A Day To Play

Yesterday I worked like crazy so I could spend some time today with my Nanna. Im so happy they are coming up to the hillcountry to see me. Too bad the new store is closed on Mondays, I wont be able to show them... but we WILL still have a wonderful time.

I will slowly be making some changes I have been wanting to make for a very long time to my blog over the next month. I created a new banner yesterday! I love it. Its so nice to have a fresh look after so long.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day today! Do something nice for yourself today. Treat yourself to a latte, or a 30 minute reading break from your daily routine, or a walk with your dog. You will be thankful you did.

PEACE,

Graceful

I am so excited to share that James and I are now in two stores together! A new local shop called Graceful just had their Grand Opening last night, and I am honestly hands down in LOVE. I am so honored that both me and my husband get to carry our goods in this store. It reminds me so much of my mother, its almost a painful beauty.

I snapped a photo of James standing in front of his shirts on the rack, they looked so cute!!!! It was such a cool thing to walk into the room and see his owl shirt first thing! I cant even imagine how excited he felt. I remember that feeling the first time I saw my work all displayed in a real store!

His birdie shirt was lovingly displayed on the mannequin in the front room, and I must say it looks so stunning with a little vest! I am so impressed with all of the display and decorating in the store, it makes my heart peaceful and joyful.


My jewelry is all displayed on a gorgeous little desk when you first walk in, and it has a huge mirror hanging above, sooooo very lovely. Here are a few shots of the way they displayed it all...
The rest of the store is just candy for your eyes, if you are a lover of old and rustic things, which I am. They served mimosas which we super yummy. Just take a look at the beauty here...

I am truly inspired by this store, unlike I have been before. It feels like it brings me home to my roots, to my mother, to a calming place.

Customize Your Own Skyline Fever

We just did a seasonal price check in Skyline Fever and lowered almost everything in the shop by 10-20%, prices already reduced!!! Ill be adding new goodies throughout the day today!



Also, we would like to be able to offer you a custom option, for those of you that see a shirt you like but dont see your size or a color you like.

So....

Since we are a small company and can only afford to order shirts as we can, we will let you know each time we are about to put in an order, this way we can add your shirt to the order.

During this week only, if you message us and let us know what you would like, we will see if we have the option available for you. Sizes and colors vary upon availability. But this gives you the freedom to dream up your own Skyline Fever shirt. The only thing is you must be sure you are going to purchase the shirt before we place the order. We cant order a bunch of single shirts for no one to come through and get them. So this is the honor system here!

So go check out the shop and see what you would like in your size, or possibly another color if it is available!!! Please know that this process will take a few weeks...

AND... let us know if you would like something different, like a scarf, or a baby/toddler shirt, or a long sleeve mens shirt. If you are looking for it, just ask, we may be able to get it!!!!

*you can message us here on the blog, but please leave your email along with the message*

PEACE,

Today's Threads - PPP + Skyline Fever

Today was a good day.

James was off, so we woke up together, around 9, which is super late! We sat around and had coffee, then I sewed up two x-mas stockings for a new store. Then my iron died. Just up and died. So we decided to go to the city to get a new one, and a few other things.

We went to Target, got some pink xmas lights for the tree. Those are the only ones I will use. Im funny about xmas lights. I dont like flashing ones, or multi colored ones. Only pink. Then I found the most perfect scarf to send to Shauna to get one of these. Then we realized Target doesnt sell irons so we ran to Walmart. Goodness I hate Walmart. Sorry for all of you Walmart lovers... but I do have to pop in for thread and such all the time. So, I got a new iron! Then we were on the way home and James decided to drive over to the mall. Its the only mall Ive ever liked b/c its all outdoors. Its like a little town. We rarely go there just b/c we dont really shop at large retail stores like that, except for special occasions. But we love to walk around Anthropologie and soak in the smell and the colors and textures. I could just touch everything in that store. We have made it a tradition to pick out one xmas ornament from there each year, as a little special collection, but I didnt find one I loved... so sad. Maybe well go again before xmas.

Anyway, wow, I just told you our whole city adventure, sorry that was probably boring!

The best part of my day, besides being beside my hunny all day long, was wearing my new custom PPP bloomers with my new Skyline Fever owl shirt!!! Im in love with both and they are a match made in heaven.

Outfit Details:
PPP custom bloomers
Skyline Fever owl shirt (coming soon to the shop)

I have had alot weighing on my mind lately and Ive been back and forth about blogging about it. Sometimes these silly outfit posts are like a little escape to simpleness. Inside my soul is yearning and burning. I think I may just write some poetry to seep it out of my mind.

Im so glad everyone is loving the Holiday DIY Ornament post! Im going to share any photos you send with your ornaments, so if you make them, send me pics!

PEACE,
Laura
