Every once in awhile I have a stroke of genius, a brilliant idea, if you will... and I think I just had one. Maybe. Proceed to find out more...
People like choices. Right? You don't? Well, most people do. And I am all about giving people choices.
Now, for the first time, lemon drop studio has an option of choosing your own collection of penny ponytail holders, making it completely yours and completely unique.
Above is the picture of the first batch of choices. You get to pick five. I swear, sometimes I amaze myself... and stop by the shop if you want more details. You can visit the shop anytime you'd like, but how about now? Click here.
I would love to introduce another collection of penny ponytail holders to you, fresh from lemon drop studio's shop - The Bella Collection.
Lovely, right? I love the chocolate brown along with the light purple, not a color combination I thought I would enjoy until I sat the fabrics next to one another. It makes me think about Valentine's Day, which seems to be right around the corner. The Bella Collection is pleased to meet you all...
Stay tuned for more Valentine's Day goodies, coming soon!
Yummy Yum, I am loving these new fabrics!! Aren't they so much fun!?
Here are some new ponytail holders and hair clips that I put in the shop this morning.
And stay tuned, because button bobby pins are coming soon and I am so very excited!!
Sorry for the short post, I am not feeling well and my brain cells must be conserved, as the day is young and my kiddo is hyper!
Best,
Shauna

I got to pick up a few new fun fabrics yesterday, so of course I had to make some ponytail holders and clips right away. They are also already up in the shop. I am busy getting ready for Vino100 this coming Thursday, so I am off creating. I'll check in every once in awhile though to make sure you guys are doing okay and to share my goodies!
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.
xo,
Shauna
So, many of you know that I am an avid fan of Heather Armstong's website, Dooce. If you didn't know that about me, or have never been to the site, get with it. And shame on you. I am mostly joking, sort of.
Well, anyway, back to the story. I have been reading her blog for over a year and have the tiniest of girl-crushes on her and her site. Well, not a crush, but I really admire Heather and her site, and she makes me laugh so hard I either pee a little or spit a bit, or tons, really, so win-win. Okay, but I digress...
Less than a month ago I decided to send Heather's daughter Leta some of the hair ponies and clips that I make and sell in my etsy shop. Okay, so I got up the courage to make them and send them. I was intimidated and scared and shaking with admiration and nerves. Am I crazy? Yes.
Well a few weeks ago I got this in the mail.
HELLO! That is Chuck, their dog, all glammed up in his Lonni costume/persona with his pink legwarmers and blue hair, awesome.
Wait?! For me?! What?! So I flipped it over, and really tried to fight the urge of smelling the postcard (sorry, I know I am totally strange!), and Heather wrote to me and said she'd feature the ponies and clips on her site. WHAT?! Pinch me. Ouch. Do it again. Okay, thanks.

So, I was all hyped up about just getting the post card. I threw Taylor's watercolor pictures off the front of the fridge, along with a card I bought for my hubs, Trask, and put the postcard up, right in the center, and threatened the men in the house that if they even bent the corner I would attack.
So here I am today, just getting home from reading at story time at Styledbaby Boutique, Cafe + Playhouse, and really was just thinking that it was a good day today so far.
I hopped on the computer to check my email and to read Dooce, and HOLY COW, OH MY GOODNESS, AM I GOING TO POOP MY PANTS?!... my hair clips and ponies were right there in the Daily Style section, the cute lemon just peeking out of the box. I knew that lemon right away!!



So anyway, I have been featured on Dooce and am now feeling pretty good. I am walking with better posture, my cold is gone, I am like 30 pounds lighter and I am no longer scared of spiders and stepping in dog poop. It's a good day. Click here if you want to see it right from Dooce's site.
Please go and check out Heather's blog, it's amazing. And keep going back there daily, because it's always a great read, and is something I look forward to daily, or hourly.
And, thank you so much Heather, for featuring lemon drop's hair ponies and clips, it truly means a lot to me. Probably more than you are comfortable with!!
Thanks for celebrating with me.
These Lucky Girl Penny Ponytail Holders in my etsy shop are really making me happy. I love how they look together, and I love all the patterns on the fabric. How cute are they?! The answer is: so very cute, Shauna, so very cute.
That is all.
Don't forget about the SALE going on now!!
So a few weeks ago Taylor and I met Summer at the neatest place in downtown Hillsboro for lunch and to chat... and I just fell in love! We went to Styledbaby Boutique, Cafe + Playhouse (on East Main Street, near Subway) and it is just the coolest place ever, and the owner is so wonderful... so, so fun! Anyway, I spoke with her about maybe bringing in some of lemon drop studio's fresh-squeezed gifts and we set up an appointment.
My meeting was last Wednesday and it went great! I now am a vendor for Styledbaby and am blessed to have my crayons and hair ties in her lovely boutique now. I am also going to do my silhouettes (custom and stock), frames and some other fun goodies. If anyone is in the neighborhood - you have to go in and check out her boutique. Or come visit me and I'll take you there myself! Really, it's such a blessing to have met Delia and I just know her boutique is going to be such an asset to the community and to families all around. Go check her out!!
