Summer!

This got to be the busiest summer ever...I did however work on some orders and also my daughter's 2nd birthday outfit to get ready for her photo shoot and also her birthday party too, not to mention my birthday in between but I will let hubby worry about that, ha ha ha! We are having a punk rock theme for my daughter ( I made the skirt and even got a matching tie to go with it) but I need more ideas...So if you have any, let me know! I will be also working on a banner to put on our window the night before her birthday.
On top of everything, I am working on some fall, back to school, Thanksgiving and Halloween item...Oh, did I mention that my daughter is getting 5 teeth at the same time...Yea! she is pretty unhappy:(

So here are some stuff that I already got done


 My daughter has a new Modelling page now...Please go and give some support♥♥♥ http://www.facebook.com/pages/Charlies-Modelling-Page/134700689949639

BUSY, BUSY...AND BUSY

We have had a pretty eventful week/end. We found out that my hubby's grandpa died on Thursday, then on Friday, he left for Washington...I stayed home with the kids who got really sick over the weekend ( both of them)...So I am really happy that this week is almost over.
I did get to finish a few custom orders that I had , here they are
 This one of my favorite :)

 Thinking on making some for Princess G too

 I am not crazy about this but that is what I had to work with :)






Do you think she will like them? They are also available on my ETSY shop if you want any!

I have one more order to finish and I can start sewing again...Hoping to put together a tutorial for the last pleaded skirt I made, so stay turn!

Guess Post by MJ from My Lucky 7 Desigh

I have a special guess for you guys today. her name is Melanie or MJ and have an awesome post for you today...Go get to know her and check out her awesome stuff out, you won't regret it :) 
We meet on Circle of Mom and found out that we have two look-alike princesses, she is a very sweet lady and my inspiration to be more creative and supportive of other crafters 
`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` 



Well let me tell you who I am and what Im doing here.    My name is Melanie (a.k.a. MJ) and Im the creative force behind LUCKY 7 DESIGN BLOG.   



Im the mother of 5 and Im happily married to my knight is shining armor! My children are my pride and joy and I have a 2nd blog dedicated to them and how I keep my family stylish on a budget.  I also share product review information and anything fun regarding fashion, art, parenting, motherhood, housewives and children. You can find me over at MAMA J AND HER FASHIONISTAS BLOG.    I'm also the parent to a child diagnosed with Autism so I share sometimes the challenges that it brings.

Currently Im a stay-at-home, work-at-home mom.  Im a former visual merchandiser for retail store like New York & Co, The Children's Place, Gap.  I still have that passion and so now I use it in home styling.   Im always redesigning the rooms in my home, but I also do redesigns for family, friends.  You can check out one of them HERE or HERE

I have a love for history and for vintage....Im the person who holds on to buttons, broken pins, letters with cool stamps, napkins.   I know that somehow I will use it for something.......and I DO!  I also go out with friends or my daughter on what I call Junkin Drive-bys.   On my blog I share all the things that I do with my treasures and how you dont need to have a million dollars to create a home you love and are proud to show.

Here are some of my treasures

I have 2 Etsy shops....


LUCKY 7 DESIGN is where you will find my handmade line of home accessories made from vintage linens and recycled materials.   I also collect and sell lots of vintage items and you will find some treasures in my shop too.   I believe there is something for everyone and I keep my pricing fair because I also support handmade and my fellow Etsians ( basically saying I shop a lot on Etsy too).

My Robins Egg Blue collection

Handmade Pillow Pins

Antique saw

Handmade jute stenciled napkin rings

 
Handmade Book Page Wreath

Vintage Tin Molds from Sweden

Handmade fabric napkin ring set

Redesigned vintage chalkboard

Handmade wood shutter star/vintage pie tins

 MAMA J JEWELS is where you will find my handmade jewelry.   I have what I called jewelry boxes that hold different style collections.  Recently Ive gone back to my roots and created a line of jewelry created from junk.   Junkin Jersey Mama is the collection and Ive gotten a great response....take a look.

Garden Goddess Pendant/Ring Set

Te Amo necklace set

Golden Butterfly cuff

The Teary Traveler necklace

The Seamstress necklace

My dream is to one day own my own shop in a downtown area Main Street (my town actually has one...lol) where I can sell my creations.  Until then I will continue to work hard and create until my dream comes true!


I want to give a big hug to Suze for inviting me over today to meet with you all.   She is a talented mama and a sweetheart of a friend! 

-MJ
