“Someone Will Win a Pink Diamond”

We are so excited! As a proud member of MakeMinePink.com, we have joined with other Pink Boutiques and Make Mine Pink for the “Pink Diamond Campaign”.

Every year Make Mine Pink likes to do something special to honor our valued customers, clients and friends. In all, $2500 worth of fabulous pink prizes will be awarded throughout the contest with a Grand Prize of a genuine pink diamond pendant.

There are several fun ways to win prizes for the Campaign, by just visiting the boutiques at Make Mine Pink and locating the six diamonds hidden among the participating Pink Boutiques each of the six month, or you may see one of the Make Mine Pink boutique owners wearing her pink rhinestone “MMP” pin as she goes about day to day activities, or making a donation to a favorite women’s charity. A monthly prize will be awarded for May, June, July, August and September entries with a grand prize awarded for the month of October. It’s that easy!

Join us in our excitement by visiting the boutiques at Make Mine Pink.

A little about my textile art.....

My vintage fabric collages combine my love of vintage textiles and my love of words. Words are powerful and a beautiful phrase can evoke such emotion. My collage designs are built around the wise words of an old poet or author, which I handstitch in a simple lettering. I use vintage fabrics, laces, buttons, etc...all handstitched in a unique way to mirror the words - there is always a little mystery with the finished product, but if you look closely you will see the simple beauty of the words reflected in the design. I collect old vintage frames throughout the year to frame each collage in. Below is a sampling of some of my pieces....

A Little About Me....

I was born in Colorado Springs, Colorado, but have lived in Texas most of my life. My home is in a small Northeast Texas town and has been for most of the last 18 years. I am an avid reader, gardener and "Junk Queen", always trying to find new life for old things. It is a joke in my family that everything in our house is a little "wobbly"! I have always loved all things old, especially early (19th century) pieces, whether they be linens, quilts, lace, embroidery, or furniture.I am a former teacher, who took a leap of faith 2 years ago to pursue my creative dream....I design with vintage pieces, as well as new fabric with always lots of pink roses!! I have loved shabby cottage style since way before it was "chic", and most of my work reflects that. I am truly inspired by the old handcrafted works of women, the amount of time put into old handwork like tatting and embroidery, lacemaking, quilting, spinning and weaving is amazing.My creative endeavors have included writing, photography, painting and now fabric creations & textile art. Alas, the urge to create always whispers at the edges of my mind.....
