Upcoming Valentine's day for Silly Geese who love Coffee? It's You, Hi, You're the problem...

    Christmas lights back in a tote all jumbled in a ball, tree packed away, house getting back into order.

Or maybe none of the above because you've been fighting a yucky crud for the past 3 weeks? Just me? If you see my immune system wandering around out in the wild looking confused please direct it home. I miss it.

Looking forward to the next big holiday, Valentine's Day! Of course, I had to take a fun farm themed approach here.  A line of silly geese decked out in heart themed apparel?  Check:

 
If you are a silly festive goose you might just love this tee.  It is made of a super comfy and stretchy jersey knit, great for casual wear or layer it with a cute pink themed outfit on as shown above.

Also...if you LOVE a silly festive goose I suggest this tshirt as the perfect present to show your love. Matchy matchy is the ultimate lovey dovey proof of a relationship I've ever seen:

 

 
OK, maybe that it a wee bit too THEME for you.  Maybe you would prefer a simple normal style that can be used year round AND for the Valentine's red and pink general color scheme season:



1. MAMA Hoodie Sweatshirt

2. MAMA Crewneck Sweatshirt

3. MAMA Red plaid tshirt

Another multi season design that can work year round is this cute multicolored I Heart Coffee tee, hoodie, and sweatshirt:


1. I Heart Coffee Hooded Sweatshirt

2. I Heart Coffee Crewneck Sweatshirt

3. I Heart Coffee Tshirt

Alright. Now maybe you just aren't so particularly fond of this upcoming holiday because you've recently gotten out of a difficult or damaging relationship. I haven't left you out!  Here you go: It's You, Hi, You're the Problem, It's YOU:


This is a change up and play on words from the lyrics of a popular song 'Anti-Hero' by Taylor Swift.

So whether or not you are celebrating this upcoming Valentine's Day, remember:

💗YOU are Loved 💗

Monster Trucks for my little guy...

        My little guy LOVES trucks, trains, cars, construction vehicles, and airplanes.  However, monster trucks hold a special place in his heart!  So I asked him to help me and we came up with "the cooooolest monster truck, Mom!" design for him.   It's reminiscent of retro throwback monster trucks, similar to the iconic 'Bigfoot' from 1979.

My little guy happily goes to school multiple days a week wearing his monster truck hooded sweatshirt.  He got it in black because he is an outdoorsy boy and white won't stay white long!

Vintage Dutch Girl Etsy Monster Truck Youth Hoodie:

 

Since we just loved it so much we went from there to create a patterned Monster Truck Sherpa Blanket available in multiple sizes:

 

And then decided to REALLY have some fun.

So we created a Custom Monster Truck Velveteen Blanket that you can get personalized for your favorite monster truck enthusiast!  You can choose your custom name (up to 12 characters) upon checkout:

   

Cool, huh!?   What kid doesn't want their name on their blanket!? 

 

Then, as you've likely already spotted, there is the coordinating Monster Truck Broadcloth Decorative Throw Pillow:

Now, if you just are looking for something a little bit simpler, I did make available a classic unisex fit t shirt in a variety of colors.

Monster Truck Youth T Shirt:


We also made available a classic crew neck unisex sweatshirt.

So there you have it. From one little boy a whole bunch of fun items from clothing to bedroom decor to cozy blankets!  Such a helpful lil dude he is :)

Today is a good day to be kind...

 Today is a good day to be kind.

    Everyone is fighting a battle you know nothing about.  Much of what happens to us actually has nothing to do with us. What do I mean?  How someone chooses to treat you says everything about their character and nothing about yours. Their behavior isn't personal.  So. That gives us permission to stop taking things personally.  It is an incredibly freeing perspective shift.

    Does that mean we have no responsibility here? No. It goes both ways. How YOU treat others says everything about YOUR character.  Choose to continue acting purposefully in a way that is God honoring and is in line with your character.  What is that called??? INTEGRITY. 

New today in the Vintage Dutch Girl Etsy Shop is this new graphic design to remind ourselves and others to act in accordance with our character:

 
BE KIND
 
BE LIFE

BE TRUE

BE LOVE

Christmas Goats and Peppermint Mochas...

    Today, brand new in the Vintage Dutch Girl Etsy shop, is a few last minute Christmas and holiday themed apparel items.

Cute animals in rows is a popular clothing trend right now, here is my take on it:

Christmas goats, wearing knit sweaters and santa hats. Adorable! It's a mama goat with her three kids:

This crewneck sweatshirt comes in a variety of colors to choose from. 

Next up is one of my fave's, a Peppermint Mocha. YUMMM.  The colder weather coffee drinks are so good.

