Closet Petite


I love a vintage inspired design, here's a gorgeous website I designed recently for Closet Petite.
Melissa wanted a vintage style closet incorporated so I thought it would be nice to do something different and have the store sit inside the closet.

Gorgeous Fabric Designs



Yes.....I can do fabric design too :-)

A while ago now I had the pleasure of designing some very cute prints for a new range of Bambooty Nappies, I was SO excited this week to discover the designs have come to life...there's; tutu cute, hooty booty and zoom zoom (I love the names they came up with for the prints), Ive ordered some for Max and can't wait to see them in real life !

Bambooty Nappies are fashionable, affordable, eco-friendly all in one nappies. Easy to use - no folding, no pins, no covers. Easy to wash - no soaking, no bleach, no water hazards. Simply wash, dry and wear.

I actually havent used cloth nappies before, but it seems poor Max has some eczema so Im thinking the Bambooty Easy Dry nappies will be good for his skin.... apparently bamboo/organic cotton fleece next to the skin is good for eczema.

Oh my...






Oh my gosh, just look at this - so cute !!

I had designed a free rainbow colour-in page last month as Ive been loving all the rainbow eye candy that has been flying around blog-land lately. I was thrilled this afternoon to get an email from Hip Hooray informing me that they had used the colour-in at Mia's rainbow party !

Just look at that cake...WOW. Im loving the upside down umbrella's hanging from the ceiling, and the gumboots holding the streamers, the use of gorgeous ribbon everywhere...oohhhh...head on over to Hip Hooray to check out some more pics.

A Gorgeous Naming Day






A couple of weeks ago on a beautiful sunny sunday, we celebrated my baby boy's naming, at home with a celebrant, family and friends. I was in my element designing and creating every little detail for the special day and am very excited to finally share it with you.

I had decided on a baby elephant theme for the naming day before Max was born as this was the theme for his nursery. By adding teeny tiny polkadots and my cute Style Me Gorgeous birdies it was perfect 'cute' theme for my gorgeous baby boy. The soft colour palette was inspired by some gorgeous Martha Stewart paper lanterns that I found at Spotlight.

I designed the cake toppers, cookie toppers, labels, tags, signs and banners to match the invites. In my next blog post I will share the details of the decorations.
