For Mackenzie

Another girl. So, more cuteness. I copied this EXACTLY from one my cute friend made me! I LOVE it.

Some fun hair accessories.
And my favorite lil' outfit. Fit for a princess.


Another cute {peacock} romper I couldn't pass up at Target.

For Lisa

My friend Lisa found out she's having twin girls! I decided to make her cute matchy shirts. Faux pearl necklace shirts, with a cute flower. I found the tutorial HERE. I love her rhinestone embellishments. Mine are more plain. But I still like them.

Cute matching onsies with ribbon embellishment. The pictures don't really do them justice, but you can see HERE where I copied it from. I just tweaked it a little for a onsie. And you can see a cute black crocheted headband to go with it.
A pair of poppies. For added cuteness.
And I couldn't pass up these cute rompers at Target.

A Wedding

My good friend Zenny asked if I would help her beautify accessories for her children for a wedding in the family. She bought these dresses for her girls, but wanted to incorporate red and white, which are the other colors in the wedding.

First we made a red sash. She wanted them about three inches thick. Already a lot better.

She wanted to use the length of the fabric, instead of buying more fabric, so no pretty bow on back, but a cool tie and it's still beautiful.
Next, white. I thought a beautiful pin for the sash would look lovely.

And of course headbands and clips.

All in all I made:

4 sashes
2 poppy pins
5 headbands
3 clips

I've been busy! And she promised beautiful pictures from the wedding. To come soon.

What do you get...

When you take a bunch of fabric...
Random accessories, and 1,200 circles? (That's right. 1,200 circles, hand cut by me and my sis!!!)


A beautiful wedding!

My sister asked me to make her wedding bouquet. I was honored, scared, daunted and willing! It gradually turned into more. :) I was happy to help and even happier that she loved it all. What I ended up making was:

For the Bride:
Bouquet
Veil (which she ended up making)
Veil flower embellishment

Wedding Party:
5 bridesmaids bouquets
1 toss bouquet
5 poppy headbands (bridesmaids)
15 boutonnieres
4 mom/Grandma corsages

Additional family:
6 poppy headbands for nieces
2 stretchy headbands for baby nieces

It was a long process, but I was glad I could be such a big part of her wedding. Here are some shots.


Bride's bouquet:


Bridesmaids bouquets:
Veil with flower
Boutonniere
Bridesmaids headbands:
Nieces headbands:
Baby headbands (sorry for the bad pic')

(I didn't get a picture of the Mom corsages, but it pretty much looked like the baby headband, with out the band...)

And the beautiful couple!
