Play Day

Well it was just to hot to work today. I did some tie dyeing last night for http://www.ziabird.com/ for the fall collection while it was cool. It heated back up today so we headed to the beach and went south down to Florence along the way we stopped at the heceta lighthouse and took a few pics. It was just glorious. I guess I'll go lay down in the hammock until it cools down a little then I'll hit the dye sink again tonight. I have included some pics from today.

Hot Hot Hot

Thank goodness we live so close to the beach. It is about 80 here at our house, but it is almost 100 in the valley then just 5 short miles to the coast and it is 70. We went to the coast. It was a great day for picking up shells and rocks etc... It was even better not to get hot. Now I know I have work to do and I will get to it just as soon as the sun sets. It cools off really quickly here when the sun goes down then the ocean breezes kick on shore and cools it all down. Gotta love the Oregon coast. I'll stick a picture up from Seal Rock just south of Newport. I am working on Ziabird new fall colors, new alternative apparel should be some really pretty items. I will be posting some of the items when I get them done tomorrow. They will be dyed tonight and through the wash cycles tomorrow.

Stay cool,

Nancy

REduce, REuse, REcycle

Went to the farmers market Saturday and loaded up on all the great bounty. Then it was back to work. Mom made some denim bags from some repurposed denim that are great, nice and tough. The handles are reinforced, then I added some drawings on side. These are great for purses, grocery totes or just a book bag. These are the pictures I've included with this posting. The bags are available on my ETSY site http://www.nancymyoder.etsy.com/ I also added some gorilla bags to the http://www.nancysnaturalsllc.com/ site today too. I have more than the photographed ones so if your interested let me know and I can get some more photos up. I have been working on the main site a lot and will continue to do so. I have things to post but I am waiting until I get the site the way it needs to be then I will start posting items for sale. There are things on the main site for sale just not nearly as much as there will be in the next incarnation. If you have any questions please let me know.

Peace,

Nancy

Clean Up

Well been in the work studio most of the day. I've sorted and picked several new pieces to dye for one of a kinds and now I'm ready to get to the dyeing. Mom made some denim grocery tote type bags out of some repurposed denim so they are tough and they look good. I think maybe I'll put one or two in my Etsy store. The http://www.nancysnaturalsllc.com/ will be going through some drastic changes, things will be eliminated and new sections will be set up. I'm going to have reproducable designs and colors for customized tshirts. There will also be handmade clothing some tie dyed some not so check out what pop's up. Remember when you shop with us everything you purchase is either made by myself or my mom whether that be clothing (hopefully repurposed fabric we try to keep as much out of the landfill as possible) tie dyeing or accessories, the only exception is when we purchase blanks for tie dyeing. Thanks for stopping by,

Nancy

I have been mixing dyes all day for http://www.ziabird.com/ for the new fall line they came out really nicely. Lots of things going on so I'll be posting a lot of new things to my etsy site to make sure and stop by to check them out.

Grey day today overcast not much for inspiration. I've got a couple new dresses I am working on and a few shirts in the dye bath now. I have some purses that will be going out in the next order to Hawaii and some to Vivo http://www.vivoannapolis.com/ so I'm hoping they will be well recieved. Well it looks like sweat pants and a fuzzy shirt and watching a movie time. I hope all is well in the world. Leave me some comments and let me know what you think of the current stuff being photographed.

Thanks,

Should be a red letter day. Well we have finally decided on a design for our halter dresses. I will put up a pic for you to take a look at. I also have done another custom v neck tee those dark blues and greens seem to be a favorite. I am going to have a new Alternative Apparel shirt available soon, along with some of there new dresses. There should be some really nice stuff coming out of the work room in the coming weeks. Please stop by and check out the new designs and new colors available.

Making New Clothes

Mom and I have been designing and making some prototypes for dresses. With the economy being what it is you would think that you could buy whatever you wanted at greatly reduced prices but some how that is not exactly happening. Suppliers are all carrying less product and charging more for what they have and discontinuing numerous styles to cut costs. So we are using repurposed fabric to make new designs. We hope to have some for viewing in a couple of days these will be sold through my website at Etsy and hopefully through Ziabird. Well I hope everyone is well and treating each other better.
