garland curtains.

i had a big order for some black and silver garland for a Christmas tree.

before i sent it out i decided to play around with it a bit and get some fun pics.

i planned on just having deandra (the baby) model, but then of course enola and eliza wanted a turn!

this would be fun for a birthday background i think! behind the highchair of a one year old digging into their cake.

oh the possibilities!

button jewelry.

a loooooong time ago when i was in high school i got an idea for button jewelry. one of my teacher's girlfriends had a bracelet that i adored. i figured i could make my own, so i did!

sorted through my grandma's buttons and came up with two necklaces that i still wear today. (one all black, and one multicolored.)

i considered selling them then, going by the name shelley belly button. ha!

seems like there is more interest in them now!

so i have a few made up and listed in my shop.

i also got an order for a child's set.

i just so happened to have two of my favorite toddlers on hand to model them for me. they both wanted to keep them, so i might have to make some more for Christmas!

monsters.

got a little creative with an order last night.

one of my customers wanted a halloween banner with monsters so i decided to jazz it up a little.

i love how it turned out. so much i almost don't want to mail it out! good thing she prepaid or i might have kept it. guess i'll have to make one for myself too!

these monsters have been popular for birthday party banners too. it's a fun theme!

what my life has been reduced to.

today on pinterest i searched for potty training charts.

yes. potty training charts.

who am i?

surprisingly i didn't find one cute enough. so i decided to make one for eliza.

i had limited supplies since it was on a whim and my paper is at the house, but i think it turned out cute. lots of room for stickers. she should have gotten some today, but i forgot to pick them up!


i have ideas for others if people are interested. or am i the only freak excited about this? got to make it fun, or you'll never survive! :)

happy day!

cake bunting.

for eliza's second birthday i knew i had to make a bunting banner for her cake.

they are the cutest little things.

i used the same paper from the invitations. i thought about adding white and spelling out her name, but then decided just to keep it simple.

you should have seen the lady helping me at the bakery when i ordered a plain white cake.

"and do you want trim?"

"no. just plain."

"just plain?"

"yes!"

of course these can be done in a variety of colors. i can also make a double row if you wanted to "happy birthday" or some other phrase stacked.

paper garland. what is it good for?

when i had a booth at my first craft show i had a few people ask what they could use garland for besides decorating a Christmas tree. i did have one customer buy enough to decorate their tree. it looked great, but there are other options too.

the first time i made it was for eliza's birthday and i draped it around our apartment. in doorways and around the windows. i also hung some up in the bathrooms during the Christmas season.

i had a customer order a bunch of it for her daughter's candy land themed birthday. in addition to decorating the apartment we hung some vertically and made a fun curtain around the food table. i love how it turned out!

it would also make a good backdrop for pictures. i'm thinking behind a child during their first birthday cake smashing.

postcards.

since i had to put orders on hold i had to find ways to get my craft fix.

enter eliza's 2nd birthday.

since we were in korea for her 1st i wanted to make sure her 2nd was just perfect!

even though her birthday is in september i wanted to have a kite theme before she starts picking themes of her own.

i started with sewing some postcard invites. they were a simple design and i got all 20 done without too much of a hassle.

check them out...

simply sweet for our little june bug!

hello!

i guess it is about time i got a blog for my little shop.

i'm hoping to have a giveaway here and there and post items as i make them.

nothing too fancy, just a place to feature some work.

it's been way too long since i have been able to take orders. we moved home from korea, had and lost our sweet delia and life is just getting settled down.

hope to relaunch soon. i've missed it!
