We made it back to Boston!

It was a lovely winter in the west visiting friends and family ... and meeting many of you! Nothing like a little sunshine and warm air to give you new inspiration and a fresh perspective.

Olivia and I were lucky enough to be accompanied by a dear friend on our journey cross country! It made our days pass quickly with laughter, conversation and brainstorming for a new business!

We traveled the Southern route to enjoy as much warm weather as we could, stopping in Holbrook, AZ at the Wigwam Motel. Such a cool place to stay one day. They have tee-pees set up like individual guest rooms - SO COOL! Quick stay in Amarillo, TX and then after a long drive we landed in Nashville, TN for a wonderful dinner and some live music! One more day on the road put us in Harrisburg, PA for the night after stopping for sushi in Roanoke, VA. Day 4 landed us back in Boston! Phew - very long trip but beautiful to see the country! A few photos above encapsulate our trip :)

Now, back to business with Summer & Fall shows. You'll be able to meet us at The Greenway Shows in Boston every Saturday, May 7 - Oct 8 and The Ink Block Shows every Sunday, May 1 - Oct 23! Watch for new styles hand-crafted from beautiful new leather hand picked from Los Angeles and New York. Visit us and introduce yourself - we'd love to meet you!

More show news and magazine ads to tell you about too, stay tuned!

Smile, Hug, Love,

We have been featured in House of Coco, Vol 5, COCO LOVES!

We are truly so grateful for all of the media attention coming our way! Not only were we able to be part of the Designer Spotlight(see previous blog post for details) in House of Coco's online magazine but we're also in Volume 5 of their print magazine too! Available now in the UK. We shared our Pink Orchid Tote, Silver Sparkle Wristlet and our Pink Orchid Pouch! It's really all so exciting and there's even more on the way ... stay tuned!

What is the hardest challenge you have faced since you started the company?

"Finding time to design! There are so many facets to owning a business and they all need proper attention. I find it challenging to make the time to sit down and focus on designing."
