You're Invited!

Lotus Blossom will be taking part in a benefit Artisan's Faire this coming Saturday.
10% of all sales will go to the Breast Cancer Resource Center in Santa Barbara.
If you're an Etsy fan, I've decided to further the occasion and will be donating 10% of all of my Etsy sales for the month of August to the center as well.

Christmas With The Kiddos



Cyra and Dylan were so excited on Christmas morning... they stopped in awe when they saw what Santa had done to the living room. They even took their time opening presents and checked out each and every gift (and thanks to Grandma Bert in Wyoming there were a lot of them) before moving on to the next one.
Dylan spent hours playing with his new toy train and Cyra couldn't get enough of her new princess vanity and ballerina jewelry box. Chan and I found an old table and refinished it with paint, some sand paper, rub ons and a cool new leaf knob. I made a slipcover for a little round storage ottoman and we finished it off with a beautiful mirror and silk ribbon. The look on her face Christmas morning was enough to make it all worth it...










As expected, they were pretty excited about their new 'SkullAsstic Ink' shirts as well. They have already had numerous washings and are holding up to the toddler test quite well! Dylan loves his and likes to wear it around the house (which is unusual, since he usually won't wear anything) - he says 'look at me mommy, I'm a pirate!' Cyra wears both of them and had a great time showing them off on Christmas day...
