Custom Flower Girl Dresses

Just a quick hello now that we're two weeks into the new year - WOW, time is flying by now that I'm back in the studio. I have started taking orders for my Custom Flower Girl Dresses, so spread the word to any brides out there. It's so wonderful to be able to give your flower girl a special little treasure that she can keep and pass on to her daughter some day - and I work with brides to ensure that the dress is exactly what you want. Why not go custom and handmade?

Get in touch, summer will be here before you know it!

Cool Treasury on Etsy

I just had to include this Etsy treasury that I've been included on because I love some of the other artists, and want you to support them too! Now that the holiday rush is over, custom work can resume, and new lines will be appearing soon, so be sure to check in over the next few weeks.

Happy Holidays!

Thank you to everyone for making this a wonderful Christmas season. I will be out of the studio until after the new year to enjoy my family. Stay tuned for some new designs in the coming weeks. (I'll give you a hint - I'm going to trial run one of them on Christmas Eve, so YES, they are in big people sizes!)

Peace in 2010.

Last Minute Christmas Presents!

So, just in case you are still looking for the MOST AMAZING present for the under five set, check out these lovely play totes from Helicopter Studios - I am IN LOVE with them, and so excited to buy one for Cecily. (I'm saving it for her birthday because it is so special that it deserves the spotlight) I just had to share because I think EVERY little person should have one.

Boppty Bop Shoppe

Hey there. I'm so amazingly busy right now finishing up all those custom holiday orders, that I really shouldn't be snooping around the internet looking for cool stuff, but hey, we all need diversions. As I was slinking around Etsy looking for a few last minute gifts, I discovered a great little blog out of Brooklyn called Boppty Bop Shoppe that has a style and message that I can relate to, and even some great recipes! I thought I'd pass it on. Check it out. Now, I'll go work on one of those Tea Party Tunics!

Cheers.

Yeah for Birdie!

I'm so excited - Etsy has chosen three Birdie pieces to be featured in their Gift Guides section! Three! My Linen Tea Party Tunic is featured in the Best Gifts Under $50 section, my Linen Favorite Dress is featured in the Best Baby Gifts, and one of my recycled cashmere friends is featured in the best Eco Friendly Gifts. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Be sure to check out all of the amazing work in Etsy's Gift Guides - there is something for almost everyone on your list!

BUY HANDMADE for the HOLIDAYS

This holiday season, remember to buy LOCAL and to buy HANDMADE. To help you out, I've added a new feature to the Birdie site: an everchanging list of some of my favorite Etsy sellers. Look over at the side bar to see some AMAZING work and just maybe you'll discover something new. Cheers!
