Here are some idea's for the Holiday Ornament Swap

Hello Beauties,
I did a video on the ornament swap. If you fast forward past the swap info you will see some ideas for your ornaments. I hope this helps!








Purple Passion Shabby Chic Dress Form

Hi Lovelies I just thought I would share with you my latest Dress Form Kit available in a limited quantity.  These kits have been very popular and this kit is a beautiful shade of Dark Purple and Lavender. 


I will also have available Purple Passion Embellishment Kits in case you already own the dress form and want to change your colors like a paper doll as I mentioned in my first Shabby Chic Post for Dressforms.  This season Lavender is a really popular color for Christmas it is going to be the "hot" color to have for your decor.


I will be adding new Embellishment Kits in different styles and colors, if there is a custom kit that you are interested please let me know I can make one in your colors just for you.  Have a great day!

Holiday Ornament Swap

Hello Beauties!
Are you up for another awesome swap???? Well, the new swap will be a Holiday ornament swap! Yay! Here is how it will work:
1. We will be divided up into groups of 6.
2. You will have to make 5 ornaments to swap and one for yourself if you would like.
3. The ornaments do not have to all be the same.
4. Do not go out and buy the plastic bulb ornaments because they are to big and round for the bubble mailer envelopes!
5. You can use recycled material like frozen juice can lids, thread spools, CD's and so on and chipboard die      cuts.
6. They must be Shabby Chic or Vintage in design!
7. Make sure you send a self addressed and postage paid envelope with your ornaments. If you need help with this just send me a message:)
8. Make a tag with your name and info on it and your group # and add the tag to each ornament. Please do not add your info to the back of the ornaments!
You will have till November 7th to sign up and all ornaments should be mailed out to me no later then December 10th. Please if you sign up make sure you can participate because it would not be fair to the rest if you back out at the last minute! Please email me at creativepatti@gmail.com to sign up! Make sure you tell your friends because the more the merrier! When you sign up I will send you my address so you know where to mail the ornaments. I will then divide them up among your group and mail them out to all of you.
I hope you all can join us!
Hugs♥

French Country Dress Form


Hello everyone I put together this kit for my French Country girls. I filled it full of French Country goodies.

The second Dress Form Kit in my Series of Color Choices.  The colors are really fun to create so many other things.  The papers and embellishments that I included could be used for Christmas Projects, Valentines or any occassion.

I decorated the acrylic box with some of the items that I included in the kit. I searched for these unique vintage items at Thrift Stores, Antique Stores and Flea Markets. You can decorate the box to suit your style.

This kit would be lovely for someone who loves Dress Forms, Vintage Wedding Appliques, Sequins, Tea-Dyed Laces, Trims and Flowers and anything girly.

You can find this kit in a limited supply available at our store just click the link on the left sidebar and it will take you to our Artfire Store.

Thanks for stopping by to visit us.

P.S. If you are interested in a custom made Embellishment Kit please let me know and I will be happy to create a one-of-a-kind Kit just for you.  Stay tuned as the third Dress Form Kit will called Purple Passion and will feature Lavender, Dark Plum and Tea-Dyed embellishments.

Have a Great Day!


Have a wonderful day!

Hugs
