Well here it is a new year and I am ready to take it on.<br />
<br />
Trying to revamp my <a href="http://vintagemarketplace.etsy.com/">ETSY</a> shop. When I started this etsy shop in 2009 it started off with a bang. It was a constant stream of orders. I had clients that couldn't get enough of what I was making. I would spend all day in my studio with a new baby in his bouncy by my side.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

When his disability started to show, I had to put my shop on the back burner. And truthfully, I lost my drive. I hit that depression and had to realize my dream of a shop wasn't what I was called to do. Boy have I learned that lesson over the years. Yeah, it still hurts to look back but things happen for a reason and I love what I have learned. Realizing I can't do it all, I try to make when I can. Making things that I really love and can put time and detail into. <br />
Now I am only offering a limited amount of product.<br />
<br />

My paper pockets draw a lot of attention and emails so I am sticking with them as my top item I make. They combine my love of sewing and vintage in one.<br />
But I also love making small hand held clutch bags from vintage and reclaimed fabrics. So I am offering them in small amounts.<br />

<br />
The shop is small and just a few offerings are listed. I am trying to make less but pack a bigger punch with detail and style.<br />
<br />
Remembering that I don't have all day to sit in my studio and make.<br />
I am first a mom, a teacher, a wife then a maker.<br />
My schedule is full, from making sure everyone has food to eat, a dog to walk, me to walk, homeschool, errands to run, house to keep, appointments to make, time to read, and finding me time to crochet. <br />
It is a lot! Plus then trying to get in the studio and make. <br />
I am mom but I am also a maker. It is my way to relax and reboot. If I cant find time to do this then everyone suffers.<br />
<br />
Thank you all that have stuck with me since day one here on the blog and encouraging me to keep making, with kind comments or purchasing of my things.

Well I can't believe that I haven't blogged since September. To me that says that life has been too busy and full of fun to sit behind a computer.<br />
<br />
I have missed catching up with all of you out there so I hope to be able to make a few post in 2016.<br />
<br />
Happy New Year to all of you that may still be out there. I think blogging has become a thing of the past in this fast paced world of instant posting on IG and FB. <br />

I started this little blog in May of 2009 it seems like ages ago. I was a new mom, longing to connect with people. I made some amazing friends and it also ripped friends from my life. This month is a fresh slate. Removing all that was negative. Maybe that is why I havent blogged in ages too. I hated logging in and seeing feeds that I no longer wanted popping up. Thankfully I was able to fix that today by removing over 50 accounts from my feed. <br />
Keeping those that really care or have blogs that have a meaning. <br />

Things are going good here as we continue to homeschool, WOW what a difference it has made in all of our lives. Tucker the dog is now well on his way to becoming the boys service dog, and I am finally balancing motherhood, schoolteacher and crafting business woman...plus finding time for making new friends. <br />

Not only did I clean house on this little blog but in our life and home too.<br />
More on that to come for another January post.<br />

As you can see from this pic a few years ago.<br />
But in the last 2 years he lost his ability to eat normally and very bad food allergies developed.<br />
He lost his battle today.<br />

I will miss you. You gave me much comfort over the past 14 years. Always by my side when I battled sickness, recovery from surgeries and depression. He was so intelligent and had a meow that made you laugh. I will miss his mow wows at 5 am to feed him.<br />

This is our first week back in the swing of homeschool.<br />
We are excited to have found a community of homeschoolers.<br />
We will now have outings and classes along with like minded parents and children. <br />
<br />
This week we have been to orientation and found a mom with a son the same age as my boy, who also shares the same allergies and way of eating. And to put the cherry on top, they live right down the street from us. Finally able to bond with a family who gets it. <br />

We are so excited to start supplemental classes at the resource center. My boy will now have drama class, science, geography, and Polynesian studies. I especially love drama and polynesian studies since his dad was born in Hawaii. <br />
He will now bond with children like him and finally have friends to interact with. <br />

When we are not in classes or outings, we will be at home with set times and structured class at home. So far he is doing so good. Granted it has only been 2 days but he is really dedicated to learning and wanting to do work. It is really amazing to see the change in him and how the frustration has turned to happiness to learn. He wants to know what everything around him says. He is dying to learn more in reading. He has a disability with learning sounds and sounding out words so he memorizes everything. Everyday he sits and writes his words over and over as to learn the word and spelling of it.<br />
I am so proud of him. <br />

