Lucky Star tee by Modern Frills

Now … for some luck in 2013, you might want to order one of these for the little in your life:)  Perfect for St. Patrick’s Day and every day.  I have a couple other new designs that I will be adding this week, including an especially sweet slice of watermelon!

I have a bunch of side projects I am working on right now, including …

  • a chalkboard version of this sweet saying for my girl … because she really does have us all under her spell!
  • my version of a Smashbook inspired by the uber creative momma behind Jacks & Kate.
  • and a couple sweet birthday gifts for my niece made using some fabric scraps from my ever growing pile.

I promise to share these projects in the coming weeks!

rested and ready for Valentine’s Day … almost

Just when I feel like I am getting caught up with everything around me … up pops Valentine’s Day!  I am not quite ready to decorate as there are a few sprinklings of Christmas still laying around, but I am already thinking about what sorts of crafts and sweets we will be making.  And what is Valentine’s day without a cute tee …

I have already shared these two …

a red and white holiday …

The classic red and white holiday color scheme is my favorite.  Little touches of green here and there with holiday music humming in the background and I am ready!  I love the holidays.

cookies … a fresh take on Halloween

Hey everyone!

It’s Nicole and it’s time to talk about what is on everyone’s minds. Who is officially going to play Mr. Christian Gray? Eek! I meant to ask you about your stance on Halloween and if you dig such a crazy holiday!  Well, since you already caught me off-guard, I guess it is ok to confess that I have mixed feelings about Halloween. I definitely don’t like being scared but I love all the fun and whimsy twists on the holiday. I mean, take my witch cookies for example. Witches are usually green, full of warts, and spreading sunshine throughout the land. Oh, wait. That doesn’t seem right.  Well, since green is not my best color and I am not a fan of warts (ew!) I designed whimsy witch hats and funky witch shoes. Who doesn’t love shoes? I guess even witches can have a shoe collection that mirrors Imelda Marcos. I guess the bottom line is that even if you aren’t full of warts and can’t tell the difference between Louboutin and Doc Martens, you can still appreciate the sass and funky of these witches. I mean, they are cookies. No one turns away a cookie. Not even Mr. Gray.
