life in the igloo

New in the Igloo!

I'm back after a little hiatus-the new year sure brought a lot of busy!

Fresh vintage preview! Yay! And more to be listed this week! I have several more collectible s & p shakers in my arsenal, so keep your peepers peeled.

This Blog is Not Dead!

It's just resting.  For a wee bit.  Actually, it's about time to wake it up!

I've been uber busy with regular and wholesale orders, not to mention the whole family thing.  Emmett's birthday was last Sunday, complete with a wee get together and some homemade cupcakes.  Yum.  Meanwhile, my vintage shop is limping along, and I've vowed to list some items in the next few days! 

Yesterday, I had my first little 3-hour show for The Rehatchery.  I made enough to break even, even after buying some gifts!  Here's a photo of my humble table at the end of the night:

 

 

 

I have a lot of great ideas for improving next time, including having more ornaments on hand!  I opted to make gift tags instead of ornaments with the little bit of prep time I had, but in the end I think ornaments would have done better...not to mention I should have made a little tree.  I thought the little clip stand would look cool but it was just generally annoying to use, and it didn't jive with the natural vibe I'm going for.  

There's always a first time for everything, right?  Right. 

Moving on, this week we have some tree hunting to do, a LOT of paper to make, and some holiday fun to happen!  

Hope you and your family are enjoying this festive month, and I hope all of your crafty holiday endeavors are going awesomely!