 
And lastly, a women's t shirt with a ski chalet retro style poster in the middle of the busy skiing season:
 
 
    All the rest of the Vintage Dutch Girl Etsy shop Christmas and Holiday items (I think there are 38 right now!) can be viewed by clicking HERE.

Merry Christmas to you and yours!

PNW Exploring...and wives who steal hoodies...

    We are located in the Pacific Northwest.  One of THE most beautiful areas of the world.  We have stunning mountain range views and driving over the passes makes you feel closer to our creator.  My husband is a huge fan of exploring those mountains, rivers, trails....and places with no trails. I blame his brother mostly for those off the beaten path jaunts.  Lot of adventuring and exploring!

In honor of that love of exploring we came up with a vintage mountain poster style design that I just love:

 

The front of the hoodie sweatshirt has the word 'Explore' on the front left side in orange.  Comes in many colors if the gold yellow is a wee bit too bold for ya! Find it HERE.

Decided we need t shirts in this design too, in soft style unisex fit:

 
 
Find them HERE.

OK, we all know that if a wife's husband has this hoodie sweatshirt...you WILL be stealing it. I think it's in the marriage vows somewhere that a husband MUST share their cozy hoodies without complaint:

 
What a blessing that we can explore nature and discover new beautiful areas in our world. Feeling thankful today for creation.

In which we reevaluate Donkeys...and decide they need sweaters!

     OK, I have lived most of my life unaware of how sweet and adorable donkeys are. Um, how did I not know this?!   Following a few farmy Instagram accounts has caused me to reevaluate my opinions of these sweet creatures.  They apparently are incredibly sweet and cuddly. Also can be quite territorial.  Did you know that??   See? All sorts of new things we did not know!  (If, in fact, you DID already know that, you get a gold star for the day.)

Also, raise your hand if you've ever heard the song by Lou Monte 'Dominick the Italian Christmas Donkey'.  It's the hilarious cousin to 'I wanna hippopotamus for Christmas',  Both obscure animals with their own festive holiday song.  Go listen a moment, then pop on back.

I decided we need a sweatshirt featuring a cutie pie Christmas donkey wearing a festive knit sweater and hat.  It's an ugly sweater type Christmas sweater....except it isn't ugly. It's adorable: 

Adorable Christmas Donkey Crew Neck Sweatshirt.

Comes in white, black, red, green, navy, light gray, and dark gray.

And then, because I just  can't help myself, I decided we needed just regular cutie pie Christmas Donkey tshirts too. Both in Unisex fit, and Women's fit:


 
    And of course there might be adorable Festive Donkey shirts and sweatshirts for the kiddos too.  I'll pop back around soon to show you those soon. Now, the only problem that remains is naming this cutie. Any ideas?

What is a group of butterflies called?

 DID YOU KNOW!? I did not until a few minutes ago.

A kaleidoscope! A group of butterflies is called a kaleidoscope. So cool!

We are avid butterfly fans here. When we visited Arizona earlier this year we went to the Scottsdale Butterfly Wonderland. What a treat! We honestly didn't expect to have that much fun!  We had butterflies landing on our heads, riding on our shoulders...even the little kids got to help release newly hatched butterflies into their huge conservatory.


I highly recommend it if you are in the area!

So my daughter loves butterflies and asked for a butterfly t shirt. She wanted something simple and casual but with a pretty design. An easy shirt to throw on with jeans and all-stars.  Of course, we got right to work. Here's what we came up with. It's subtle, muted colors, very boho chic:

 
And yes, she asked for a crew neck sweatshirt too. We really liked how this sand color worked well with our butterflies:




Check out the Vintage Dutch Girl Etsy shop for more styles of shirts: oversized unisex fit, hoodies, zip front sweatshirts, and more.
 
Off to design some more!

Mustard Yellow Love...

Playing in my virtual closet again! This time a warm winter outfit with mustard yellow accent colors. This outfit features the Vintage Dutch Girl Mustard fleece infinity scarf:


https://www.etsy.com/listing/84763074/mustard-infinity-scarf-burnt-umber?ref=shop_home_active


A great scarf for super cold climates. We are at 23 degrees today at 8:10 AM and I am hoping for snow for Christmas this year.  It doesn't happen every year so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Feather Print Infinity Scarf

I am LOVING my new feather print infinity scarf!  Awesome jewel tones with pops of bright colors perfect for matching and coordinating with fall colors...and I love jewel tones. They go with my coloring very well. Pastels? Mustard? Oh no. I look HORRID. But saturated deep teals, oranges, greens, blues? Oh yes.



And now that the weather has turned chilly I am wearing jeans, one of my infintiy scarves, and a cardigan nearly every day! Here is the latest outfit design board I created using the Feather Print infinity scarf:

Find more outfit ideas on my Stylin' board over on Pinterest:
