Yesterday was a big day over here at hi tree. I had an IDEA. Sometimes those can be few and far between and other times they just flow like water. 

Let me break it down for you. I had an Idea, then this happened.

 I think it's rather fantastic, but I'm a little crazy so just bare with me here. 

I've retired the old pine tree design indefinitely and in it's place will be this little guy. He is now available for purchase in my store! 

He has been sitting on my work table since I completed him yesterday and every time I leave the room I hear a tiny voice singing, I quickly turn around and catch him singing songs about pinecones. What is up with that? 

Also, I made a new notebook design. 

 Setting up for the North East Los Angeles Art Walk in my dear friend Sonia Romeros studio. 

 There was a popcorn fight and naturally I decided it would be a good idea to go swimming in the popcorn. 

 And now for some pictures of my studio/ work space. 

My tiny human.

Rainbow zipper pouches coming soon!

Little mushroom pins that go with the Tree Stump Pincushion.

I don't know what I would do with out this Ikea shelf. 

That's all for now!

Giveaway Time!

Let's go ahead and skim over the fact that it's been ALMOST four months since I last did a blog post. I am assuming that you are happy to see that I am still alive. However, I cannot guarantee that I am actually alive and not in fact a zombie or a ghost. The good news is that either way, somehow I am typing on a keyboard. Hooray.

Much has happened in the last four months. The holidays happened, which is crazy town for me and hi tree. Super long story short,  I had record sales and had to temporarily hire two employees. Which made my life just beautiful. Well, I don't know how beautiful it really was but it definitely cut down on the bouts of rocking back and forth in the corner and the sobbing into my coffee. Because, well, I don't know if you know this but I AM a single mom and I do run a household and a business and sometimes it feels as if my head will EXPLODE.

On to the good stuff! I haven't had a giveaway in a LONG time. And it's time to go ahead and take care of that. It has been suggested that I give away a doll, so that is precisely what I am going to do.

I will be giving away one of these lovely little Lucy dolls. Here is how you can enter. Head over to the hi tree facebook page and comment on this photo on the wall. Every time you share on facebook or any other social network you gain another entry! I am also having a spring sale in the hi tree etsy store. Use the coupon code HELLOMARCH to get 20% off everything. 

Don't forget to "like" the hi tree facebook page!
