dainty daisies is mad for plaid....





I have sooo many new things I am working on! I can't wait to show you! I have a little one home sick today! :( He just wasn't feeling himself.. so I thought it best to keep him home! There is so much stuff going around! Uuggh!

... shop news... I have been working on a lot of new things.. I made some new plaid button rings and cuff braclets made of the mens shirt sleeves that I cut off to make the shirt skirts & a new version of the fold over clutch! I have a few more new things in the works. I will share later!

I have lots of sewing to do!

Happy Monday! xo!

p.s. I am reworking my Etsy shop & pulling most of the headbands.. stay tuned for a update!

A beautiful custom hair clip & a very special Happy Birthday.....


I had to show off this sweet hair clip I put together. Wed. afternoon a young college girl came in looking for a specific hair piece for a homecoming. She was in love with the headbands but wanted a clip with feathers.. well a little collaboration and voila a custom hair clip! I think I will make a few more for the shop! I hope she sends me pics. of her wearing it! It looked adorable in her hair!!!


and a very special HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

I have been blessed ever since.. she is the most amazing daughter, beautiful, smart, talented, polite and funny! I am one lucky Mama!!! Happy 10th Birthday Jada Rayne!!!
