Gettin' Crafty With Shoes

I made these shoes for my cousins wedding a couple months ago. Her wedding was very rustic, Anthropologie-ish. These went perfectly with her theme.

They were a big hit! I found these flannel mary janes at Target and thought that they would look so cute if they were spiffed up a little. So I added a couple felt flowers and embroidered their initials on the side. A pretty simple way to customize wedding shoes!

You can find them in my Etsy shop.

Drawings

So, I've always loved to draw, but I'm not too serious about it. In fact, it's probably been about a year since I have drawn anything.
As you can see my favorite thing to sketch is dresses! I usually copy outfits from magazines- from photo shoots or ads. As you can see, one of them is from a Katherine McPhee photo shoot and another is from a J. Crew catalogue.
The other day I was looking through all of my sketches and here are some of them:

I'm going to be adding them to my Etsy shop in the next day or two. Enjoy and thank you for looking!

Felt Needle Book

I keep stealing my mom's needle book, and she keeps asking for it back! So I decided to fix the problem and make my own. I was inspired by a tag from one of my cardigans, it's Element. This is what I came up with:

Check out my Etsy shop soon. I'm going to add it!

Etsy!!

I'm updating my Etsy shop! Check it out- The Orange Dahlia.
Here are a couple samples of what I just posted:

And check out my clips! I make them with 100% eco friendly felt. Perfect for the little girl in your life. My model, Simone, is 5 and loves them because the felt makes them soft so they don't hurt her while she is playing at school. I have many other designs as well. If you don't see exactly what you want, contact me and we will see what we can do.

Enjoy!
