Tuesdays Treasures

Today's Treasure is one of my own. It is the new City Girl Bag that I made for myself recently.
This bag is so great, I carry a great little wristlet that contains my mini-wallet and all my other little necessities. I just toss my wristlet into my Mommy Bag and I am off. If I don't need, or want, to carry my entire Mommy Bag in somewhere I just grab my wristlet and go. Recently I have had less need to carry my Mommy Bag on a daily basis seeing as my son Elijah is now 6 years old so I decided to come up with another bag design that might give me a little more room but not be as big as the Mommy Bag but still hold my wristlet.
The City Girl Bag does just that, it is chic and fashionable and holds everything I need on most days.
The City Girl bag sits just under your arm when on your shoulder, it features an interior zippered pocket for anything you might want to keep out of 'plain' sight. It has a flap with a magnetic snap closure and I added a fun little detail around the edge of the flap for extra flair!!
Stay tuned for more new stuff...........

Monday Madness

Well another Monday has rolled around and things are super crazy as usual around here. I am in the process of reorganizing my online stores and there is so much to do. I want to offer a variety of designs to my wonderful customers so I have been working hard lately to come up with lots of fabulous designs and even redesigning some of my usual products. For example, I have a new design for the Crayon Wallet. It now is designed in such a way that the crayons will not be able to fall out and more like an actual wallet.
It is still easy to carry inside your Mommy Bag for instant entertainment and the flap with the hook and loop tape (aka velcro) is super easy for the kiddos to open and close themselves. This would even be great for your child to put in his/her backpack and carry to school!
As a homeschool Mom, this crayon wallet is an excellent tool for my son to practice his writing skills just about anywhere, he loves to practice writing his name and so many other new words! They are also perfect for restaurants, instead of using the same old 3 crayons that the restaurants offer they have their very own crayons and a notepad. There are more color options as well with a crayon wallet. These are THEIR crayons and not ones that every other kid that has come through have used. No 'germs' to be concerned with, you never know where those restaurant crayons have been!
These crayon wallets are a must have for anyone with a child in their life so get yours today! Stay tuned for more upcoming new designs.

Fun Friday Favorites

Today's Fun Friday Favorites has a theme, Cameras! I love to take pictures and taking pictures for my work is always a challenge. I am always looking to improve my pictures and this morning I had cameras on my mind so~Enjoy!!

Handmade Felt Camera Case by Plushism
Rivet Series The Camera by TimothyAdamDesigns
Wooden Stamps by RetroNaNa
Plastic Toy Camera Charms by AcuteAlliteration
And last but not least is my own Zippered Wristlet by AprilsOriginals, these are great! I use a layer of fleece interfacing on them so you could easily use one to carry your camera in. Of course, there is some padding but it will not protect against damage to your camera if you drop or hit it on something. You must still be very cautious, but the fleece certainly provides more padding than your average wristlet!
