Spring is here!

Spring has finally arrived in NH and even though today is cold, we still have lots of flowering plants and sunny skies. The hummingbirds are back at my feeder and we even have a pair of scarlet tanagers nesting in our tree outside! And I've been busy stocking up my shop! The products in the shop are reflecting the bright colors of spring! :) Come check out what's new at Trinkets!

The Weekend and a Giveaway!

What a beautiful weekend - I spent a lot of time outside enjoying the green grass and cookouts and being treated like a queen for Mother's Day! My daughter rubbed my feet and gave me a pedicure. Doesn't get much better than that. I also got to watch the birds - particularly the hummingbirds and orioles and watch my cats climb the trees and chase chipmunks. Life is good! :)

Enter to win a fabulous neon giveaway over at Knitty Bitties! Andrea has put together a great prize package featuring a bundle of goodies including some of my flowers and a cute birdie sachet! Check it out here: Knitty Bitties

Adorable Projects!

Hey Everyone -
Just wanted to show you some pictures of adorable creations that some of my Trinkets' customers sent me recently. Each uses Trinkets' flowers in creative fun ways. Check out what one of my favorite customers, Maria, has made!
This is her beautiful daughter modeling things she sews. She then adds some of my flowers for decoration.

Check out her adorable Etsy store Ri Lala and her Ri Lala Webshop Shop Ri Lala .
Maria lives in Hawaii and I'm jealous! And she is the sweetest! Another of my customers also lives in Hawaii and she created this beautiful dress adorned with one of my bird appliques. Her name is Desiree and she has a gorgeous Etsy shop called Palm Tree Princess . Her shop is colorful and filled with more yummy goodness!


And here's some things that another great customer made - Monica used a flower to be the "O" in the word Home on these cute blocks she decorated. She also made this bag. Very creative, isn't it? Here's a link to Monica's blog: CC Vinyl . I love seeing these projects! Thanks to everyone who sent them in - send me more and I'll post them! :)


Oh! Before I forget - just wanted to show you another project I created for Say It With Letters! with some of their spring shapes.
I did the word "bloom" and I love the bright cheery way it came out! I added some of my Trinkets' flowers to these, too! Go check out Say It With Letters! for some fun of your own!
