It’s been another insane week at cuteheads HQ. I remember the holidays being busy, but this is pretty unusual, even for me. It’s funny how you get used to a certain pace of life though, and I’m sure I’ll be bored come January when everything slows down. Until then, better just to enjoy the ride!
Black Friday was absolutely crazy. This was by far the best year ever for cuteheads, which I’m so thankful for, and the holiday weekend was certainly my best weekend ever, sales-wise. Shown here are some of the Dalia Dresses & Everly Dresses we’ve pre-cut to get sewn and shipped to new homes. We had lots of great sales going on, and in case you’re not in the know, I ran an email-only one hour 40% off the entire site “Happy Hour” sale on Friday afternoon, and I never expected people to respond like they did. And PS, if you don’t want to miss more amazing deals like that, sign up to receive emails at cuteheads.com đ. These are maybe a TENTH of the orders we’ll be filling. We’re getting everything cut and ready to ship well before Christmas, but it’s a liiiittle hectic right now.
Looking at everyone’s Christmas pictures, I almost forgot Chanukah starts in 3 days! I busted out th menorahs and the dreidels to prepare our house for the fun. Now all we need is some latkes, and we’ll be set.
This past weekend, we threw our daughter her 2nd birthday party! It was unicorn themed, and Miss J’s Sugar Cookies knocked it out of the park with these little guys. More pics from that day to come.
Houston bloggers gathered to celebrate the launch of my friend David Peck’s new line, Miles David Atelier. Both small business owners in a city not known for textiles and manufacturing, David and I have been friends for years and have commiserated over the challenges of running a clothing business here. He is insanely talented, and his new collection is sparkly, edgy and sophisticated. Unfortunately, not maternity. I’ll be back in February to shop.
And lastly, but certainly most important, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my sweet, darling girl, who I look at every day and can’t believe is mine. I wrote her an open letter yesterday, in case you missed it.
Have a great weekend!
I love those unicorn cookies! What a cute theme and beautiful girl! Happy birthday! xo-

Thanks Wendie!!
How cute is that little lady with her princess four wheeler?!?! Love it! My little girl has one too and she has gotten a lot of use out of it. It sounds like you were busy and I hope it slows down a little for you to enjoy all the goodness this holiday season.
They love those little Power Wheels, don’t they?! Thank you lady!
Congrats on your shop’s success! I’m so happy to hear you have been busy đ Those unicorn cookies are so special- I bet your daughter loved them.
She did! She got cookies AND cake… Always a good day for a toddler. â¤ď¸
Wow! So much going on! First, many congratulations on your shop sales over the weekend!! Second, those cookies are so FANTASTIC!! Hope you are able to enjoy the holiday season with your daughter, she is at such a magical age!
Thank you so much, I couldn’t agree more! This is such a fun age!!
How awesome are those unicorn cookies! Also, congrats on your shop sales over the weekend, I am sure it is a great feeling!
Such a great week! Love the smile on your girls face! My twins just had a unicorn themed party for their big 5! Would have loved those cookies!!
A Unicorn theme for a birthday party sounds awesome! I have to agree about the pace of everything right now – it is absolutely insane! I used to despise January (after Christmas blues and all) but now I think I am looking forward to it, so we can sit back and relax a bit!
Congrats on everything and the party looks so cute! Miss J’s are the best I have used her before and grew up with her sister in law
Congratulations on a successful week. Your friend David is immensely talented – that dress is insanely gorgeous!
Awwww! Happy birthday to your little one and congrats on your Black Friday sales! It’s always heartening to hear about small business doing well!
Lots of cute stuff, and holy crap those unicorn cookies are adorable!
I really adore those unicorn cookies. So precious!
I also can totally relate to this season being so fast … I don’t know where the time has gone, and we don’t even have our tree yet!
Happy Holidays đ
Sounds like a busy week. Your darling daughter is adorable. Happy Birthday to her!
Those unicorn cookies are seriously the best cookies I’ve seen in a long time. How awesome. Sounds like you had a busy and great week!
Well done on your Black Friday sales you deserve it after all your collection is stunning and if it was available in the UK I would buy it. I would like to see a post where you take us behind the scenes so we can see how the tailoring process comes about.
I have yet to bust out my Menorah’s. Totally need to clean the carpet in my dining room first so that’s next on my list. Hope you have a wonderful week.
My daughter is into unicorns. She would have adored these cookies. Congratulations on your success. and happy birthday!
Congrats on your Black Friday sales. Sounds like you have had a very busy week! Love the unicorn cookies for your daughter’s birthday. What a fun theme! Hope you have a wonderful Chanukah.
I am dying over those unicorn cookies. How precious! And now I’m also daydreaming about throwing a unicorn party for a certain little lady!
Those unicorn cookie look wonderful, I wanted one as soon as I saw it! Lol!!! And the event looked to be very fun as well. I wish they had those type of evens here in my city.
Are you serious? Those Unicorn cookies are too much â I can’t handle the cuteness. And, I also love that grey dress that you featured in this post â I would definitely wear thatâŚso pretty.
Wowie, you’re busy! Also, your menorahs are so cool! I love creative ones!!!
