Another New Wedding Veil Design

Synthetic Pearls Shown Up Close

Here is a non tiara full length wedding veil design of mine with white synthetic pearls flowing down the back as the focus. Simple Elegance! It's modeled with the veil pulled over the face, and with the veiled pulled back away from the face.

Modern Fashion Ladies Wedding Veil

Here is my fashionable ladies veil that I designed a few weeks back, but didn't have time to do the photo shoot or model it in proper wedding attire. This design was complex, but came out just as drawn out. The tricky part was getting it to flip back right when the veil is unveiled after a wedding ceremony. Here is this design of mine modeled both ways, with the veil covering the face, and with the veil pulled back off of face. (The entire outfit shown, top and skirt, is my design as well.)

Ladies Chocolate Shawl

Here is one of my ladies formal shawl designs. It's trimmed with black and gold fringe giving it a unique look. The main fabric is Satin.

New Ladies Swimming Suit Cover Up!

Here's my newest ladies swimming suit cover up! This swimming suit cover up is made of elastic stretchy swimming suit fabric. It's made for any woman of an average size waist. It ties into a halter in the back and has a slit making it easier to wear in the water on the left side with a feminine pink bow to top it off. Perfect for wearing at the beach or the swimming pool. Since it's made out of swimming suit fabric it dries quickly just like a swimming suit.

Update on my Herbs!

Oregano

Basil

Peppermint

Dill

Sage

Here are updated pictures of my window sill herb garden! My "herb designing" is going just great! Everything has surfaced except for my Cilantro. Still waiting on that. Hopefully it will surface soon, otherwise, I guess I'll have to start over with it, but everything else is showing strong! Can't wait to cook with these very herbs when they grow mature in about one months time! Herbs grow really quickly like weeds. I still don't understand why stores charge so much for little herbs when you can grow them fresh right in your own window sill!

My Week This Week!

My apologies for not posting any new fashion designs this week yet! I am so sorry. My week has been super busy, but I am working on the new designs, just haven't finished them yet! My deadline to finish them is this Sunday so that I can move on to new designs.

Other than personal life, house guests, holiday weekend BBQ, taking some young friends shopping in preparation for our annual summer youth program camp, putting together healthy care packages for kids at camp, working on Sunday at the World Class Armstrong Auditorium which by the way was printed in a local newspaper stating that our auditorium rivals European Palaces!.....I have been fulfilling a few Scents of Happiness orders this week which takes a bit of time b/c I make each order fresh when ordered. I have local customers, and then I recently opened a Etsy shop also called ScentsOfHappiness where anyone anywhere can order from me online.So I've been focusing on that all natural bath and body product shop of mine. So far it's going well. I also have just opened a new Etsy shop called CulinaryElegance where people that love trying new recipes can purchase some of my own created tasty and zesty recipes. More recipes will be added as time allows. I'm in the process of creating my second recipe book to publish. It will be a few months though, my first recipe book took newly a year to complete. You have to create the recipes, actually try them yourself, document how much of everything went into the making, take a photo of the finished product. It's hard mental work that's time consuming, but I love sharing with others. Most of my recipes have a spicy kick to them. I was raised in Texas so no bland food in my shop. So, I haven't been idle this week, my fashion designs have just suffered since I've been tending to my other two shops. Too much to do and not enough time! But as I always say, it's a blessing to stay busy!

New Fashion Designs In the Making and New Herbs!

My Basil Showing!

My Oregano Showing BIG TIME!

My First Sprig of Sage Showing!

Beginning to work on a man's chocolate necktie. Necktie's have to be exact and take a long time to make correctly by hand. Hoping to by done by Sunday. Also, working on another lady's bathing suit cover up as well as finishing up 2 wedding veils among having house guests staying in my home this week. Busy week, but I love it busy...thrive on it!

As an update to my herb garden post, here it is......This weekend I had a pleasant surprise. My Oregano, Sage, and Basil had started sprouting only after 3 days in the potting soil! Yeah….it’s so neat to see the fruits of labor. Now, I’m waiting on my Peppermint, Cilantro, and Dill to sprout and start showing! Yeah! I’m so excited I have attached a photo of my herbs to this blog entry....herb designing! :-)
