Masterpiece - My Baby Sea Turtles Quilt and Nursery Collection

I can't help but be a little proud of my Sea Turtle Nursery Collection especially when it is all put together in a room with the crib.

It took hours and hours to complete. It wasn't easy doing it with a toddler and newborn to look after, but I couldn't let my client down.

To see more photos go to my Flickr site.

I am accepting orders for some of the pieces from this collection. Please email for any questions.

The Holidays

As I wrap up projects before the holidays begin, I am looking towards the new year with some new designs and new accessories. But, for the entire month of December I am taking a break from production to enjoy the holidays with my family.

My Sea Turtle Nursery Collection has been in great demand and I can't seem to keep up with production. So, with that said, I unfortunately have had to cut back and offer only a few pieces from the collection at this time. If I could only clone myself!

I have high hopes for 2009 and I hope I can get better organized so I can take on more clients. Like I mentioned in my last post, I am having a hard time juggling young kids and my business.

It's Been a While

It has been quite a long time since I blogged on my site. It's largely due to that fact that I am seriously overwhelmed with taking care of my kiddos. Ever since my son was born this past June and taking care of my 3 year old son life has just been so crazy! I make all these goals for myself and "to-do" lists, but only a fraction of that list gets accomplished. So, with that said, I simply have not had any time to dedicate to my business. I still have some outstanding orders that I have to complete, but once I am done with that I will be taking a break from the business and only producing items when I have the time. This is not to say that if someone were to ask me to create something custom for them I wouldn't entertain the request.

On another note, I recently reviewed my sales report for the entire year (Etsy, CafePress and Zazzle) and here are the stats for my most popular designs (1 being the most popular)

1. Baby Sea Turtle












2. Baby Panda & Mama
3. Pink (Sakura) Cherry Blossom
4. Blue Elephant Walk

Sakura Cherry Blossom Birth Announcement

A NEW ADDITION to my baby birth announcements section on Etsy.

I've taken my Cherry Blossom (sakura) design and designed a modern yet elegant birth announcement. Appropriate for a sweet new baby girl.

Symbolism of the Sakura:
"In China, the cherry blossom is a symbol of feminine beauty. It also represents the feminine principle and love in the language of herbs. In Japan, cherry blossoms symbolize the transience of life because of their short blooming times. They have also come to represent clouds of their nature of blooming en masse. Falling blossoms are metaphors for fallen warriors who died bravely in battle. This connotation links them with the samurai."

More on my custom nursery designs

I have posted more pictures of my custom Honu (Sea Turtle) nursery designs on my Flickr site. I now have samples of the quilt, crib skirt and throw. The bumper guard is still in production as well as the window valances.
