Princess Frame

2011-06-20T23:31:00.000-07:00

How sweet is this Daniella by CoCaLo?!? I wanted to make a picture frame

that was as soft and elegant as the bedding but still had a little glam.

I am so proud of this frame!

I roughed it up just a tad...and added just the right amount of glam to the crown.

It turned out even better than I envisioned!

12"x12" frame with a 4"x4" photo opening

$35

Green Elephants

2011-06-19T22:47:00.000-07:00

It was easy for me to come up with something simple and ADORABLE to coordinate.

With A Flourish Swag

2011-06-17T13:40:00.000-07:00

This is one of my all time favorite orders. I was so thrilled with how this turned out that I wanted to redecorate a room in my house just so I could display it!

The client, mom, is a photographer and took some beautiful shots of her daughters room so that I could create a coordinating Ragamuffin Garland.

How gorgeous is this little girl's room?!!! The bedding is from Land of Nod and is "With A Flourish".

I wish I had the photography skills of the client because these pictures just don't do this garland justice!

I had never incorporated an embroidered sheer in a garland and I LOVE IT!

Ragamuffin Garland cost:

$50 for 4 feet or less w/fabric and tulle

additional $25 for 3 coordinating ribbons

can add "bling" and/or "charms" for additional fee

additional length is $30 a foot

shipping is $6
