I'm cleaning out the studio and in the process of super organizing and purging of crafty bits and old products. I have found some gems though that I wanted to post in my etsy shop. I have this super cute collection of paintings that I've been holding on to all year and then lost and forgot about. They are going to be available on etsy over this month and I'll try and list a few every day. I got a good selection of the paintings on there today. Each one is one of a kind and hand drawn/painted. I'm selling a few at a super low price too because I want to pass these on and give them a good home.
Also I am proud to announce that I am finally posting hats this year! I am going through my stock and working on new designs and my etsy shop and lolly-tots website will be filled with new hat goodness. This year forward I will only be posting hats that I have finished and ready to ship. I got bogged down last year with requests for sewing and I simply can not keep up or manage to sew enough. I hope this opens my time up for more custom jobs and business management time. This way you are guaranteed a hat within a couple days and I will not get stressed out with all my sewing orders!
Check out the first one of the year! Super cute black kitty hat with lime green lining. I love this combo so much I might make it a standard. Available in my etsy shop and website.
TODAY IS MY ETSY ANNIVERSARY! 4 years running! That means 4 years of trial and error. 4 years of working towards my dream. 4 years of meeting new etsy friends and growing in the community. WOW Etsy has come so far right? What an amazing site.. it launched me that's for sure.
That is all my spamyness for today!
I will update you all soon on the fashion show plans and my new designs.
I also need to take more studio shots to show you my workspace. I got it super organized now!
This blog is seriously lacking in tutorials and fashion goodness! I will fix that in the coming months. There is going to be so much to share too! I am super excited about this year and sharing it with all of you. :)

♥ I had to take several weeks off to build inventory in my shop as well so that I won't hate custom orders so much! It got very stressful right before Christmas and I started to really hate sewing customs. I posted a few days ago that I'll be limiting customs so that it didn't happen again. Glad to know I wasn't the only who felt pressured when the orders started rolling in!
It's hard being a handmade artist. You don't realize how limited your time really is. It's hard enough to work the orders you are already trying to do and then fit in more work on top of it. It takes a while to be realistic about your time. I gotta be honest.. I just can't sew that many hours!
