Updates

What's New?

 

The biggest change here at my shop has been that my lovely talented sister, Casey, has joined the team. I've already listed some of her beaded jewelry on our shop. (See her necklaces here and her bracelets here.) She still has many more pieces of jewelry that haven't been listed yet (we will get that done once we're done with farmer's markets for this year, which brings me to the next update.)

We have been setting up booth at a local farmer's market in Kaysville, Utah. Anyone from Northern Utah, especially Davis County, be sure to stop by next Thursday, which will be our last day at the market! For our last week setting up a booth, we will be having a huge sale on both crocheted and beaded items! All crochet hats, gloves, and produce bags will be 40% off their regular price and all jewelry will be a whopping 50% off. We're so excited to be able to offer these fantastic sale prices to those who visit the market! Also available to those who come are coupons for 20% off an online purchase from us. For more info on the farmer's market (including when and where), see here. 

I'm working on finishing up some crochet patterns for scarves and hats. I will be needing pattern testers. If interested, please e-mail thequietkoala@gmail.com for more information. I will have an official call for testers here on the blog once I have some patterns finished and photographs of the finished products. 

Lots of Love,

Holiday Sale

Hello Again!!

The holidays have been CRAZY!! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

Now that the busy season is pretty much over, I'm going to recommit to posting in my blog more frequently! I have been keeping up with both my Facebook page and Twitter account, but for some reason creating blog posts seems harder and to take more time (but come to think of it, it really doesn't!) 

One more thing: I'm having a holiday sale! All of my Christmas items are marked down 35% so you don't need a coupon! Visit my shop to take advantage on there awesome deals that are only available until January 10, 2013! 

Here's the flier for the sale:

Get Exited!!!

I'm going to be adding something new to my Etsy shop soon!! (later tonight or tomorrow) I've been anticipating this for a while and now it's finally here! What is it you ask? Why I'll show you!

Yup. Crochet mustaches. How cute are these??? I'm in love. I'm going to keep making more in different colors (black, brown, white) before I put them on Etsy.

These ones are pins. But you can also request them as hair clips. And as soon as I figure out how to size the mustaches down and find rings to put them on I'm going to make mustache rings too! I'm so excited!!!!! :) I just can't get over how cute these mustaches are! I'm probably too excited about this....

Don't forget to visit my shop today for Christmas gifts! Today is the ABSOLUTE LAST day for the 15% off discount! Use the code CybMon15 to get the discount until midnight tonight! 

Update: the mustache pins are now available at my shop individually (here) or as a set of 3 (here).

New Christmas-themed Items!

Hi Readers!

I just added 3 new items to the shop. They are Christmas-themed pre-set color combinations of the Crochet Flower Hair Clips! I just love the Christmas colors! They are adorable. Unfortunately I don't have green available yet, but it will come soon in even more pre-set Christmas color combos! 

Here's the photos! Visit my shop here for more views and to see the rest of my shop.

This combo comes with 1 red, 1 black, and 1 white. You have a choice between two different kinds of red. This shows the sparkle red.

And this one shows the other red. 

This combo comes with 1 tan, 1 red, and 1 white. Again, you have two choices for the red. Here it is with the normal red.

And here is the sparkle red.

This is a set of 2. It comes with 1 red (either sparkle or not) and 1 white. Shown here is the sparkle red.

And here is the candy-cane inspired color combo with the other red.

I'm so excited to be finally getting Christmas stuff in my shop! More items will be coming soon! (Both Christmas and generic products.) Check back for updates on what will be coming next! And don't forget: use the coupon code BlackFri15 on Black Friday to get 15% off your order from my shop!

Etsy Shop Now Open!

Good Evening!

I have good news. My Etsy shop is now open! I don't have much available yet, but I will be working on building my shop inventory and finding new things to provide for you. Here's pictures of what I have available in my shop as of now:

The Treble Scarf (Pattern in previous post) 

Crochet flower clips (in set of 3 or individually)

Here's the back. It's all hand sewn onto the flower. 

Crochet bow clips (okay this pic is just the bows, just to show the color options) These come in set of 3 or individually

See? It's a hair clip. Hand sewn.

And the front of that looks like this. 

And last but not least, custom paintings for decor. The customer (you) chooses the color and word. These are custom made to order.

So come check out my shop! Click here or search for The Quiet Koala on Etsy.
