Research shopping.

Good morning all!

Sorry we didn't post yesterday, we got very sidetracked. It was a pretty sunny day so it was a nice change from blustery Tuesday.

We decided to do some shopping. So we went to my local mall..(the only mall in the area, and it's about a half hour away...I live in a very small town). Anyway, we wandered in and out of all the best stores just getting an idea of what is in style this season. We got a lot of ideas and I'm excited to put those ideas to action!

I also got a cute pair of sequence shorts that I'm super happy about. I've never really worn sequence anything but I want to branch out a little. Em took a cute photo of me with them on in the dressing room!

Also, last night we took some extremely silly photos with our new double finger rings! (which we decided to test out since we keep seeing folks wearing them).
I hope you're ready to laugh.

We were very overtired and giggling wayy too much about my strange faces.

We did take a sort of "normal" photo too.

....as "normal" as we could be at least. Haha

Overall, it was a really great day yesterday, we needed the laughs. I think we've been too serious for the last few days so it was really nice to just chill out and laugh.

Today we do plan to do a lot of work. We are finally going to finish inventory, we had to pick up more tags yesterday so we're ready to finish up..so we can keep making more that we have to inventory. Haha. I also think we will be doing more work on the website. We will see. Anyway, I'm off!!


much love,

A cold morning...

This morning looks terribly cold outside. Emily and I plan to get some supplies from the craft store today but looking at all the snow blowing around outside I'm not exactly excited about this plan. We are also getting a huge donation of fabric from a family member today. We don't even know what everything looks like, or even what type of fabric it is but we're pretty excited!

I'm watching the weather channel right now and it makes me so disappointed...I just want it to be summer, it's been cold and snowy for TOO long in my opinion. Oh well we can't do much about that.

Moving on....Em and I did a bit of sewing last night. She was making a romper and I was making a vest. Neither one of us finished yet but I'm sure we will today.

Well my loves, I am going to finish my coffee (my first cup at least) and start the day!

This photo was taken when it was WARM outside. I miss the warmth!

Working hard!

Yesterday Emily and I were busy with trying to figure out the .com site. We didn't get all that far but with an entire week ahead of us I'm confident we can at least get started on building it. Today we plan to finish inventory and hopefully do a little sewing.

It's becoming very clear that a small business is a lot of work but we want to do this SO bad and I know we can do it, we just need to keep pressing on. With your support I know we can make it! So please, keep letting us know how we're doing and encourage us to keep going! We appreciate all of you and will be sure to keep you updated every step of the way!

I LOVE this photo!

Changes!

Emily and I received some much needed and much appreciated advice and are currently working on putting that advice to action! As you can tell I have been messing with the look and layout of our blog. What do you think so far?

We will continue playing around with this probably all day. It's fun!

As you see on the right side of the blog there is an event listed! The March, 5th craft show in Rensselear, NY. Be sure to mark your calendars to come out and see us!

Alright, there is MUCH to do!


much love,

IT'S FRIDAY!!!

Emily is coming today! Woot woot! I'm sure we're going to be super busy this weekend/week..however long she stays!

Working on the websites. More applications, inventory, photos! AHHH it's gonna be great though! Hopefully we will get tons accomplished!

I made a vest yesterday..I think vests are my favorite thing to make. They are SO cute and versatile. I'm sure I'll get photos up at some point. I hope you are all checking out our facebook page though. There's a lot to look at there. Not to mention the senseofashion site which makes it easy to purchase whatever you want!

There's lots to look forward to when it comes to Zhoozh Brand so stick with us!!

Blade sharpener!

I got my new rotary cutter blade sharpener in the mail today! I am SO excited about it. There's nothing like really sharp stuff to cut fabric with! Haha. OHH the enjoyment I get out of cutting stuff! Haha!!

That's what it is! Woooo I've already sharpened my cutter and have been just basically cutting scraps. It's really pretty fun!


Alright all, until later!


much love,

Brit

Friday Funday!!!

Good morning! Good morning! It's great to stay up late!!

How is everyone this morning? I'm doing well so far. I have my coffee beside me and a bowl of yogurt, bran flakes, raspberries, and bananas. Yummy!

Guess what I'll be doing today?! You guessed it. Sewing!!!! Haha. It really is my favorite thing to do so I suspect I'll be doing it all day long. I may take a break to go to Hobby Lobby and get some more black thread and probably some sort of lace. It's pretty!

Yesterday we got an invitation to the 40th annual Can-Am Festival in Sackets Harbor, NY. It's July 16-17! We went last year and had a really good time there so we look forward to going again this year! I'll keep you updated!

I have a feeling that Emily has some sort of news for me this morning, I'm waiting to hear back from her. I know she's been busy finishing up with the new cash register program and the inventory. I told her she needs to start making some jewelry too! I'm not a jewelry maker at all so I rely on her to do that!

Well my friends I'm off to finish my coffee and breakfast so I can jump into sewing for the day!


much love,
