Guess 2010 is gone and here it is Ground Hog Day. Well my first resolution has gone astray I told myself I would write often on here this year.
The spring season for Craft shows is fast approaching. We do our first one at the Little Green Bean Boutique, then the Spring Chica Boutiqua Zionsville Town Hall April 16
We have been using our down time rethinking what the shop Otila Rae Originals should be selling. I think we have a few thoughts that will be winners this summer. Our first test will be Friday and Saturday when we do the Art show at the Little Green Bean Boutique. We will have pants with ruffles for the little girls. Some really nice sun dresses with bloomers for the infants. We have made some terrific card cases just the size to carry business cards or your ID and a credit card, how about giving one as a gift with a gift card included. Last summer everyone was asking for some plastic bag holders so we now have some very nice terry cloth ones. Of course we will have the ever popular Potato Bags, the all-cotton bags that go in the Microwave for Potatoes and Corn. We have worked on making Aprons for everyone in the family the Christmas print was real popular last fall. Now we have new prints of cupcakes and hearts and a garden theme for the 5 to 8 year olds and their American Girl Dolls. A New one for the ladies that I think came out real well it is made of black twill with a lining and trim of cherries. Of course our best seller on Etsy has been the little girl’s pantaloons they come in both ecru and white with lace trim so we will have them with us at the shows this summer also. Still working on something for little boys we made casual pants for them last summer but they did not sell very well I liked them but then I do not have a little boy. Come by the Arts Markets or visit us on Etsy that’s at www.otilarae.etsy.com to see where we will be check www.pixieplayground.com
and go to the calendar or e-mail us at otilarae@gmail.com
We also have a new member of our family a little white puppy named Snow. She is a fun little thing she thinks her feet do not fit on the floor and she should be carried all the time. Good thing she is tiny. She has not liked the cold and the snow so she like the rest of us is ready for tulips and daffodils.
