I wish I had a great story, but I really don't. It is quite simple actually; one day a friend of mine said I should make clothing so I did.
I wish I could say I started because I could not find any cute clothes for my kids, but surely that is not a problem. I wish I could say I am a "designer", but I pretty much just consider myself a girl who can't stop her brain from spinning.
The one thing I do not have to wish for is a great family and group of friends. These guys are what makes Matilda Jane rock. They are loyal and well-loved. They are also very patient for putting up with me and the ventures I pursue, sometimes on a whim. Oh, I do love them all.

Oh Denise,
You make me laugh. You are as bad as I am. Everything I like is top dollar. I have expensive taste on a diet coke budget. Love you choices though. When are you going to do some giveaways?? :O) OMG I am one of the first posts. I cant believe it.
D
I keep saying one day I will press submit on my large purchases….one day.
Oh gosh, I can’t afford any of that! Target though, I can afford Target!
LOVE Room and Board… Hope they decide to ‘barter’ with you!
U r so funny denise!
Now you know how we feel when we load up our MJC carts……..lol
Love this! Too funny!
ROTFL! That is toooo funny! Dare to dream, and who knows but maybe it will happen!

Love your choices Denise. You know our entire house is R&B, right? When are you coming to visit us and the Walleye?
Geeze girl! And here my husband thought I had expensive taste. I ain’t got nothin on you!
What fun to “window” shop!
That rockin’ cowhide chair for $3 Grand reminds me of the Cow Jumper…still one of our faves!
Love the new blog header!
Can’t wait for spring…
I do the same thing with cameras and lenses… but I have nothing good to offer for trade, lol.
I’ve never done a wish list online, but it sure looks fun! I do tend to make checkmarks or dog-ear pages in all of the wonderful catalogs that come to my home. It’s definitely fun to dream and dream big! I hadn’t ever heard of Room and Board, but now I have another website to look at while we are all snowed in here in Indiana! I am looking forward to making my list when Hammond Bay debuts! My poor husband! LOL
Oh, Denise how many times have I wished to fill a cart like that, pay for it and have NO REGRETS!!! How much fun would that be!!!!! The suspense of Hammond Bay is making me crazy….
We are anxiously awaiting Hammond Bay! We can’t wait to see it!
I’m working on it right now!!!
I’m an awesome cook and used to be a bartender.
I’d trade food and Cap’t for clothes!!
You mean people buy new furniture? If it all cost that much…no wonder why my hubby won’t buy us new stuff! :0p
Looking forward to the new line!!! LOVE what I’ve seen so far! :0)
Yeah!! Thanks Denise! I’ve been counting down the days until Wednesday!
Denise-
I do the same thing….add items to my cart….and then see the total and just laugh. The only difference is I am shopping for kids clothes:) I think I need to start playing the lottery:)
Lovin’ the new Platinum pics!
After our recent visit to Room&Board I fell in love with the Wegner Shell Chair. Let’s just say I got vetoed, but it’s sure great to dream!
Honestly Denise, with all your MJC success…I’m surprised you can’t just check out your cart?!? You deserve it!
Your list looks a lot like mine. I found some great “look alikes” at overstock.com! I was surprised at what they have and the great prices!
Price these items out through a Knoll dealer (I saw in here somewhere you too had a love of the womb chair!) or through Herman Miller. They might be able to get you a better price, and they’re the original pieces, ironically enough. It’s like buying art…it increases in value over time:)!! Check them out…any pricing is LIST so get in touch with the rep who willgive you better pricing!!!
Thanks, I;m on that….I’m on a furniture kick today!
