Pastel Animals and Such

It seems like my summer just rolled on getting busier and busier... I guess gearing up for back to school and fall.  Going full swing into September.  So here is all that you've missed. 

Urban Handmade and Indigenous are now carrying the new OLIVE Handbag Line!! Both stores have a small sampling of these bags so you can see just what a pillowcase transformed into a handbag looks like.  Also, both stored have recieved some new versions of the classic Cassandra Donovann Handbags.  These stores are ran by some amazing people so please go out and support local businesses!

Etsy has a new Cassandra Donovann Handbag series up as well to get you ready for the Fall.  I know it still seems like summer, but football, chili cook offs, sweatshirts, and fall inspired handbags are about to be seen in full force.  Take a look...

The Littlest Olive Dress

Up until now I have made my pillow case dresses to match the size of the pillow case.  These longer dresses will be perfect for taller girl, older girls, or for some to grow into.  But today I switch and made two of the Littlest Olive Dress to date.

 I have to thank Liz for this, as she not only requested the smaller dress be made, she has inspired a new twist to the Olive line.  If you are buy a Pillow Case Dress, I will also Donate another Pillow Case dress to the Little Dresses for Africa.  What better way to teach your kids about the gift of giving than to start now?! 

More details to come and as of now the dresses will be sold exclusively on Etsy.  But for now... here are two of the sweetest dresses I've made. 

The color is a washed out red...almost a maroon color.

True Red Pillow Case with Yellow Ric Rac.

 

  The OLIVE bag (under my Cassandra Donovann title) is the beginning of a partnership between my Cassandra Donovann craft and Little Dresses for Africa. Little Dresses for Africa is a non-profit organization which distributes dresses made out of pillow cases through orphanages, churches and schools in Africa. So how this works...Cassandra Donovann will be donating one pillow case dress to Little Dresses for Africa for each OLIVE pillow case bag you purchase.  The bag is made of of a pillow case as is the dress, linking the two together. 

Each bag is still unique and one of a kind...just different than my other bags seen as how you get to also dress a child.  I can't tell you how excited I am to partner with Little Dresses for Africa.  

For more information just click the OLIVE tab above.  Here's a look at some of the Olive Pillow Case bags now for sale.

Go Green Placemats

I just got back from vacation with the family!  My little niece and nephew were there (ages 2 and 4) always looking for things to do.  So, knowing we'd be going out to eat and trying to enjoy each others company on the back porch I made them a "p-prize" as they would say.  

The reversible, reusable place mats!! This double sided place mat is 18" x12". One side is an easy to clean oil cloth print.  While the other is a Chalkboard.  You can roll up this and take it anywhere and there is a coordinating zipper pencil case to go with it.  I'm now taking orders.  The pouch may differ but will still coordinate with the teal stripes or red cherries.  For the next two weeks they will be only $20 plus cost to ship.  

Please let me know how many and where you'd like them sent! They will make great gifts or surprises for the little ones.  They got mine as we were sitting down at a dinner out on the town.  We wiped off the drawing with a napkin and flipped the place mat over when the food arrived.  

Etsy

I have continued to post new products online through Etsy.  A few of the bags are very geometric and bright.  They turned out to be a bright, bold statement, which some of you I know like to make.  I've been spending a lot of time working on a new line to launch hopefully by the first of August so please check back with me then!  So for the next few weeks, shop Etsy, swim, and try not to sweat through every shirt.

Summer Goal

My goal this summer was to post more here and on Etsy.  So I'm doing a post here for Etsy.  I Have a BRIGHT SUMMER Series now available online.  Check out my store and let me know if you have questions.  And happy belated 4th of July!!

NEW STORE!!!!

Cassandra Donovann is now in a new store, This and That Gift Gallery in Carrboro, NC. I am really excited to be apart of this store.  It has a great feel to it, unique items, and the owners seem to be wonderful people. It is right downtown Carrboro so stop on in if you are anywhere close by.  I don't think you'll be disappointed.  As for my stuff, here are a few photos of what Cassandra Donovann is offering now at This and That.  (For more information on any store check out the link on the left of where my bags are sold.)
