my friend Christie




One of my very good friends got married on January 15. I was unable to attend her Atlanta wedding due to about 5 million things going wrong the day before, but thankfully the hair piece I made for her made it to her in time. She looks so stunning and beautiful. I am so grateful she found such a wonderful, Godly man to spend her life with! I wish them so much happiness and blessings! Photos by J. O'Brien Photo.

hard at work!

This is an image from a Valentine's shoot we did recently. We as in Me, Jodi Miller Photography, Josh Gooden Cinematography, Sweet Lavender Bake Shoppe, and Bill Main! That's a whole lot of vendors! We had a fantastically cold time...it was 23 degrees and windy! An enormous amount of credit goes to our wonderfully patient models and the stars of our show Elizabeth "Bee" Bowman and Patrick Lincoln. I can't wait to share more. It will be published on Valentine's Day on Green Wedding Shoes. This was the first time I got to work with my good friend Christina...I can't wait to work on more projects with her and her talented husband Bill. And it was also the first time I got to work with Josh Gooden! We have another project coming up that I cannot wait to share...keep your eyes peeled, it'll be good!

west elm trays




I love these affordable and very cute trays from West Elm. I really love trays these days, they help me keep keys, earrings, change, etc. from getting lost, or eaten by my child! I need one for my bedside table...

black and pink

This picture came from Martha Stewart...I've been working on my little projects for etsy and I seem to be making a lot that is black and pink. I love the contrast of a color that can be sort of harsh with a color that is perceived as sweet and precious. Its a stunning combination and I don't think it gets old. I will list some things on etsy very very soon! I've been sort of dealing with a bunch of crazy things at once.

DIY sneak peek


Today I made a necklace out of a doily, lace, and scraps of fabric. I'm hoping it will be featured as a DIY on a wedding blog soon. Oh and my boxes came for my Etsy items, so I can put them up soon! I couldn't list them until I had something cute to ship them in:-).

hilary cosgrove




I came across a gal named Hilary Cosgrove online today and was really intrigued by the things she makes. She turns old suits and felt into sweet little owls and letters. You should check out her etsy shop! Very cute:-).

Sweet Lavender Bake Shoppe!!!

I'm going to take a moment to brag about my friend! My friend Christina started a little bake shop called Sweet Lavender Bake Shoppe from her home not super long ago. She makes the most amazing treats! She and I are a lot alike. I think this past year we both decided(separately) it was time to just take the plunge and start our own little businesses. Its not easy starting out, for either of us. But this gal is quite talented and like me will do anything custom! Check out those Hello Kitty decorations she made below! Send her an email and order something yummy, you won't be disappointed!

vanilla bean marshmallows....need I say more?

So cute, right?

Sweet potato pie!!!

she's wraps things all cute!

Umm....that pie is sugar free! Yummy!
