Boutique 77

Yesterday I placed a few of my bags in a local boutique here in Philly called Boutique 77! Its a cute little pop up boutique that features alot of independent designers.  Although, I've been offered a chance to be in various boutiques before, I've never done it so this is my first time having bags in one.  The store is located at 777 S Broad Street/Avenue of the Arts, Philadelphia, PA. 

If you are in the area, definitely stop by to check it out! They will be open until Dec 29, 2010 (Tues thru Saturday - 12pm to 8pm)

NS Gift Certificates NOW AVAILABLE!!

I've had a few folks ask me about doing gift certificates/gift cards so they are now available!  Personally, I LOVE getting gift certificates and cards! Its nothing better than being able to pick out what you like yourself and you aren't obligated to get something right away if you don't want to.  Nneka Saran gift certificates are great because they can be used towards any bag for an entire year after the date of purchase!  They come in $25, $50, $75, and $100 value amounts.  You can purchase them on my Etsy page HERE ! Once you place order, you will receive a PDF file with e-gift certificate attached.  Gift certificate can be sent to you or recipient. GREAT GREAT GREAT as Christmas gifts!  :)

Going Viral??

I've been thinking for awhile about going viral ... doing a few video blogs to give people a glimpse in my world of all things Nneka Saran and the pursuit of my passion! The only problem is ... I HATE being on and seeing myself on video! lol
So it appears I have a bit of a dilemma so I'll get back to yall on that one!


Let me know what you think!

And to top if off I rocked my Nneka Saran TRACEE Foldover Clutch which goes perfectly with jeans!! A great statement piece like a Nneka Saran clutch will set off any outfit - if I do say so myself! :)
I love the mix of prints and I got alot of compliments on it! :)

New Clutch - LadyLove Foldover Clutch

This weekend I worked on a cute new clutch I love! I found this quilted leather and beautiful fabric in NY last week and instantly fell in love with it. Sadly, there was only about a yard of the fabric left so I wont be able to make many of this style. I just posted it on my Facebook page and already have 2 orders!! Its always great to know other people like something just as much as I do! :)

Check out my 'LadyLove' Foldover clutch and let me know what you think!

**UPDATE: Only 1 left! Order now! :)

DIY Christmas Wreath

Christmas time is here! Yayy! Hands down, Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year! As you noticed, Christmas decorations are everywhere now and its tempting to buy all those cute decorations out there but remember, there are some things you can actually make yourself! Why buy a $40 wreath when you can DIY!

Check out the wreath I made for only $13 in supplies! Super easy and quick to do and looks just as good for over half the price!

SUPPLIES:
30 inch wreath (on sale AC Moore $4.99)
Artificial flowers (I used silver poinsettias $7.00 - on sale at Michaels)
Silver Christmas tree ornaments ($1.00 - Target)
Green florist wire (already had)

INSTRUCTIONS:
1.  First cut all your flowers off the bunch and put in a pile.
2.  Cut off a good length of green florist wire and wrap it around the base of your first flower head then attach it to wreath as desired.

3.  Continue doing this around the whole wreath. Use same process for attaching ornaments to wreath too.

4.  Once it looks pretty full and as you desire, you're all done! Easy peezy! :)

 

I only bought one pack of the ornaments but I may go get some more and fill it in with a few more of the silver balls.  Other than that, I'm pleased...and for $13 and about 20 minutes of my time, I cant complain! lol
