1928

So this doesn't really have anything to do with the store but it's interesting none the less...

This past week Kevin was ripping up the carpet in our bedroom and found a newspaper from 1928!

The Burlington Daily News from Tuesday April 10th, 1928



Talking about the latest fashions



Big News- The French try to fly six people across the Atlantic!



Yachting was the "in" sport in 1928



There's also a hysterical Kotex ad that I'll have to remember to take a picture of tomorrow.

Back to Made Boutique & Gallery news next week!

Art Hop Artist Announced

So we've finally learned who will be showing their work at the store during Art Hop and for the month of September...drumroll please:

Marian Willmott is a monoprinter from Hinesburg, VT. Monoprinting is a painterly form of printmaking which Marian approachs in an exploratory manner, utilizing its immediacy and experimenting with ghosts and multiple layers.

Check out her work! http://www.willmottstudios.com/

Still not cooperating

So my camera still seems to hate me but I did manage to get 2 pictures of the new Amet & Sasha tops that are now in the store:





Guess you'll just have to stop by the store if you want to see any of the other cute stuff from Austin Craft Mafia's very own Amet & Sasha...

My camera is on the fritz!

Necklaces from Subsixstudios,


Doggies tees and totes from Joanne Kalisz,


and Knit hats and wrist cuffs from pH Knits



We also have chainmail rings back in stock! Check them out at Rapt in Maille, or in person at the store.
