The ease of pillowcase dresses...

Pillowcase dresses have been around for decades, maybe even centuries, in concept.  Easy to sew, easy to wear, and the ribbons are adjustable to fit a wide size range, usually 2T to 4T, higher or lower, depending on the case.  The concept can be duplicated with two pieces of fabric, too, but when you start with a pillowcase much of the work is done for you!  We sold out last season, but more are in the works for Summer!  Here are a few from last season!

Leg Warmers Make a Come Back!

Grace looks especially adorable in her new leg warmers, which are making a come back.  Eden wears hers on her arms, even, after she puts on lotion to let it soak!  Here is Grace modeling her new "sock warmers" which are really socks with the foot cut off so that they can be layered like leg warmers but without the bulk!

We get ours from Knotty Baby Wear on Etsy!  Check out her line of legwear at this link http://www.etsy.com/search_results_shop.php?search_type=user_shop_ttt_id_70599&search_query=legs

Scarves and Things

Winter is underway here in the East, but the kids are toasty!  We have added a few hats and scarves, although they sell out as soon as I list them.  I am working on kid-pics for many of them and will list them soon, and a super cute ivory baby knit ascot and hat set will be added this week.  In the meantime, here is Grace modeling one of the pink handmade scarves!

What's Cookin' Good Lookin'?

Bakery items and sweets!  Sassy Grace Boutique has a new line of sweets straight from the kitchen!  We made the debut on Etsy last week and have already sold Snickerdoodles, Peanut Butter Cookies and Chocolate Covered Pretzels, Yum!!  We thought that nothing goes better with little girls and pampered shopping than a little tea shop to stop and sit a spell - just like we would have a Deux Memeres!  Coming soon - special blended loose-leaf teas and divinity - just like Gramma used to make!

Brazilian Summer Sets are Coming!

You will absolutely love what Sassy Grace has on the horizon!  Our recent trip to Brazil meant more hand-crocheted flowers from the artisans in Maceio (Obrigada) and inspiring colors.

We are also making more hair accessories and crochet beaded baubles.  The colors of the beads we have in stock are gorgeous.  We do custom colors, too, so if you are trying to match an outfit for summer, let us know!

But wait, there's more!  We have Brazilian dresses with the flatter elasticized bodice.

I already regret not purchasing more of these incredible comfortable, light-weight, wash and wear dresses on our trip.  We still have this white one, the black and an embroidered citrus.  They are one-size fits most, but the citrus dress is cut wider, so it would slip on a pre-teen.  Otherwise, they can fit about age 10-adult.  They will be $22 each or $35 with a matching necklace, which is a super deal since we normally sell the necklaces for $18 and over.

Brazil was the appropriate place to do our modeling, and Eden and Amelia look cool, calm and collected in the Brazilian summer!  I will be making gathered mock-smock tops for girls from a pattern from this green top from Maceio. 

We also have a few pairs of Havaianas (the ones that we did not keep for ourselves, because we had to show restraint).  We really love their comfort and simplicity and picked up a few that were just plain fun!

We have more new product photos too, but right now, I am sewing ditty bags for the beach, to match each pair of Haviainas, and adding a matching necklace too.  I really want to make the collections something special for those of you heading to the beach summer!  The dresses will be accented with matching jewelry before adding them to the shoppe!  I would hate to do anything half-way!

Thanks for looking! By the way, you guys are FAST.  I had 2 orders for Jordan Essentials today.  I am so appreciative of the orders and glad that you are trying out the products.  Your business is such a value and a blessing!

You will love Jordan Essentials!

You can ask anyone, but I am super picky about what I put on my kids (moreso that what I put in them), and my girls and I are very foo-foo when it comes to bathtime and skincare.  The more girl-stuff, the better!  Grace likes to paint in the bath, while Eden loves lip gloss!  Jordan Essentials, formerly Country Bunny Products, is one of my favorite bath and skin shoppes.

I personally love the Skin Care kit for Oily/Normal skin and the age-defying kit, and my skin always looks bright.  I am a huge supporter of pure, mineral makeup too, which I wish Jordan would also sell, but I have definitely noticed a difference when I changed my whole regime about 2 years ago.

There is even products for men, gift  sets and they do fundraisers. 

Interested?  Go to https://www.jordanessentials.com/home.php and click around. 

My consultant ID is 11109, if you want to place an order. 

I am very excited about what's new for Valentines Day and their diffuser sets are long-lasting and perfect for your home!

Thanks everyone!
