XOXO – The Sunny Slide Up Girls

I came across this story this weekend and it made me smile so much.
It is the story of a man and his tutu. And so much love.
After Bob Cary’s wife Linda was diagnosed with breast cancer, he began taking photos of himself in nothing but a pink tutu. The idea behind the photographs was to get his wife to laugh during her chemo treatments. Others loved the photos so much that he went on to create ‘The Tutu Project’, which helps raise money for breast cancer research. www.thetutuproject.com

There is a book “Ballarina” available for purchase HERE.
And a calendar, “The Tutu Project” available for purchase at Barnes & Noble.
There are also postcards and prints available for purchase on The Tutu Project website. A portion of every sale goes to The Carey Foundation.
Watch this video about their story….
If a man in a tutu dancing all over the world for his wife doesn’t scream love, I don’t know what does.

Mandi and Heather visited the Vintage Charlotte Holiday Market last weekend and had a blast combing through all of the booths to find vintage and handmade treasures!
You might remember Vintage Charlotte from last month’s giveaways. We had an Instagram contest to win a beautiful set of vintage bowls and also featured some goodies (including an early bird ticket to this show) in our local Charlotte giveaway package. Congrats again on our winners!
There were so many awesome vendors at this pop up market and some had the best displays of their goodies. Just look at how cute this booth set up is from The Brass Grasshopper!
These were some of our other favorites…
Handmade accessories and art by Free Spirit Jenny
Letterpress Coasters by Vintage Concord
(Mandi and Heather being graphic designers are a sucker for letterpress!)
Paper and Light Sculptures by Kathryn Godwin
Jewelry from Here a Chick, There a Chick
Vintage Children’s Books from Vintage Southern
Here is Ms. Vintage Charlotte herself, Amy Herman.
You put on a great event Amy! We look forward to next year!
