PINK ruffled flower skirt!

A few weeks ago I had went down to the LA fabric district to find the perfect fabric for the perfect skirt for a little girl. I had found what I was looking for and after about 14+ hours of sewing, hand stitching, ruffling, and measuring-I have FINALLY finished the adorable PINK ruffled skirt!! :)
Here it is in all it's girliness!!
I attached a pink bow to the top of the skirt with a pin so that it could be moved and added where desired :)
Notice the silver shimmer within the pink :) My favorite!
I spent a lot of time on this skirt. I thought, "if I was still a little girl, how would I want my skirt to look like?" After several hours, I completed it and couldn't be happier with it! :)
Needless to say though, I am now taking a break from the sewing machine for a while and I'm going to just work on hairpieces for my new line coming out soon! :)
Also, in October, I will be a part of the 14th Annual Arts & Crafts Fair in Helendale, California which is expecting over 1,000 people to show. This also means I need to start creating lots more pieces...busy-busy but I love it all! :D Have a beautiful day!!

New projects & the opening of my new etsy shop!

It's FINALLY over!!! The Spring 2011 semester is done with! :)
In celebration, I opened up my etsy shop...I still don't have a lot of listings up just yet {still working on it} & I will be starting 2 new projects by the next couple of weeks!
Yesterday, I went to Starbucks to study for a bit before my last final of the day & a woman that was behind me in line asked if I had made the flower I was wearing in my hair. Once, I told her that I did, she told me that she loved it and politely aked if I would make her hairpiece for her wedding in Feb. 2012! I was so excited and shocked at the same time! We exchanged numbers and I will be working on it shortly.
It will be a halo of small ivory flowers with pinks and yellows mixed throughout. :) I can't wait because my vision of it is quite amazing I must say! Pictures of progress will be coming soon!
Another project will be for a little girl named Destiny :) I will be making her a little ruffled skirt she can feel really girly wearing!! {It's gonna be so CUTE!} Next week sometime I am planning to go to the LA fabric district and as soon as I get back with lots of different fabrics, I will be starting her skirt for her. Pictures of progress will be coming soon as well!
P.S. visit my etsy shop {although still under construction}
{NOTE: if you are ordering from the high desert, shipping is free}
