sweetiPod

To any of you who may frequent my blog, I do apologize for my HUGE gap between posts. I've been so busy lately that I only seem to get time to do the essentials online now. In any case, I'm still alive, incase you're wondering. :)

I'm happy announce the opening of my second shop - sweetiPod Stationery. I'm slowly adding new items, so please stop by, and give something a try! You'll find some super cute Mini Envelopes, Handmade books, and other stuff to come! And all requests are welcome. :)

If two's company...

Recently I've been getting some custom requests for sets of 3 - friends, workmates, nieces, sisters, daughters, or maybe you need 3? Whatever the reason, if you're needing more than one girly gift this Christmas, then consider a set of cosmetic pouches - customised in colour, pattern, embroidery, and style.



At a discounted price when you buy a set, you're getting a great deal! And if you're wanting a different amount, just convo me! :) Stop by my Etsy shop and check it out!

Christmas is upon us...

I was told the other day that it's bad luck to set up your tree before Dec 1 ... that never seemed to stop all the shop owners however! It seems, come Oct, and everyone's in the Christmas rush!

Well, I've never been a Christmasy person, but entering a large family you tend to come to appreciate it a little more. A time for giving, loving, and being more concerned to find that special present for someone rather than what you'll get in return. But then, there's always a catch... the cost!

I decided to start my Christmas shopping now, rather than a week before Christmas like last year. And where better to start shopping than etsy? This is where I started...

ToonDesign is an amazing shop I found on my search for affordable clutches and wallets. I honestly don't feel it justified to spend $50+ on a clutch! I'm sorry, it's just not practical. But stop by ToonDesign's shop, and you'll be pleasantly surprised. I was able to snatch up some adorable mini-clutches for only $7 each! And $12 for the regular size. And if you're quick, you'll catch her Buy 3, get 1 free sale!! I didn't even realise until she told me I got a 4th for free - you should have seen my excitement! lol.

So excited!!!

Ever have those really horrible days where you just want everyone to leave you alone, and you feel miserable? Ok, well, today was NOT one of those days! :P

I received a lovely little package in the mail today ... I was THRILLED when I opened it!! My new charms from KookieDaDa, beautifully packaged - so professional and adorable, I hardly wanted to open it!

My two little gems were Marshmallow Elle and Koodles, the funny little red bear! I cannot even begin to describe the cuteness ... after much difficulty, I managed to get Elle on my phone. Love it!






Stop by KookieDaDa's shop, and find something adorable for yourself or a friend - you'll be well rewarded! :)

Pretty little bows ... aww

v Awww .... isn't it cute?? v




Originally I designed this for a custom order, but decided on another design - so I thought I'd share with ya'll. :) It's simple, eligant, light, and totally different to my normal designs.

Outer fabric is made of baby blue cotton drill, lined with pale yellow cheesecloth (very delicate little bag!!), and accented with a yellow tule bow. :)





If you're interested in this little gem, or something similar, please stop by my shop! :)
