New Item and Custom Requests

Happy Monday everyone!  We have a new pouch that has been posted to the shop.  If you have not already seen "Elegance", stop by and check it out.  Here are a few shots of this beautiful case.

I have had a lot of people asking if I take custom orders.  The answer is YES!  In fact, most of the work I have been doing lately is custom orders.  This explains the lack of new items in the shop.  I will do two types of custom orders.

Client provided fabrics:  If you have a specific fabric that you want your case made out of I will work with it.  A lot of people have knitting bags or project bags that they would like their cases to match.  I totally get it!  Send your fabrics our way, we will gladly work with you and your fabrics.

Pick from our stash:  Did you favorite a pouch with intentions of getting it come payday and someone beat you to it!?  As long as I can still get my hands on the fabric I will gladly make one for you.  If you also have in mind something you would like but don't see it in my stash I will work with you to find what you are looking for.  Below are some pictures of things I currently have in stash.  Please make sure to look at our past sales to get ideas of some of the pouches we have done.


As always, never hesitate to convo through Etsy or email me at trinitystrinkets@hotmail.com.  Cheers!

For all of my crafty creative friends


For all of my crafty creative friends,

I am going to start featuring other artists on my blog for Trinity’s Trinkets.  I strongly believe in supporting other artist and sharing their works.  If you would be interested in having your work featured on my blog please submit the following to me.
  • A picture of yourself in your studio space either working on a piece (preferably) or posed.  If you don’t already have one of these it is a great thing to have and use as you are self promoting.
  •  3-4 pictures of some of your creations.   As always I would post what you are most proud of.
  •  Links to the following if you have them:
o   A blog
o   Etsy shop
o   Website
o   Artfire
o   If you have none of the above please provide your contact information should people want to know more about your creations.
  • Please answer the following questions about yourself and your art.
o   Tell us a little about yourself
o   Where does your inspiration come from?
o   Who has influenced you the most in your creations?
o   How would you describe your creative process?
o   How do you get out of creative ruts?
o   What advice would you give to aspiring artists?

Please submit all the information to me by email at:  trinitystrinkets@hotmail.com
I’m not sure yet how often I will do this.  I would like to do it weekly but may start out monthly to get it going.
I look forward to receiving everyone's entries.  Please feel free to pass this along to other artists as well.  I would love to feature a wide variety of artists.

Back from holiday!

After a few days off for holiday we are getting back into the studio.  The needle pouch section is looking rather empty!  I have been super busy with a few custom orders and have not had a chance to replenish the available pouches in the shop.  I do have one new case that I just released.  Check it out!

Available now in the shop!
I do have a few custom orders to finish this weekend but should be able to get a new pouch or two in the shop this coming week.  It is supposed to be a beautiful sunny weekend which makes for a great atmosphere in the studio.  I tried to capture this beauty below but did not have much luck.  It is so much prettier than this! 

The sun coming in the windows bouncing off the yellow just makes it so nice to work in!

This is the wonderful new chair my hubby got me.  SO much easier for me to work in.
