Have I ever mentioned that I just can't say "No"......

I have a really hard time saying No. I want to help and be everything to everybody. It's a character flaw, I know. :) So when I got an email from a super sweet woman who is opening up a small 'boutique within a boutique' in Wisconsin and wanted some of my SLDs for her shop...well, how could I say No? :)

She will be featuring a bunch of handmade and upcycled kids clothing items. I am really excited for her! It's been a dream of hers and I can't wait to hear what kind of response she gets to upcycled items in the non etsy world! Wow, real life world of shopping, does that actually exist offline? ;)

So she ordered 30 items. Yup, you read that right. But she's so nice, she let me get away with just 17. :) And today, I am tagging, packing and shipping off 17 dresses, skirts and tees! It's actually really cool to see a BUNCH of SLDs all hanging together. I never have this many made all at once!

Here are a few of my favorite dresses in the bunch....
