this is...

what i've been up to!

i've decided to make a series of postcards of some of my vintage toys and figures.
i have been collecting these for a number of years and i love them all, even the ones with chips and scrapes.  they are just too cute and if they could talk i'm sure they would have a ton to say. from the factory to the thrift store they would have stories and  maybe even a bit about me and my husband.... i guess it's a good thing they can't talk! ;) 

the postcards will be available in black tulip shop very soon, they will be sold in sets and individually.

keep checking our facebook for more information!

i got...

some exciting news! first, i'm working on a giveaway that will be both cute and functional...humm whatever could it be, keep checking back to find out! ;)

also i have a few new items in the shop including these cute earrings

which brings me to the next good news, i will be supplying a giveaway item and doing a interview for http://derbygirlsblog.com/ soon and once it's up and rolling i will let you know here and on our facebook page.

black friday is coming and yes i have to work which sucks but i guess that keeps me from spending money i don't have.
what also sucks is that's the day the sanrio pop-up tour rolls into atlanta.
i wish  could get video of it rolling in but heck i'm just glad it's coming to atlanta. i will make it there with cash in hand and getting some cute things so don't worry about me! i will upload pictures and video so keep checking back.

what doesn't suck is the sale i'll be having in the shop. i'm going to offer some deals for fans and i'll have scrap bags of fabric on sale also. i'm excited to give some deals to my supporters and  make room for new items.
