About our Denim Purses and Wallets

According to a study done by research markets, blue jeans are the most widely produced piece of apparel in the United States. In 2006 (when the last study was done), we bought over 450 million pairs. In one year.

And, that’s just the United States. So, to say that we’re denim fanatics would be an understatement.

Come on, come clean. Ya know you have an old pair of jeans that you just can't seem to peel off your body, is beyond tattered at the knees, falling apart at the seams, and frayed beyond recognition. The only thing that even looks decent is the seat, right? Well, come on now, throw them away already!

We recycle old jeans, why not turn them into a denim purse or a wallet? You will want a pair of jeans that is worthy of doing this awesome project and that you can accessorize to fit your personal style. We pick out a pair of jeans that isn't torn to bits and that will hold up to the many items that you carry with you on a daily basis. Adding beads, buttons, glitter, fringe, paint, or appliques will ensure you have a one of a kind purse that everyone will be asking about. And we will be carrying these in Spring 2010!!!

About Our Pillowcase Dresses

The pillowcase dress was born during a time of thrift and frugality when nothing was thrown away and time was precious.

What do you do when one pillowcase is worn or torn and the other is good? Make dress out of it. What do you do with an empty flour sack? Make a dress out of it! Flour used to be sold in 40 and 50 pounds sacks made of about a yard of fabric. Flour companies used to make their brand of flour more attractive to housewives by making the sack out of pretty fabric!
The beauty of the construction of the dress was that you could use make the dress without cutting the bag or pillowcase to pieces. This was a great time saver. The other time saving part of this dress was that the dress can also be worn as a top, pair meaning the garment could be worn for YEARS. The great thing about dress, is that it is an all season dress, perfect for summer by it self, or with a long sleeve turtleneck worn underneath. :)

It seems that with the return of thrift and being crunched for time and money, the pillowcase dress was destined to make a return to popular children clothing. I don't think that you will ever find this type of dress in a "mart" type of clothing store. They may copy the style, but they will never give you a generous width of fabric or high quality fabric, because they want the garment to wear out and look bad in time so that you will have to buy another one.

We will start carrying pillow case dresses in our online boutique and at craft shows, in Spring 2010. We will have the following sizes:
  • size 3M- 12"
  • size 6M- 14"
  • Size 12M - 16"
  • Size 18M - 18"
  • Size 24M - 20"
  • Size 2T - 22"
  • Size 3T - 24"
  • Size 4T - 26"
  • Size 5 - 28"
  • Size 6 - 30"
  • Size 7 - 32"
  • Size 8 - 34"
(3M-4T will have matching diaper covers/bloomers) We hope you will enjoy them!

About Our Hair Accessories

Our hair accessories are unique, high quality, and extremely versatile!

Flowers: Each flower is attached to an alligator clip, which can be interchanged between different beanies, headbands, clipped onto your own hats, apparel, or purses and totes, and even worn alone in hair or in ponies and other hairstyles! The possibilities are endless! We use high quality clips and flowers. Most of our flowers will have a gem in the middle, which make them extra special!

Bows: Each bow is attached to an alligator clip, which can be interchanged between different beanies, headbands, clipped onto your own hats, apparel, or purses and totes, and even worn alone in hair or in ponies and other hairstyles! The possibilities are endless! We heat seal our ribbon to prevent fraying, and use high quality clips.

Headbands: We use several different styles of headbands in our designs. Crochet-like, stretchy headbands in 1.5 and 2.5 inch widths come in a variety of colors and types. Our elastic headbands include a stretchy elastic section at the base of the neck for a comfy fit. Our skinny headbans are best for those people who have a hard time keeping our crochet or elastic headbands on. All of our headbands are one size fits all unless otherwise noted.

Beanies: We use adorable crocheted beanie hats which come in a variety of colors and are soft and stretchy enough to fit most everyone! These come in children sizes and adult sizes. All of our beanies will include an option to purchase with a bow, or flower clip.

Monogramming: We will be able to add a monogram button to the center of any bows we sell, in any color letter, and fabric, offered in 7 different fonts. We will also be offering bottlecap buttons for the middle of bows, for people who want pictures of their favorite celebrities and/or hobbies in the middle of their bows!

Custom orders welcome! we are looking to also carry feather clips and headbands :)
