Agnes Welcomes You...

Be what you would seem to be -- or, if you'd like it put more simply -- Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.~The Duchess

A Moment Of Silence Please...

So when I first started making baubles my mom told me it was a terrible idea to name each one like a pet because "it's like naming a chicken you know you're going to kill and eat later".  Now...while I'm sure that none you Agnes customers are consuming your baubles (dude, go to a doctor like now) it still makes me pout a little when one of my favorites sells.  So now, without further adieu...I give you...my recent favorites that just went to good homes:

The Fox & The Horn

Hippocampus

Stag
Don't miss out on your favorite!!

Fall & Winter Agnes Love

We had an unusually warm Fall here in ole' Portland (make even one Portlandia joke and I will gladly fantasize about poking you in the eyeball).  We had a glorious September and even October so I took advantage of it with a fun little sunset photoshoot.  Once again, my little daughter Emily proved to be the best model ever.  Enjoy!

Agnes @ Renegade LA!

Hey!  Looky!  Looky!  I was a big kid & went to LA to sell at the incomparable Renegade Craft Fair.  It was awesome.  In addition to feeling like a grown up I also learned some things:

1. I like driving...Alex does not
2. I do not like walking through Skid Row in ballerina flats...or at all really
3. They sell little baby turtles at convenience stores in Chinatown.

And this stuff happened too....
Not letting me drive...
Our lovely booth partners, 3rd Season Designs
The Agnes Booth!
Renegade Tents y'all
Agnes + Alex
Happy customer!

It's Official...I am a terrible blogger

Can you even call yourself a blogger if you haven't done it for a year?  No?  Yeah, I figured. WELL I'M SORRY OK. I had....stuff...happen...or whatever.  Soooo now I'm gonna play catch up and post a bunch of stuff that already happened so I feel better about myself.  It's all about internal lies, really.  I'm ok with it.

To make this less lame, I promise to add something new for every old thing I post.  So there's that.

This is new:

OMG NEW BUSINESS CARDS

Have I mentioned before that I have an awesome friend who happens to be a letterpress printer? I'm pretty sure I have. Well anyhoo, her name is Allison & she is the talented proprietor of Lettuce Press. We will be neighbors at Crafty Wonderland this year & have happily become joined at the hip as giggly little craft companions at her printing studio in Portland.

Now, I've been toying with the idea of printing some nifty Agnes cards via her RIDICULOUS presses. They're big & shiny & clunky & have cool names (Hetty & Bib). <3

A few weeks back Allison & I were brainstorming on what an "Agnes" printed card would look like. My ideas were MEH...then she was like "what about a doily" and I was all like LIGHTBULB let's do some lace. And she was all like YES, and I was all like THIS IS GONNA BE GOOD.
AND IT WAS GOOD.
Behold, the Agnes card. Props to Lettuce Press!!! Have her print all your cards/invites/prints & whatever because she's awesome at it. She's also doing a calender. Which will be sold at Crafty. That you can buy. Do it.
