Tulle skirts fun

Yesterday, I snapped a few shoots of the new tulle skirts I made for the SHOP, enjoying some of the last hot summer days of this year.









It always makes me smile when my oldest, after I take a few pics says: " Can you take the pics of me jumping?" Ever since my friend, Piki took some professional pics of her jumping for my poor neglected website (and to follow is the evidence...she had only 4 years and it was 6 years ago), she is obsessed with jumping on the pics.

Summer dresses and summer sale

The school is over and we are preparing for summer Holidays, as we are going in a few days to Italy:)

In the meantime I've been sewing up a storm, trying to leave the shop loaded and preparing some stuff for friends and family.















And taking about summer and Holidays, we are doing a big Mim-pi summer sale in the shop, but on the blog as well, so it may be a great chance for you to order some stylish stuff for the special girls in your life.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Katarina

Barely

Hi everyone!!!:)I am barely alive and managing to deal with the things in my life recently. So many things all together. And especially this new shop venture. But on the other hand it brings a lot of joy as well.



Here are some of the pics within the shop we made recently.....

The opening

We will open the shop's door today. YAY!!! It will not going to be anything official and big yet, but we are hope to be able to make soon something like that as well;)



This the old chair we bought, made the patchwork fabric and fabric covered buttons and remodelled it. I adore the look. It was inspired with the fantastic squint furniture.



Bambi notebook coming with the pencil is made with 100% recycled and biodegradable paper, it is available for purchase in the store and soon in my etsy Iwannabe shop too, for international shoppers.

And here are some more pics of the shop, including Mim-pi collection.




The address is:
Brace Jugovica 2a
Belgrade
shop is open 10-20 h during the week, Saturday 10-16h

Hope to see you there:)
Again, here is the same post in Serbian, at WannaBe and Toy blog

The shop

As mentioned and shown a few times before, the WannaBe&Toy shop is slowly coming to life. It's been a total madness for a last few weeks here, trying to manage things between decorating and filling the shop with stuff.(not to mention my family and work activities;)
But, the opening of the shop is so close now and it will start working sometimes during the next week, but I will let you know;)



I have opened the blog that will be dedicated only to the shop and will be written in Serbian, but I will post the most important things here as well.



So, here are some pics I took since the beginning.....so you can have some before and after ideas of it.

Hope you like it:)
Have a wonderful and sunny weekend,

In 2011.

We are back home and ready to move on:)
We had a wonderful New Years eve, being blessed to share those moments with my DH's family in Italy.





Just like the last year, for me it is both hard and joyful to start the New Year, thinking about what it will bring.
I hope that it will bring happiness, wealth and peace not only to me and my family, but to everyone in this world. I also hope that I will be able to fulfill some ideas, dreams and plans for this year too.




And for the start, it is so great to know that some things, planned 2 years ago are slowly but certainly coming to life.
My best friend is finally opening the shop. The name is WannaBe and Toy, as we decided to share the things for the little ones that will not only be clothes, but toys too. The shop is quite big and as I will not be able to cover all the clothing corner, we decided to import one of my favorite European kids brands, which is Mim-Pi.
We already ordered the new spring/summer collection (sizes 4-10 years) and it is coming in February. How great is that?
We are planning a big opening on March 1st, but you will be informed and invited, of course:)



I am working on my first own collection too (I had the name "Capri" in mind for this first collection for such a long time) and hope to share some sneak peeks here soon.
I will be using mainly Tanya Whelan's fabrics, so it will be whimsy and girly with a shabby chic vintage twist.

Happy New Year again!!!
