Easter Twirl Skirt Set

I am so excited to share this skirt set with you today! I worked finally finished the set on Sunday and couldn't wait to get pictures! Thankfully, I finished it before it got dark, dressed G so she could model and here it is! It debuted on my facebook page earlier this week- so if you're a fan there, you've already seen it. 
The twirl skirt is made with a mustard yellow polk a dot fabric and a coordinating grey chevron trim. The shirt is embellished with a bunny.

This outfit is perfect for hunting eggs on Easter afternoon, but it's also great to wear all spring!
The matching hair flair is made with three grey rosettes and yellow chevron ribbon made into a layered bow- topped off with a sparkling jewel.
G loves it, and i'm working on a matching skirt for MC.

The girls are going to wear this for their spring pictures at school.!
Thanks G for being my little model!

I'm wanting to add more of these to my page, so if you're interested in being a "tester" just comment "tester" in a message, and you'll get 10% off in exchange for letting me test out more skirts and a picture of your little honey pie modeling their skirt!

Bibs, Burpies, and Bows

I have been a sewing mad woman lately! I have just finally gotten back all of my energy and motivation to put towards sewing and bow making that I've been working my tail off.... okay, well maybe not, but I have been sewing more often lately, and my husband has been great about giving me a few hours a few nights a week after the girls are asleep. There has been at least one afternoon a week, where I take the girls up to the playroom and let them play while I sew and work on projects, and then we go down for dinner, clean up and goodnights, and I go back up for more sewing time. It really has been working out well, and i'm just feeling very blessed. And, I really owe most of that to my husband whose been so supportive and to my customers and fans!

My principal at one of my elementary schools is due with her first child in April! Not the best timing for a principal, but she's thrilled- as she should be- and i'm sort of jealous she'll have April through August off with the baby! This is her first little girl, and I just had to make her a few burpies!
I added applique flowers at the opposite end of one of the burpies just for a whimsical touch.
And, she's receiving a matching yo-yo hair clippie as well! I'm also going to purchase a few small things off her registry to make this a complete gift!
I went to Hobby Lobby the other day and I fell in love with this chick Easter fabric. I don't know why I bought it, because the girls don't need anything out of the material, but it spoke to me and said, "Make me a bib"....... and i'll be making a burpie too.

I just think it would be so cute in baby's first Easter basket! Too bad that baby A isn't coming soon, so this bib is up for grabs if you know of anyone or if you yourself are due with a baby soon! It's $8.00 plus S&H.
I offered a sale last week on my facebook page for $3.00 boutique bows. One of my old college friends purchased three for her baby girl due in April. Here's one of her bows! An adorable lime green boutique bow!
I also have these "Big Sister" "Litlte Sister" boutique bows ready to ship! Buy just one for $6.00 or get them both for $10.00! (I need to find "big sister", "middle sister", and "little sister" ribbon fo rmy girls!)
I had just enough ribbon to make this mod-dot half pinwheel bow, and it's only $4.00! What a steal!!!
And finally, these bow flip flops!!!!!!
No lie, I have had three pair of flip flops in my craft supplies for two years. Just sitting there... waiting. I purchased some new ribbons this week, and then I realized how cute they'd be on the flip flops! So, here they are, after waiting for two years! I also have two pair of yellow flip flops that I'll be working on soon!

These flip flops are 8 inches in length, but fit my 5 year old's size 10/11 foot.

These flip flops are ready to ship for just $15.00!

Thank you so much for keeping me motivated and allowing me to share my creations with you! I'ts more than just an accessory..... it's a lifestyle!

Snow Day

Last week we had snow in Oklahoma! I know this isn't a rarity, but I was finally okay with it snowing. I was so over snow after living in Indiana for four years, that I could care less if I ever see it again. I went to work last Wednesday morning in the snow and was convinced that we'd be able to leave at a half day. Alas, it was not in the cards, and I was stuck at work all day and the girls were stuck at preschool.

But, when we got home, there was still snow and G was begging to play with our neighbors!

She really wanted to build a snowman!
Our neighbor, who moved from Florida about a year ago, was very impressed with G's snowman making skills! 

MC got in on the action and helped G. It warms my heart to see the girls playing together.

Our neighbor had out his sled and the girls had fun being pulled around. (Ours was in the attic.) Once MC was in there, we couldn't get her out! 
After playing for about 45 minutes, G was freezing and we headed inside to warm up. We don't have proper snow gear here, and had to make do with what we had. 

I made the girls hot chocolate and we immediately changed into our pj's and sat by the fire!

Tutu's, Flair, & a Bib

I put this shirt up for auction on facebook about a week ago, and I was so thrilled when someone bid on it! I started making these last fall, and then went back to my more traditional applique's, but I love this look and was so excited to be making another one! The lady that won the auction, left the fabric choices up to me, letting me know it was a baby gift.

I looked through my fabric stash, and was originally thinking chevron, until I found this fabric. It's such a fun bright color and will be perfect for this summer!
The pin is detachable and is hand sewn. I added the lime green flower for a fun touch!
The headband is made with the same fabrics and are three rolled rosettes clustered together.

I just love how it turned out!
I also had a recent order for sister tutu's, and this is the infant one i've made. I still need to make the big sister tutu, but their mom just welcomed baby #6 (yes, SIX!) and doesn't need them until Easter, so i'm making the other this weekend. She chose purple, light blue, pink, and touches of gold.

I think it would also make the cutest Sofia the 1st inspired tutu!
Another auction item was for a fabric tutu skirt. Again, it's something that I wanted to make another variety of, and the customer chose purple, pink, and yellow to match the onesie that her daughter would be wearing in her Easter pictures.

I also made a hair clip to match!

And, I think it could be a super cute Rapunzel inspired tutu as well!
The hair clip was made using a fabric flower puff, as well as three rolled rosettes and a piece of purple tulle.
Now on to a few ready-to-ship items! I love when I have the time and energy to create my own pieces!

The first piece is a satin peach colored flower clip. It's simple and beautiful and I totally think an adult could get away wearing this piece in their hair!
I have been wanting to make bibs with minky backing for a while, and I finally purchased the minky fabric at the beginning of the month, but let me tell you, I was super intimidated. I've heard horror stories about sewing on minky, but I was bound and determined to try it out!

It wasn't as bad as I thought, and I love how this green damask bib turned out! I think it works for boys and girls, for St. Patrick's day or Christmas!
Here's the back:
If you're interested in ordering any of these items, please visit my facebook business page or leave a comment on this post! I won't publish comments that have ordering information in them!

I absolutely love creating these custom pieces and I think they'd all make unique, one of a kind baby shower or birthday gifts!!!

And, prices start at just $6.00 for hair bows, and nothing is over $25.00!!!
