Gift Wrap

I just wanted to share these pretty little communion favors I just put together for a customer. They are wire votive holders that I wrapped up in tulle, tied with pink ribbon and my favorite part is the little tag I made on my computer. I love pretty little gift tags. And I think wrapping gifts are so much fun and just as important as the gift itself! I guess that is why I just bought ANOTHER book to add to my collection. This one has such pretty pictures and some great gift wrapping ideas!

Girls Room Redo

I have just finished a really fun project. I was hired to redo an 11 yr old girl's bedroom. I have posted the before and after shots. She wanted a lime green and blue color scheme. Her mom wanted to keep the pink rug in the room so we worked a little pink in the bedding and accessories. I just finished hanging wall accessories today and I think we might need just a few more things to complete the room. So, for this project I went on a couple of shopping trips with the girl and her mom and we picked out bedding, window treatments, side table, lamp, hardware and shelves. We found some good bargains for this room such as a small metal side table from Ikea ($19.99) but it was black so I painted it blue! And the full length mirror in the corner was a great find for $50 but it was a dark stain so I painted it white. I also made a fabric memo board for the room and installed new drawer pulls on the dressers. Such a difference! Another great find were the paper lanterns in the corner of the room. They were at Old Navy 2 for $10 and they have battery operated lights inside. So cool! I just love projects like these.

Make sure you stop by Sanctuary Arts at Home for more Before and After projects!

Pink is the New Black

I have to share this adorable tee I found at Old Navy for my little one. I know my friends at Make Mine Pink are going to love this one! I wonder if they have them in adult sizes, I didn't think to check when I was there!

And I am just curious, how many of you decorate your home with Pink? I love the color, and a lot of my creations contain pink. However, on LI, I don't see a lot of customers asking for pink. But it seems popular on the internet and I believe it is becoming a new color trend. What do you think?
