Birthday Girl!

What kind of Mommy would I be if I didn't show you all pictures of my little ones? =) Here's Diana wearing her special birthday outfit that I made for her.

She's all girl - loves the princessy, frooffy, glittery, pink stuff! She had a ball (a princess ball, that is!) =) at her party, soaking up all the attention and fun. It was so much fun to see her enjoyment! I hope it made up for 4 missed birthdays. Happy birthday, sweetie pie! Mommy loves you!

Sheer Princess - Stepped Up

I have a friend who's great at coming up with new combinations for me to try out! She liked both the sheer princess and tailored bows, and was having a hard time deciding. We finally came up with a sheer princess with spikes! I was really pleased with how cute it came out:

So, thanks for the inspiration, Rachel - too bad I already have a Rachel bow, so I can't name this after you! =)

Easter Egg Headband Colors

I had a request for a headband to match the yellow rufflie bow, which sent me on a fun adventure! I ended up making a couple batches of yellow - one that matches the "banana" ribbon perfectly, and one that matches the soft maize yellow of the rufflie bow. I also made a bunch of other new spring colors, just because I love them so much: a light coral, mint, aqua and light blue. Here's a couple pictures to show how great these look with the rufflies.

Bring on Spring!

I'm so ready for spring! Springy colors are my favorites, so it's been so much fun updating the bow styles with spring colors. Here's some Cambrie bows - don't they look like they belong in a little egg carton? =)

Here's a "one of a kind" bow, made with sheer and marabou. Very airy and feminine. A little big, but not very heavy! =)

Love those Rufflies!

I am thoroughly in love with the rufflie bow, as I'm sure many of you are. They are so sweet! I'm now up to 23 colors, with the addition of maize yellow, ocean blue and lemon grass. I'll have to get a picture of them up soon. For now, here's Diana wearing the maize and creamcicle:

These match Gymboree's "Daisy Days" collection - one of my faves!

Just in time for spring - some new sheer rosette colors! Here's the currently in stock colors:

A favorite

One of the first korkers that I made was to match a gymboree line, Spring Rainbow. Since then I can't tell you how many of these I've sold - it seems to be my most popular color combo:Here's Diana wearing this combo in a set of mediums:

p.s. - the day after I posted this, I had someone order THREE sets of these! She said they are for party favors, which I thought was a great idea!

Second most popular is the neopolitan mix:

The Elena Bow

Here's a fun bow! I love the shape of this one! (I know, I know, I say every new one that comes out is my favorite!) =) This is my "Elena" bow. It's related to the "Gracie" bow, in that it has the same folding technique. Which works out well, because the two little namesakes are sisters!This bow is made with 1 1/2 inch ribbon for a larger bow, or 7/8 ribbon for a smaller bow:I've been having a lot of fun with this bow! It even has a lovely boutique version:

New Ruffle Ribbon

Three new colors have been added to the collection, bringing the total up to a nice round 20 colors!
New colors are: light navy, shocking pink and creamcicle.
