Etsy Shop :: Kyrygz Wool Felt Items

I'm starting my Etsy shop with these flower clips for a fundraiser for Kyrgyzstan, plus there are a few fall and Halloween items. I will be adding more and more items over the next few weeks, so stay tuned!

You won't find these anywhere else! At least, I don't think so :) I bought all the flowers and garlands that they had left from the former Volga River Trading Company, a charity organization who used to sell Central Asian handmade goods. They don't exist anymore, and the gal who ran it sold me all the flowers and garlands they had left.

The flowers and garlands are made in Kyrgyzstan from 100% Kyrgyz wool felt.

Proceeds will benefit the orphans of Kyrgyzstan, so shop shop shop!

Flower clips are for now ready for sale in my Etsy store--www.sugarplumorphans.etsy.com. There are 3 different styles. The colors are SO perfect for fall/winter (and beyond!).

New to Etsy Shopping? ----> If you're new to Etsy, you will have to register to be able to make purchases. It's not hard, though, and you can do it as you check out. "In-line registration" is a new, super-user-friendly feature on Etsy. You don't have to leave the Checkout to go register and then come back to it. Handy-dandy.

Here are the specs on the garlands:

Approx 43" long

Loop at one end for easy hanging

16 one-inch flowers in a variety of colors

Hang in a room, on a Christmas tree... anywhere!

$44, plus $2.00 shipping

Quantities are limited!

Garlands are for sale via email only. I cannot sell them on Etsy since I myself did not make them or hand-assemble them.

TO ORDER A GARLAND: Email me at sugarplum.orders@gmail.com.

Include the following in your email:

(1) Name and mailing address

(2) Number of garlands you wish to purchase

(3) Whether you will be paying via check or PayPal.

(4) If you are ordering flower clips from the Etsy shop, I'll ship your garland with those items at no extra cost.

Unsung Hero of Sugarplum Boutique!

All this would NOT be possible without my dear husband. So leave a comment and give a shout-out to the one who really makes this possible! :) I always appreciate him, and I am thinking of his support even more during this busy bow-season (craft shows coming up, Etsy shop opening soon).

Rick is such a key player in this venture by...

...allowing me to put time (sometimes a LOT) into making products even though it means more work for him (taking care of the kids by himself, etc.)
...having a heart to give to orphans and adoptions. I'm grateful to have a spouse who is willing to sacrifice, rather than insisting that this be for us. (Although some of it will go toward our adoptions, it's not for the sake of having more money to spend.)
...tending to the kids when I'm busy. Often times he'll take the kids to the Y while I get things done.
...letting me purchase yet another big order of bulk ribbon.
...being willing to watch the kids by himself for an entire Saturday and give up a family-day when I have a show.
...setting up my new serger for over an hour.
...not minding if I fall even more behind on things around the house. He'll even pick up much of the slack, going down to the basement to work on laundry (without my asking) and things like that.
...putting up with my bow messes. I can't believe I'm showing you this! Currently, though, our table is not so bad. But often times it looks like this on the table, various places on the floor...

...sacrificing time with me after the kids go to bed while I'm working on stuff. He kisses me goodnight, then heads to bed, always with a "Don't stay up too late." :)
...helping me with bow work sometimes! Here he's working on butterfly antennae :)

Thanks, hon, for all your support, your heart to help the fatherless and your sacrifices and hard work!!! I'm honored to be your wife and abundantly blessed that the Lord chose you for me! And you're dang cute!
