Summer, summer, summertime... summertime

Did you just sing the Will Smith song?  I totally did...  And have been since I started these buckets last night!  "Here it is, the groove, slightly transformed. Just a bit of a break from the norm..."  Ok, I'll stop :)

Snap back to reality (oh man, I'm feeling musical today!) - whipped up these adorable beach buckets last night.  Two different sizes, tons of cute graphics to put on them.  Can add a name if you want it personalized.




Two sizes - the large bucket is $10, the small is $6

Pretty Purple Princess

There once was a pretty princess who loved purple.  The pretty princess had a splendid aunt who loved her so much!  Her aunt wanted her to be the whirly-ist, twirly-ist princess ever.... you know what that means... TUTU time!  This lucky princess will be getting a purple & lavendar tutu PLUS a bow/headband combo for her birthday.  Sometime I wish I was a princess... or just had an excuse to wear a fun tutu :)

Address Sign



Love this painted sign with initial & house number!


I have to say, I was in shock when I heard that someone (city, I assume) painted the wrong house number on the curb of Mrs. D's house!  HOWEVER, I was super excited that I got to make a sign for her to hang on her porch to let people know the correct number!

Use a Coaster!

Don't you hate when my husband people lay their drink down & forget it, leaving a nasty ring on your table?  Me too!  Coasters solve that problem - unless you're like me & can't have any nice ones lying around because your 1 year old will throw them on the floor breaking them into a million pieces & can't have any flimsy/floppy ones because your 1 year old will chew on them...  If that's the case, coasters also make a great gift :)
These particular coasters were a gift for an awesome teacher! 
They'd be SO cute with an inital on them too. 
These can be made to go with any decor... what a great present!

Custom letters


Loving the way this turned out.  I was given a picture of some (super cute)
baby bedding & was asked to make some letters to hang on the wall.
I think the came out so amazing & I'm hoping the mommy-to-be loves
them as much I I do!  What a great gift!
