When I was back home in Marietta, I told you about meeting up with my dear friend, Debbie, and we had so much fun remembering all the creative fun we’ve had together over the years. Debbie has always been super fun to hang out with, but we never had enough time to do a lot of things together, since she was a full-time Drama teacher at a local Cobb County High School. I used to go over in the summer and hang out with her at her backyard pool, talking decorating and dreaming up fun projects that we wanted to do. She really got a kick out of several of her students leaving comments about recognizing her. I know those of you who had Debbie for a teacher loved her to pieces, like I do!
After 30+ years of teaching, Debbie is now working part time, with hopes of only teaching another year or 2 and she’s already started an at-home business of monograms. It’s time for her creative side to really shine! 
Debbie has the coolest office space/craft room in her basement, complete with a sink. She painted the walls and ceiling all black to give it a studio effect with all of her craft things and this is where the inspiration is born. She got out all of her wares that she is now selling online to show me the line-up. And boy, does she have some cute things! 
See how fun this space is?!
Stacked to the ceiling with all sorts of things, this is where she does all her crafting.

Market Baskets

Diaper Bags

Pouches for cosmetics or what not.

And she sent me my own personalized bag in my signature black/white and lime green. Isn’t it adorable?! I can see this going with me to a Beth Moore conference, holding all my pens and books. 🙂 This is called the Create-A-Bag on the website and she has oodles of fun fabrics and colors.

Oh, I TOTALLY love the market baskets . . . esp. polka dot!!! So cute!
LOVE the Sip n’ Munch! My niece would love that, not to mention her mom would appreciate the handiness! Great stuff, thanks Rhoda for introducing us to another fabulous shop!
If I had to pick just one, the damask bags. But I love the market baskets and my daughter would look so cute with one of those scarves on.
Great shop!
I love the lunch totes and the market baskets!
oooh, i love that market basket!! i would use that all the time!
I love the Market Tote!
I love everything. The Damask print and the zebra are so cute. She has very cute stuff.
I would get the zebra and pink travel bag for my little one! So cute!!

I love the black/white damask duffel bag as well as the blue/brown damask duffel bag. I am a native Californian, but lived in the South (with a capital S) for five years. A love of all things monogrammed is one thing I brought home with me to California. That, and the tendency to let a “y’all” or “all y’all” slip out every so often.
I love the market baskets!! How Cute!! Thanks for the giveaway!!
Miss Lucy’s items are so precious! I love the apron and tote! Thank you for entering my name into the drawing and for introducing us to Miss Lucy!
There is so much I like but I think my favorite is the market basket not sure what coloe I would get in something neutral as I have UGA, FSU &UF fans in my family.
I love all of it but I really love the apron! So cute! I can see a bright green R right in the middle of that bag too!
Thanks for the chance to win!
I love the apron!!! I really need one since I just started baking as a hobby.
Black Houndstooth Market Tote Bag – LOVE IT!!! Great giveaway Rhoda!!!
Wow! It’s all so cute but absolutely love the houndstooth scarves and the pink quilted duffle bag – I’ve been looking for one for my niece for Christmas and think this will be the one!
I love all the bags! A true southern girl always has something monogrammed!!
I L-O-V-E the houndstooth scarf!! I am a ‘Bama girl who lives in Missouri due to the military so I always try and represent the south!
All the items are precious. But picking one, I’d have to say the monogramed cosmetic bag will do just fine. Thanks Y’all !
I love the create a bag but the market basket is a favorite too!
love her cute doggie also.
