FFA Fun

My daughter is actively involved in our local chapter of Future Farmers of America.
This past weekend she participated in a plant sale at her highschool. The community comes out and is able to purchase plants and produce that the High School students here raise as part of their Agricultural Science Elective classes.
My daughter raised some honey suckle plants as well as sold some fruit from our little organic orchard.
It was a beautiful day! I took a small tour of the Agriculture Department of her high school and taken back by all the beauty of the plants grown by her fellow classmates. The new green house was so exciting to see. My daughter helped lay the pipes for the new greenhouse during her class time. So exciting to see the end results!

Nothing like sibling support :0) ~ What a great day!

It's Wendy, Darling!

When a customer recently approached me asking me to design her an adult sized Wendy Costume, I was excited about the idea. I have sewn for my own children and self in the past in larger sizes, but this was going to be the first "Ollie Girl!" adult sized creation! My eldest daughter, has some striking resemblances to Wendy and immediately wanted one herself! She had so much fun doing her own hair for our little photo shoot. I think she did great! She is tickled to officially be an Ollie Girl! ;0)

Easter Vacation with my customers part 2!

Okay... more to add to the Ollie Girl! "Brag Book" ;0)

This sweet little red head is seaside ready with her beautiful mommy in her Pink Seahorse Ollie Girl! set with double ruffle pettipants. I just love how she finished her look with the sunglasses! What a cutie pie!

Easter Vacation with my customers :0)

I have had the pleasure of meeting and working with some of the nicest customers!
One of my most favorite emails to receive are those with pictures attached of little princesses in their Ollie Girl! Creations.
You will notice below that I had the pleasure of outfitting these adorable princess sisters for a couple trips to Disney.
Aren't they adorable!:0)
Ollie Girl! Creations can make a trip to Disney that much more "Magical".
Our creations encourage fun interaction between characters and a child. And let's not forget all those fun photo opportunities as seen in many of my customer's photos:0) Precious moments like these will create wonderful memories to last a lifetime!

I would like to wish you all a beautiful Easter. May you enjoy your time with loved ones, family and friends. He is risen!

Another fun Alice rendition

When a customer approached me with the idea to do a rendition of the National English Ballet gown, I was immediately inspired. The traditional styling of this dress along with the whimsical details would allow for me to run wild with some sideline fun ;0)
The dress is constructed of 100% cotton sateens, which you must know was a DREAM for me to work with! It's hard to beleive a cotton can have such a natural sheen, but there it was... just beautiful!
The dresses details include double eyelett ruffled sleeve hems, 3 rows of satin ribbon at the dress hemline, covered buttons with a removeable apron. The apron is sateen as well and has beautiful stitch detailing, velvet trim, double ruffles, pockets, and Alice's key to unlock the magical fun of her Wonderland world!
This dress is worn with a pettiskirt to showcase it's fullness.

I will be listing this special gown in my Etsy Store, and at boutiqueolliegirl.com website soon.
I am thrilled to share this fun creation with you all! I am headed back to the sewing studio as I have many little princesses awaiting their special dresses. Please contact me with any questions. Thank you!
