I've been sewing

I got some time on the weekend and made a dress and 4 skirts - see:

 

And while I'm here, why not show off a few other dresses I've made

 

 

Amongst others. All for sale on Madeit, and of course on my website.

My Darlings...

Introducing my 2 beautiful babies: Nicholas who is 6, and Ivie, who is 4.

 

I especially love this photo. Nicholas was about to play on the MCG, and was a little nervous

 

And the newest member of our family, a toy poodle named Jeb - Jebediah Leopold, that is!

Speaking of ribbons...

I have some of the beautiful ribbons that I use available for sale by the metre or roll here.

Take a look. Lovely, huh?

There are plenty more on the website.

My Handmade Hair Clip Sets

I've been making these little hair clips for quite some time now. They are made with gorgeous grosgrain and satin ribbons, and even have a little foam grip inside to keep them in the finest hair.

I think I love Billie....Or Ivie...Or Audrey best.... I can't quite decide!

 

Which do you like best?

 

So, I've recently discovered a wonderful thing...

Called Pinterest. I love it! See my boards here.

Here are a couple of snippets to tempt you:

Be sure to head on over and have some fun with it! Oh, and don't forget to follow me!

The First Post

Well, it's been a while that my little Lola Shoppe has been up and running on Etsy, Madeit, and Craftumi, but it's just now that I'm launching a blog and an independent website.

Lola Shoppe is basically my spare time. I love to be crafty, but with 2 little ones, it can be hard to find time. Lola Shoppe is an eclectic mix of crafts, including printable cards, dresses, cards, hair clips, jewellery and more.

I hope to showcase some of my creations on this blog, and also share some things I love. I hope you enjoy!
