Look What We (freaking) Did!!!

So, we've been trying to slowly start our Etsy shop. However, we wanted to test our market and see if our stuff actually sold. (And if we had any business skills whatsoever). Well, it turns out that we do! We are now selling our stuff through commission at One Girl's Treasure, a local high-end thrift store near us. We're so thrilled to finally be getting started! We made an agreement (with each other, that is) that we will have our Etsy shop up and running by mid-March. And dang it all, we will. But for now, we're going to revel in our wee little success.

Here's our little stand! We are selling as "Pixie Tree Productions."

We even made business cards! This is going to be out-of-control fancy.


So,if you live in the GR area, come check us,Pixie Tree Productions,(and the sweet fashions and other unique,handmade items) out at OGT. If not, well then, our etsy will be up and running shortly!


Stay fancy,Fancy Lads!

Adventures in Valentines

Well dear readers, we were on a retreat this weekend, thus the complete lack of posting and or commenting on your lovely stuff,which we regret. That said,we did have a fantastic time cross country skiing, sledding, and doing other types of  winter activities,and just in time,apparently, as it's supposed to hit 50 degrees in our neck of the country by the end of this week(w00t!) We brought along valentine making supplies for down time,which came quite in handy,we'll tell you.We made some quite ugly valentines for funsies, and then the next day Betsy made cute ones with one of our friends,who happens to have mad crafting talent. Here are some photos for you...

Homemade hot cocoa and crafting is a lovely combo...
Valentine makin' supplies,of both the hideous and adorable variety.
That's Jonie in the ruffles. FYI.
A super cheesy ugly Valentine for a mutual friend of ours...
We stayed busy,you see.
The card reads:"Even if I have to bite the dust a million times,I will never be your valentine!"
 The card above has a story attached,we promise. And here it is:

"My sister (Jonie speaking) told me that she didn't want to go on a "date" with me for Valentine's Day, and then called back later when she realized she was actually free. So, I made her a card with an important moral lesson attached...never reject your own sister as your valentine."

So,how DID we celebrate the 14th? Well, our Mommies gave us candy,and we went out to dinner with some friends(and some sisters,too!) to celebrate Singles Awareness Day. All in all a lovely day.
What did you do to celebrate Valentines day?

What We've Been Up To

We've been busy. Busy making this blog. Busy with school. Busy with making stuff. So here's what we've been making.

A whimsical feather hair clip.

Our philosophy is that hair bows are for anyone!




Is winter bumming you out? Us too. Look, FLOWERS!!!


A simple bow headband for those of us obsessed with stripes



What is this, you ask? Why, it's a flower, made from window screen! Be rebellious and fancy at the same time? Deal.

Upcycled buttons added to the stretchy headbands we all wear, for those of us to lazy to do our hair for real but who still want to look...decent.




Fantastic recycled notebooks

What more can we say? It's just a happy notebook.

Some of our goods, all packaged, just waiting for us to open an Etsy shop and sell at local handmade stores. *Sigh*

Stay Fancy,Fancy Lads!
