New adVentures in Pike Place Market!

A store that I currently sell at, Ventures, which is location in Pioneer Square is relocating into Pike Place Market! Pioneer Square is already a huge tourist attraction but the store operators felt that they were located if a slighly off the radar for more foot traffic.

With this new move, the wonderful staff at Ventures advised me to make more inventory and be ready to produce purses since I've been doing steadily well at the current location. New and exciting sewing adventures await as the summer continues.

See you all at the Market this fall!

Handcrafted, just for you

A new collection came to mind since working at Starbucks. So many gift cards are tossed daily and I began collecting them to make a collection out of them. As the wheels in my head turned for ideas, I decided to line the bags with the green aprons baristas wear. However, that turned into another dilemma because I don't have much access to the aprons to continue making the purses as with the gift cards. That idea quickly was shut down until recently, when my store manager requested an iPad bag for her new toy. Not really feeling her as a Formal collection kind of girl, I suggested the idea of the Starbucks gift card bag. Upon receiving confirmation that she loved the idea, I am moving forward with the limited collection titled the WaShu SB collections since that is the name of our Starbucks location.

Farewell, my sweet!

After about a year of having my purses living along side the sweet creations of CakeSpy, we have decided to part ways. I do love the cute little pink cupcakes that owner, Jessie, makes and sells but customers didn't seem to have a sweet tooth for Trizanh.

It was a great opportunity to have the exposure with such an establish artist and business owner. I'll find my way back to Capitol Hill soon enough!
