Halloween Buckets Are Here!

I must say my clients are awesome. I have a following of repeat and regular clients that keep me on my toes. I have had several of them start asking in July for Halloween bucket designs. I promised them they were coming and here they are (well some of them). I worked on these after hours (as I do all my design work). Burning the midnight oil as to not disrupt production time - we all know this is valuable time.
This is only the icing on the cake for the designs. More are in the works along with samples and other products for this holiday such as larger tubs, trays and wine glasses. Stay tuned!

Back To School Sale in the ETSY shop

Everyone loves a good sale, right? Grab a new backpack and/or lunch bag just in time for back to school in the Etsy shop. The black and white polka dot, wacky dot, camo and daisy backpacks and matching lunch bags are all on sale until August 19th. Monogramming is included!

Moving on...to Florida that is!

Hello everyone! It has been way too long since I posted something on the blog and I promise going forward to do much better (or at least try). Honestly, I have been so extremely busy filling orders (working 7 days a week) to get them processed, produced and shipped...there is little time left for anything else.

Currently, the business is temporarly closed as I embark on a personal adventure that promises to keep me just as busy (at least for a couple of weeks). We are moving from Tennessee to Tampa, Florida. Yes, while we are sad to leave the friends we have made in our short 2 year military tour in Memphis, TN, we are looking forward to the sunshine and activities a city like Tampa, FL has to offer. It is a big undertaking to move a family however, even a bigger undertaking to move a business like mine with inventory, machines, transferring accounts and other bookeeping (the less glamorous part of the business). Fear not, it will get done and I am hoping to reopen on June 15th.

I hate to close at all, but it is a must. The best part about taking a break...I am finally caught up on orders (such a WONDERFUL feeling) and when I reorganize the new studio... I have so many ideas to make it more productive which is a good thing for me and YOU! Hopefully, I can take some photos and share them with you.

Lots of great new products are coming along with the debut of Simple Chic Boutique. A great division of Monkey See Boutique to include trendy clothing, accessories and purses. July is the official launch and in June I will offer a couple of giveaways to promote this division. Fun jewelry, handbags and outfits will be part of the giveaways...so stay tuned!

There will also be a couple of clearance/sale items on the website ...you will not want to miss them. Over the summer I will also be hard at work trying to revamp the website. Bringing new fonts, choices and products.

Thank you all so much for following and supporting Monkey See Boutique! Love to all!

New Printed Tape

There is lots of energy and work around the studio these days as we gear up for the holiday season! I continue to work on updating the website, order holiday products, process orders, design new products and so much more. I wish there were 40 hours in one day!
This is just a sneak peek at some decorative tape that will be coming to the website. I just LOVE this product! There are so many things you can do with it and I will be offering some ideas of how to use it once I get it up. Think about using white or kraft recycled paper for your holiday gifts and decorate it with the decorative tape! Simple perfection!

Getting Ready for Back To School!

Are you getting ready for back to school? I know we are around our house. Time to purchase school supplies, clothes, shoes, lunch bag snack...maybe a new lunch bag or backpack? I have two great new items - oil cloth backpacks and lunch bags. You can get them matching and they come personalized of course! Take a peek at the fun prints!

Decorative Car Monograms

New car monograms are being introduced this month on the website and in the ETSY shop! Designed in the MSB studio...these bright *unique* car decals are simply fabulous!
I designed these with the sorority girl and mom in mind, but don't limit them to just greeks and moms...they are great for anyone! Get creative and think of a cute saying for your car.

New Changes Coming to the Website

I have been extremely busy in the studio filling orders and creating new designs and products. Right now, I am in the middle of working on branding the company with a new website! I am so excited about this face lift and new features coming with the redesign that will make it much more user friendly for everyone!
The design, new features, and changes are scheduled for completion right before the BACK to SCHOOL frenzy at the end of July.

As a **SNEAK PEEK** I am showing ya'll pictures of the new fonts, decorative elements and vinyl colors! The decorative elements take personalizing to a whole new level!

Cannot wait!

Hello Old Friends!

I must first say I am soooooo sorry for neglecting the blog! All I can say is the past couple of months for me and Monkey See Boutique have been B-U-S-Y! I have truly been blessed with wonderful customers and a ton of orders to fill. I have basically lived in my studio since early February filling orders for gifts and one holiday after another. Because of the orders...I have neglected the blog, tweeting, and facebooking and I feel horrible, but there are just not enough hours in the day...and orders come first :).

I am just thrilled about some of the new products that are coming to the website and some of them are already on there...but I will share a few with you before I go tonight and hopefully get them up in June!

Happy New Year!

I know I am a little late in telling all of you Happy New Year, but honestly where does the time go? After an amazingly successful holiday season, I took a couple of weeks off to have a little R&R with my family in North Texas. It was a wonderful getaway and I am now back in studio catching up on orders that where placed while I was out and trying to get all the new Valentine/Easter goodies designed and put up on the website! Trust me, it is no small undertaking and there are so many new fun products that I want them all myself!
I did manage to get an adorable new plate and bowl set on the website last night and updated the personalized t-shirt selections. Over the next couple of weeks, new products will be added almost daily. So check back often and I will try to blog about them, so you know when they are up.
I hope 2010 is treating everyone **GREAT** so far! Many blessings to all of you!
