Its been awhile since iglubu's last update! We've been really busy around here!

First, this coming weekend iglubu will be participating in a craft fair! Its Depart-ment in chicago! We've been working hard to put together a bunch of cute things for depart-ment.

Second, and very exciting(!) the very smart and lovely Nicole from Pink Loves Brown has started a new webdesign company, Smart & Lovely, and her latest project was a new face lift for iglubu! We're working on the layout, along with lots of new ideas for handbags and much more! We are hoping the new site will launch sometime around Christmas.

This is something ive been working on using the new site design as inspiration. The new site is very inspirational. In the new year, you will notice more diverse advertising, new packaging, new promo ideas and so much more. I am so excited to share everything with you!

Finally, Nicole and I have started a new business, Oh Honestly... Our goal is to provide a resource for independent artists, who are starting their own business, and need help finding reliable companies to deal with. We are working very hard on getting it up and running. You can go check out the website, and it should be fully functional very soon!

For more information about our new look, or about Oh Honestly... please join iglubu's mailing list. We will be offering a special secret discount for newsletter readers when we launch the new website design!

a really long time ago my mom had a dream that i started buying fleece and making the fleece into scarf and mitten sets to hand out to homeless people in the winter time in chicago. ive been thinking a lot about this lately, especially as i am in need of a new winter coat and will probably end up spending $300 on a new coat. many people can not afford to eat, let alone keep warm during the long dark winter months. i figure i could get 2-3 sets out of one yard of fleece. so, maybe for each item i sell on the website, i could donate a portion of that to my scarf and mitten fund.

i was also thinking about having the option of having customers buy a scarf and mitten set for a homeless person for around $2.00. this probably wouldnt cover the whole cost, but i'd be willing to donate the rest of the expense.

what if you were a homeless person? do you think it would be weird to receive this randomly from a person walking down the street?
