HAPPY EARTH DAY!

Well, my Earth Day is off to a great start thanks to the lovely and talented Miss Rebecca of Everything is Ticketyboo! Check out this Earth Day inspired write-up she did on Try Handmade today that includes a mention of my favorite light switch cover!





Try Handmade is a fantastic site that covers every angle of the handmade world with articles written by crafty chickas from all across North America. And Winnipeg's own Rebecca Hadfield is one of the fantastic contributors! A big THANKS goes out to you, my dear! Check out her Etsy shop or just come down to Sew Dandee to see her vintage inspired, clever creations.

And in honor of Earth Day at Sew Dandee I'm giving away a FREE handmade reusable tote bag with every purchase of $10 or more! So, get on your bike, put on some walking shoes, jump on your skateboard or strap on some roller skates and head down to Sew Dandee today and love the earth! It's the only one we've got!

Reminder: The swap is fast approaching!!

Just a reminder about the swap! Be sure to drop off your stuff and register by this FRIDAY!!

It's that time again for a Sew Dandee Clothing Swap! And what better time than Spring to clean out and freshen up your wardrobe!?

Bring AT LEAST 10 items of somewhat current clothing or footwear in good, freshly washed conditon (NO stains, holes, pilling etc.) along with $15 to Sew Dandee before April 23rd and you'll then be entitled to all the awesome new-to-you clothing and shoes your heart desires!

In addition to the swapped clothes, I'll have a sale on all the Sew Dandee Gently worn clothing.

Items left over at the end of the night will be reworked into new items for the store, donated to a local women's shelter or you may be able to put them on consignment here at Sew Dandee for store credit. No matter what, they'll all find a good home.

Items can be dropped off at the store between 10am and 6pm Monday to Friday before April 23rd. Please don't show up the night of the swap with a bin of stuff. Register and get your stuff in to me by April 23rd so I can have them all nicely organized for you to parouse the night of the swap.

Let's get our swap on!

Get Your Head In The Oven!

I have to admit, this is my new favorite crafty creation available at Sew Dandee! Local crafter, Chandra Mayor of Head In The Oven Aprons has revived a classic craft in the form of the COOLEST aprons I've ever seen! She seeks out unique, vintage aprons from anywhere and everywhere and pain-stakingly and lovingly hand embroiders lyrics from hits of the 80s. And the cleverness is almost painful! Lyrics such as 'Pour Some Sugar On Me' and 'Whip It Good' are just the tip of the witty iceburg.

These pieces of wearable art are fully functional AND machine washable, too. And not only can you look retro and hip in the kitchen, they also look fantastic worn as tops or layered over a skirt, dress or leggings. You can wear it while whipping up a batch of cupcakes and then run out the door for a night out of dancing!

More Mystery Girl Dresses!

I got the most lovely package at the store today! More of the beautiful, unique Mystery Girl dresses! The first batch she sent just flew out the door and I'm guessing these will do the same! So, make sure to get down here ASAP and snag one of these beauties for yourself!


Here is just one of the three styles she sent.

SUNGLASSES GALORE!

I just got in a whole bunch of new super awesome sunglasses in every color of the rainbow! Come see for yourself!

New Stuffs!!

So, I'm making room for some new sunglasses which means I've marked down all the ones I have in the store now to $5!! That's right! Five bones! So, come load up!

Yesterday, the lovely and talented Tara Davis stopped by with lots of gifts for Sew Dandee! She has some new adorable charm necklaces and earrings that are drop-dead cute! Plus she's moving out west soon (insert tears of sadness) so she's emptying her closet of lots of fantastic, fun and brightly colored clothing for our second hand section! Her stuff always sells fast so get down here soon or risk missing out on that super awesome one of a kind piece!

And to top it all off, Amber of Mystery Girl Clothing in Edmonton sent out six new spring dresses that I'm in LOVE with! It'll be hard not to keep them all for myself! Come see them today!

F.Y.I. Sew Dandee will be closed tomorrow for Good Friday, open 10am to 6pm Saturday, closed Easter Sunday and then back to normal hours come Monday! Happy Chocolate Bunny weekend to you all!
