Sneak a peek at Spring!!

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

Hey Everybody, here’s a sneak peek at just some of the fun new things we’ll be making for Spring…… Have a look and let us know which one you love the most:

Our new FRIDAY BAG– a roomy shoulder bag with vintage fabric detail and snap closure, this will take you to work in style and then out on the town. There are more colours too, and these bags should be available on our online shop really soon. These bags hold a lot of stuff: clutch wallet, water bottle, umbrella and sunglasses (it’s Vancouver, after all!) and keeps your cell and keys close at hand in the big back pocket, which has a snap closure as well. Price: $95.00 Canadian

May we introduce you to our latest addition to our wallet line, FLAT WALLET holds only what you need close at hand or in your back pocket. Measuring just slightly larger than the credit cards it holds, our Flat Wallet has a zippered pocket and two card slots, so you can organize accordingly. You can also use this one inside of our clutch wallet or d-ring to really keep things sorted!! Price: $15.00

(PSSST— we’ve shot this photo with one of our Nauga-doilies, from our upcoming Housewares collection, but more on that later!!)

This is our WOODLAND PRINT, shown on our Medium Vinyl Tote. Super cute and springy, it reminds me of 60’s childrens wallpaper.

Our SEEDLING applique reminds us to water the plants, which I never remember to do!!

Our latest take on trees, the CLOUD TREE, shown here in a darker combo of grape and teal on a black Medium tote. I’m really enjoying these larger appliques this season, I hope you do too!!

carnations.jpg
CARNATIONS!! These flowers will last way longer than the real thing, and are so much more appealing than the plastic option out there!

vases.jpg

A collection of VASES…… I love the lookof these grouped together, in a study of shape and colour. Plus I always think that ceramics, like flowers, are better by the bunch!

For everybody who just loves colour, our SPECTRUM applique is a cheerful combination of simple forms and bright happy colours.

branch-print.jpg

Last but certainly not least is our BRANCH PRINT, a playful group of sticks and leaves, as you can see.

Alright, that’s it for now……. if you’ve fallen in love with anything, send us an email and we’ll do our best to set you up with your heart’s desire. Hopefully we’ll have some of this lovely new stuff in our online shop really soon, and we’ll get back to you all soon about the housewares collection.

Bye for now!! XO Janna

Today it’s really nice out here in Vancouver…. it’s bright and sunny and has me thinking of spring.

It could also be that we have been working hard lately to get our Spring 2008 collection put together and ready for the shops……. New images, new wallet, new bags, new stuff!! Hopefully I’ll be able to post something for everybody this weekend, but for now enjoy the sunlight and think of spring!!  XO Janna
