Craftacular was great!

Had a great time at the Spring Fling Craftacular yesterday. Naomi of Glitter Workshop put on a fabulous show. I sold a bunch of adorable skirts for girls and an assortment of handbags. Big thanks to all the shoppers and other vendors that were also shoppers!

Met lots of new and super nice peeps. Sent skirts off to Oshkosh to be showcased at Dainty Daisies, owned by Michelle. (http://www.daintydaisies.com) I'll add her link - and a couple others to my sidebar.

Hope the rain this weekend leads to more flowers blooming next week!

Cheers :)

Spring Fling Craftacular in ONE WEEK!!

Yes, you see that correctly...The Painted Daisy is proud to be a sponsor of this very cool indie craft even!

Also, check out one of the other sponsors: Dainty Daisies...they will be the next fabulous shop to carry The Painted Daisy products. http://www.daintydaisies.com/

Lovely Lunch Sacks turned out.....well.....Lovely!

I'm so pleased with how these special-order lunch sacks turned out! Much bigger than the prototype, ha ha! Lined in PUL (a washable, coated fabric that is water resistant and flexible) with a velcro top closure and sassy little handle...it's more like carrying a little purse than a lunch sack!

My daughter is begging for one and I tried to bribe my son to carry one (not that I thought he would, but it was fun to try, he he) and I want one too! Maybe this will have to be come a regular Painted Daisy item in the future?

Lovely link to share :)

Anthology has a wonderful article about their new spring-y merchandise and feature another picture of my little skirts in their front window display!

Lovely store, lovely owners, lovely new items to inspire spring.

Check it out! Better yet, head downtown Madison to see the wonderfully whimsical store in person!
