This was a special request by a customer for her very hip mom. The grandkids think she is pretty awesome!Pillows
Here are a couple more pillows for some new little people. I especially love the Benjamin one. It coordinates with a Pottery Barn bedding and has a subtle sports theme. The Kennedy is also one of my favorite color palettes -- feminine but with a punch of pink. I've had some new customers ask about the custom name pillows, so just as a reminder, they are $25 with $6-8 shipping.More pillows coming up soon, and if I'm extra ambitious, maybe a Valentine's outfit or two.
Have a great week!
Boy Stuff
Apparently, there's a rash of baby boys being born everywhere. It's usually pretty evenly balanced between girl orders and boy orders, but the boys are definitely taking it right now. I wonder why. I'm loving the brown, turquoise and orange, especially with the big polka dots. If you order something for a boy and say, "You choose the fabrics", this is probably what you'll get. It's fresh, fun and a little retro.
Something New
I'm always looking for fresh new ideas to add to my repertoire, and I love this little apron. It's child sized, and the ruffle gives it a little something extra. Paired with this, it makes a great birthday or Valentine's gift for your little chef.Personalized apron - $15
Girly Pillows
When I saw the photos of the rooms these pillows were intended for, I had a serious urge to clear out all of my girls' bedrooms and do makeovers, copying their style. Ryan and Raimey's rooms were absolutely adorable - the perfect mix of feminine, funky and functional without being age-restrictive. The colors were non-traditional and whimsical, with personal touches throughout. In decorating, I tend to stay safe and do the expected, but when I see fun expressions of personal style in other people's homes, I think,"Why can't I do that?". I'm also a copier in everything I do - I don't have an original decorating idea in my head - so when I see something that appeals to me I want to try it. Since our last redo was only a year ago, I'll have to save my ideas for another time, but I know where I want to go with them.
More Pillows
This was another order before Christmas. The customer requested "boy fabrics" so I chose all the stereotypical boy stuff I had. Camo, John Deere tractors and footballs just yell testosterone, right? I love the chocolate brown minky. For some reason I think it's the softest/plushest of all the minky fabric colors. More pillow posts coming up.
