Meet Roman






How adorable is this little fur ball?!

Roman is my cousin's new puppy and her family is so in love with him.  My cousin has three little boys that are energetic and super sweet at the same time which is the perfect combination with a pup.  Roman (half yorkie half schnauzer) likes to chase the boys around the house and cuddle up when it's nap time.  Although Roman is a boy, his parents were kind enough to let me photograph a couple accessories on him when I was visiting last.  It's nice to see what my accessories look like on other breeds without short white hair like Stanlee.  The verdict was that Roman looked every bit as adorable :)

Hello Spring







Yesterday I took the pups on a walk around our neighborhood and found little pieces of new life everywhere I looked.  I have been amazed by the awesome weather here in Ohio lately, but I am also excited for what it is doing to the trees, grass and flowers.

Everything is coming to life again.

This week I have worked with the windows open, the sun shining through and a view of bright green grass and growing flowers.

Today I took a walk, played around with my camera and took in all the beauty.

I hope you are able to get out and enjoy this time of year!
Happy first day of spring!

Felt Flowers and Feathers....oh my!

Last week was the week that fabric flowers and feathers took over my work space!  Felt, feathers and strips of cotton fabric were everywhere.  The past couple days I have had the chance to photograph new products and add new listings to etsy, all of which are hair accessories!  It has been a fun week and I can't wait to wear some new flowers myself.  My personal favorite is the berry purple hydrangea hair clip!  I am thinking this clip in white is going to be the perfect addition to my Easter and birthday outfit!

When I was working on new accessories last week, I decided to go ahead and make two or three while I have all the materials out and ready.  All of the cotton fabric flowers have multiples ready to sew on to onesies or have as inventory for future orders or upcoming craft shows.  But then this also got me thinking, what if I sold the fabric flowers in sets?!  How cute would it be to have these little hair clips at a garden party, for bridesmaids, party favors at a little girl's birthday or as photography props for your clients?!  So what I have decided to give a try is a set of 6 = $30 ($5 each equaling $6 savings) and a set of 10 = $45 ($4.50 each equaling $15 savings).  How fun!


You can view all the new listings here.  Thanks for visiting!  Check out a few photos of new listings below.  I will see you tomorrow!












 Each hair clip is machine and hand sewn for lasting quality.

Fresh Picked Flowers

So as mentioned at the beginning of the week, I dedicated this weeks free work time to making new flower accessories!  I have so many beautiful new fabrics and supplies that I have loved getting to cut up and use this week.

My favorite fabric store, Sew to Speak, is located in Columbus, OH which is about an hour and 20 minutes from my home.  Every time I walk in, I am in awe of how adorable their shop is and also the amazing collection of designer fabrics they carry.  Last week, I purchased some of their wool felt for the first time, and I am now hooked!  The quality, colors and feel of the felt is perfect for creating beautiful little flower accessories!  I have not been able to find 100% wool felt like this before.  Below are some of the new items I made this week with my lovely felt.













I would love to hear if there is a favorite of yours!

Also,

Months ago my dad gave me some of my grandma's old lace that he saved, along with lots and lots of buttons.  Since then, I have had a large rubbermaid box filled to the top of all kinds of lace staring at me waiting to be pulled out and experimented with.  Today was that day!  While in the flower mode, I decided to give a lace flower a try.  I must say the colors are not my typical style, but given the right outfit, I would love to wear it this spring!  Take a look...



I am hoping to take pictures this weekend of the new printed cotton fabric flowers I created this week to share with you all!  I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
