It's almost Valentime's!

The sappiest, fakest holiday of the year is just around the corner, folks and of course I've got the most sweet, nasty, thoughtful, rude, offensive cards for you to express how you REALLY feel! Here is just small sample of what I've got in the store right now but don't forget I can make you a custom card too.















And here are just a few other whatever cards.

Jake and Cleo doing good things!


I'm so pumped to be carrying a lovely and eco friendly jewelry line created by two equally lovely people!

Jake and Cleo:
Our .999 fine silver starts with a pat of precious metal clay, which contains 100% reclaimed silver. All scraps, filings and dust are captured to be used in future designs: recycling creates zero production waste.


And the beautiful, unique pieces these ladies come up with are sure to become your all time favourite piece of jewelry to wear. Keeping with their green theme, they often use blades of grass or dill flower to imprint a unique pattern onto their focal pieces making each piece one of a kind.

Come down and check these great designs in person today!

Schwack of new cards!

I've also finally found a bunch of hoodies to silk screen and screened up a bunch of the Louis Slurpee hoodies after selling out over the holidays!

A great big THANK YOU!

I just wanted to thank all of my awesome customers for supporting Sew Dandee and all things handmade in 2010! I've got my fingers crossed that 2011 will be an even bigger and better year for handmade and supporting local businesses.

It's time we all really put more thought into where we spend our money and who we want to support as a consumer. With shops like Mozy Rue Eco Collective and Where The Wool Things Are, two fantastic shops supporting locally made and crafty items of all kinds, it's becoming much easier to buy local and keep the money you spend in your community. And places like The Artful Owl and Martha Street Studio are the perfect places to get your creative juices flowing. They just might be the inspiration you need to get your own line of handmade items off the ground. And when you do, be sure to come see me!

So, I hope you'll spread the word and keep your ear to the ground for ways to support your locally owned and operated shops and arts and crafts studios! Shop with your heart, people!

Sew Dandee loves you!

I hope to see you all soon! And don't forget, I can still do custom silk screening of all my Manitoba silk screens in time for the holidays. Just bring me a shirt, hoodie, onesie or whatever and I'll get'r done!

One more thing, I'll be set up at Mozy Rue Eco Collective this Sunday for a friends and family sale/open house with some great stocking stuffers like my cards, switch plates, pins and magnets along with a bunch of other local crafty folks! You should come on down and check it out! We'll be there from 3pm to 7pm. Mozy Rue is a fantastic shop filled with locally made goodies that is well worth checking out if you haven't already. Hope to see you all there!

New Goodies Galore!!

Well, I've been busy coming up with some new silk screens for you fine people and here is some of what I've come up with!



And I'm super jazzed about my new tea towel screens! Can you tell I'm a bit of a cupcake fiend?





And my fine crafty friends have loaded me up with a bunch of new goodies today, too! Like these crazy cool i.d. cases by Dumb Chauffeur.



And these adorable domino brooches by Ticketyboo!



And finally the lovely Ruth of Periwinkle Designs brought me in some amazing new creations featuring recycled computer parts. They are beyond cool in the nerdiest way.





So, get your butts on down here and support handmade this holiday season! Hope to see you all soon!
