Sweet Dreams Mobile


Sometimes I have ideas for baby mobiles that just need to be realized. For a while now, I've had the idea to do an all sweets or ice cream themed mobile would be so much fun for a nursery. So one afternoon I just had to sit down and make it happen. 

 






The fun part about this mobile is that it could totally be customized to your tastes. All ice creams, all cupcakes, etc.  What sweet treats would you put in a mobile? A slice of pie? Cake? The possibilities are endless and so much fun!! 

To contact me about making a custom mobile for your child's nursery, please send me a convo over at my Etsy shop Lavender Paper Hearts!!

Wedding Pet Bow ties

I recently shipped out a Black Satin Bow Tie for a special pup to wear at his owner's wedding!  I can't wait to see this handsome pup in action later in the summer.

                     

I always appreciate it when customers leave feedback. It's a small but really helpful gesture on Etsy that helps handmade artists such as myself.

Dr. Seuss Themed Mobile

I just finished up this Dr. Seuss themed mobile for someone to give as a gift at a baby shower. The baby's room is going to be Dr. Seuss themed so I came up with this mobile that incorporates different elements from many books, since we weren't sure what the couple's favorite might be. Similarly, I usually design mobiles for specific nursery rooms, but because we weren't sure of the final room would look like I streamlined the design so it incorporated primary colors and was a bit more simple. The finished result is a polished mobile that incorporates great colors and would work in many different settings.









Using a new fun app I found for my phone called the Party Party app, I made this little video while working on the mobile ring!

Bow Tie Onesies

I've been working on some custom kids clothes that use the bow ties I make in my shop, because I'm determined to fill the world with even more bow tie cuteness.  Here are a few pieces I've made recently.

These were made for a set of twins that were born very recently. Their mama loves purple so I was sure to incorporate purple into the designs.  (She also loves stars, so the dark fabric has both!) The center bands for each bow tie has the fabric from the other, so the brothers will still be matching just a bit in their outfits.

                   

The next outfit is a shirt for a growing boy about to turn 1 in July. He's outgrowing (everything) onesies pretty quickly, so this design called for a t-shirt. He's going to look so absolutely cute in it!!

Black with White Polka Dots Pet Bow Tie

A few weeks back I shipped out two large Black with White Polka Dots Pet Bow Ties for some fancy pets who were looking to dress up for a party their owner's were throwing. I love bow ties on dogs of all sizes, but there's always something fun about making bigger bow ties. (I've even made a giant bow tie for a mastiff!)

After the party, I got the cutest photo in my inbox. Just look at how handsome Jackson is. And can you see his 2 different colored eyes? What a cutie, and boy does he wear his bow tie well!
