Art Star Craft Bazaar // Philadelphia

My summer craft fair tour begins this weekend in Philadelphia. I'm setting up shop at the Art Star Craft Bazaar and I couldn't be more excited! Stop by booth #15, near the Chestnut Street entrance, to say hello and shop for your favorite Giant Dwarf + Secret Lovers handmade goods. See you there!

Fancy Flutter Suits are the newest addition to the Giant Dwarf catalog and will make their debut at the Art Star Craft Bazaar, then will hop right into my Etsy shop. These sweeties are super soft organic cotton onesies, from American Apparel, embellished with Fancy Felt + hand-covered buttons. So adorable!

The Stashette Satchel is a pretty + functional bag. I can't wait to make more of these!

Petit Clochette // Fancy Felt Prototype

Petit Clochette // Fancy Felt Prototype

I've been working on a Petit Clochette prototype made using only Fancy Felt. I'd love to start making these for weddings, but I'd like to integrate French netting in the design, as well, which I think would be absolutely lovely. They'd be completely customizable, as there are 60 colors of Fancy Felt to choose from. I'm still working out some issues, but I hope to have these available soon!

Jointed Papercut Bear // Mon Petit Fantome

A thoughtful surprise arrived today from Chad Merritt, one of the sweetest gents in the craft world. The lovely packaging, once opened, revealed a jointed silhouette bear creature, which I'm so thankful for!

Chad is the artist behind Mon Petite Fantome, who's amazing papercuts make my heart skip a beat. He also has a blog, where he shares some of his favorite things, as well as his art + music making. He's a fancy + talented lad, to say the least, and I'm thrilled to be in his good graces!