Well, when we are not schooling, which is about 10 pm at night, I get to sit and crochet. I just finished up this poncho. I am so in love with it. Again it needs to get cold out so I can actually wear it.<br />

People like to get their decor in order early and I like to get out of the studio by October and spend the season with my family.<br />
<br />
I usually sell out by the beginning of October and then I get a ton of requests to make things once November hits. Sorry folks, I make it early and when it is gone it is gone. <br />
<br />
Therefore my Christmas in July kick-off.<br />

Meet our new family memeber<br />
Tucker!!!<br />
<br />
We have been playing around with getting a dog for the boy for a long time. I just couldn't commit. With my allergies and never owning a dog, I knew it would be a lot to fall on me.<br />
But when we met Tucker it all changed.<br />
He is the sweetest boy ever.<br />
He doesn't bark, he doesn't nip or drool. He is super calm and super smart.<br />

The boy still has some issues with showing affection and recognizing an animal is even in the room. I am hoping it will all start to sink in that he needs to feed him, love him and play with him and become BFFs<br />

The goal of summer fun is happening, except for that stinkin' cold thing that hit us last week. That I could have done without. I am still trying to recover some energy...<br />

It is HOT here already 111* coming this week.<br />
<br />
To live and get through summer we are focusing on doing new things and finding fun.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The boy attended his first "CAMP" last week. Art Camp. It was a full week of learning about artists and doing their own versions of the famous works.<br />
It was a learning experience for me and my boy. While all the other moms got the freedom of kissing and dropping their kids off for 3 hrs, I was the only mom that had to stay and hover. When you have a child with special needs, no matter how much you want them to be part of the crowd, it becomes so apparent when you are in a camp full of typicals that your child is definitely not typical. Let me tell ya, those feelings of jealousy for the other families come roaring in and it takes ya down a rabbit hole. We had our ups and downs and it was a long week. But overall I am so glad we did it and that he really did learn some things, Like he can't stop talking about Andy Warhol. A big thank you to Mary Beth and Dave for having us to Art Camp. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
With this learning experience for the both of us, we are trying hard to get him into more and more activities to learn to be around others and how to socialize with others properly. And hopefully get him back to where he was a year ago before the public school system let us down. My boy used to be the first one in a room to say hello and make a friend. Now, it is hard to even get him in the room. Bullying and being treated differently by his old classmates and staff really took a toll.<br />

So I am always happy to find a new place for him to explore and find a bit of happiness. Yesterday we stumbled on to CAMP MACYS. We had to run to the mall to fix my hubbys watch and it was at just the time that Macys was hosting a "CAMP" for kids. Storytime around the campfire, arts and crafts, dance party, photo booth and prizes! all for free. He had a great time. And I loved the slogan ALL ARE WELCOME. It really made him feel he could be himself and fit in.<br />
<br />
With the slogan of our summer "SUMMER OF FUN" we will be traveling to Cali this July to take an art class with one of our all time fav Artists Paul Frank. I cannot wait to participate in this fun day of arts with my boy. It is a dream come true. <br />

My goal is to make summer go by fast and be one of the most memorable for him. <br />
<br />
Oh we are also into the Summer Reading program at our library. It is very disappointing this year. Sad to see they are really cutting corners and not doing any great activities or story related days. We always look forward to the summer reading program. I guess we will just make it fun for ourselves and set our own goals and activities. <br />

I am done making cacti for now and have moved on to making floral garlands. I have a huge stash of yarn from a previous project last year. It is yarn I don't usually work with and would not have a use for it in a typical project of mine. But it works great for brightly colored layered floral garlands. I should have this stash thinned in just a few days if I keep this up. I am thinking of bundling them and selling them in my etsy shop...totally fun bohemian summer decor. <br />
<br />
Well, this is the kick off to our summer and we have a big surprise coming later today. I have to get off this computer and get ready. <br />

We are all dreamers, some of us have bigger dreams than others. The dreams stay with us all day, everyday.<br />
<br />
I dreamed of this design the other night and couldn't get it out of my head til I made it. I forced myself into the studio and didn't come out until it was finished.<br />

Next up is the follow your dreams bag. Its still in the process of being made but I love how it is taking shape. Another great boho bag. I have used parts of a 1940s kimono with amazing pink feathered arrows on it for the main focus. I should have this one finished today. <br />
<br />
I think your bag should be a reflection of the person carrying it.

