Indie Craft Experience….THIS WEEKEND!!!

June 8, 2011 by fattycakeshandmade

It might have snuck up on me (hello, last minute crafting!) but I.C.E. is here!  I will be there both days in the fattycakes handmade/Kristina Dutton booth! I am sharing a booth this year with my friend Kristina, who will have tons of paintings, jewelry, and general awesomeness!  Come out and see us and shop some aweseome crafts!

As usual, I will have lots of fun felt friends including robots, octopi, elephants, whales, cacti, faux bois logs, toast and poop magnets and my newest creation, a gigantic-feltastic-robot will be there!  Come see him!

We’ll be there from 11-6 on Saturday+Sunday!
Ambient+ Photo Studio on the West End

Did I mention that King of Pops and Good Food Truck will be there?!?!  And that if you’re one of the first 250 people each day you get an awesome swag bag designed by local artists?!?!  See you there!!!

New in the Shop!

January 20, 2011 by fattycakeshandmade

With the holiday decorations finally down (and my separation anxiety over…see you next year, favorite ornaments and happy decorations!) life is returning to a normal pace, which of course means new craft projects!  I pulled out some vintage fabric I had been saving  hoarding for a while now and got inspired for a new critter. 

I adore vintage fabric, and usually buy it anytime I see it at a thrift store.  I bought some wonderful large upholstery fabric samples from the 60′s at Last Chance Thrift in Decatur (before it moved across the street) and have been hoarding it ever since.  It is a great large psychadelic-meets-paisley print that I was afraid to cut into.  Alas, I went for it…deciding it would make the perfect elephant ear for these new vintage inpspired felt baby elephants!  I got down to business and made about 10 of these elephants, using vintage buttons for the eye and vintage zipper bits as the tales!  I had been saving these zipper bits ever since making some zippered pouches about a year ago.  I even came close to throwing them out…what would I do with them anyway?!  Sometimes craft hoarding is a good thing (don’t tell my husband I said that).

So brand new in the SHOP, baby felephants!

Happy Thanksgiving All!

November 25, 2010 by fattycakeshandmade

Happy Happy Thanksgiving! 

A super special thanks to all who stopped by the fattycakes booth at I.C.E. last weekend!  It was a great 2 days!  I loved meeting lots of new people and seeing so many familiar faces!  It is so great that Atlanta has such an amazing event focused on indie crafts, I am always proud to be a vendor there!  Thanks to Shannon and Christy for all the amazing work they do to organize and promote this event! 

Don’t forget about the I.C.E. Pop-Up Shop!  Opens tomorrow on Black Friday at the Woodruff Arts Center!  AND…Saturday is Small Business Saturday, so please forgo the big box stores and visit your local independent businesses.  Show them your love and support so they will stay in business!

Here are a few pictures from my weekend at I.C.E….hope everyone fills up on turkey and fixins today!
