PooLou Designs Style Pink

Love pink?  Here are a few accessory ideas from PooLou Designs to complete your favorite look!

You will need a clutch for that night out with the girls!  This one is oval in shape and fits everything you need.  The button closure is stylish and adds pop.  Everyone will ask you where you got it!

How about a big, vintage looking ring?  The ring is adjustable, so it will fit anyone.  The white base is an old button.  I added wire wrapped pearls in white and pink.  Old meets new!

A must have bracelet!  Large rectangle beads paired with pink pearls and metal beads.  Rustic and elegant.

I call these cotton candy earrings!  I love the soft, light pink with the darker pink mixed in.

All of these items you can find in my Artfire Studio at http://pooloudesigns.artfire.com/

If you see something you like, but it is not in my studio, ask me about it.  I can usually recreate the item.  I hope you have enjoyed this PooLou Designs Style!

Girl Burp Cloths

Ok, I know this is not my usual thing...I had a double baby shower to go to last night.  Both women are having girls!  I got the idea from a friend to make burp cloths for them.  It had never crossed my mind to make them something.  I was going to go to the store and get something everyone else had.  I can't believe I was going to do that!  I am creative.  I can make gifts instead of buying.  Handmade is so much better!  More personal.  Here is what I made for them.

I was going to give the burp cloths to them matching, but variety is good!  They have 2 different patterns.

The pattern fabric is cotton and the pink fabric is flannel.  Absorbent and it stays put!

Showing off the back with my labels :)

The whole front and back...

Up close...My sewing is pretty good, isn't it?

Folded and ready to go into the baby gift bag.

Unfortunately, one of the ladies was sick.  She will get her gift next month.  The other lady loved her burp cloths!  She said they were too pretty to use...awwwwww :)  Everyone said they were her "going out" burp cloths.  I guess they were a hit!  Now I want to make some boy ones ;)

Coming Soon!

Don't you hate it when you go to the grocery store and you come home with tons of produce bags?  I sure do!  It is a waste, not to mention bad for the earth.  I have been frustrated about this for awhile, and finally decided to do something about it!  I am going to be making reusable mesh produce bags.  They will be great to have on hand whenever you make a trip to the grocery store.  They will also make awesome gifts!  I know what I am doing for Christmas this year ;)  Here is the first one I made.  I love the color, don't you?

This is the standard size you get at the grocery store.  I am thinking about making them in different sizes and offering them in a set.  I will also do different colors.  What do you think?
