We’ve got a 3-day sale going on right now with super fun online sale boutique sneakpeeq! Signing up is super easy, all you have to do is connect via your Facebook account. The experience is really neat and unique where shoppers take virtual ‘peeqs’ at items thus lowering the prices. By playing around on the site, and sharing, peeqing, and buying items you can unlock badges. Some badges have the power to lower the prices even further. How cool is that!? Quantities are pretty limited so hurry and go snag your deals before they’re gone!

I’m so overjoyed by everyone’s response to the free gift tags I offered and it has got me thinking of a few other freebies I could offer you guys. I’d like to start a monthly download here on the blog and would love to know your thoughts on which types of freebies you’d like to receive. I’ve posted a poll on my Facebook page so please select your favorite option or feel free to add one in. I hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend! 8 days till’ Christmas….eeeep!

This weekend is the Renegade LA Holiday show and it is our very last show of the year! There will be some specials going down over at our booth so if you haven’t had the chance to get out and shop for your holiday gifts, consider stopping by the show at the Los Angeles Historic State Park this weekend. There are hundreds of amazingly talented artists, free workshops, food, drinks, and much more. The show is from 10-5 each day and it is looking like it will be a nice weekend weather-wise, perfect for outdoor shopping!
Speaking of shows, UniqueLA was such a blast! Thank you to all who came out and shopped handmade and local made goods. The record was set this year with attendance, over 20,000 people!! We had so much fun talking to shoppers, seeing fellow vendors, and meeting new people. Even though we were working hard we also got a chance to get out and walk the show a bit. We saw some celebs, ate some great food, enjoyed free drinks, and got our photo snapped at the Oh Snap Photobooth, check it out below! Sonja and the team have really set the bar high for events like this and we can’t thank them all enough for their hard work! There is a great wrap-up on the State Of Unique website as well as a link to photos of the show on Flickr. Check it out!
To wrap things up, Cesar and I working away over here packing orders from our Fab sale. If you ordered something from us it will be on its way to you very soon! The studio is piled high with boxes and mailers and we can’t wait to get them filled and out the door. I’ve also got some exciting blog posts planned as well as some new designs in the works. There is much more to come once the craziness of the holidays settles down. Speaking of, has everyone gotten all their gifts!? I’m hoping to work my way down my shopping list at Renegade and with some Etsy purchases this coming week. Christmas is just around the corner, ya’ll!

** UPDATE! ** I just submitted the donation to the HSUS! Thanks so much to all who bought from me this month and helped me to give a generous gift on my birthday to this amazing organization!
I know we are 6 days into December and I had totally planned for this post to go live Dec. 1st, but with all the shows and shopping craziness I am just now getting around to it! This month is my birthday month, and since it is better to give than to receive I wanted to give a special gift come December 20th to an organization that I donate to every year, the Humane Society of the United States. I’m a huge animal lover, I mean, have you looked around my shop? Usually I donate to the HSUS in the form of a Christmas gift to my family, but this year I’m going to be buying them handmade and locally made goodies and supporting the makers behind those businesses. Of course I still want to do my usual donation so I decided to mix it up a bit and give 15% of my online sales from Dec. 1st- Dec. 20th to the Humane Society! I’m really excited about being able to support both artists and great causes this year and if you purchase from my shop you’ll also be supporting both, hooray!

It is the middle of the week so I thought I’d update everyone on what is going down over here at the sass&peril HQ!
First off, Patchwork Long Beach was awesome! Yes, it rained all during setup and it was cold at first, but at 11:00 the sun came out and the day was a blast! It is always so much fun meeting all of you and getting to put a face to the names of my favorite vendors, bloggers, tweeps, and shoppers. Thank you to everyone who stopped by and said hello! This Sunday we are at it again but this time with Patchwork in Culver City. The forecast calls for rain yet again, but guess what? The event is now indoors! We are booth #78 in the Washington Room of the Helms Bakery. Looking forward to another fun-filled weekend of Patchworkin’!
Next I’d like to share a brand new item that I just added to the webshop and Etsy. I debuted these cards at Patchwork this past weekend and am happy to finally have them up online. This “Pattern Series” Stationery 8-pack features a hand-drawn and hand-screenprinted Southwestern motif. There are 8 cards in the pack, 2 of each color. Since they are sold in “bulk” each card is a mere $3.25. That is a savings of $1.75 per card so stock up or give a pack as a gift for the Holidays!
I hope everyone is having a great week!!

Wow, so I have a lot to share! I have designed, screenprinted, photographed, and added 7 new cards to the shop. And speaking of online storefronts….I have opened my very own online shop! That’s right, you can now purchase directly from me. I am still keeping my Etsy shop, but I will eventually have everything on my website seamlessly integrated into the new sass&peril shop. Please pardon my virtual dust as I work on getting all this coded but I am very excited about having a one stop shop via my site!
I’m also happy to announce that we’ve been accepted into Unique LA’s Holiday Show at the California Market Center, December 3 + 4! This show has been such a blast to do and I have had the opportunity to meet so many great people, both buyers and vendors alike! To view our full pop-up shop schedule for the next two months check out the events page. Hope to see you at a show soon!
I hope everyone is off to a great start this week, Happy Monday!
