Seeing Double

I had the opportunity this week to take some modeling pics of twin girls! It was so much fun! They are just precious - sweet personalities, and so adorable!

Here they are modeling their "Yo-yo" bows with an initialed covered button on the center. Aren't they so cute as a set? The bows and the girls. =)

Stretch lace headbands - with Pretty Petals in "Dreamy" color.

Aww, I could look at this pic all day - isn't that a precious face?

Overstock Sale Granger!

I'm so excited to let you know that I will be at the Overstock Sale Granger this Friday and Saturday!

What it is - many of the "boutique" stores from around the area, as well as vendors (like me) will be displaying their wares at a central location. This is a way for them to get their names out, and sell their overstocked items at reduced prices. Great deals for everyone!

Friday evening's event is for "VIP's" - which means your name must be on the list to get in! But, it's easy - just let me know you'd like to come! =) Saturday is open to the public. There is no entry fee.

Times - Friday from 5-8 p.m. Saturday from 9-5.

Place - Toscana Park, behind the big new Martin's, in the former "Pages in Time" store.

Who - loads of vendors! Boutique stores from around the area will be displaying their wares!

Stretch-Lace Headbands

These have been a long time in the making, and I don't know why! I really am excited to be able to bring you these. I finally got my catalog updated, and one of the new items in it is these stretch-lace headbands!

I have loads of different colors and widths available; check out the Color Charts page. These are custom-made to order. Measure around babies' head where the headband will sit. Or if you are unsure (or if it's a gift), let me know the age, and I can use my chart to approximate.

So soft and delicate! I love these on a new-born! I do recommend that the decoration be permanently attached to the stretch lace, not interchangeable.

"Mandy" Bow

A new style, just in time for "Back-to-school" -

The "Mandy" bow makes up a great style for going with those preppy polos and khakis!

"Olive You" Olivia Bows!

I love this style as an Easter bow! I recently expanded my selection of "Olivia" bows - hope you enjoy this small selection:

Satin Rosettes

A new creation, just in time for Easter!

These are made in the same style as the "Sheer Rosettes", but with satin.

Aren't they just beautiful?

Available in a wide variety of colors!

Petal Pleasure

Oooh, more little lovelies! I hope you enjoy these pics as much as I enjoyed creating these little charmers! =)

I'm not sure what to call this one! It has several lovely shades of colors - pinks, green, lavender. The gem in the center is a soft purple.

 Here they are on a headband. Remember, these are called "Limited Edition" for a reason - I don't know how long I'll be able to find these particular flowers, so get them while you can!
