Hi everyone! Just wanted to show you another treasury we were featured in. Isn't it pretty? It was made by Tirabaralla. They have some gorgeous stuff! Like these upcycled gift wrap bags. Have you ever seen anything so clever, useful and beautiful at the same time?!

Thanks Tirabaralla!

All of my jewelry is on sale. Every bracelet is marked down to $10! Plus I'm offering free shipping. Hurry! The sale ends on December 1st.


And don't miss out on the Wolly Pop sale! These hardly EVER go on sale. These are perfect for stocking stuffers. Every age loves them from 3 year old girls to 50 something guys! Seriously.

If you are looking for a unique gift for someone who has everything I can guarantee they wont have one of these.

She also does custom ones! Favorite colors are green and pink? Orange and blue? Want a world traveling Wolly Pop or a Wolly Pop who hangs out at the library or maybe one to match your car? She can do it.

Alec is back!

Wearing his 70's shades and looking like he's been skiing all day.
Duuuude...

This is Alec. Known to his friends as "Alec the Awesome". He knows he's cool stuff. He likes listening to jazz records, watching 70's ski videos and is never without his retro shades. He is a bird of few words but is a thinker of profound thoughts. He calls his mother regularly.

You can find him HERE in our shop. =]

Much love,
Marguerite

A Rainy Day


Hello everyone. =]
I just thought I'd let you all know what's going on at Pretty Wit.
We were at the Bend Indoor Market yesterday and today and a good thing it was indoors too 'cause it was pouring down rain all day! *sigh* It was wonderful... I love the rain! Makes me want to sing "Rain drops keep fallin' on my head..." Ok, that's beside the point...

We're working on getting some more things in the shop right now.... I know Gen's working on some fabulous fingerless gloves and I (your news person, Marguerite) am working on some Wolly Pop's and other fun stocking stuffer thingamagigs and Aimee is... well, you never can tell with Aimee.... But I think she's making some crocheted goodies. =]
So stay tuned for some fun (and warm) things for Autumn (and early Christmas too)!

Also... Now is a good time for suggestions. =] What would YOU like to see in our shop? And for that matter, on our blog too. We love questions, comments and suggestions. =]

And now for your random enjoyment... Some pictures from one of our all time favorite movies!
Mary Poppins

Have a

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

Day!

Hello Friends

It's been a while I know... But (hopefully) with good reason.
Last weekend and this weekend we set up our shop at
The Bend Indoor Market.
We have been quite busy!


Please come check it out if you live in the area! Otherwise, here are some pictures of our trinkets and doodads. =]




Aimee's been hard at work making all these crocheted jewelry pieces!




Our sister and her husband are the ones who make the barbed wire stars and painted furniture and some of the aprons. They also made these business cards (for them)-

And these ones for us! Aren't they awesome?!
Our Mom makes these lovely wreaths!

And here are some new Wolly's I've been working on!

This is Wadsworth.


Gen's been busy making these super cute and stylish fingerless mittens! And of course lots of beautiful jewelry and aprons!

So, in case you've been wondering where we and all our stuff has been, now you know. =]
I'm working on more Wolly Pops to put in the shop as well as some ideas for something new!
As it happens, the market is going on today until 4:00pm (and a giveaway we're doing at the market too!) so if you're quick you can still make it! Here is the website for directions, http://www.bendindoormarkets.com/

We will be there next weekend as well, so please come and see us!
There's also lots of other cool stuff there. Including handmade things, antique and vintage finds, food and fresh produce! It'll be happening every weekend too!
So, anyway, I hope everyone is well and happy! I'm off to take a walk in the sunshine!

"Pretty in Pink"
The Professor was honored to be in the first one... He loves it when all eyes are on him. He's kind of stuck up that way...and Dhelia was so delighted to be in the other, surrounded by pretty, pink, girly things!And we were delighted as well that these earings (made fabulously by Aimee) were also featured! Wahoo!!

Here are some of my favorite things in her shop...
(The above was a custom order she made and the first thing I saw in her shop. I fell in love instantly when I saw this. Isn't it gorgeous?!)
(This dress (above) was a custom order as well. Beautiful!)

(This dress (below) was also a custom order that she made from the photo below it.)
