More fun lunch bags...

These lunch bags are quickly becoming a hit! Why wouldn't they? Everyone loves monogramming and they are perfect lunch bags ~ just wipe off spills with water.

I designed these for my new friend, Mary Ann. She is the SWEETEST boutique owner in central Florida. She will begin carrying our lunch bags and hair accessories in her two boutiques.

Made-to-match Gymboree

I am very behind on my made-to-match Gymboree items. I have completed some items and have listed them in my ETSY store and on EBAY. They match ~ social butterfly, happy rainbow, and daisy days.

Personalized Lunch Bags

Just listed this adorable lunch bag in my ETSY STORE ~ www.sayitwithflair1.etsy.com. It is a personalized oil cloth lunch bag. How cute is that? Riley took it to school today and it was the talk of her school. She was so proud of her *new* bag. I have lots of other colors and designs I will be listing soon. I will also be listing the vinyl monograms (for those who want the personalized waterproof sticker ~ for a lunch bag they already have).

New Princess Sign

I worked on this sign today. It is an 8x8 metal *tin* plaque in white wash. Can you imagine giving this at a baby shower or to a new mom? It is great to hang on the door or in the baby's room. You could also personalize it ~ instead of PRINCESS put the child's name or how about "Shhh...princess (child's name) is sleeping!"

It is listing my ETSY store ~ www.saywithflair1@etsy.com.

Just wanted to let ya'll know Monkey See Boutique was featured on www.shopmacarthur.com for THE CUDDLY HIPPO.

Here is a copy of the write up:

Monkey See Flower Hats - just $15.00 Hats have a removeable flower clip for ease in washing. We are adding bows and headbands as well, which should be in the store by Saturday.

Monkey See Boutique is a local company. Read about this company below.

Michelle Young is the owner and designer of Monkey See Boutique. Michelle and her husband are both local and graduated from Maury High School. With Michelle’s love for unique boutique finds, Monkey See Boutique began after the birth of her first daughter in 2002, with the support of friends and family. Through the years, her product line has developed with the needs of her girls and loyal clients. Always listening to feedback, she continually develops new products through creativity and innovation. As the designer behind Monkey See Boutique, perfection is not an option; it is truly her passion. Only the finest materials and ribbons are used. All ends are heat-sealed because a frayed end is never pretty. Your Monkey See Boutique product is made to last because beauty should last through generations of childhood memories. You can find her products at boutiques such as The Cuddly Hippo. Monkey See Boutique will also be featured in a celebrity gift basket presented to Brooke Burke, Jeannie Garth, and Jessica Alba in February.

Birthday Hats

I am at it again...just so many ideas in this head of mine. Actually...I had a little help on this one. I had always seen these cute "over the top" birthday hats for children in various boutiques. Of course, I always wanted to get one...you know how that story plays out...I never got around to it...yada yada yada. Well, the owner of the Cuddly Hippo asked me if I made them and *light bulb* went off! I could try it. These are just my first ones. I am in the experimenting stages and making different samples (but I think I am on the right track).

Enjoy! More fun things are coming...
