Happy Memorial Day!

I hope you have a nice Memorial Day tomorrow! The weather is pretty good in the midwest. It's aways hit and miss here for the holiday. Pools open this weekend here, but you won't catch my day-glow body near a pool until that water has had a couple of weeks to warm up! (That's unless my daughter can convince me otherwise.)

Here is a nice little t-shirt to get you in the holiday mood. It's from a little boutique in our directory called Renegade Handmade, and is sure to bet you in a BBQ frame of mind!

Untraditional Easter

Looking for an Easter item that isn't so sugary sweet? I'm lovin' these Bunny Doll Tee's from Lark! They are available for girls from age 3 to 7. If you still like the thought of sweet gifts, you could toss in a package of Peeps, too!

Johnny Cupcakes in Omaha!

As you may or may not know, I'm a big fan of Johnny Cupcakes. I love the "I started this as a joke from the trunk of my beat up '89 Toyota Camry" rags to riches story.

We featured Johnny Cupcakes on Boutique of the Week a while back.

Well it turns out, Mr. Johnny Cupcakes himself is doing a college lecture series and is coming to Creighton University in Omaha next Thursday, Feb. 18th. His lecture focuses on starting a brand and business (both web based and retail) with little or no start up money, entrepreneurship, the importance of branding, small business management, product development and marketing as well as communication and graphic design.

If you can't make it to a lecture, check out the web site. They sell pretty nice stuff!

SMASH into Raygun

My favorite T-shirt store in Des Moines, Iowa just changed their name.

This is the reason why:
