hippie chic {+ some shop news}

last night aaron and elle were playing in her room and got her purse basket out. a while back i cleaned out her chest of drawers and her cubby in her closet and condensed things. she had several pairs of sunglasses from last summer that i put in her cubby basket that has her purses. well...she found a pair last night and decided that they are pretty cool and really hasn't wanted to take them off. she wore them over to my parents' house this morning and when she finally did decide to take them off there were little red indentions on her nose. she's so funny these days. definitely keeping me on my toes.

looking so hippie chic with the cross-body bag. she also had on a necklace and bracelets. i think since she dressed up with landry on tuesday, she's been really into it!

on wednesday my friend, megan, featured elle + ollie handmades on her blog. and i'm so thankful to her for doing so. since wednesday i've made numerous sales, had several inquiries and my etsy shop favorers have seriously like tripled. it was so sweet of megan to do that. thankful to have made such great friends through the blogosphere and twittersphere. a couple very sweet gals on twitter have purchased from me and i'm so grateful. loving the support elle + ollie's been getting. i really want this to be a success. makes me giddy thinking that people love and enjoy what i put my time and heart into.

my sil asked me to make her daughter (my niece) a dress, so i decided that whatever i made for her i would name after her and sale in the shop. the taylor onesie dress has become a fast fav. its amy butler fabric and i just know that's whats selling it. so darling! i'll be busy making taylor onesie dresses this week and next!

i sold both my ready-to-ship listings as well. and even had an inquiry about it but unfortunately the sweet green floral is no longer available. i'm so sad, but it does come in a pretty burgundy color that i'm going to snatch up and make for the shop. its adorable and perfect for spring/summer.

  1. oh gosh girl, you KNOW i will be getting this little baby in my womb a little elle + ollie something something for when it's born!

    also...I'm so glad to read this! For some reason I thought maybe tons of popularity and hits for your shop would be more stressful and too much work for you, but it sounds like the opposite! That's awesome! I will SPREAD THE WORD!!
