reereebee	Posted - Mar 16 2012 : 3:10:25 PM I am making lots of purses for an upcoming craft show. I have fabric galore but need some lovely trims to adorn the purses. Lace, ric-rac, beading...any jingle-jangle-bobble will do. I have many little handmade items to barter including the dish soap aprons (more colors available) listed on my Etsy site: http://www.etsy.com/shop/reereebee I also have lots and lots of bronze colored drawer pulls, dish towels for various holidays, pecans (in the shell). The possibilities are endless...just ask...I may just have it I'm looking forward to your responses, ladies. My craft show is on 4/14 so time is tickin' for me to get these done. Thanks, in advance, for your farmgirl support. --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M. BARRIE, Novelist

reereebee	Posted - Apr 03 2012 : 5:25:54 PM Laura - Glad the apron arrived safely. Enjoy! Sheila - Your pecans should be to you soon. I was VERY delayed in mailing them. I'm sorry --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M. BARRIE, Novelist
crittergranny	Posted - Apr 01 2012 : 7:18:35 PM The little dishsoap apron arrived Saturday. Thank you. My little dish bottle is all decked out in leopard skin now! So cute. Laura Horse poor in the boonies. www.nmbarrelhorses.com

Wauka Mountain Mama	Posted - Mar 23 2012 : 1:10:13 PM LOVELY!!! :D
Jonesy	Posted - Mar 23 2012 : 08:49:55 AM ROFLOL YES, Fran a pearl necklace would top it off nicely. Nothing happens unless first we dream.
reereebee	Posted - Mar 22 2012 : 5:53:56 PM Fran - Oh yes! She definitely needs pearls! --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M. BARRIE, Novelist
Wauka Mountain Mama	Posted - Mar 22 2012 : 5:51:58 PM Marie, I got the apron today & my dish soap looks quite charming in it....Theres a silly part of me thats thinking about making a pearl necklace to go with the apron.
reereebee	Posted - Mar 22 2012 : 5:49:28 PM Fran - The rick rack and beads arrived today. Thank you so much! I love the card, too. Sheila - The box of trims you sent arrived today, as well. They're fantastic I will have a box out to you, soon. I promise! I am preparing for my largest special event of the year at work. Our Annual Kids' Fishing Clinic draws nearly 400 children every year. It is this Saturday, so things should calm down in a couple days. Sorry for the delay in getting your package out. --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M.

reereebee	Posted - Mar 21 2012 : 2:52:45 PM Joan, Thank you SO much! Your dish soap apron is on it's way, as well. --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M. BARRIE, Novelist
Jonesy	Posted - Mar 21 2012 : 07:04:15 AM Marie, Your trim was mailed yesterday (Tuesday) so you should be getting it soon. I was able to find a few more pieces and hope they suit your project. Sounds like you will be VERY busy playing with you purses. Here's wishing that the show does well by you. Joan Nothing happens unless first we dream.
reereebee	Posted - Mar 19 2012 : 1:01:13 PM Joan - All of the trims that are 29" would work perfectly. They are beautiful. The three aprons I currently have in red & white are the 2 shown in the photo (red/white floral, red/white ticking) and I have a red & white check (like a picnic blanket) not shown above. I have lots of fabric, so if you'd prefer something else, I'd be happy to whip one up I'll send you an email so we can exchange addresses. Thanks so much! --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M. BARRIE, Novelist
Jonesy	Posted - Mar 19 2012 : 06:55:31 AM Would you consider these items? The top one is only 12", I am not sure if the pearls on the satin pleats show up in the photo, but is is really nice. The rest are at least 29" long. The bottom one is fringe, the black string is to be removed after sewing. I would love to have a soap apron, how cute they are, never seen them before. Do you have any more in red/white or yellows? Joan Nothing happens unless first we dream.

Wauka Mountain Mama	Posted - Mar 18 2012 : 2:36:24 PM I just sent the email. I'll be mailing the rick rack out tomorrow. I got a post office right next to where I work. ;D
reereebee	Posted - Mar 18 2012 : 09:15:48 AM To everyone who's been so generous, I have your items ready to mail! Please send me an email with an address to send them to. Thanks! --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M. BARRIE, Novelist
reereebee	Posted - Mar 17 2012 : 10:27:42 AM Here are some more dishsoap aprons not currently on my Etsy site. I have many, many more colors/patterns. I'll try to post another picture with more options. --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M.

Wauka Mountain Mama	Posted - Mar 17 2012 : 09:54:49 AM Oh, I love Red & White check! Iam waiting on the DH to finish his morning chores so we can leave out, but I did find the rick rack, its labled as "baby" which to say its real small. I have 4pks 1 yard each of Pink, White, Metallic gold and green. I can look around in my beads. I have a bucket of mismatched beads that would make good toggles for zippers or just little bits of bling I can toss in a handfull or so.
reereebee	Posted - Mar 17 2012 : 09:32:11 AM Wauka Mountain Mama - Rick Rack sounds great! Beads would be great, too. I can definitely do a red dish soap apron. I have some that are red background with a big white leaf/floral on them. I also have red and white ticking or red & white check (like a picnic blanket). Just message me with your address and I'll get it out ASAP. Thanks --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M. BARRIE, Novelist
Wauka Mountain Mama	Posted - Mar 17 2012 : 08:24:23 AM OH! I actually have a few packs of small rick rack in different colors that I probably won't be using if you want it.
Wauka Mountain Mama	Posted - Mar 17 2012 : 08:23:13 AM I also make purses so I actually have a good bit of stuff. I gotta run out & get 2 plants for my son's science project, but just let me know what want the most (Beads, lace, ribbons, buttons, ect) and how much of them for a red dish bottle apron and I'll root around in my stuff to see what I have. :)
reereebee	Posted - Mar 16 2012 : 8:26:02 PM Each purse uses about 28 inches of trim/lace. If i don't use trim, then I center an accent piece over the magnetic snap closure such as a large button or possibly one of the conchos mentioned by crittergranny. --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M.

reereebee	Posted - Mar 16 2012 : 8:07:52 PM SheilaC - Oh Yes! They all look divine I especially like the tassel-y ones and the pink fuzzy trim. --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M. BARRIE, Novelist
SheilaC	Posted - Mar 16 2012 : 7:49:12 PM Hi Marie, are any of these trims things you could use? http://troutwife.blogspot.com/ http://www.etsy.com/shop/brooktroutwife
reereebee	Posted - Mar 16 2012 : 6:12:25 PM Conchos might be fun! Antler/bone beads could work, too. Please let me know what color(s) you'd like and I'll see what dishsoap aprons I have for you. Thanks! --Marie-- Farmgirl Sister #1627 www.reereebee.etsy.com “Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else” - J.M. BARRIE, Novelist
