Wee Bit Trendy's Pee Pee Tee Pee

Our latest creation is the Pee Pee Tee Pee.  It's a small tent that protects you frm sprinkles during diaper changes.  If your baby boy happens to go while your changing him, the tee pee catches it, and it stays in one place.  Once soiled, throw it in the wash and use it over and over again.



We used a teddy bear to get our point across :-)

The Victoria- my newest little creations


I recently rebuilt my entire sewing studio (I'll upload some photos soon).  My old room was so unproductive and not easy to get around.  Soooo...now that I have my new special place I have been WAY more productive and excited about getting to work. These little clutches have been my latest focus.  They all have two pockets/card slots inside and most are either detailed with vintage lace or have been made with vintage fabrics.  You can see more in my shop.

Black Feather Angel Wings - Metatron

No, not Megatron, Metatron. You know, the angel, voice of God, etc?
I am working on medium/large feathery versions of my baby angels, and here is the first!
These wings are handcrafted from turkey and goose feathers and are light as a, well, um, feather...

After three looooong weeks with no computer, my new laptop finally arrived yesterday! So now i can finally share some new items with you, starting with this adorable little blush pink and celdon green tulle tutu. And as you can see, my charming kitty Ringo decided to pose in the picture as well. :)

Zadkiel Large Feather Angel Wings

Oh, man. I am way behind on my postings this month, and it has nothing to do with not having new material. I have been insanely busy filling wonderful wing orders for Halloween.
This is a new pair of my large angel wings, which I have decided to call Zadkiel, after the angel of freedom, benevolence and mercy.
I made some design changes from my original large white angel wings, so now the frame is lighter and slimmer, and the pinion feathers are made from stiffened silk. So now it is light as a, well, feather. :)

My bandmates and I collaborated on this robot costume. See the tutorial we wrote, published in this month's Grid Magazine, p. 15 (and check out the publisher's note too, on p.3!).

Vintage Button Bracelets

1st post in a while from me. Between going to Moore College and working, both full-time, it has been hard to find time to update anything online! But, I still have time to work on my new jewelry collection.

Embroidery + Etymology


Breakfast [late Middle English]: break + fast

Break [Old English]: The Old English form of break was brecan, which has a Germanic source and is related to Dutch breken and German brechen. It has an Indo-European root shared by Latin frangere 'to break', which gave English words such as fracture.

Fast [Old English]: Old English faestan 'abstain from or go without food' has a Germanic origin; it is related to Dutch vasten and German fasten, as well as to Old Norse fasta, the source of the noun.

This is a custom tiara and necklace set that I created for a bride to wear for her masquerade wedding on Halloween. It was handcrafted from non-tarnish artistic wire and embellished with pearls and swarovski crystals.

Like a Moth to a Flame

This sterling silver chainmaille bracelet was constructed using the butterfly weave, but the shape of the "wings" looks more like a moth to me. The clasp didn't photograph well but it's gorgeous - bright sterling inlaid with a fiery labradorite cabochon.

I made the bracelet for my husband - I gave it to him yesterday as one of his gifts to celebrate our ninth wedding anniversary.

I have a brand new line of handmade chainmaille jewelry coming out for Spring 2010; you can see a preview by checking out my blog.

Custom Luna Moth Wings

Just finished this delightful pair of wings for a wonderful lady in Canada to wear to Faeriecon this year. Luna moths actually have reddish-purple veins, but this one was customized to be navy blue to match her dress.

Handmade Promotional Tags: Marketing

This week I finally started cleaning out my craft closet...a task I've been putting off for a while. The great thing about cleaning is finding things that were lost or um...filed away in their proper places. I found an entire box of flying fox stickers...and since I've been thinking a lot about changing my brand name I figure I'd best get to using these up...I think it may take some time though, there are, like, a few hundred. So here are a few promotional tags I made by affixing the stickers to (recycled) cardboard, then distressing the edges with scrapbooking scissors.
