As Seen on TV

What is life?

I woke up today and got ready to be in your television screens….so strange….

I just couldn’t have dreamed that I would ever be on TV……I didn’t even want to share with anyone leading up to the day, but yesterday, I figured I should probably say something…..at least to my Facebook friends, right?

I mean, if I was going to go to the trouble of getting ready and traveling to the studio in Green Bay, I should probably have one or two people watching, no?

I packed up the good ol’ all-terrain wagon with some LadyBeez Designs goodness and headed in…

Friends, I guarantee you, if Millaine Wells & Lisa Malak weren’t just the nicest, sweetest, most genuine hosts on the whole entire planet, you may have seen me toss my cookies all over that table…..in fact, the whole studio team was so welcoming and friendly! They really made the my entire experience effortless and easy.

For those that may have missed it, WFRV posted the entire segment on their website:

LadyBeez Designs: Fun. Fashionable. Unique. Handmade clothing from Oshkosh

Now, if I’m being honest, it still took me about 3 hours post-segment to have a normal heart rate, but I’m not sure if that was nerves, adrenaline, or relief. Whatever it was, I’m so glad I did it.

To all of you NEW to my business and my little corner of the world, WELCOME! I’m so happy to have you here!

To all of my dear friends and family that made me feel SO overwhelmingly LOVED today with all of your messages , texts, and comments…..GGGAAAAHHHHH!!!!! I cannot even begin to describe how much your support means to me.

I LOVE YOU ALL from your Head to your BUMS!

Now, who needs some FUNdeez????!?!!??

Million Baby Chicks Hoodie…with A POCKET!

ladybeezdesignsLeave a comment

It’s Fall….and where I live in Wisconsin, you know what that means: HOODIE WEATHER!

I love every season….and here in Wisconsin, sometimes we get to experience all 4 in one day! Aren’t we lucky!?!?!

After a beautiful summer, though, I love the transition to cozy, comfy long sleeve clothes….and now, by far, my most popular make for women is: THE MILLION BABY CHICKS Hoodie! You can read more about it’s origins here….

I get bored easily, so my favorite thing about this design is being to mix & match fabrics to make One of a Kind creations.

This week, I’m auctioning off a new batch at Red Rose Auction House. Today is the last day to get in on these deals, because once the auction is over, I will be listing them at retail price in my Etsy Shop.

NEW with this batch, on the suggestion of one of my dearest friends: POCKETS! Not just little pockets, though: ONE large Pocket with a singular opening!

Here’s what’s HOT of the MACHINE:

THIS OOAK MEDIUM:

and it’s MEDIUM Hoodie from anutha Motha! (same two main fabrics….just different placement!

This LARGE BEAUTY that gives me all the Fall Feels:

This X-LARGE seems to be pretty popular….Get it while you can!

and this WILD 2XL

Don’t Forget to check out the Other Vendors’ Items too…..

HAPPY BIDDING!!!!

Kicking off THE BEST MONTH of the year…I always like to do a giveaway of some sort, so I was so excited when my auction friends were doing a big LOOP giveaway as well!

Of course, I can never sew something this adorable without one of my girls commandeering it….so guess who claimed the “sample”

Miss Sassafras, herself: Georgia.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised at the poses she gives me by now…but she still makes me laugh every time.

May Sales & Auctions

november cover (4)

I was super excited to see that the Auction House and Sales group I had been participating in a few months back is ALSO jumping back into running again!

In case this is the first you’ve heard of this, you can find RED ROSE AUCTION HOUSE HERE and the FLASH SALE ART BOX MARKET GROUP HERE

I’m not exactly sure what I will be selling and auctioning yet…but I definitely want to try.

Any chance you are looking to buy some handmade goodies?

And, IF SO, would you be willing to let me know what you’d be interested in shopping for?  This is always the hard part of my business. I only have so much time/supplies to design and create the items I sell…..

Now, it is very apparent I have less time…and even MORE limited supplies.

So….Help a girl out!

Let me know what you’d be interested in seeing!

Here are a few ideas:

  • Cloth Masks
  • Toy Storage Bean Bags
  • Girls’ Summer Dresses (comfy knit for play)
  • Girls’ Mixed Fiber Dresses (twirly fun)
  • Boys/Girls T-shirts and Tanks
  • Women’s Shirts
  • Women’s Tanks
  • Themes: Patriotic, Floral, Summer Fun, Sports, Camping……

I’m open to ANY and ALL Suggestions!
