Bees, Bees and more Bees

We took a trip to Indiana this weekend. We were welcomed by a huge bee hive hanging over the shed. Bees were flying everywhere. Too bad they weren't the kind to make yummy honey. In case you haven't had your fill of bees yet. Here is a new messenger bag:





Always have to include the crazy antics of my Lucy. She decided the back of a price tag makes a great art canvas.

Apples are not just for Teachers!

I just spent 3 gorgeous days at the Gold Coast Art Fair. The weather was perfect and the streets were packed. A great way to finish my summer shows. Now I get to relax for a week before diving into all my custom orders. A couple comments from this weekend about the new apple fabric bags included "That would be a great teacher bag," and "What a cute teacher gift." All I have to say is apples are not just for teachers. A couple of my teacher friends said, "I better not get an apple bag as a gift." I love apple picking, but I don't know if apple picking works for Daisy Bags. I may just have to keep that fabric for the inside of the bags.

Lucy just got back from a week at Grandma and Grandpa's. I wonder how long it will take her to stop calling me "Grammie." First day back and she is already using fabric as a clothesline for my ribbon scraps.

Daisy Bags has gone Green!

After a busy weekend with Art at the Glen, I came up with a new idea. An eco-friendly shopping bag. Use this when you go to art fairs or shopping at the mall. Save the environment by using your DB green bag instead of all the plastic and paper bags you get at each store, vendor or artist.



The bag measures 13"w x 14"h x 7"d and will easily fit 2 boxes of shoes or a box of shoes and 3-4 pairs of pants. Folds down to fit into the 9"x6" storage wristlet. Reversible. Priced at $30.



We celebrated Cole's First Birthday on Sunday. Here is a great photo of him after his cake smashing. Good thing Grandma was there to clean him up!
