Water for Elephants

Over the weekend, I saw Water for Elephants. This movie is pure magic! I think what I was most blown away by was the clothing. How I wish people still dressed like they did in the 1930-40's.







It is definitely a must see!
Here are a few more vintage inspirations that I love.








Darling, right?

Spring Art Walk

Saturday was the Spring Art Walk in downtown Hattiesburg. Unfortunately, Gabby and I were not able to sell anything due to the fact that we do not have a tax id for Anchor & Sparrow, but I still think we had a successful day! We handed out a ton of business cards and a lot of people seemed interested in our products! So of course that is encouraging. We accomplished what we set out for which is getting our name out there. We told everyone we could about Day in the Park in May and urged everyone to look us up on facebook. All-in-all, good day!








Also, look what came in the mail today!





A few weeks ago I entered one of Seablanket's Spring Fling Blog Party Giveaways to win photos and book-frame from Parker H. Fitzgerald and I WON! I was so happy because I've never won any giveaway from a blog before! I did a little jig when I received the news. Anyways, I lovelovelove it! I even got a sweet little thank you note from Chelsea.







I hope you all are having a great Monday!
I'll be dog-sitting Louigi all week long. Wish me luck!

Exciting Things!

Betcha can't guess who took these beautiful pictures. If you guessed BlackBird Photography then you guessed correctly! I could not be happier with the way these promotional pictures for Anchor & Sparrow turned out! Ryan and Jessica are truly amazing!

Another excited thing is that Anchor & Sparrow will be at the Spring Art Walk in downtown Hattiesburg this Saturday! Gabby and I will not be able to sell anything at the art walk due to not having a tax id but we will be passing out business cards and will a few items to look at. So I hope to see a lot of you there and supporting other local artist! It will be a ton of fun.
Anchor & Sparrow will be at Day in the Park in Laurel (May 7th) this year and we will be selling things there :)

I really cannot express how happy my heart is right now! So many positive things are going on that it's hard not to smile. I also have some fun news that have to do with the lovely Dawn Trest of Hello Dearie! I'm SEW excited! ;)

I hope that all of you are doing great and loving life.
(I've been listing to Gabby's Summer Playlist while writing this post and it's just put me in such a great mood that I had to share!)

New Month, New Goodies

I thought I would give you a peek at some new things that are going to be offered for the upcoming months at anchor & sparrow!



I've added the crochet flowers + felt leaves to the beanies! Anna Love is the beautiful girl in the pictures above and the first to receive one of these beanies. One day in January we were talking and I was telling her my idea about putting the felt leaves with the flowers and adding them to my beanies. She thought it was a great idea and told me to try it out, and she would purchase it! After trying it, falling in love with it, I showed her the outcome and she was ecstatic! Yay!

And here is a peek at the adorable new headbands that Gabby is offering for the summer! The entire headband is crocheted (even the band!) these cute little flowers and crocheted leaves are just darling!

We are so excited about coming up things for Anchor & Sparrow! We're trying to come up with new things and we can't wait to share them with you. For all of you that have supported us, I can not say thank you enough!

Happy Sunday!
