a score for all of us! I look forward to unveiling new vintage ribbon options each week as I hand wash and air dry my haul.
