back in action.

hello, blog world. i've been a busy bear these past few weeks, but i haven't posted any pictures to show the fruit of my hair accessories-making labor. so this is going to be a super giant mega picture post! hooray!

i got to go to nashville this past weekend to visit some of my best friends. i miss them dearly, and i miss living in nashville. i think a little piece of my heart will always be there. i went to the flea market and found some wonderful vintage pieces that i can't wait to put to use! oh, and my friend steve decided to model all the finished products i brought with me:

(it might be hard to tell, but he has three or four headbands and just as many clips. steve writes jingles, and my greatest hope is that a hair treasures jingle will be coming my way soon!)

my wonderful friend beth is also in the process of designing a hair treasures logo! she is so talented and creative, and i am honored to have her be a part of this with me. as soon as we have a finished product, the blog, business cards, and everything else will have a little makeover. can't wait to show it off!

ok, here are all of the things that have kept me living under a rock for the past few weeks (some, but not all, of these are available in my etsy store. all of them will be in there soon!):

it's all happening.

i finally delivered the goods to AH Collections, and i am so happy to say that six of my designs will be for sale at the location in Carmel, IN and Geist, IN. they are not available in the online store, but if you happen to live in the area, you should stop by! i bought some adorable bronze-colored pearl earrings there last night. hooray!

i had another fun moment this week when a girl from scotland ordered four of my headbands on etsy. i'm so excited that my treasures are going overseas, especially because i have been to her city. i spent a few days in edinburgh during a study abroad program in january of 2004. crazy! her name is claira, and she has an great etsy shop called the koru branch full of sweet vintage items. go look!
