Lovin' the Lucha Section of Love Shine

NY Gift Fair Time...

So we are busy getting ready for the NY Gift Show at the Javits Center. It starts on Sunday and goes until Thursday. We dropped off some of the set-up display pieces today. Tomorrow we go back again with some more display items and some of our BAGS (as seen here on our walls)!

We also wanted to show some L-O-V-E


to our friend to Claudia (AKA "Claw Money") 'cause she just blogged us at http://blogue.us/2009/01/14/love-shine/

Maui... and Lisa

Maui - Mark's sister's cat - stayed with him for a couple of weeks during the holidays. He is missed...

This is Lisa - right before she was to head off for Austin, Texas. Hmmm... what a nice t-shirt.

Looking Back... An Oldie, but one of my (Richard) Faves!

Iggy's art work graced our windows in the late Fall of 2008. She makes wonderful pieces on glass.












She just got a special request for a glass necklace with a personal photo inside. Her process is complicated so it may not work... we DO hope so!

This is Iggy!

Beth & Ned's Excellent Adventure into Love Shine

So on Saturday, our friends Beth & Ned came by the store.
We had an excellent time chatting and listening to oldies like Kid Creole and the Coconuts. This dynamic duo was sooo charming and amusing as they danced around the Lucha Libre section.

Here is the Orange Spice Wilson purse Neddy is carrying. For photo-op purposes only.

Oh really?

A Close Up of Our Blue Fabric Box

So here are some of the oil cloth and cotton
print fabrics that we sell by the yard in
the store...

Kris...

our friend (and the designer behind our beloved Salvaged Sprites that we carry in the store) just bought this Day Bag with the Sugar Skull patch! What a bold fashion statement!
Ta -da! The Sugar Skull Courier Bags!
