2 pretty pink scarves

More pink goodies from generous crafty gals are arriving for this Sunday's party - including the fabric scarf (above) mixed by Sally of djbebe. A fellow Toowoomba-ite of Sal's is Judy Timmins, who knits beautiful scarf creations that have been available at Lyssy May for the past year or so and are hugely popular. Judy has delivered a fresh batch of designs, including a pink one (below) that will be auctioned on Sunday as well. The RSVP's are now officially closed but we can always squeeze in a few more so please let me know if you'd like to come along by Friday.

Tickled Pink

One of the most dangerous things in having a shop combined with my work area is that there are lots of things to distract me when I am in the mood for a bit of procrastinating - particularly rearranging displays. Back when I worked from home the distraction was generally Oprah or the Bold and the Beautiful so I guess I have moved up a notch in the relevance to the task at hand (although an average day at Forester Creations has definitely prepared me for the real world of running a fashion house - or not).

So on Tuesday I was halfway through making a bag when I decide that I need to change my window display - and that this must be done straight away, immediately, now. So with my machine still running I dug out the step ladder and got to work.

This week I am in a bit of a pink mood so I have featured some of the fabulous work of Shannon of My Girl in the window. Her gorgeous creations have been a wonderful addition to the range of products at Lyssy May and pictured are some of her modified singlets along with some other pretty items that I stock, like childrens hats and one of my Little Miss designs. I also used a picnic basket to display a new scarf that has just arrived as part of a range by Judy of Toowoomba (more on her scarves in entries to come).

Hmm, I did say its a dangerous thing but working on displays is also one of the best things about working from a shop too...except maybe for the daily dusting.
