New Posh Tots Baby Bands - Cuteness!

You can't get much cuter than little babies in cute headbands, oh no wait yes you can.....little girls in gorgeous feather headbands.
These headbands are perfect for birthday parties, christening or any other occasion that opts for a bit more glam!






Some more posh tots headbands i've been working on lately are these beautiful brightly coloured flower bands perfect for the summer to match with dresses/outfits.









Get your pinnies out girls it's caking time!

You may have already noticed my love for caking which totally stepped up a gear once my very kind mr man bought me a KMIX for my bday. 
I have been homing in on my cupcake making skills and trying lots of new things and here's how they came out....

What's your favourite cupcake flavour?







And just for a bit of fun some jam tarts for my girlies lunch box hehe. 
Jam tarts are amazingly easy to make this was my first time making them, just search for a recipe and give it a go takes hardly any time or ingredients and makes a yummy treat.



 

New bridal designs hot off the press!

I have been concentrating on a couple of key areas for my accessories recently and here are some designs I have recently been working on for my bridal range.
Pictures do not do these headbands justice they really *sparkle* in real life! 
Let me know what you think :)











General Update On Life And Business

Hi everyone just want to say a massive huge thank you to all my new followers means so much and to everyone else that endures my ramblings every now and again :)
I will be updating my blog today on everything I have been upto recently including new designs, photoshoot collaborations and will break it up into seperate sections so you can choose to read or disguard any posts not of interest to you.

Updates on personal life - My little girl has just started nursery school this last month and as any mum knows this is quite an emotional transition (time to cut the umbilical cord)! She has the best time there and I can safely say that my fridge now looks like all the episodes in the history of art attack has exploded on it, great fun!

Oh and isn't she just a little comedienne!?

I will be doing my first ever stall at a show for a Jubilee party in June so I have been busy preparing for that and planning my table.
Would never have realised how much thought has to go into doing one of these but will be interesting to see how it goes as i've always wanted to hit the wedding fayres in the not too distant future. 

If anyone has ever done a stall or has any good tips please let me know :)

Festival Themed Photoshoot Bo Ho Chic

A while ago I was contacted by photographer Holly Booth as she was organizing a photo shoot with a festival theme in mind for designer Kate Wrigglesworth. 

Holly contacted me as she thought my festival bohemian style hair garlands would accessorise the outfits perfectly and wow didn't they just!

Holly is a professional freelance photographer based in Derby who produces work for a variety of clients all over the UK including Beatrix Brown, AIRR Clothing and a number of up & coming young designers. She has also recently photographed Pearl Lowe's stationery collection.
Holly really captures a theme brilliantly and brings ideas to life from fun shoots like this to sultry shots with intensity, definitely a name to look out for in the future.

I have just had the go ahead to share these beautiful images that were taken and had to post them on here for you to see as I have fallen in love with them.

Warning these pictures will make you long for summer days!











Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone! Hope you are all enjoying your chocolate induced food comas. 
Yesterday I made an attempt of a bunny butt cake, the idea is it's supposed to look like the bunny is digging in the dirt, i'll let you be the judge of that....no laughing! Hehe.
Here he is.....


What are you upto for Easter hope everyone is having a lovely time with family and friends wherever you are.
We started off our morning painting faces on our eggs and soldiers, childhood memories flooding back and will be having a big fat roast dinner later on, yum!
