Pardon me ma'am, you seem to have dropped a name...
My sweet (and utterly fabulous!) friend Heather Bailey has finally got her Trash Ties up and available and I'm so excited for her and Isaac! It's been a long road for them and we have had the privilege of sharing in a small part of their journey (did I mention she lives a mile from my house?). So run over there (to the website, not her house) and do some Christmas shopping because, I'm telling you, these things are incredible!
Heather has also graciously offered to give FREE Trash Ties to each of the winners of all my ebay auctions listed in the month of December because she has seen my ancient sewing machine and taken great pity on me and my desperate quest to get a new one. I'm thrilled to have the help and to have an opportunity to publicly sing the praises of these amazing hair accessories! Oh, and EVERY bid my auctions receive in December will get entered into a drawing (on Jan 4th) for a free (yes!) outfit made from Heather's Freshcut fabric (I got it straight from her hands!). Look at it (no drooling please):
But about those Trash Ties.....
My daughter received a bunch of Trash Ties in the spring and being the mean mom that I am, I quickly stole them. Yes, it's true. I do not have great hair and I couldn't believe how cute these things made my hair look! Check out this picture of my fuzzy, unwashed, DIY dye-job hair done up in Trash Ties (sorry Heather. I hope I don't make your company tank because of this picture):
I feel pretty, oh so pretty!!! This took me about a minute and I was out the door on my way to the mall! I may have to take some better pictures (like when I've actually taken a shower and put a little effort into it!) but I'm telling you, I have 3 daughters with long thick hair (didn't get it from me obviously!) and these make it so easy and fun to do those Princess Leia cinnamon buns. Crazy fun!
Oh, and here are some great pictures of my listed outfits taken by my friend Chanelle and her (Oh my gosh! Isn't she cute?!) daughter Arie:
Fun!!
Hey! Did I mention that the winners of these auctions get FREE TRASH TIES??!! AND did I mention that EVERY bid gets entered into a drawing for an outfit made from Freshcut fabric INCLUDING a set of Trash Ties??!! Run, don't walk!







what a cutie pie.... she looks like a blythe doll only with cuter clothes. to really do the trash ties justice you need to show them in your beautiful daughters hair not that there is anything wrong with yours. i think your hair started out at birth that color or close. sooo many years ago. anyway i love these new outfits...

Love your designs!!! And I just ordered some trash ties for my daughter for Christmas. I love seeing all the creative children's clothing. I made a lot of my daughter's clothes when she was little and it was great fun.

Cool! I may have to check those out.

Hey...just a thought...maybe if you gave away trash ties as an incentive? Oh and you might wanna think about possibly having a drawing where people could get entered just by bidding on your stuff? Hope these suggestions help...seems I'm always having to be the brains of the family...when I'm not being the cute or funny one.

I'm excited about those Trash Ties! I just ordered the long lime green one and the short dark brown ones, and I am DYING to get them! I know they will be spectacular!

Wish I could bid or win a lovely dress. However, my little one is a boy.
