The Update - Etsy that is...

So I am trying to finally update my Etsy! Oh, my! I am a instant gratification type, so the waiting for uploads aren't always my favorite thing to do...

I took an afternoon and camped out on my front porch with a Coke Zero, my camera and my "button box"! I was so thankful for the nice weather. I can hardly remember the last time I sat in the sun. It was wonderful!
So here are a few of the new additions to my Etsy, more to come!

Do you have an Etsy? What do you do while you update your store? Any tips or tricks to share?

Show Kick-Off

The Lollipop Guild had our first event of 2010, the Medina Baby Fair. We had a blast as always! We started working on our booth a few weeks ago... For a first try, we are right on track!


The swirl blankets, and the lovely blankets with the crochet edges are from Mary at Quite Contrary Goods!
And all of the wonderful bibs were made by Andi! (they are all reversible, such cute prints too!)

These cute plushies were made by Devona at Templeton Goods!

These cute little bear hats were made by Mary, and the little
 basket of suede bottom shoes were from Devona!

These were my little flower pretties! I had headbands or beanie hats to choose from!
I will be adding them to my Etsy tomorrow!

These are just a few of the super cute outfits that Devona makes from men's dress shirts!
See more at her Etsy store! Boys romper are going to be added this spring...
Don't you love that blanket too? It makes me wish I had a baby to wrap up!
 Mary makes such great blankets!

We have a bunch of these items still available for purchase,
so if you see something you like just email us!
With life as crazy as it is for us "Lollies" we don't always get to update our Etsy shops...
 We are all crafty Moms!

If you have any questions, or need help getting in touch,
just leave a comment and I will be sure to get back to you!

Boutique Baby

Tomorrow is the Medina Baby Fair! It is our first event as the Lollipop Guild! I am teaming up with my BCF's (best crafty friends)- Andi (super awesome tote bags), Devona (darling baby shoes and lovies), and Mary (crochet baby blankets and hats)! See our Lolli landing page for more info about them!

Since my items are not really "baby" items, I have reverted back to my first craft that I sold... hair pretties! I have made over 30 flower clips to be put on either hats or headbands! The babies look SO CUTE in them!

This is Averie! I work with her Dad, Wally Lash. I offered up a hat for a snapshot! Isn't she is darling!

So if you are in the area, stop in and see us! I will also offer these hats in my Etsy starting next week!

Oh, Baby!

I was talking to a good friend of mine, Margaret, one day at knitting... " I am looking for a newborn to photograph..." and then my sister in law, Laurie just was over with our brand new, super cute nephew, Scotty... So the smart person I am, I connected the two and thought, this would be perfect... and it was! look here...
Last Saturday Margaret made her way over to their house and had a fun session! You can see her website with other examples of her work at JaNicki Photography She does all types of photography (family, weddings, animals...) and is so pleasant and professional!

Now with all that said, I have the baby itch for sure!! I think that I have the hubby on board for baby Doll #2 in 2011! If I have my way I will be sporting a baby bump by fall! There are so many preggos around me, it seems like a good time to jump on the band wagon! So anyhow, if you see my husband, Trevor around town, be sure to drop a hint... or two...
