new skirts at g. willikers!





i spent yesterday afternoon making a few skirts for  g. williker's . 

these skirts are easy and fun to wear, no matter the season. they are so cute over jeans or just alone with sandals! i started making skirts for my niece when she was about two years old, and she still wears them now at 6 1/2.  they just go from maxi to mini!

if you're in the portsmouth area, check them out!

sheafe street books







sheafe street books in portsmouth, nh can be hard to find, but it is definitely worth looking for!  sheafe street lies between state street and daniel street, a block from the piscataqua river.  about half way down you'll find this cozy, charming and comfortable book shop located right in the owner's home. kenny has a great selection of contemporary as well as very old and hard-to-find titles. stop in and make sure you meet shop cat petunia, who has the most gorgeous aqua colored eyes, and maybe kenny will tell you what he's cooking up for supper in the next room!
