Busy as a Bee!

Dear Family and Friends,

I will be as busy as a bee from here until early December. I am less than a month away from my CDA (YEA!) and tied up with math homework. Unfortunately Studio Bebe Boutique will debut sometime this winter instead of Fall do to the heavy work load. I apologize for the inconvenience and sincerely look forward to the winter holidays when I can turn my full attention to launching the shop! Until then please feel free to stop into my etsy shop or check out my ebay auctions!

Kindest Regards, Designing Diva

Wishing you and yours Autumn Blessings!

Fabric Buttons!

A little late, but as promised, my first fabric covered buttons!!!!!!! The top set (I like to call my Mary Englebreit set) was the first set I did! Came out pretty good for an amatuer I say! The second set I'm calling an All American set! I will be making these lovely buttons into hair clippies and magnets so stay tuned! For now....I'm off to the Fall Festival Fair! ~Ciao!

Whew!

Yes I know its been a while! Sorry I haven't written much lately. I have been so busy with homework and also sick to add to the stress of school! I am sooooooooooooooo over school! It eats up most of my time! I can't wait to Graduate in May! I can't wait to get my CDA and Director's Credential! I should be receiving them in Late December! Perhaps I'll have more time to write then. In the mean time I managed to get some pics of a couple of my favorite things!

The first is a picture of one of my favorite teacups! It belonged to my Grandma, she had such great taste in colors and patterns! The second is a blast from the past collection of kids flateware! Bring back any memories?? I hope to post again perhaps later. I just learned how to make fabric buttons! I am sooooooooo excited! Hopefully I'll have some pics to show ya what I've been up to! Thats about all for now! Until next time friends!

Studio Bebe Update!

(Click on Picture)

Hi Ya'll! I am so excited about the new look coming to Studio Bebe That I just had to share it with you! Here's a sneak peak of the new look coming this Fall for Studio Bebe Boutique! Stay Tuned!

Winding Down

Whelp, its back to the books! Tomorrow is the first official day of classes for me. I am only taking three classes this semester so it shouldn't be as grueling as the Spring Term was. It has been a nice laid back summer. I just LOVE summer and these pictures really capture the season! I am excited about the Fall term though because at the end of the semester I will be receiving my CDA (Child Development Associate) and Director's Credential! Finally a piece of paper to wave around to make me feel more important! I can't wait to receive them!

Pizza Night!

Alright maybe not really, but we can certainly pretend! Okay Moms! Heres a fun, unique, and inexpensive game for the kids! (And mess free too!) I created these fun sets out of felt today for my three year olds and we just had a blast playing chef at school! All you need is a pair of scissors and some craft felt. I got mine at Michaels arts and craft store at 20 cents per sheet! So the estimated cost of this game was under $2.00!!!!! Above are some scrumptious samples! Remember be creative! You can always add more toppings to your Pizza game! For storage I recommend the gallon sized zip-lock bags from Walmart! So there ya go Treasure seekers! Your find of the evening.....until next time......Bon Appetit!

What's your favorite Natural Beauty Product?

Good evening all, I have recently decided to opt for "Natural beauty Products" to accommodate me in my summer outdoor ventures and really year round ;) With that being said, here are the finds of the evening: California Baby sunscreen to protect baby and your delicate skin (they have this at Target now! yea!), Crabtree & Evelyn's (a long time favorite by the way) Jojoba Oil, a friend once told me this worked wonders for her son's eczema, (but then every skin type is different of course) and then finally Burts Bees! I just purchased this about a week ago because I was looking for an insect repellent that was Deet free, it smells exactly like furniture polish, (just what you've always wanted to smell like right?!) but NATURALLY does the trick! So there ya have it! The finds of the evening! Its your turn! What works best for you that is natural? Do tell.......until next time treasure seekers :)

Oh the Elegance!

A dear friend asked me to add a strand to this lovely piece now that she has two babies. I got so into it that I eneded up restringing the whole thing! I amazed myself with the way this one came out and I just had to share it :) I don't do double strands to often because they intimidate me, (there I said it!) but after these results I think that perhaps I shall change my mind!

Happy 4th of July!

I'd like to wish you all a safe, fun, and relaxing 4th of July as you Celebrate with family and friends!

Wahoo! Wahoo!

Daffy Duck says it all! Yes! No school for the next month and a half! I don't even know where to start!? I keep thinking...."Do I have a paper due or a test?" But then another thought.....maybe I'll do some stitchin..... ;o)

Here is a sneak peek of what I have been up to between homework breaks ;) Look for my new creations to debut late this summer and early fall! Until next time darlings!

Etsy is The Bomb!

Do you love unique? Do you love handmade and boutique?? Then Etsy is for you! This website is THE BOMB and I am sooooooooooooooo hooked! Etsy is just like ebay but only for handmade designer items. Here are a couple of gorgeous findings that I splurged on today! A cheery cherry tissue pouch, a soothing lavender sachet in the shape of an inviting house, and a whimsical French inspired change purse made out of vibrant euro-colored houses! To find more unique items go to esty.com! Until next time treasure hunters, happy shopping!

Delightful Delectables!

These yummy pastries actually come from two different sellers. The first two cakes come from "The Pink Boutique." The last two chenille cakes come from "Crazy Cakes." You can find more of these lovies by clicking on the links provided. Until next time darlings....Cheerio!

The madness continues.....

I had a lovely, yet brief moment (5 days to be exact) of glorious and relaxing vacation time filled with much non-obligation and nothingness to bask in this past week, now its back to the old academic grind! Yes, summer classes have started. I am happy to say though that this past spring semester's crazy and almost sleepless nights devoted to writing last minute term paper reflections have finally paid off! All A's and one B to be exact!!!!! And I can say I did it working full time and going to school full time too! Never again, unless it is necessary. I have missed writing in Studio*Bijou! I feel as though this semester has practically sucked all the creativity left in my brain and physically drained me! How much creativity left you ask? Its simple. Let me paint you a picture. The setting: Picture a hammock nestled between two large coconut trees along an aqua green ocean, beside the hammock rests a frosted-cold glass of pink lemonade and the May edition of Southern Lady and Romantic homes. Along the soft sandy white beaches are clusters of tropical chikees and euro-bright sunbrellas! The location: Tahiti! In other real designing news I decided to try my hand at something so easy and elegant to create! I must admit that the credit goes to my previous Saturday spring semester class: "Arts and Crafts in Early Childhood." Aren't these flower pens just darling?! They make simple lovely gifts for Valentines, Showers, Birthdays, and Mothers Day just to name a few! Materials consist of: Self adhesive Green floral tape, Silk Flowers, and pens. The flowers pictured above include blushing Peonies (a current favorite of mine) and sunset colored roses. Other recommended flowers can include: Sunflowers, Gerber Daisies, Orchids, Magnolias, and Gardenias! Have fun, be creative, the possibilities are endless! Until next time designers and treasure hunters! Cheers!
