Faster than a Harley

Good morning all,
Another week has past filled with hard work and fun. When I fix Harley Davidson apparel I sometimes have to replace the broken hardware. When that happens, I save any pieces that bear the name. I then turn them into jewelry that never stay in the store long. On several occasions they sold the very day I made them! These were created yesterday afternoon and will move faster than a Harley, so be the first in line Monday morning to claim your one of a kind, official Harley Davidson set! M-F 10-5 Sat. 10-2. Happy, happy week and Go Pack!

Wool Waste

Good morning all,
Thanks to everyone who made it to Molly's and The Studio. Very fun and busy! We are already planning events for next year introducing some new vendors and great deals.

Anyone who knows me, knows I have a hard time throwing even scraps of fabric away and Margaret (one of the seamstresses at Arnst) feels the same way.  We always see a potential use in them and these wool pieces are no exception. We started making pins a couple weeks ago and they are selling very well. All are unique and some are embellished with antique buttons or...ZIPPERS! Use them as bows on a present, accent to scarves or even a pin for your hair. These make great stocking stuffers and are available at Arnst Zipper Studio. $4.50- $12.00. Happy, happy week and Go Pack!

What is a T-shirt Skirt?

Good morning all,
The winner is...Arnst Zipper Studio! A $100 check was cut and dropped off at the Salvation Army this past Monday. Thanks to all who participated!
I'm not sure how the sale went yesterday at South High School, but one of the new items for sale are T-shirt skirts. Margaret (seamstress at Arnst) saw some at a craft fair and thought they were really cute. I mentioned it to the girls in my classes yesterday and there seemed to be quite an interest. We'll try them out in the store and see how it goes. We have lots of other unique gifts perfect for Christmas, so come in soon before they are all gone! Happy, happy week!