I am so excited about my Gypsy Pouch being included in Sew Somerset Magazine's June Issue.<br />
<br />
I have had so many dreams come true since dedicating my art to making these bags. I am in boutiques, had high fashion shoot editorials and now in a respected craft magazine. There really has been some pinch me I must be dreaming moments in the past year. For that I am grateful. Hard work really does come back 10 fold.<br />
<br />
To celebrate all my success with these one of kind, vintage fabrics and reclaimed fabrics bags. I am launching the Rock n Roll line today in my Vintagemarketplace.etsy.com shop. <br />
<br />
I am also giving one Custom made gyspy pouch backpack away for those that help spread the word. <br />

I feel it is so important to reuse and give new life to things that have we already have or have been given in life. Less waste, make some thing new out of something that was once loved and discarded. <br />
<br />
I call my bags Gypsy Pouches because of the materials I use have traveled for years around the country and have lived for decades with others gathering age and stories that we may not know but love them and give them a new story to tell and purpose. <br />
<br />They are like carrying an old pieced quilt in your hands. Soft, durable and made with love.<br />

These are just a few, from my rock n roll line, that will be in my Vintage<br />
marketplace.etsy.com shop on Monday.<br />
<br />
All my bags are handmade and hand embroidered from upcycled and reclaimed fabrics. Vintage denim jeans, vintage hankies, faux fur zipper pulls. I try to use only what I have or have been given.<br />
<br />
The bags are heavy duty with vintage brass zippers, lined, interfacing for shaping and inside pockets. <br />
<br />
They measure anywhere from 14 to 16 inches wide and 10 to 12 inches deep and can carry a full lifes worth of stuff. <br />
<br />
I sit and piece each one together like I am working a puzzle. Lots of love and thought go into each one.<br />
<br />
I am planning a lot more for summer, festivals and fleamarkets, concerts and hiking.<br />
Hands free pouches are coming.<br />
<br />
Stay tuned and follow me on Instagram for dibs on the new products.<br />
Follow me at @vintagemarketp<br />
<br />
If you are interested in a custom bag, made with your own pieces and memories sewn in, just let me know. I am working on a custom piece now for a vet from Detroit, to give his girlfriend of his Airforce memories and how it brought them together.<br />

For the last 6 months I have been dealing with a major hair disaster.<br />
I went to a very high end salon here in Downtown Las Vegas and the ruined my hair.<br />
It was badly bleached out and turned green then it began to fall off and turned into a big fuzzy ball of a mess.<br />
I tried conditioning, oiling and not washing it for weeks at a time.<br />
Nothing really worked.<br />
The only thing to do was to cut it all off.<br />
I was devastated.<br />
I have not had short hair in probably 16-17 years. <br />
I put it off. I kept it up and out of my way hoping it would bounce back.<br />
<br />
Last week I woke up and said enough, I can't look at it any longer and begged my hubby to take his clippers to it and shave it off. He asked me to sign a waiver before he picked up the clippers. <br />

I feel fresh, alive and so happy again. Hair always made me feel pretty. I know it is silly but it did. Funny thing is, now I feel beautiful and not that I think that I am, but the feeling of letting it all go and starting fresh makes me feel amazing.

