To List or Not to List, That is My Question.

I can't quite decide if I want to list this dress in my shop or not. It is way different then what I usually make and is more time consuming, but it is also gorgeous!!!

I originally made this dress for a giveaway I joined because I wanted to make something different and stand out. It was a challenge at first, but I love the results. Today I completed the dress for the winner from the giveaway (poor women has been waiting since November, but I was swamped with Christmas!! I do feel awful!)

I thought it would make a beautiful flower girl dress.

It is made from the amazing Figgy's Pattern Scirocco Dress if you would like to make one of your own.

My favourite feature, the twisted back.

These AMAZING photos were taken by the talented Forty Toes Photography and modelled by her gorgeous daughter.

Something Warm and Cozy

These warm and cozy hoodies are coming to my shop. They are completely lined with fleece and made from upcycled thrifted sweatshirts. A zip front for easy on and off with front pockets for storing all their treasures.  They will be custom order only, and as always, one of a kind.

My boys wear theirs everyday, and say they feel like wearing a blanket, or a hug.

The Elephant is up for grabs and can be found here: Elephant Hoodie

Something Really Exciting is About to Happen...

And it involves these two pairs of moccasins. I packaged them up and mailed them somewhere special last week.

I am SO excited to share more soon!!

Adult Moccasin Pre Sale

So I love these moccasins! I can't stop making them and have quite the collection!

I have ordered two sheets of rubber soling for the moccasins, and I thought it would be fun to have a special pre-sale offer while we wait for the soles to arrive. That way I can make up the moccasins while I wait for the soles to be delivered and then attach the soles to the moccasins and send them off to be enjoyed by other lovely people, AND offer the moccasins at a great price! Deep breath!

These will be available for the special pre-sale price of $95 on the first 6 pairs ordered. After that the moccasins will be available for $120. So if you are looking for a great pair of handmade leather moccasins, at a great price, quickly head over to my shop and order a pair!

Where has the time gone?!

Wow! I didn't realize how long it had been since my last post! So what have I been up to? Lots. That's the best I can do to sum up the last 10 months. Lots!

Life with three growing boys is busy, it is now summer and we are spending lots of time outdoors in nature, at the beach, riding bikes etc…

I have begun a new craft that I have been wanting to learn for FOREVER and I am so excited to share it with you.

Moccasins!!!

This purple pair (that looks blue in the photos) I made from a leather jacket, because I am all about upcycling/recycling

Just after I decided to start making moccasins, a friend of mine, who is moving across the country, decided to give me two HUGE bags of leather!! 

Then a couple of days ago my sister in law found some olive green leather pants at a garage sale and picked them up for me. It's in the stars! I am meant to make moccasins. Also, I really love making them. I love that I can work on them anywhere. The black pair I made while I was watching my kids play at the park. 

I am just searching for soles, and then I will have these lovely mocc's available in my shop as made to order.

Hope all of you are enjoying your summer! Best of wishes to you :)
