Taking Myself Too Seriously

OK, it's obviously been more than a month, and no new posts.  It's not like I haven't done this before, but, like my last blog, I feel I need to have a richly fascinating post with amazing photos each time I add to my blog.  Do I expect that from others? No, of course not. Do I expect that from myself? Yes, of course I do.  My goal is to post a couple times a week with what I am doing, even if it isn't directly related to my designs.  After all, I can't take myself too seriously.  I will just make myself too crazy.

So, here are some pics of new scarves I've made that are hand-dyed, but not tie-dyed, and I just love them.  Then I have to  go catch-up on "Project Runway" and get inspired. Thank you for your patience.

Let Me Introduce Myself

olive m'lou began about a year ago as a line of hand-dyed scarves and has expanded to include hand-made baby items such as rompers/burpies/bibs/legwarmers, hand-crocheted jewelry, hair accessories, and every once in a while some clothing for women.
olive m'lou can be found in some great boutiques and galleries throughout the midwest, and in arizona as well in about a month. i will post as i make deliveries.




i am stephanie, and i am the owner/designer/dyer, etc. i have been thinking about starting the blog for some time. i did have a blog for my previous vintage business, and that was a lot of fun, as i was regularly finding lots more goodies to write about.  my vision for this blog is to make it a lot more than just an advertisement for my creations. i need to make it fun and entertaining. ok... any ideas? just kidding. sort of. i'll just start with some pics of some of my favorite recent goodies and go from there.
