Santa and me
Santa's List
1. Pretty Pockets All Purpose Apron
In our family I was gifted with the sewing gene and my sister Ki was gifted with the vintage junking gene. One day we brainstormed on how to put our two talents together. Crack, Snap, Pop,! The pretty pockets all purpose apron was born. We showcased the apron at Ki's annual Junk Bonanza 2010 show. With all the different uses (gardening, concession stand use, garage sales, crafting, and flea marketing to name a few) the aprons were a HUGE success and sold out within the first day of the sale. Fast Forward....Santa's Elf Karla has been busily sewing away so Santa's Helper Ki could put it back on Santa's list and offer them for sale on her website for holiday gift giving.
2. Shopping cart liner
Last year Santa's Helper Ki had a lot of recycled burlap " toy" (coffee bean) bags left after the Christmas deliveries. Once again Ki and I put our sewing and junking genes together and created a shopping cart liner for those "shop a holics" of garage sales and flea markets. Santa's Elf Karla got busy sewing and Santa's Helper Ki was able to list them on Santa's list and offer them on her website. To check out other cool "junking gifts" that are on Santa's list go to the Junk Revolution Store.

How cute! I've got a love/hate relationship with aprons. Love 'em! Look dumpy in them! Collect them, never wear them...in disgust, sell them! These are wonderful and would be worth trying out!
ReplyDeleteKarla - your new header is outrageously gorgeous!!! And I'm heading for an apron right now!!!

ReplyDeleteI bought one of your lovely aprons when I visited the Idea House in Nov. then enjoyed wearing it at my last show of the year. You do such a great job mixing fabrics and trims, I had a hard time deciding which one to take home.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
