Exquisite Little Lady

Last September my sister in law came to visit and brought me some goodies for Bryn.  They were the cutest hair clips for headbands and I am a sucker for a cute headband!  She explained to me that the styles in Utah are different than just the every day "ribbon bow".  I felt like all I could ever find for Bryn was ribbon bows.  And not that I have anything against them, I think they are darling but I really loved these flowers she brought.  They were beautiful and just different from the norm. I thought man, I wish I lived in Utah to have nonstop access to these cute goodies!  Then I thought well maybe not, I'd make us bankrupt.  She told me I could make them myself.  Now, I've never been the "crafty" type.  At all.  I truly didn't know if it was even remotely possible for me to duplicate something like that.  After she left, I was talking to Ramon and I said you know what, I'm just going to try.  So I bought some fabric and sat down one night, completely blind and with no clue as to what I was doing, and made one.  I thought it was cute although looking back now it was pretty pitiful.  Haha  ....But I was proud of myself.  These nightly sessions of making these flowers became an obsession and I was getting better at it.  So I decided to launch my own little business.  I figured they were hard to come by in GA and maybe people would like them.  I put up a display at Chase's dance studio with some, I created a Facebook page where I would post pictures of my creations, and last December I even participated in a Holiday Bazaar where I had my first table display.  If anyone knows me they know I LOVE fashion and I love getting inspiration and color pallete ideas from things I see on television or in magazines.  I love putting colors and accessories together in my outfits and it was translating into my work.  I never knew this was something I would really take to and enjoy.  And now, almost a year later, I have an Etsy shop and I take regular custom orders.  I absolutely LOVE dreaming up new ideas for headbands and clips.  And Bryn makes them beautiful.  She is my inspiration for this and I couldn't be more proud.  I have big plans for this little business of mine and I can't wait to see what the future holds!  Here are some pics of some of my favorite creations and links to my FB page and shop on Etsy.
