Wow! I've been busy!

I have been so busy getting Christmas orders out that I haven't stayed up with my blogging....I'll do better. Thought I would share some quick pics of a few things I finished up last week.

I did these shirts for two sisters for their Christmas picture. I love the bright colors and the sass that this tree has! The bows complete the fun, funky outfit. And don't forget the dog, see the mini bow in the middle? That's for their dog for the picture!!! Chasity, can't wait to see the picture!

This set of shirts are for my favorite beach bunnies down on the Florida coast! Their mom is one of my dearest friends and a professional photographer - so I am hoping for a picture of them in their holiday finest!!

These bows are so cute! I love making Christmas bows, something about the reds, greens, and polka dots, of course!

A few new pieces

I have worked on several things this week. The above burp cloth set just proves I don't do ALL girl stuff! This set is "vintage baseball". I think it turned out really cute.

Pink and brown. Two of my favorite color combinations! I love the "m" too! All of my burp cloth sets are 12.00. Any of the ones on this site or my Etsy site can be made with any initial.

Here is the set of 2 I made. I love, love, love these!

This is an upclose of my largest bow holder. I love the combination, it would look great in a little diva's room.

This bow holder is 24" wide. It will hold 20 or so large bows (5") It will hold several more of the smaller ones. These are great to keep your darlings bows clean and in tact. This one is 40.00. These make great Christmas gifts and can be done with your colors of choice.

Here is a smaller version with adorable polka dots!!

This bow holder is 19" wide. It has 3 columns and will hold approximately 15 large bows (5") and 20+ of the smaller bows. This one is 30.00 + shipping if you don't live in a deliverable area.

The Flower onesie. Is this cute or what! It was a special order for a very special little princess. These can be made is so many different color combinations. The possibilities are endless!

Here is the matching bib! Isn't it a cute set? The bib is chenille backed. I love doing this personalized bibs but have to keep the name to 6 letters or less. The onesie is 10.00 and the bib is 12.00 personilized. The set is 20.00 for both. The bib is this picture has a little bow attached that was included in this gift set. I do custom boutique bows also.

The name canvas is my newest addition to The Polka Dot Factory. This one was also for little Elyse! It matched her room and was complete with small crystal rhinestones. These name canvases are 30.00.

Show us what you make!

I'm jumping on the blog parade over at Kelly's Korner....
It's "show us what you make" day and, wow, are there lots of talented people in the world! I am new to the "public" but have been making things for my family and friends for years. I love to create new ideas I "think up" and also when someone calls and says, "can you do....." Creativity is a gift from my grandmothers and mother, a gift I am very thankful for. SO, jump on this parade with me and do some holiday shopping!!
