Winter Woolies - Layer it on!

New goodies for sale!!!
These are all made from upcycled wool sweaters.
It's getting a little cold here in NS and the time has come to break out the woolies. I'm one of those people that is Always cold and wearing in a million layers.
A girl can't have too many fun mittens and this year it's also going to be arm warmers.










































































If you can't wear wool next to your skin, just throw a pair over your
l/s tee or thin knit sweater.
There is no such thing as too many layers!!!

As always, you can find these beauties at
Love Me Boutique on Birmingham st
or you can send me an e-mail to place an order.

Another Local Talent!

Lindsay Hicks @ Love Me Boutique
You have to check these out! I recently bought this print at Love Me and I Love It.
This picture doesn't do it any justice; the colors are much more vibrant and happy.










You have to check out Lindsay's site and then hit Love Me to pick up your own signed copy. They don't carry prints of everything, but there are some other really cool street scenes to choose from.
Here's a little bitty of some other things she's done.

Warm wooly!

Another custom order finished.
I know, I know, it's supposed to be summer and we shouldn't even be thinking about wool. Well if your living here on the east coast, it's been nothing but rainy, muggy and cool in the evenings.
Perfect for a little snuggle under a new up-cycled wool blanket.







































Blankets are approx 2' x 3'. $55.00 each
Available via e-mail or at Love Me Boutique HFX
They can be made to any size. Just send me off an e-mail with your size request and I'll give you a price.
Don't wait for the cold weather to order, these things are HOT!

CD/DVD Cases - NEW PRODUCT

So, I have a new product. I didn't plan on it, it just happened.






You may recall me mentioning my favorite photographer/friend/the reason I started sewing again; Patricia Sampson AKA Patty-cakes. Well she NEEDED something fun to put her cds in when she presents them to her clients. Apparently they is nothing suitable for a reasonable price. This is where I come in.
Jen..... do you think you could make something. The girl knows I'd do anything to help her out.

So here we are: CD/DVD cases, $8.00 each, min order 10.
They are made from 100% cotton with a fusible interfacing on the inside to make them stiffer.
There will be other colors available and I will do custom orders.
I'm not set up to take orders on line right now so just drop me a line at pipandpipper@gmail.com and I'll do what I can to help. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask! Jennifer

Gift Ideas - Hand Made- Nova Scotia

I Love the look of these journals! Don't they look soft? I need to have one. I'm not much for journal writing, but, I could always use it for sketching; I'll find a use for it if someone buys it for me.












These beauties are from the handiwork of Bev (aka "Bookyeti")
She is from right here in Nova Scotia! Check out her blog.
You can order on line here (etsy) or head down to my favorite spot for all things handmade;
Love Me Boutique on Birmingham.



Is it too early to start Christmas shopping?

Share With You Sunday




You have got to check out this shop on Etsy or here.I found my soap downtown Halifax at the Love Me boutique . They don't stock everything this little shop has to offer, but, I'm sure if you ask nicely....
I am in LOVE, L O V E, Love !!!!! I am allergic to just about everything I put on my face. Then I found this little wonder, Carrot Complexion Soap. Can you say Heaven?!
Sherrie Graham runs this home based business from Yarmouth Nova Scotia. I always like to support Local business but I'd buy these goodies from China if I had to. They are soooooo nice; they smell edible ( none of that yucky soapy smell you usually get from handmade soap) they lather just enough and rinse off perfectly. I've tried the carrot and the pink grapefruit loofah, now I'm hooked and have to try them all.


Pink Grapefruit Loofah Soap
Description
This great little round bar of high-lather soap has a section of all-natural loofah embedded in it. It makes a great scrubby surface for elbows, feet, and anywhere you want smooth skin. This is a long lasting bar which is just plain lovely. The scent is light and fresh and a perfect morning pick-me-up.













Carrot Complexion Soap
Description
The sunrise colour of these complexion bars comes from pure organic carrot juice. Its gentle fragrance, which smells faintly like a health food store, is very mild and is from pure howood essential oil. This nutrient-rich soap is full of skin conditioning ingredients such as cocoa butter and castor oil, and your skin will thank you for washing with it!

Lavender Bath Bar

I bet this is heavenly!


Cherry Almond Bath Bar
You really NEED to smell this, stop in to Love Me even if it's just to have a little sniff. You won't be disappointed.
