Purse, Purses, & More Purses, Oh My!

I have just added several purses to my Etsy shop, Lady of Grace Designs & I thought I would share some photos with you. All of the bags are reversible, washable, & stuffable with all of your favorite things. These are more than just purses, these are multi-purpose bags, a great way to extend the life of a bag, so that when it no longer suits one function such as a purse, it can be a beach bag, a tote for going to the library, a crafting bag for those of us who like to take our current projects with us, even as a diaper bag for the moms & grandmas out there.

I hope everyone has a lovely 4th of July & God bless.

What Have I Been Up To Lately?

Creating THIS: A Revolutionary War Regimental Coat that I have added as a custom listing in my Etsy shop, Lady Of Grace Designs. Have a lovely weekend, Sarah Grace

Hello all, I have had an Etsy account www.ladyofgracedesigns.etsy.com for almost a year now, but have never blogged about it. The shop will be getting many new items soon, but for now there are only a handful. It is my goal to reach 50 items within the next several months, but life does tend to interrupt my plans. I have been working on Revolutionary War & War of 1812 items along with my preparations for the Ottawa First Fridays. My store room will soon (I pray) be filled with a plethora of purses, scarves, ties, fabric jewelry, baby items, sun dresses, & far too many other things to list. I hope everyone has a wonderful week & God bless, Sarah Grace

Ottawa First Fridays

I simply love farmer's markets for the wonderful produce, homemade baked goods, & jams & preserves that I can find for a fraction of the store cost. And it was grown local. So when I found that a nearby town would be having a farmer's market that welcomes anyone selling produce or handmade items, I was thrilled. Ottawa, Ohio will be hosting First Fridays, a farmer's market with added attractions for all ages, on June 7th, August 2nd, September 6th, & October 4th. If you are in the area, come out & take a look at all the beautiful & tasty things to buy God bless, Sarah Grace

American Duchess Giveaway

American Duchess, a creator of scrumptious historic footwear, is hosting a giveaway of her Gibson Edwardian Shoes, which happen to be from one of my favorite times in fashion history. If you, like me would like a chance to win such perfect shoes, head over to http://www.americanduchess.blogspot.com for an opportunity at these wardrobe must haves (though I wouldn't mind winning them myself!). God bless, Sarah Grace

True Blue Too

My sincerest apologies for not putting this post up sooner. My grandfather was in the hospital for a couple weeks from gall bladder surgery & when he did finally come home, my mother & I took turns staying with him. He is now back on his feet & capable of doing most things by himself. Besides everything that is going on with my grandfather, I am in the process of starting up my own sewing business. As my first venture into the world of sales, I am tackling a three day bicentennial reenactment, where the expected crowds could reach upwards of 2,000. Please pray for me that I will be able to complete everything on time & without going bonckers. Needless to say, life has been quite frazzled & confused. So, without further ado, here is the second half of True Blue.
