Aprons & Peanuts

At the end of May I had the opportunity to join the Etsy SB team at a little crafting event held at Peanuts, a really cute kids boutique/consignment store on Figueroa street in downtown Santa Barbara.

So the weeks before that event, I gave myself a deadline to make at least 10 new kids aprons. It was a good test for me of how many aprons I could complete on a deadline. There were many late nights sitting at my sewing machine, but I reached my quota just in time for the event!

Unfortunately the streets were closed off for a race and it rained all day! ..So sales were slow to say the least... but I met some really great local crafters that are also selling their handmade items on Etsy.com.

On the bright side, at least my display looked great! And my hubby was there for moral support.
If there were more people there, I'm sure they would have taken advantage of the free S+R children's photo shoot I was throwing in if you bought some aprons.

We were able to do a great shoot with Rachel, Andreas, and their adorable 7 month old daughter Shalom at their home a few weeks ago...they even had family visiting from Germany. Shalom was definitely working it for the camera, giving us some cute photos. Thank you guys for letting us into your home & sharing your family with us!
