Wool Felt Wonders

Introducing our new wool felt Leah clips and bands. Each is handmade of gorgeous, thick wool felt fabric with a texture all its own. Bands are attached to stretch lace and clips are secured to alligator-style clips (and our part of our holiday promo below). They are perfect for ladies of any age and the bands can be made in baby sizes.

Check them out on our etsy shop!

Let it snow.

All of this cold weather and snow is getting us in the holiday spirit around here, and we wanted to share the joy! From now until Christmas, receive your choice of an Ariel clip, Jocelyn clip duo, or one of our new felt Leah clips (stay tuned) with your $20 purchase. Shop early for the widest selection via our etsy shop or our website.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!

Penelope or Pentunia... hmm, which one?

Some of our favorite items we've ever had were our peacock clips (RIP). We've had a lot of requests to bring these back but have discontinued them. We did, however, in the midst of a much-needed inventory cleanup, come across 2 final clips - the Penelope and Petunia. We've listed our final 2 as featured items on our etsy shop for those who have asked.

Bijou Market

We love, love, love the Bijou Market. It's an incredible boutique/marketplace being held this November 19 and 20 in Provo, UT. It features tons (like over 40) unique vendors (like us) who sell beautiful handcrafted items. We've sold here in the past and couldn't be more excited for this year - it seriously is our favorite thing we do all year.

Here's just a glimpse at what some of the vendors will have this year:

We can't wait... and of course - we'll be selling some never-before-seen hair love including some pretty darling baby/tiny girl stuff.

FotoFly Boutique

We're excited to be selling our stuff tomorrow night at the FotoFly Boutique. So if you happen to be in the Draper area, be sure to stop by! There will be awesome local crafters, a raffle, free swag bags for the first 100 and more!

Facebook Giveaway

It's time for an Academy J giveaway! One lucky winner will receive a headband or clip of their choice - that's right... whatever your heart desires. To enter the giveaway, just comment on our facebook post telling us which headband or clip you want!

Da da da DAA!

We are soo happy to announce that we are now beginning to sell Academy J products in a few select stores here in Utah.

Our headbands are cool, but our blog is lame. We kind of maybe want to spice it up a bit. Maybe you could send us a picture of you wearing your one of your AJ headbands? Maybe? Please? If you do, maybe we could, with your permission, post it on our blog to show everyone else how great it looks on you?

Open house.
