We Are Back!

Wow it has been a crazy couple of months behind us!  For those of you who don't know I am a Full time Realtor and Proud Mommy of 2 1/2!  (The 1/2 being my nephew that lives with us)  Needless to say I already carry a fully packed schedule AT ALL TIMES!!! 

We kicked off our Summer this year with our son's High School Graduation and enlistment into the U.S.Army!  I cannot believe how quickly his school years have come and gone!  Naturally, we threw a huge party to celebrate all of his hard work.  What a blast!  Family from all over Florida came to visit and my dad made a special trip from Germany just for the occasion!  It was very special to have both of my parents in attendance as well as so many of our extended family members and great friends!  So Many BEAUTIFUL memories were made!  LOVE IT!!!

My Aunt Edith of www.creationsbyedith.com , made us the most beautiful cake!  The statue is a keepsake that looks like it was made of fondant but is actually made of cold porcelain so that we can keep it forever.  The unveiling of the cake had to be one of the most special moments for me because she captured my son's spirit in a way that had us all in tears!  She is AMAZING!  If you haven't heard of cold porcelain you absolutely MUST stop by her website and facebook page.  Very creative stuff happening over there!

As the summer winds down I am finding myself with the tiniest little bit of free time to catch up on some quality time with my babies, my sewing machine, and you. I am looking forward to sharing all of our latest designs and stories with you all.  I hope your summer has been as exciting and full of fun as ours has!  

Love,

Mom

 

Hey you guys!  We're finally back!

It's been a busy summer!  It started when my girl scout troop and all the moms went to Epcot Cent.  It was my first time there!  The first place I went was Paris.  It's so beautiful I can't believe it!  I'm IN LOVE with Paris and me and my friend Abbey are going to live there for 1 year after we graduate!

My cousin Jazzy from Pensacola came over for a sleep over.  My mom took us shopping and Jazzy and I decided to act like models.  Jazzy also got to come with with us to my Girl Scout Bridging Ceremony where I bridged from Brownie to Juniors.  We got to go swimming and even got to learn how to drive a golf cart!

We have spent our summer at the beach, water parks, and having LOTS of sleep overs with my friends.  I'm having a great summer!  I hope you are too!

Love,
Your Tween Queen <3

Custom Owl Always Love You Purse

Hello Everyone!  I am so excited to show off this custom Owl Always Love You Purse!  It's a bit bigger than the original so it has Tons of room for everything you need!  This one is also sporting an adjustable strap for convenience.  The fabric on the wings are probably my favorite part of this whole purse.  The bright threads used for the embroidered design give this bag an awesome burst of color.  I hope this little owl will be very happy in his new home!

Valentine's Day 2012

I hope everyone had a fabulous Valentine's Day!  In our house it turned into quite an event!  Every year I hand out little Valentine boxes of chocolate to my lovies and start their day off with a smile as they head out to school to share the love.  This year, they all decided to surprise me back with cards and chocolates from each one of them.  My Special Valentine of 13 years showered me in Chocolates, Roses (to be shared with our daughter, because no matter how old you are, a girl will always enjoy receiving flowers!) and a silly card that made us all laugh!  We topped off the evening with a quiet dinner out at the yummiest Japanese Restaurant in town!  Needless to say I was feeling the love!

Going out to dinner has become a rare occasion for us these days as our crazy-busy schedules just don't allow much time or energy to get dolled up and head out on the town.  Not only did this special evening allow us to enjoy a much needed date night, it also gave me the opportunity to use my newest handmade clutch that I'd been dying to take for a spin!


         

 

I absolutely love this clutch!  The neutral color allows it to go anywhere, the floral design on the inside is JUST girlie enough for me, and the latch closing gives it the finishing touch it needs to make the clutch feel store bought.  I made this particular one just for me, but can duplicate or personalize it easily.  

Wishing you all a Beautiful Day!

Owls and Superheroes!

This past week we wished a very dear family farewell (but really more of a "catch ya later") as they moved away and onto their newest adventure.  We decided to make sure Miss E knew how much we loved her and wanted to send her off with a piece of us to take with her to cherish as much as we cherish her.  And so was born this awesome one-of-a-kind "Owl always love you" purse.  She put it over her shoulder immediately and wore it the rest of the night at her going away/birthday party.  I think she liked it.
A lot of love and TONS of Fun went into making this Purse!  It became a family affair as everyone had input on colors, design, layout and overall creation.

OWL Always Love You Purse - $30

                         

In the sprit of "New Adventures" we decided to also create a Drawstring bag for Ms. E's Little Brother A.  A bag truly fit for any Superhero!  Created in a way where he can carry his things with him while fighting crime at the same time!  What 5 year old Superhero can resist that!

Batman Cape Drawstring Bag $20
(Just name your superhero!)

Now set off to your own adventures of crime fighting and remember Owl always love you!!!!

Any of these purses or bags can be custom created for you or your little ones.  Fabrics may vary.
