behind the scenes – Between the Sheets 2013 Holiday Pop up Shop

12.17.2013 by btslingerie // 2 Comments

The month leading up to the holidays is always a whirlwind, and well ours lived up to that. We had a ton of merchandise restocked the week before and after thanksgiving (and we’re still working on more) Then we had a sample sale and this pop up start on the same day the week after Thanksgiving. The pop up lasted two weeks and was organized by alumni of Design Entrepreneurs NYC,a program for emerging designers funded by the NYCEDC, we were in the first class about a year ago! The pop-up boasted a whopping 30 designers in a ton of categories, and here’s a peek at our little Between the Sheets nook.

Pop up Shop – A look Behind the Scenes

We went for a ski-chalet feel with faux sheepskin, warm browns,  faux everygreen/log printed fabric, and lots of little wood/snowy details – even electric tea lights to make a little faux fire!

Dressing up our window spot we played on the gold in our Leopard Play holiday collection with gold ornaments.

It snowed both weekends we were at the pop-up, so the cozy decor definitely kept us feeling warm.

On the last day it was a little hard to say goodbye to the beautiful little nook, but we packed it up in a record 15 mins!

Decorating our Pop up Shop

Our booth didn’t come together overnight, with a sample sale overlapping the first weekend we had to split our energy so it wasn’t until the week that we got around to making our space feel like home, here’s a look at what a little window dressing can do for bare concrete!

BTS DIY Wooden Signs – logo and social media

I’m a big fan of pinterest as a resource – I use it more often for crafty projects so a quick search yielded a great DIY sign via: Christina’s Adventures

Here for your reference, supplies total around $10 and can be found at a hardware store, You’ll need:

  • liquid nails
  • wooden shims (we used 2 packs of 12″ wooden shims for our larger sign, 1 pack for the smaller)
  • wood stain & white or light colored paint

As Christina suggested, I used cans as an easy way to hold down the shims as the liquid nails was drying. Notice the fashionable WWD news is our dropcloth!

From top left clockwise: Liquid nails and can weights, dried and hardened shims with stain applied, stencil printout laid over dried/stained wood for tracing, painting in between the lines.

sign number one: our logo. As I was painting I laid out the stencil in front as a reference just in case my tracing wasn’t crystal clear I could see what it was supposed to look like. Note: I broke off jagged edges on the the thinner end of the shims to give this sign a more weathered look.

Blue Crush – Sapphire September Babes

09.25.2013 by btslingerie // Leave a Comment

Don’t have to be a September Babe to love Blue

blue crush - sapphire hues for september babes

Our designer/founder Layla is a Sapphire September babe, so it’s no surprise that this hue had some nostalgic impact. Prior to starting BTS blue/sapphire wasn’t on her list of go-to colors, but when it came time to carve a niche in sleepwear it became a staple in the BTS rotation – with a myriad of Cerulean hues making there way down the runways this shade is having a moment. Isn’t it appropo that this month heralds the start of fall and the dipping temps that literally give us the blues? We’re cool with fall – as long as we have some coffee and comfy spot to curl up after a long day, how about you?
