Purple.....

I love Purple... Which is funny I found quite a few things but these are my favorite. My vintage mannequin that I spray painted & my sewing scissors ... always purple so I know which ones cut fabric! :)

Color week.... Blue

I am participating in color week ....check it out here curiousbird . We are home safe and sound from our long trip to Eau Claire. The funeral and everything was such a great tribute to Jakes' Grandpa. I took some family pics and will share those next week. I am waiting for my sewing machines to get repaired and back to sewing bus. it will be. Until then join me this week for color week.
Today is blue! :)

♥ Valentine hair clips! ♥

Valentine hair clips are showing up in the shop. I have more I will be posting so keep checkin' back. My sewing machine broke yesterday as I was finishing up a few things.... so needless to say there will not be any new skirts or totes until next week. Sorry! I do have quite a few things I am mailing off today to Madison, new purses & accessories for Anthology. :)

On a sad note Jake's Grandpa passed away yesterday. We are really sad & will miss him terribly. He was a very neat and caring man, especially to our kids.. They love Grandpa Ray! We will be heading out of town at the end of the week for his funeral. I will probalbly be a bit quiet here until next week.

I'll be in touch!

A clean slate....

Look at what I have been working on... CLEANING my sewing room of course! I also received a nice email this morning from a kind etsy seller telling me one of my lovely new purses was in her treasury... so cute! Check it out here!

Here are some pics of my newly organized sewing room. Look at that beautiful stack of fabric I get to work on! Off to sew I have sooo much to do! Happy Monday! :)

Happy New Year!

I am sooo excited for this new year! I feel like I am off to a fresh start. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. We did and I am enjoying every bit of just hanging out with my kids and my husband before they are all back to school & work on Monday! We have been quite busy.. sledding, iceskating & hanging with family in Eau Claire!

I really have one new years goal this year and that is to slow down and enjoy what I have, meaning my family, business all of it.. just life in general! oh and to stay organized (meaning my sewing room)!LoL! 2008 was such a crazy year for me.

I am ready for 2009!I have totally reorganized my sewing room & I just ordered some amazing new fabrics so that I can get some of the ideas out of my head.hehe! I also will be changing my shipping in my etsy shop to international shipping as well.

I hope you all are getting off to a good start in 2009.. I will have lots of new things to post soon!


Here are some cute pics of the kids with their favorite christmas gifts! :)

Merry Christmas & Happy New year!

Merry christmas & a Happy New year from my family to yours!

(I am taking a small break to get ready for the holidays! My husband is on vacation time and the kids are on winter break. Thank you all for your support & making 2008 a great year for daintydaisies! I have so many things in the works for the New year.. I will keep you posted! )

p.s. Pre-lit trees are sooo pretty but when 1 light burns out uuuuggh! The pics below is from last night.. the kids had their holiday concert! It was so fun & they did a great job! Off to find the burnt out light! hehe!

Handmade gifts for the Holidays & Birthday.....

Here are some gifts the kids and I have been working on... we made homemade Banana breads for all of our grandparents (the kids great grandparents) and I made this cute set for my nephew who just turned *3* I think it came out sooo cute! Fun and easy to make as well.. no pattern just kind of went along as I was making it. The crayon roll holds 8 large washable crayons and some scrap papers! Fun stuff! I hope he likes it! I have a few more things to make so off I go......

Have a great day!
