Hello There, Strangers

Summer is good.

You are less likely to find me on my computer when the sun is shining and the lake or park or backyard is calling.


Am I the only one who feels this way? Thus, the long lapse of blogosphere contributions. Despite my absence, Stacy and I have been hard at work making and selling Posh Toppings! What great events we had in June! We posted photos of the Backyard Boutique on Facebook, and today I posted photos from the Latah Variety Market! So fun! I've added some of them here, but be sure to check out our Facebook Fan Page for lots more!







And now for the pinnacle of the summer, and our biggest event yet, by far! The Art on the Green festival this weekend in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho! Most local people know it as Art on the Green, but it is actually three very large events, all linked together on the same weekend, creating a huge arts, crafts, food and fun event! We will be part of the Taste of the Coeur d'Alenes event, which is in the beautiful City Park beginning this Friday, July 31st. Hours are Fri & Sat 10-8:30 and Sun 10-6. If you are in the area, be sure to come by and see the enormous selection of new items we have been creating all summer for this three day sale. You won't regret it!

We will have some of our most popular pieces available, as well as loads and loads of new Posh Blossom designs. We will also be showing off our brand new Posh Vintage line! These special, one-of-a-kind pieces feature repurposed vintage centers, and are just gorgeous! Come early for these, as our selection of authentic vintage pieces is limited, and they will probably not last long!





In addition to our flower clips, we will share a whole new selection of headband and hat styles and colors to display your lovely Posh Blossoms on. As always, you will find plenty of items for babies to ladies! We'll look forward to seeing you!

Note to out of towners: We don't mean to leave you out, if you are too far away to enjoy our local events. Always feel free to peruse the pictures from these events and let us know if you'd like us to recreate any of the looks you may see in photos but not in our online store! We welcome custom orders. Just email us!

One more thing: Lovin' the adorable handmade clothing my little ones are sporting in the first two photos? Me too! I discovered a gal who does fabulous work at affordable prices! Check her out at 1crown3tiaras. I think you'll be seeing a lot more of her precious things in my photos. I just can't help myself!

Happy May! “We need a new Tagline” Giveaway!

Technically, it has been Spring for a while now. But around here, Spring is finally starting to show her beautiful face. It’s still hit and miss, mind you – but we’ll take what we can get! What better way to celebrate her arrival than with another GIVEAWAY!! Weeee! This month, we will offer the lucky winner a headband/blossom set of their choice. It can be a foofy Bebe Topping, a sweet and sassy look for your Toddler or Big Girl, or even a simple piece of head-turning elegance for you or your teen! Or, hey! Choose one that works for all of you and share the compliments all around! That is what is so fun about our interchangeable designs. This month, you can earn one entry for each of the following:

1. Leave a comment under THIS post.
2. Include a new tagline suggestion in your comment and receive another entry! We need one that will reflect the fact that our selection now includes accessories for ladies as well as little ones!
3. Sign up for email updates in our sidebar (if you haven’t yet done so)
4. Follow us on Facebook (if you haven’t yet done so)
5. And as always, send friends to us and have them mention you in their comment. (You can get an unlimited amount of entries for doing this!)

Please note that it is only necessary to leave one comment. We will track and count your other entries, should you choose to sign-up for email or Facebook.

We will not be doing a Follower’s Only Giveaway for the month of May. HOWEVER, feel free to “Follow” our blog (sign-up in the sidebar a little over halfway down) and be entered for any future Follower’s Only Giveaways! You have fantastic odds for these!

Our New April Giveaway!

I know, we still haven't announced the winners of our first giveaways. And we'll do that on Wed, April 1st. But I just couldn't wait to tell you about April's giveaway! OK, this is another good one. The winner will get a $25 credit for purchases in our Posh Toppings store! That’s a pretty good start to your Posh Toppings collection, don’t you think? How do you enter? Super easy! And like last month, you can up your chances by doing as much of the list below as you’d like!

1. Get ONE entry for commenting under THIS (and only this) blog entry. If you came here because of a friend or fellow blogger, be sure to tell us in your comment so they get credit too (fair’s fair).


2. Get ONE entry for every comment-er that gives you credit for sending them here in their comment!


3. Get TWO (yes, two) entries for signing up for our email updates (don’t worry folks, we won’t flood your inboxes - and if you've signed up previously, you will be included in this drawing as well!) Just enter your email address in the sidebar toward the top.
