| Friday Finds – A Day Late |
[Nov. 21st, 2009 | 10:22 pm] |

Ok, so this is more like Saturday Finds. Better late than never!
I’ve been wanting one of the sewing themed Bags from Brooklyn Industries for quite some time. Yesterday, I got an email about a holiday sale they are having (25% off with the code FF2010) and when I checked up on my beloved bag, it was only $19.99!! I quickly snatched one up, and will be toting it around in no time 
Nothing says “I’m crafty” like a tote bag covered in mini sewing machines and spools of thread.

I have a total back log of bags that need to be put up on the site. I took a whole bunch of photos this past weekend, and edited them on Monday, so now I have to find the time to post them!
I added these two cuties yesterday/today:
I love how the gray on gray print came out. I thought it was going to be too subtle, but it turned out just perfect!
Many more bags are on the way!

Those of you who know me in real life know that I’m a total geek. (I’m an IT Consultant during the day for crying out loud) So I totally appreciate this:
It’s a flower bed (tulips to be exact) USB hub! What better way to organize your USB cable clutter, than with these adorable flowers? I think I need a double-long planter for all of my cables! LOL
Best of all, it’s only $22 on fredflare.com!

| Crystal’s Mask Tote |
[Oct. 26th, 2009 | 09:45 am] |
This is Crystal’s mask tote! She wanted a custom bag for her masquerade-ball-loving friend (what a good friend she is!) She was looking for something blue and brown (don’t you love those stripes?) and wanted a custom print. Together, we came up with the mask design, and she was thrilled with the results!

Welcome to the new and improved Cherry Red Boutique!
For those of you who haven’t seen the new website, here is a little preview:
This is a MAJOR change for us! We have totally overhauled the site, and even our logo! Say hello to Maggie:  the Cherry Red Boutique skullie. Isn’t she cute?!
While the look of the site is totally different, all the functionality is still there! Accounts, saved shopping carts and wish lists are all right where you left them. So come on by and take a peek!
(And to celebrate, take 10% off your order with the code: NEWSITE)

| Polyvore |

For those of you not familiar with polyvore.com, you should totally check it out!
It’s a really awesome website where you can create ’sets’ using different pieces of clothing, accessories, images and backgrounds. You can create outfits, accessory sets, or a work of art!
There are a lot of cherry red boutique accessories on polyvore, and they have been used in thousands of sets (There are so many talented ladies out there!) so I thought I would make it a weekly feature on the blog to post one or two polyvore sets.
This week’s set is called Welcome Aboard! and was created by Crystal85:
That’s our anchor tote in the lower left hand corner! I love the playsuit and the necklace, what a cute outfit!

[Sep. 26th, 2009 | 11:04 pm] |
So the day came and went. It all went by so fast!
We are married!
We had a great time honeymooning in Aruba, the weather was beautiful, and the resort we stayed at was amazing. We're already talking about going back! Haha
Now it's back to business as usual!
Stay tuned for some big changes at Cherry Red Boutique! |

I just wanted to let you ladies know that the shop will be closed for about a week while my soon-to-be-hubby and I are on our honeymoon! All orders placed while we are away will be filled as soon as humanly possible when we get back!

| My New Closet! |
[Jul. 19th, 2009 | 10:12 pm] |
This weekend, my fiance (Rob aka Beef) fixed up the closet in my craft room for me! It had been left as is since we moved in - with only one high shelf, and a bar for hanging clothing (which was useless to me, since I was using it to store fabrics and other crafty goodies)
With the wedding planning and everything, we had been putting it off for a while, but Rob finally put it up on the "wedding calendar" in our kitchen a few weeks ago, and promised that it would happen this weekend. He got up early to take measurements, and headed off to home depot to buy the wood (how manly!)
It now has FIVE shelves, and can hold much more of my stuff!!
( some before and after pictures! )
Thanks Beef <3 |

| New Bags! |
[Jul. 13th, 2009 | 08:23 pm] |
  
Three awesome new bags have been added to the site! My goal (for the time being) is to get two new bags up on the site every week. Lets's see how long I can keep this up! |

| New Hair Stuffs! |
[Jul. 6th, 2009 | 10:40 pm] |
I added some new hair items that I had made for the Renegade Craft Fair to the site! A lot of these got snatched up at the fair, so I only have a few pairs of some designs :( I have to order more supplies!
Which are your favorites?
Also, Cherry Red Boutique is now on Twitter!! Click here to view our profile and follow us :)

| Renegade Craft Fair 2009 |
[Jun. 10th, 2009 | 10:32 pm] |
I can't believe that it's over! I spent weeks preparing for it (sewing my booty off and making new jewelry) and just like that, it was over.
It went well, and we had a great time! We didn't do as well as last year, but not by much, so it was still totally worth it. I love to see people's reactions to my stuff in person :)
We both got a little crispy on the first day (Rob had to wander around Brooklyn in search of sunscreen while I manned the booth all by myself). I am also now sporting a pretty awesome flip-flop tan on both my feet!
And our friends Josh and Monica came by on the second day and kept us company for a bit. Josh bought us rainbow ices in spongebob cups (!!) He was a life saver.
