Thursday...

I keep thinking it's Friday, but OOOH NO...It's Thursday.  We just got back from a 4 day trip to Nashville, where my hubby saw some great doctors and things are looking up for him!  We got to see the sights and eat some great food, and boy did I get some amazing photos!  So, that's what's been going on with us!  I am now working and working, trying to get caught up! 

So, what's new with Mills Design Co, you ask?  Let's see...

My handmade pillows were featured on About.com!  That's huge for me! I was so stoked and just had to share with the whole world- or at least, as many people that I could!  I'd love for you all to check out the page:

PLUS, my pillows were featured on Houzz.com!

I had never been to this site before, but if you enjoy decorating or design, you MUST check out this site!  Niki runs this forum and answers design questions or helps solve design problems.  She is an Interior Designer in Atlanta, and if you'd like to see more of her ideas check out her blog:

What a great resource for all of us amateurs!

Next, my shop is going to be featured on Heartsy!  There will be 100 vouchers available for $20 each.  Each voucher will be worth $54 of store credit in my shop.  This is an amazing deal, and would make a great gift!  Don't miss out, as there will only be 100 vouchers available.

Aside from that, I am in the process of organizing a photoshoot that I am hosting on Saturday!  This is my first one with more than one person at a time, and I am super excited!  We are expecting about 15 volunteers to help model my handmade, upcycled, and vintage clothing.  Below are some examples of my handmade, vintage inspired clothing- made to order.  Be sure to watch for photos of my photoshoot next week!

Well, that's it for today...Thanks for following, and have a great Thursday! 

Sorry...I didn't forget about you!

I know, I know....it's been a while.  I have lots of excuses, but here are the main ones: 
1.  My husband has been in and out of the hospital.  
2.  I have been working my tush off!

I haven't been working as hard on my vintage goodies, because I have really been focusing on my handmade stuffs.  I must say, my hard work is paying off...but man, am I exhausted!  I am working on a photoshoot, coming up on July 30th.  I have several volunteer models coming out to model both my vintage, and my handmade clothes- so when I renew my Etsy listings, ALL NEW PHOTOS!!!  I'm super excited about that!  I'd like to clear out some of the old stuff before I start listing, so feel free to take a browse, and enjoy 25% off at my shop with coupon code 81208!

More good news:  My handmade pillows were featured on About.com in the Interior Decorating category!  I don't know about you all, but this was HUGE for me!  Be sure to go by and read the little blog- and leave comments!!!  http://interiordec.about.com/b/2011/07/18/pillows-with-panache.htm

Here are some photos of my Smocked Pillows-

 

I'm taking custom orders right now, so if you would like one, or two, or 56...just send me a message and we'll get the ball rolling!

I'll be out of town next week, but I'll be posting pictures soon of the Photoshoot. 

Have a great night!
