Handmade in Texas Showcase

You love handmade, and what's not to love about Texas, right? (let's not get started on the heat..... many other things to love about the Lone Star State!)

Check out this site - Handmade in Texas - Showcasing handmade arts & crafts from all over the great state of Texas.

I've just linked up my Retro Hippie Chic Steering Wheel Cover to this site.  This cover is so cool because it is made from some awesome olive green and gold 70's bark clothe and handmade crochet trim.  Perfect for cruisin' down the road this fall!

Ready for a Road Trip? Retro Style!

I love road trips - especially the kind that involve rockin' music, (might I suggest a little Sam Bradley anyone?) good friends and the anticipation of discovery!

So - I decided to expand the retro goodness beyond your standard steering wheel cover (because everyone already has one of those, right? (no? well then....).

In honor of my sister's birthday a few weeks ago (yep, I like to extend the birthday celebrations and send gifts after the actual celebratory day - you know, just to spread out the love (maybe a smidgen b/c I'm a scattered brained mom too, but don't tell her!  Second thought - she'd totally understand.  She's running her own amazing photography business & chasing 3 little ones around too - so, I digress....) back to the goods!)

Here you have Whoopsie Daisies luggage tags and handle cover! Because you never want your luggage to look like everyone else's! (Just ignore the fact that if you're lugging around this huge, heavy vintage suitcase, no one in the airport is going to have one like it anyway - makes for a cute picture tho, huh?) 

 In all seriousness though - I do love these.  I'm always wrapping bright ribbon around the handles of my boring black suitcase when we fly, so that I can easily spot my bag coming down the luggage ramp.  I'll be making a ton more of these for sure!  

Here is a little make-up bag I made for my sis too  - I'm especially loving the gray/yellow combination here!  

Then, because you want your car decked out in retro style - we have the rearview mirror cozy....

and.... the Steering Wheel cover.  (don't worry, if you're brother in law is not so inclined to drive the mini van around with a floral steering wheel cover  - like someone I know!) - it slips off quite easily and stuffs into the glove compartment.

Happy Road Trippin'!  Hope you're able to squeeze in one or two last trips for the summer!

  Psssstttttt!  Come find me on Twitter!  We'll have fun!  Are you the Facebook sort? 

Ready for a Road Trip?

Are you planning a road trip this summer?  Or just want to cruise in style?  Well.... how about a Rearview Mirror "cozy"?  Rearview Mirror "wrap"?  Rearview Mirror "cover"?  Rearview Mirror "Snuggy"?  (bet that one wouldn't fly... thinking that name has been taken already and goodness knows I'd hate to snag someone else's name!)  Not sure what to call them yet....  But thinking they look pretty stinkin cute with these awesome Steering Wheel "covers, cozies, wraps, thing-a-ma-blips".
Anywho - you can find them HERE for your purchasing pleasure.

That's it for now - can't believe it's been a month since my last post.  Summer is upon us and with that comes Theatre Camp, Soccer Camp, Vacation Bible School, Swim Lessons, and Tennis Camp - all in the month of June.  Maybe I've over scheduled - but let me tell you - it's not a piece of cake keeping two kiddies entertained (or contained) during 103 degree Texas heat.  I'm about ready to take a spoon from the kitchen and dig myself a swimming pool out back but the hubs is against that idea for some reason?


Next month it's off to Indiana to visit grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, a new pony and the county fair which is always a huge hit with my kids.


Til' we chat again.......

Vintage Hippie Steering Wheel Covers - opinions please?????

So, I'm curious about a reaction!  I've noticed steering wheel covers for sale in different places none of them had that funky vintage vibe - so I decided to try some myself.  What do you think??
I realize that the "Infiniti Sedan" doesn't make for the best photo, but it's not like I have a lot of cars at my disposal for picture taking.
So, list in the Etsy shop?  Or.... no?
You can even head over to the Whoopsie Daisies facebook page and Vote - thanks!!