This year is unfolding and teaching me to live again.<br />
<br />
Not to be scared and take more chances.<br />
<br />
As a SAHM of a child with special needs, you get lost and life becomes about everything else and you lose yourself and your dreams.<br />

<br />
I am realizing life goes by and things happen in the blink of an eye.<br />
<br />
Not saying "if I" or "I should have" instead I am saying lets do this and lets do that.<br />
<br />
Being my true self and taking time for me.<br />

In this journey, I decided to return to my first love...Vintage buying. I started when I was 18 working in rag houses in St. Louis and learning as much as I could about vintage clothing. I went through a lot of crap but learned a lot. I always dreamed of having my own shop, and why that may not be in the cards, I can open my own Online Shop. <a href="http://vintagemarketclothes.etsy.com/">Vintagemarketclothes.etsy.com </a><br />

I love the hunt for vintage, specifically 1970s, boho, southern rock, biker style. It was always poo pooed as a classic vintage style. Not lady like or you need to dress like a girl. Nope, that just ain't me. I have always been a true jeans and t-shirt gal with a little flannel thrown in. <br />
A rebel at heart.<br />
Slowly, I am finding vintage pieces that I love and sharing with others who are missing them in their true lives.<br />
And just for fun, I am throwing in some handmade fashions from vintage and embroidery on the rebel side.<br />

Life is ticking along here.<br />
Lots of the same of fighting doctors, schools, teachers but there is a bright spot ahead in all of this.<br />
Everything seems to becoming together in a flash that will make life so much better.<br />
More on that later.<br />

I am also making them in big kid and adult sizes with fun patches on them<br />
Very whimsical.<br />

At night I sit and work on this mega bulky crochet throw. It is soft and gorgeous and I only need one more skein to finish it. Perfect to curl up with since the house gets so cold at night in the living room<br />

I just finished this hat too ( forgive the pic but it was late and I wanted to prove I finished it) It gave me the worst headache to figure this pattern out.<br />
I had to frog it 4 times before I switched the hook and yarn gauge.<br />
I fell in love with it because it is so late1930's early 40's in style. It came out darling and I wish I lived in a cooler climate to actually wear it.<br />
But it was a challenge and I love a good challenge and to prove I can do it.<br />

One other primitive, victorian style door hanger for Valentines day and beyond. A pair of vintage leather gloves holding a love letter to place on your door knob or wall. <br />
<br />
All of these items are available in my etsy shop Vintagemarketplace.etsy.com or on my IG @vintagemarketp<br />
<br />
So I am still creating away and not blogging so much. If you are on Instagram please stop by. I post multiple times daily...its just faster and easier for me to keep up with.<br />
I miss blogging and checking in on my favorite bloggers but mom life has become very full and trying to relieve myself from unnecessary stresses.<br />
Blogging was the first to go. :(<br />
But I hope to be able to pop in once a month or so to update things.<br />
<br />
Happy 2015!<br />

Isn't it funny, Summer just officially started but I always think of the 4th as the hump and School is just around the corner...<br />
These next few weeks will go fast, as I have my niece coming for a visit and the boy booked in classes and courses of swimming and learning. Then boom shopping for school supplies will start :))))<br />
<br />
Hope all of you had a great 4th as well.<br />
<br />
Now to keep the celebration going, I am offering 20% off my entire ETSY shop vintagemarketplace.etsy.com<br />
Get yourself that gypsy clutch you have had your eye on or a great piece of vintage or maybe that summer dream catcher....loads of stuff to make you happy.<br />

Have you heard of<a href="http://sevenly.org/"> Sevenly</a>??<br />
Well it is a wonderful organization that produces cool goods to sell to raise awareness and money for great causes.<br />
This weeks cause is bringing awareness to Autism. Something near and dear to my heart.<br />
Water soothes and changes a child. Thanks to <a href="http://www.paskowitz.com/">Izzy Paskowitz</a> and his vision for getting kids out into the water he started <a href="http://surfershealing.org/">Surfers Healing</a>. So when you buy from Sevenly this week the money help goes to send a child with Autism to Surf Camp.<br />
These are two amazing organizations that are coming together to spread the word and change a lives for families affected by Autism.<br />

Please take a moment and go to<a href="http://sevenly.org/"> Sevenly</a> and help change the way the world sees Austism and give back just a little.<br />

I highly recommend you visit <a href="http://vimeo.com/70958326">Vimeo</a> and watch the Izzy Paskowitz story. I found this story just as our child was being labeled and I cried all day. I knew then I had to fight for my child. Today my child is now label free. Be the change a child needs. Spread the word. Do something.Vintage Market Placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05506584020887579178noreply@blogger.com2
