learn to make a Girly Ruffle Bed Skirt


Hey guys Sorry I have slacked on this blog quite a bit- crazy holidays!! It doesn't help that I have had the flu- it was a killer but quick with a lot of help from my magic moon tonic :) and of course my sweet hubby and mom and sis!
Here is a fun ruffle bed skirt tutorial from little cherry blossoms! She has a lot of other fun ones on there too and a giveaway right after this post so check them out- HERE I am working on some vintage sweater and lace legs and lace boot cuffs for little cherry blossoms this week so go stock up for Christmas! They are my favorite accessory to put on indie and so fun on the older girls- they add so much to any little dress or skirt or leggings! For those out of area I don't think I will be able to add more before Christmas to my Etsy store- sorry they seem to get sold before I can add them- if you are in dire need email me and I will see what I can do! :)

here's a look at some grey marl ones for LCB...




Have a great week!

So many ideas in my head for ruffle legs and leg warmers- trying to sew them all is another story! :) I opened my Etsy store back up-lots of fun styles and many more I need to add- here are a few picts.. Really loving the big chunky sweatery ones ( is that a word?) on Bella

I am also making boot socks for kids- with a little twist so the socks don't need to be so long- Gracie is wearing them here- hopefully I will have a stash ready soon ! :)



robins egg knit legs...

Of course the ruffles...

Copper vintage lace legs

Tons more- super cool metallic ones, lots of vintage lace, chunky boucle and sweater ones and velvet for the holidays!

Any order placed and paid for through Aug 1st will get this lovely treat:) You can make the order for another date not in august but you need to place the order and pay in advance to get it-

Weddings with 500 or more cupcakes booked in July, August or Sept will be delighted with a
a FREE
Cupcake Tower!



Cupcake towers may well be the next big thing for wedding cakes! It is so EXqUisiTe- ( we may be a bit biased)-ANyways it consists of a huge ( 4 ft at least) tall white antiqued iron tower full of cupcakes- what could be better!!! the Tower is so unique - can't say I have seen many towers around lately AND lots better than all that left over wedding cake no body wants to eat- why not have lots of cupcakes instead!!! Most people use the Tower as there Wedding cake..
The Cupcake Tower consists of 60- 70 mini cupcakes placed and sat and settled all over the tower and on stands mixed in and 10-12 JUMBOS sprinkled through out. You can choose 2-3 flavors for your mixture
( the picts above were made differently based on the customers request- they do not show the jumbos mixed in FYI)

And- YES we will come set it up for you-
A STUNNING TOWER of Cupcakes!!!!

we are only taking a few this season so let us know asap!

Spring Market and Ruffle legs!


We only do a handful of boutiques through the year and this is one of the best ones! The Scraps of Simplicity Spring Market is April 16th so mark it in your calendar now- I promise~ you do not want to miss this! :) We have some eclectic flavors we are working on- And I have finally succeeded in a somewhat healthy cupcake!! ( cheers heard around the globe). So it is our same yummy batter but with less fat AND 3 cups of spinach and 1/2 cup wheat bran! I got the idea from a veggie class I did- we made brownies like this and they were super tasty!!! So we will be premiering some of those at the market too- finally you CAN have your cupcake and eat it too! :)

In the meantime if you have a hankering for some yummy cupcakes before April 16 give us a call!

Now onto other things non cupcake....I have been playing around with my little ruffle legs- they are so fun and add a little bit of spunk to your skirts, dresses etc.. I am trying to make up a bunch for the market ( ages newborn- up to 6- or older if you want that is just what I have made) and starting back up my Etsy shop soon! I am also currently consumed with screen printing cool shirts because I feel like there is lack there of lately :) I am getting my shirts from Alternative Apparel-they have burnout shirts and those soft worn out vintage t's- LOVE them! :) So hopefully I will have some of those up and running soon too!
here is a preview of some ruffle legs- I just got some awesome new material too I will post some of those soon- they are my FAV!!!
Lacy and boucle ones..


and yes I have more than pink stripes they have just been my favs lately and the only ones I have picts of :) And I am also going to make some that go over the knee-
Sweet Little girls bring out the craft in me! :)
