Car seat tents are perfect to keep the sun, rain or cold wind out of babies face. Much more versatile than the standard canopy, and oh so cute!

Here is one example {car seat and baby not included}:

Christmas Cards or Bust!!

So, it's that time again. Time to start stressing out over what to do for Christmas cards. Some of you may say that it's only the beginning of November, but for me, I'm already behind. It takes me forever to decide on the pictures to use, the design to go with and so on and so on. Amazingly enough, we have already had our "Christmas" pictures taken and I think I have narrowed it down. If only my husband would stop having an opinion, my life would be a lot easier.

Usually, I have my fabulously, computer-saavy sister design my cards, but since she now has a one-week old baby along with her two, wild & crazy boys, I don't think she is really going to have the time. With all that being said, I turned to Shutterfly. I think half the Christmas cards that I received last year were from Shutterfly, so I checked it out, http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/christmas-cards. Let me tell you, they have some great designs! I'm super excited about my cards this year. Plus, I will definitely be saving my sister the headache of having to deal with my crazy, perfectionism, is that even a word? Oh well, it works for me. I would show you what I'm leaning towards, but then what would be the point in sending out the cards!

I think I have even convinced my sister that it would be just as easy to use Shutterfly for her Christmas cards and her baby announcements. Shutterfly has a great selection of birth announcements too; http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/birth-announcements. Besides, what card wouldn't be adorable with my precious little niece on it?!

I am so excited about Shutterfly's website and all of the great things on there, I am even thinking about ordering calendars; http://www.shutterfly.com/calendars, with my sweet & sassy, little Miss's picture ALL over it. What grandparent wouldn't like that, right?

Be on the lookout for my fabulous Christmas cards in your mail and with the help of Shutterfly, that might happen before the week of Christmas. Yeah!!

Marble Falls Market Day

For all of you who visited the AllyOop booth in Marble Falls, thank you so much! We had such a great time on our first venture outside of Katy. What a wonderful, little town!

We will be posting some new photos of items that we have added to our shop very soon. If you are looking for something that you saw at Market Day and don't see it, just shoot us a quick email and we would be glad to help you.

Again, thank you so much to all of our wonderful customers!!

2nd Craft Show

Well, we thought we'd go ahead and give this craft show business another try. If you missed us at the Heart of Katy Craft Show, we will be at Cimarron Elementary on March 6th from 10:00am-3:00pm. The address is 1100 S. Peek Rd, Katy, Texas 77450. We hope to see you all there!

Whew!!!

After all that planning and prep work {by Beth and Stephanie}, they can now say that they have their first show under their belt! Does that mean that they are now "old pros"?

It was a great first show for them. Not terribly busy like the fall one is supposed to be, or some of the others I can think of for that matter, and therefore a great intro to the craft show world.

Thanks to everyone who came out to show your support and welcome to all our new customers that we got to meet!! We look forward to seeing you all again!

First Craft Show!!

Don't worry if you missed us today, we will be at Katy High School in the gym again tomorrow from 12-5. Here is a little taste of what you are likely to see.

Didn't they do an awesome job on setup?

Capes!!

Lots of photo blocks to choose from.

Stephanie hard at work.

The two creative ones, Beth and Stephanie.

Sisters. They let me crash their party for the day!

Bling, Bling!!

Another addition Stephanie brings are the uber cute BLING pendants. Which I quickly fell in love with during the show. I am pretty certain I need an entire collection now... but I digress! Here are some examples!

Customize yours with a picture of your child(ren), someone special or even your pet(s)!

Or wear a decorative design, initials, or cute phrase!

And lots more to chose from, including your favorite college, high school or professional team!!

Photo Blocks

Stephanie has recently joined forces with us {as if I were one of the creative ones} to add cute new items to AllyOop - Photo Blocks.

Below are just a few of the ENDLESS options available.

The different sizes - Large, Medium, Small and decorative tiny

Aren't they adorable? Want to see one in action?

{I might be a little bias, but those are some cute models!!}

Come One, Come All

Here are the craft show details you have been patiently waiting for!

The Heart of Katy Craft Show

Has AllyOop Gone AWOL?

Kind of. But for good reason!! During the month of December, I was making Christmas presents for family and keeping up with the Christmas present demand from my amazing customers.

And so far this month, I have been scrambling to try and prepare for my first ever CRAFT SHOW February 6 and 7 - The Heart of Katy Craft Show!!! Stay tuned for details!
