We have been working diligently on our web site making it more user friendly.  We are also adding  some new features to Carli's Closet, like a gift registry and gift certificates. 

Next week we will start working on Christmas stockings.  They are going to be cheerfully adorable!  As soon as we get a couple made we will post them on our site!

Montgomery County Fair

Fresh Squeezed Lemonade, Funnel Cakes and Cotton Candy

Yep- It’s Fair time in Montgomery County!

This year Carli entered a pie, quick bread and an Apron in the Junior Non-Livestock Show .

She made 6th place with her pie

  

A blue ribbon with her bread and

Honorable Mention with her apron

 

Cole entered cookies and salsa.  He received a red ribbon on his cookies and blue with the salsa.

The Montgomery County Fair is a family tradition, if you have never been its not to late.  They will have events till Wednesday.  It is  wonderful family fun.  The students work hard on their projects and animals so go out and support them! Here is a link to their website -  Montgomery County Fair or you can find them on fb - Montgomery County Fair Association

This Week…

Bloomers / Diaper Covers

This is a busy week, but I wanted to let ya’ll know we have added bloomer / diaper covers to the Carli’s Closet website.  They come in animal print and solid colors with an adorable ruffle on the back.  They are made of cotton fabric and the ruffle is chiffon.  Too cute.  Here are some pictures of them….

  

PETTISKIRT

 Girls couture from Carli’s Closet.

 This brown and hot pink pettiskirt, has two layers of frilly, soft chiffon, with a pink and brown cheetah print bow on the satin waist .  The matching shirt is a brown lightweight burnout fabric with hot pink rosettes to match the skirt.  This pettiskirt just screams filly, feminine and ruffly!  We will be adding our new edition to the website soon!

It is true: a pettiskirt does make you spin uncontrollably!!

        

So what is a pettiskirt.....

It is a new take on the original petticoat.  Our gorgeous chiffon pettiskirts are a fluffy, billowing, ruffly skirt. You can wear them with boots, flip flops or tennis shoes.  Dress them up or down.  They are the perfect for taking pictures in too.

Your princess will adore wearing a fun tutu, that matches her personality.

Denim Skutu

Denim Skutu (skirt tutu)

Here is another Carli’s Closet original, denim skirt tutu. It is made of a denim skirt with a lot of fluffy purple and pink tulle sewn on the bottom. Tutu's are not just for little girls anymore, tweens and teens can have fun wearing a skutu.

We are excited to start making skirt tutu's and will be making more to sale.  You can pick  your own special color of tulle.  Let us know what you think . 

We would love to make a skutu just for you! 

  

 

 

These are adorable with flip flops or boots.  A skutu is the perfect fashion statement for the rodeo!

Nope, I did not name the skutu, it was already named.

Spring Aprons!

As we say goodbye to sweethearts day.... We say hello to spring aprons.

I love the lime green and pink (of course the pink)

Hosting a party, cooking, or cleaning does not have to be boring any more. Our spring aprons come in vibrant colors, a flirty vintage pattern, and figure flattering shapes. The ultimate fashion accessory in or out of the kitchen!

New Skirt

Here is a skirt Carli made.  She sewed everything but the zipper by herself. 

Way to go Carli!

Fun Spring Colors – Can you tell we are ready for spring?!?!

Lone Star First Saturday – Historic Montgomery Farmers' Market and Acoustic Music Jams

Calling all folks who appreciate homemade, homegrown goodness! The Historic Montgomery Business Association is hosting an old-fashioned Farmers’ Market on the first Saturday of every month, weather permitting, at the corner of FM 149 and College Street in Montgomery, Texas.
The Historic Montgomery Farmers' Market is held each month in conjunction with "Lone Star First Saturday," with the exception of May. It's a fun and educational shopping experience for the whole public, while supporting local farmer's dairies and nurseries. This local market features a wide variety of seasonal fruits and vegetables, eggs, plants, honey, farm products turned into baked goods, jams, jellies, pickles, and salsas, along with homemade wares produced by local artisans. Many participating shops and restaurants offer specials that day. The Market is located at the intersection of FM 149 and College Street. Plus, as an added bonus, "Acoustic Music Jam Sessions" take place on many of the porches of the shops and restaurants from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. Grab your violin, guitar, harmonica, or banjo, and come on down and sit a spell!
