Designer Bags Have Nothing On Me!

Good morning all,
Perhaps the title of my post this week is not entirely true. Designer bags do have one thing I don't and that's a hefty price tag. I also stand by my products and services! I can't tell you how many expensive designer labeled items I get in the store every week to be repaired and they are less than a year old. Greenpurse products don't last forever but they are well made and right here in the US! Friday I finally got my purse lines displayed and in the store for purchase. Four of my best selling purses and one new. The Sakk™. I'm madly working on another so I can claim the one pictured for my own! Very sturdy and the handle slides through a slit in the opposite side of the sack to close it. Custom bags also available, so stop by soon and check out all the cool stuff Arnst Zipper Studio carries. Happy, happy week and Go Aaron and company!

Perskinality

Good morning all,
Saturday October 27, 2012 Arnst Zipper Studio will be hosting an event entitled Perskinality. Mirjam Lippuner will be on hand to answer questions about Rodan + Fields and help you understand what your skin is telling you. (mine is yelling!) Please join Mirjam and me anytime between 10am and 2pm for snacks and tea + more information on Rodan + Fields and their products. Happy, happy week and Go Pack!

May the Best Window Win!

Good afternoon all,
I'm late in blogging today because I was out of town and do not have an iPhone, iPad, laptop or any other mobile device for getting on the super highway. Tomorrow the contest begins and I wish my friend lots of luck. We've got something big planned and informally pronounce ourselves the winners! Please be sure to stop by and check out both before deciding and remember all donations will be sent to our Sheboygan Salvation Army. Until next time, happy, happy week and go Pack!!!

Tie One On

Good morning all,
I did have a chance last Saturday to continue making a few bags from the Greenpurse line. My focus was on the Tie One On bags. Pictured is a small clutch and once I get to the messenger bag, I'll have enough in this line to display. I'm in the need for more old ties, so if you have any you'd like to donate I'm grateful. Remember, 10% of all sales of Greenpurse items is donated to a charity for abused children. I'll be sharing the total early January once payment has been made. It will be a record year I'm certain and I have you to thank! THANK YOU!!! Yesterday was spent creating props for the window contest so be sure to stay tuned for details, it is going to be fun! Happy, happy week and Go Pack!

If the Shoe Fits, Repair It

Good morning all,

Today I want to blog about my good friend and former handy man the cobbler on the next block, Kevin Hansen. He recently acquired this from Mel (Molly) and like Arnst Zipper, is an old fashioned business we don't see much of today. We are working together to meet the repair and mending needs of our community, surrounding  area and maybe even the world!  We have something big planned for Halloween so stay tuned and stop in to meet Kev, 1005 Michigan Ave. Happy, happy week and Go Pack!

The Vest Gets All the Gravy

Good morning all,
Thanks to all who stopped by yesterday for Light up the Night. It was a good day and one of our busier Saturdays. Today's photo is a sample of how we saved a gentleman's vest (his favorite). As you can see at the left of the frame, the leather was somehow destroyed. We were able to find leather that matched and put a square on both sides to make it look like it was part of the original design. He was very pleased and we were happy to help. Bring us your challenge and we'll see what we can do. Happy, happy week and Go Pack Monday NIght!

Go Green (and gold)

Good morning all,
The Pack pulled it off and now the Packer gear will start flying off the shelves. I sold one scarf yesterday and finished another last night. Pictured is a clutch purse made from reflective and Illuminator Tape™. Certainly one of a kind!
Terry Grall Illuminator expert will be on hand Saturday September 22nd from 10-2 to answer your questions about his invention and Arnst will host and show uses for this fabulous product. Hope to see lots of you there. Happy, happy week!
