I just got finished my largest order to date! 10 earwarmers for the Marian University girls dance team!!!

Check out how cute my friend Katie is (third from the right)! She was a 500 Festival Princess last year and put in the order for her dance team!

Marian's colors are navy blue and gold. I actually love the color combination and think the earwarmers turned out oh-so-fabulous (ifIdosaysomyself)!

I just love that there is a collegiate dance team out there wearing a handmade creation from The Hicks Girls!! (not to mention, they are gorgeous models for me!)

brown paper packages tied up with string.

The orders are FLOODING in as of late (mainly because I've been doing tons of craft shows...makes sense, huh?). I decided that I wanted to make our Hicks Girls packages just as fun as the goodies inside of them.

I mean, everyone loves getting mail...right?

So how much would you love getting one of these in your mailbox, stuffed full of Hicks Girls goodies???

You know I have to keep the fleur-de-lis theme alive and well. And I love how the silver looks against the brown packaging.

Not gonna lie...the ruffles are from old tshirts that I cut up and ruffled. I just think they looks so fun!

first show of the season.

On October 13th, I packed up my little Scion and headed up to Lafayette for...

The Hicks Girls's First Craft Show of the Season!!!

We're mixing up our tactics a little bit this year. Instead of doing all-day craft shows that are open to the public, we are doing more and more in home craft shows with other in home vendors (Lia Sophia, Thirty One Gifts, Tastefully Simple, Scentsy, etc.).

I like this strategy a lot better just because I enjoy talking to people and interacting with them...and you don't really get that option at big all-day craft shows.

So our first show of the season was at my college roommate's house up in Brookston. So not only did I get a chance to hock my stuff, I got to spend some quality time with Linz....which I totes love!!
