Summertime Line-Up

The days are growing longer and the air is filled with summer heat. Camping, outdoor music festivals, and summer adventures are on the brain, along with summer colors and designs. Here's the latest from my last batch, going to some lucky fella.

Them Ol' U.S. Blues......

So I thought I'd start getting ready for our nation's birthday by making some stellar patriotic tie dye threads. You can find that they are all up for sale in the Etsy shop! www.twirlytoes.etsy.com

"...you can call this song........the United States Blues!....."

A little glimpse into the Dungeon

It isn't usually this tidy, but I just had my annual Official Dungeon Clean-up event. Like a good friend of mine recently told me, "You're not messy, you just have more important things to do than clean."

New Reviews!

I have been receiving raving product reviews left and right lately, and thought I should perhaps share them with everyone.

Word is gettin' out - Twirlytoes Tie Dyes are everywhere!

My new design - Stealie Face

Steal Your Face!

I thought I'd take a shot at making the very cool Grateful Dead Stealie Face skull.

I'd say the first attempt turned out pretty good....wouldn't you?

Hello Spring!

Things are starting to get a little bit crazy down in the tie dye dungeon these days. With more wholesale orders in the works for summer festival vendors, larger tapestry ideas, and new summer styles to play with, I am going to need a lot more time to get everything done! At least I've recruited my very handy home school buddy (my 9yr old daughter, Maz) to put in some elbow grease around the shop.

First Wholesale Order: FINISHED!

I am proud to announce the completion of my very first wholesale order. It took me two weeks to finish 39 shirts along with all of the other orders that have been coming in from my Etsy shop. It makes you feel kinda fuzzy to see all those tie dyes stacked up together, doesn't it?

Business is Picking Up!

Well, I am officially really really busy. My Etsy shop is a bustling marketplace of tie dye craziness with orders coming in every day now. I just got my first wholesale order for almost 40 shirts and the holiday shopping season has just begun!

In the works: Landscape Tapestries, more lotus blossoms (you can never have too many of these), and organic baby stuffs.

Fennville Goose Festival ~ October 9, 10, & 11 2009

Come see me during this year's Fennville Goose Festival! My booth will be part of the craft show taking place in the Fennville Middle School gym building. Doors open on Saturday, Oct. 10 at 9-4. The show continues on Sunday from noon-4.

Thanks to my handy husband and crafty mother-in-law, I will have a beautiful display set up for all to see. Hope to see you there!

Twirlytoes Wearable Art, LLC.

I created this page to keep people informed about what's going on in my Tie Dye endeavors. New designs will be posted here as well as a list of craft shows coming up where you can find me. Eventually there will be more information about the process of tie dying and perhaps some step-by-step instructions and tips to help you get started making your own!

As always, most of my items are for sale in my Etsy shop. Take a look! twirlytoes.etsy.com
