Purchases
Monday, June 16, 2008
I thought I'd share my recent purchases. Both of them are AWESOME! Check these out... I'm sure you will find something you like in their stores as well...
First off... Father's Day was Sunday. My lucky husband got to spend it at Maple Valley Days while I was selling my goods. We also celebrated this awesome dad by taking him to dinner... and we bought him a new sketch book from Joshuaandjulielee.
They make some awesome journals from old books, recycled boxes, and anything else that strikes their fancy. I was so excited to receive this journal! My husband has been working on a new series of drawings - dinosaurs with two little Paleontologist (my kids) and I thought it was the perfect gift for him from his kids.
These journals are really well made. I also like that they include a few of the original pages of the book throughout the journal. Not only is it perfect for his sketches now - but it'll be a great keepsake for the kids later down the road.
My second purchase last week was this adorable little dress for Lyssie. I saw this dress and just fell in love with it... but it was a size 5. It will be 20 years before Lyssie fits into a size 5! So, I asked if it could be made in a size 2T.Bobbityboo was extremely accommodating. So much so, that she went out to buy more of the fabric to make it for me!
I'm not sure I've been more pleased with a purchase. When I purchased this dress, I figured it was a dress I probably could make myself... but just didn't have the time. Boy was I wrong! The craftsmanship put into this darling little dress is incredible! She scalloped the bottom of the dress as well as the lining on the inside! It's beautiful as each scallop is also finished with stitching. It's unbelievable. I also love the two huge yellow buttons.
I highly recommend this seller. Not only are her prices reasonable... but the quality is out of this world! I'm sure I'll be buying from her again.
I'll share photos of both my purchases when I get a chance. I haven't had a chance to put the dress on Lyssie yet (truth be told, I feel like it's just too pretty to put on my little rug rat... she's going to go jump in the mud as soon as I get it on her... I know it).
