v-day

happy belated valentine's day! 

wes and I went out for brunch yesterday because he works later in the day and doesn't get home til 10:30 pm! boo! but yay for brunch! we went to my favorite veggie restaurant, the chicago diner ! we ordered a special appetizer, the potato skins. they were really yummy! I had a hard time deciding between brunch or a sandwich, but I finally went with buddha's karma burger. I had it before back when it was a special. it's made out of curried tofu and sweet potato and comes with a "mango-pineapple Karmic Realignment sauce." I like to order it with avocado because I am obsessed with it. I should get an avocado tattoo! I also had a chocolate strawberry soy shake. yummy!

wes is getting really good at shopping in my etsy faves and picked out this super cute button necklace from blockparty press for me. this is me wearing it!

I look like a dorkus. also, I love the instagram app!

I gave wes this really cool wallet made out of vintage deadstock vinyl that was used to upholster volkswagens in the 70s and 80s. super neat!

new wallets!

I'm so excited about this new wallet style! This is my second attempt and I'm pretty happy with it. This particular wallet I made for myself, so I figured it would be good practice. I originally thought I would be using these heavy duty snaps, but I'm worried they will tear the fabric eventually. Especially if I'm just using a cotton on the outside. I thought about velcro, but decided magnetic snaps would work best! I won't get my order of snaps for a couple of weeks, so look for these wallets in my shop in the next few weeks. These things hold EVERYTHING! So cool! You can check out my flickr to see the larger pictures!

new fabric!

I'll admit, I'm a fabric-a-holic! I love cute fabric! I just wanted to show off some new fabrics coming soon to the shop. I already have card wallets made and I'm working on pouches this weekend. Hopefully, my new wallet pattern will be ready to stock in the shop next week. I'm really excited about it. I hope you like!
