Good afternoon, friends!

Save the date for this great holiday shopping opportunity. This show is a new one for me and I’m looking forward to this!

I agree with Jule’s words here. I’ve been so proud to be a part of Clover Market the last couple seasons, and I have never been involved with an organization that cares so much for the participating artistļæ¼s. Thank you to them, and to all of you supporting small businesses.

Thank you to Clover Market and others who have done so much to support artisans. In a time when shows are being cancelled, remember that not only are artisans impacted, but show organizers and community organizations are feeling it too. These organizations bring the people to our towns to the benefit of other shops and restaurants during the events. It takes both for a successful event!

Well, dang it anyways. Today was supposed to be the first day of my Spring art show season. That it is such a beautiful day just makes it more torture. It’s always such a joy to meet my customers, especially after we’ve all come out of our winter hibernation. Thanks, damndemic.

So for an update:
There have been lots of facemasks flying out of the sewing studio in the last weeks, but that gig is closing down as I look toward bringing some beautiful goods into this sad world right now. I’ve got some really exciting ideas brewing! I know I’ve been quiet lately, but look for a Facebook sale before Mother’s Day and updates to the website in the weeks to come.

Stay safe friends! I miss you!

Another post and today’s prompt is reducing waste. I have become much more mindful about this - and here are some of the ways I try to reduce and reuse:
- I end up with a ton of these tubes! I take them to my local fabric store to be used again and again.
- making the switch from plastic to recycled paper shopping bags
- I am always looking for vintage fabrics that can be used in handbag making. I’ve made bags from old draperies, clothing, coffee bean bags, etc.
- very little fabric goes to waste! I use a lot of small remnants, end cuts, and small pieces of fabric. After cutting out the patterns for the larger bags the remaining yardage is used for smaller and smaller bags, pockets, etc, till I’ve used it all. I can usually get the waste down to what I can fit in my hand.
-much of the hardware I order comes wrapped in plastic and it drives me crazy! Whatever I can’t reuse goes straight to recycle
- i use all synthetic materials and don’t use leather. Cork is a very sustainable material and I have been using it quite a bit.

These are just some of the ways I have adjusted my mindset! Always looking for new ways to do better.

Happy Holidays, friends!

An update for you: I am taking a break from my Holiday Open House this year, but I will be participating in two marvelous events this weekend. These are my final two events of a very busy year. I am thrilled to have my bags at these two gorgeous historic mansions on Dec 7 and 8 -

The Centre Furnace Mansion in State College is holding its annual Stocking Stuffer event and I have a lovely selection of bags and clutches all set up and ready to go.

The Bush House Estate in Muncy will be hosting their Holiday Boutique on Saturday and Sunday as well. Come say hello to myself and the other artisans!

Both events offer superb shopping opportunities!
