Amazing New Product Lines

A couple months ago I participated in a group buy through a blog I belong to. The group buy was arranged so that if we bought in bulk we would receive a discount. I thought that these amazing pettiskirts would be a fun item to carry- especially for craft shows. This picture is similar to one of the pettiskirts I ordered. Mom's run this company called Miss Thing Boutique. They have amazing handmade pettiskirts. So of course I had to order a couple. The pettiskirt pictured is made from vintage lace--OH SO ROMANTIC! I am supposed to receive the pettiskirts this September and I can't wait to see them.
Another item I ran into while doing some research seems simply amazing. The Fairy Pixel is run by a former bow maker who now produces digital products! Simply amazing. As a bow maker she always wanted ribbons to match certain items or themes. Necessity being the mother of invention- she created digital images that can be transfered to ribbon! Needless to say I LOVE the idea. I am not sure this option is cost efficient. The reason that I say this is because you have to buy the images- then purchase blank ribbon and transfer paper- and ink cartridges for your computer. I think it is probably more costly than purchasing pre-printed ribbon. The catch is the item is almost exclusive- you will not see it for sale online, or in any stores. It is a copyright image and therefore for personal use and resale in a completed item. (so I can use it for my bows!) Not sure if I absolutely have to do this yet-- but I really like the concept. She also has a whole host of other digital products. One that I will be purchasing in late fall will be her Christmas greeting cards. You add you picture and words to her template, print and mail! Very unique and you can print as many as you need to send. You can even reuse it year after year, changing your words and pictures. SO smart. I think my next class at Yavapai College will have to be one on digital images- my photoshop class was okay, but obviously just the tip of the iceberg.
