Show Season

Show Season. We love a show.

We started out with Christmas In Cowtown and it was a 5 day show in Ft Worth.

We had a blast.

One day we had a BYOM (bring your own mom) day.

We had so many visitors and met so many awesome people.  It was just such a fun show.

Then we went to Handmade Harvest in Denton and it was just phenomenal.  

The talent there was insane and the people were so nice.

Rachel and Daniel watched shea for the day and brought her up to the show.  And Allisons kids came and helped and then Kenna stayed with us the whole show! It was so fun having the kids there with us.

Then we had the FleaStyle in Dallas.

It was two days this year and we had tons of fun setting up the screen wall that bob built for the show.

Jan made us some garland and it is gorgeous.  We love the challenge of finding a new way to set up our booth.  It's always so much fun for us to switch it up.

And of course Craig was there with his fanny pack.  That he copied from us.  That he won't admit to. But we all know the truth.

Then we took the screen wall to our last show in Ft Worth.

Where Bob got me the best pizza I have ever had.

And we had a blast with so many of the amazing people we have me through this.

We have had a blast doing shows and we cant wait for the next show season!

Celebrate Always Shop (as of lately)

We can not ever tell you guys how much it means to us when y'all buy our shirts.  It has been the most humbling and exciting thing to send shirts out and then see y'all in them or on instagram.  It is literally one of the very best feelings.  From the bottom or our hearts we thank y'all for buying from us!

We have had so much fun lately.  We made a "This Land is Our Land" tee and tank and we were able to put them into a store downtown McKinney called The Little Red Hen.

Yes, it was through a connection and we knew someone who knows them really well, but we will count it as our first wholesale experience.  It was so much fun and I geeked out like a crazy person and went inside and hugged everyone.  They thought I was insane but it was just ridiculous seeing them outside like that.  And we know I am not one who often can hold back my excitement.  Especially when I am nervous and dont know you...

How fun is this? An actual rack!
So, thank you Little Red Hen for making dreams come true over here!

We did some probono printing for Shiloh Place McKinney that I have worked with for about a year or so.  We did four colors (!!!) which I didnt know how it would go, but it really was great! We have learned so much in all of this.  We did about four colors with Linds for Haley's bday and they went ok but the water based was hard.  So we switched to plastisol for this one and it was so easy! I didnt know we could mix colors with plastisol but once we figured that out and how to cure them and stuff, it was so great.

Jeff is our secret weapon.  He knows everything there is to know about printing and loves to print as much as we do.  I am so thankful for him and I could not do any of this without him.  We know I dont read instructions or watch instructional videos (and he does.  all of them) and I would have to learn everything from experience.  And since I rarely try new ways to do things, that would probably happen the hard way.  He pushes me to be better and try new things.  He also pushes me to do it right the first time, no matter the time it takes to prep or however insignificant it seems.


We did Michael and Caroline's bach party shirts too and that was so much fun.
We worked forever on bachelor party and bachelorette party beer labels that we both forgot to take with us to the actual parties... but they were fun to make and are now a download in our shop if you need one for a bachelorette party or bachelor party or even a wedding!


We did have koozies tho...

Becca and her kids came over and printed their own designs and designed a BEST CAMP EVER shirt that was a huge hit.


We made some pins to match too for Becca to send them in their care package.  How stinkin cute is Mary?! Gorgeous.

We did a whole sale order in Big Spring (Woo hoo West TX forever!) with baby lake days tanks and a few more tees.



We have a few more designs in the shop too that have been fun when people buy them.  I mean, I assume everyone has seen Dont Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead, but then you never know.  SO when someone buys it and instagrams it and includes #thedishesaredonedude your heart swells like only a 90's movie line can make it grow.
We have had a lot of custom orders too.  Allison is working on right now for Anna's salon, we did a few softball jerseys, some more bach tanks, vacation shirts and more.  I really can never say enough how thankful we are to sell shirts and have you guys buy them.

Coffee Girl

So, Avery and her cousin Halie have a coffee shop that they have imagined that they play over at their Nana's house whenever Halie is in town.  They call it Coffee Girl.  They have a menu, fake food, real food, set up- the whole thing.

This year Avery wanted to have a Coffee Girl party.  And she wanted it in Paris (where does she get this stuff?! Cracks me up.  We have never been to Paris and she is really such a homebody in real life.  But not in her imagination, I guess.)

So, I got some brick paper from Michael's, we built this awning using MADE's tutorial, and I had some left over plastic from the twins fishbowl costume to use for the window.
Coffee Girl came alive.
Avery wanted a drop off party.  She invited a few girls from school and she let Sass invite a couple too.  And then Kinley and all the Booth girls.





We used Hot Chocolate instead of coffee and let the girls draw on some aprons and take their coffee/punch cups home with them.


Pics in front of the iconic sign.


I gave all the girls lipstick to wear.  I felt like that was a Parisian thing, right?


Avery made some coupons for anyone who forgot their wallet.






Look at that baby Dylan! HE was just an angel the entire time and just smiled and cooed and kissed all of Shea's baby dolls that she would let him hold.





Look at these beautiful lipsticked cousins.  So stinkin cute.



We all had to have a little photoshoot in front of Coffee Girl.  I mean, when in Paris.

Even the dads got into it.

Happy birthday my little Coffee Girl.  I love you so much! And though you are strangely out of every pic or in the back- I hope you had the best birthday!
