News and Sneek Peeks

SNEEK PEEKS!

Well first off, It is 8 days until I leave for the Pasadena Bead and Design Show! I don't get to southern California very often and I would really love to meet any of my "blogett buddies" if you are planning on attending the show.
I may even have a special vintage ephemera gift pack for whoever mentions "Plays with Paper" !
I am so in love with these darling vintage little babies ! They are definitely my new favorite things. I will be bringing some to share in Pasadena , as well as some ephemera kits and charm supplies.

Second of all I am so excited about a new artisan site coming this fall called "Lolli Shops", www.lollishops.com full of "Frou Frou", vintage,shabby, and and fun unique items from wonderful artists. I can't wait to see all the yummy goodies that will be presented . I also felt very honored that I was invited to join. Thank you Sadie Lou!
New ooak fall charms for 2008. These will be up on the site August 28. Email me at contact@staffordshiregarden.com to pre order.

And lastly, keep an eye out for the new Somerset Holidays and Celebrations due out Sept 1. This has become one of my all time favorite publications packed with Holiday goodies and eye candy galore! This year I will have an article included in this issue.
When I return home on the 18th, I will be busy uploading fall pieces to the web site. Most of these will be one of a kind , and I have been busy treasure hunting for lots of fabulous vintage baubles, trinkets and one of a kind treasures to add to them.
