trying to get it together

some oldies but goodies

i still think this is my favorite color to work with. this moss green color was the first i used for the leaves 6 years ago. wow. 6 years! i cant believe it sometimes..
i have some new holiday special things in the works too

im not ready to tell you what they are.. just incase i get too busy to actually finish my new projects. this way i wont feel as though i failed.
i spent a large portion of this week trying to get organized before the holiday shopping season goes full force.
this involved pulling inventory from the makery and secret stashes to make sure i have all bases covered in my etsy shop before filling other shops and such.

i love organizing things but i am not really great about keeping them in order after the fact. i need a new system. i think it involves more shelving.

new in shops!

i just packed up some things earlier this week and shipped them off to two great shops.

renegade handmade in chicago


and wholly craft in columbus, ohio


as per usual, you can always find dearest inez goodies at the makery in louisville, kentucky and in my etsy shop online

pack it up

i spent a large portion of today sorting and packaging up some dearest inez goodies for other shops. ive been a little distracted and busy lately, so this is a little overdue.
it always takes me a little longer than it should to just pack a little box. im really not doing anything fancy or special. im just especially slow.
i do love these new colors.. and i need to get to making asap or my shop is going to be left with little for the holiday shopping season.

new blog!

i decided to move the dearest inez site over to a blogger account. its easier to keep up with because of the makery's blog and such... so... welcome to the new dearest inez blog!
