Girl’s World on Petite Purls!

See what the lovely Allegra of Petite Purls has to say about Girl’s World!

Allegra says, “I absolutely love the presentation of the book as well as the photos. This book is absolutely a must-have for those who sew for those who love tea parties, dress-up and everything else a little girl dreams of.”… We love the idea of a little tea party, dress up, and Girl’s World! Does it get sweeter than that?

We are so excited to be featured on this special blog!


I’ll do anything!

So I ordered 8 magnets from Vista Print and now have a fleet of cars!!!  Even in Atlanta  If you see the car in Atlanta let us know you could win something.!!!!!! The kids have been getting questions and people want to know if that’s my car..Why yes that is my car…Can I help you???? 🙂

Flickr Goodness!

Flickr is our breath of fresh air… our morning coffee… That first day of Summer… It’s what keeps us going, keeps us fresh, keeps us inspired!! Thank you to everyone who posts such beautiful material on Flickr that we can enjoy from our homes!

Today we’d love to feature this fabulously special Gem. It’s of a Sis Boom fan, Austin, bringing George the Puppy to life! How’s this for summing up Girl’s World!?! We love that Moms & Dads can make all of the projects while their little Girls watch on, but to see a little girl creating something on her own it is just so awesome!!!

There is a whole group of talented, adorable, wonderful little girls who made their own version of George.. check them ALL out HERE!!!
