Growing Pains

For those of you that visit our store, you have probably noticed that Miss Duffy’s is going through some changes. We are experiencing a few growing pains. Most all of our new site is functioning, but there are things that need tweaking- larger pictures etc. Bear with us. New items are arriving daily, but will likely be added without me blogging about them. If you are a vintage holiday collector, you will want to check back frequently. We have a wonderful new line of vintage inspired jewelry arriving soon, and many more relics and vintage inspired offerings. Don’t miss them. I don’t want my blog to become all about what is new in my store. I will blog about some things, but most will go unrecognized. The above pictures are a sneak peek into my Christmas line!
Now, isn’t this beautiful? This is the crown that I received in my friend Holly’s Tiara swap. My partner was Lori at Vintage Flair. It was so much fun, and I just love the beautiful Marie Antoinette crown that she made me. I don’t know how she did it, but she really made it perfect for my taste. She has just blogged about the one I sent her. She has it beautifully displayed on the corner of a vintage frame.
This next picture is a close up of the glittered Acanthus spray that I used as the base for Lori’s crown. This was my favorite Christmas offering last year, so I brought it back this year in my Glitterville Line. I just love the velvety glittered leaves, they appear so vintage in their style and design. I think thats why I love them so much. For the crown, I just clipped a couple of leaves. The shape against the crown makes me think of wings. At Christmas we used these to fill our tree, and apothecary jars around the house. I have plans to spruce up an old wreath this year by tucking clippings of them here and there. I’ll be sure to blog about it when and if it happens. Kasse

Oh…I love your Xmas items. I need to go peek inside your shop. I am glad you liked your crown as much as I liked mine.
Your friend.

Hi Kasse, your new site is just beautiful! I think you are really going to like Pappashop. I think it is so easy to use but the only thing I would like is if it automatically resized pictures. That can be a pain! Good luck! love your items.

LOVING your Christmas stuff Kasse! Your site is looking great, you’ll get the hang of the admin side of Pappashop, but like Heather, it would be great for the thumbnail pic to be automatically reduced for you…. the way they do it for the gallery…we should write to them!
