Peppermint |
I call this necklace Peppermint. The inspiration was from this photo of this cake from Southern Living 2011, a peppermint cheesecake. I like the flattened peppermint around the edge. Very creative! Either way, it provided inspiration for this necklace. Enjoy! Peppermint can be purchased at Chrysalis.

Baby Blanket
Tuesday, October 18, 2011
I made this baby blanket for a friend a few weeks ago. I thought the subtle use of color was nice and quite a change for me! This baby blanket is soft and sweet and seems just right for wrapping a baby boy up. You can see another one I made here.

The Governor's Daughter on Style Me Pretty
Thursday, September 22, 2011
The Governor's Daughter is featured on Style Me Pretty today! The theme is Palm Beach Prep and I designed my three necklaces around the style and color selection. I thought they turned out so nicely and I am so thankful to be asked to help Jemma Coleman Photography out. She is an old camp friend and I have talked about her before on here. Check that out here. And go look at at our hard work, featured at http://www.stylemepretty.com/2011/09/22/palm-beach-inspiration-shoot-by-jemma-coleman-photography. Yay for pretty things!
Pseudo Wedding
Wednesday, September 21, 2011
I created the necklace above to go with a great wedding I found online. No, I don't know the bride or groom (no biggie!) but I thought the wedding photos were fantastic and the use of peach was so beautiful. I was inspired by this wedding to make a necklace for the bridesmaids to wear. This necklace can be purchased at my etsy site by clicking here. And as a reminder, The Governor's Daughter makes bridal jewelry and you can review that information by clicking here. This necklace is one of the rare finds on my site! There is more than one Pseudo Wedding, so buy one for your maid of honor, matron of honor and bridesmaid. Check out this wedding at Style Me Pretty by clicking here. Thanks to Style Me Pretty, A. Dominick Events, Abby Jiu Photography and Beehive Events.

I found this picture on sold items on etsy. I wish I had kept it for myself! And I took this picture in my old yard and seeing the orange zinnia makes me appreciate the great yard we had where anything would grow! It is certainly not the case in our new yard. But its getting there. Anyways, just wanted to share an oldie but a goodie. And as always, you can purchase The Governor's Daughter necklaces at our etsy site by clicking here.
The Royal Treatment
Thursday, August 25, 2011
We are off to visit my sister for her birthday and visit with her family. My niece, who is 7 months older than my little girl and is 2, is into purple. And she is in a big girl bed now and I know she would love these beds. I had twin beds growing up and it was great to have one for me and one for my sister. My sister and I both had a set of twin beds in our own rooms but we spent many nights in each others rooms. Very sweet.

Bridal Party
Monday, August 22, 2011
I recently created necklaces for bridesmaids for a wedding. These gals didn't wear them in the wedding but the necklaces were gifts and were made with the wedding colors in mind. Coral, peach, blue and white porcelain, mossy green- they are great colors! Here are the bridesmaids after receiving their gifts at the bridesmaids luncheon. The reception was at the Old Capital in downtown Tallahassee. What a neat idea!
California

Hi, I am back from va-kay! We had a blast in California and here we are in Pfeiffer Beach in Big Sur. On a side note, the Bing search page showed Pfeiffer Beach the next day. What are the chances! After dealing with jet lag, we are back to the daily grind...

Bye Bye Ottoman
Tuesday, July 26, 2011
I said goodbye to my ottoman today. I can call him mine because I made him. Now, it may be the first and last ottoman I make. However, looking at these photos now, I didn't totally finish it. Oh well. There wasn't enough room for him in my new rearranged living room, which is sad, but a friend of mine adopted the ottoman and he will live with them now. Yay! And she has a project to finish:)
