Off White Indie Wedding Weekend

The wedding show was wonderful!  There were so many lovely vendors and beautiful brides to be that it seemed surreal at times.  The weather was perfect here in St. Louis on the event day, and crowds of people piled in the Third Degree Glass Factory for their peek at the hottest wedding trends and free goodie give-aways.

The three Shenandoah Soap gals (Me, Megan, and Renee) made new friends, sipped on some cocktails, and presented our new wedding favor and gift set line.  Thanks to everyone who stopped by the table to test products and chat with us.

Our biggest success from the show is that Off White is writing a feature article for St. Louis Bride and Groom magazine and will be using the new groom's  shaving kits as a highlight in the article. Woo hoo!  Look for us in the May issue.  If you would like to see more lovely photos from the grand 2011 Off White Indie Wedding Show event, click here.

Update from the Craft Show

Holi-DIY was a great success this weekend.  Once again, STL Craft Mafia did an excellent job with their formula:  quality crafts + a little booze + a friendly atmosphere = money well spent.  The scene was set with local creations from terrariums to designer clothing and even included a "Steam Punk" Santa for the kiddos.

Two weeks ago, I spent a small fortune at the Rock 'n' Roll Craft Show and was able to get most of my Christmas shopping finished.  This week, I only allowed myself one purchase which was a skein of art yarn from Dyeabolical Yarns.  I think it is absolutely beautiful.  I quickly put it to use and finished crocheting a small cowl/neck warmer, and I think it is lovely.  It will likely be posted on the Etsy shop in a day or two.

Thank you to everyone who went to the show and visited my table.  I recognized a few familiar faces and met some new and interesting folks.  Some people remembered me from the Medusa Craft Show a few months back. That was certainly nice to hear.

I also want to thank my friend Kelly Hogan who invited me as her guest and reminded me that bringing home-brewed beers for us to enjoy followed suit with the DIY theme.  That Kelly, she's always thinking.
