I have big news to share! 🍾📣 My mom wrote a book❕❕❕
“Nursing, Yes I Do! - In Honor of Nurses Everywhere” is a memoir of her life and experience as a nurse through many different roles through the late 1970’s to the present day.
Under a pen name, she shares her stories from the hospital as a new nurse, experiencing everything for the first time. The first IV, the first baby born, the first life lost, the first burn victim - and everything in between.
I’m so incredibly proud of her and am thrilled to be able to share the details of her first local book signing where you can purchase a copy of the book!
🤍 August 3rd 1-3pm The Bookworm & BW Gifts LLC 🤍
Follow her on Facebook at Nursing, Yes I Do and leave a review on her Amazon page! I’ve got a link in my bio!! Your reviews and support make such a huge difference for the success of the book. Show my momma some love!!

Our girl positively slaying her wedding ensemble as we knew she would!
Felicia came to us at first to make her a custom cape. When she brought in her wedding dress to try it all on, we saw there was still some work that needed to be done. 🥲 This happens from time to time, but we were happy to be able to dig into the tough stuff to perfect her dress for her!
I can’t wait to see more of her Harry Potter themed wedding from last year! She had OWLS, you guys! Owls!!! 🦉🤩👏

Say hello to Anna! ✨ Pronounced Ah-Nah 😘 Some of you may recognize her from fittings - though without her pretty pink hair! So I wanted you all to say hi and look forward to seeing more of her when you come in to our shop!
Give her a follow on her page to check out her own original work! 🤍🤩maybee

Are photos still ok to post….?

Reading your testimonials always gets me 😭🙏 Thanks so much for your thoughtful words, Melanie! We loved creating your beautiful dress!

prompt brought me back to one of the most beautiful/difficult fabrics I’ve ever worked on.
Liquid-look organza. Everything about this fabric was trying new things - ultimately to change them. Hell, even now - over 6 years later I can think of some things I would do differently!
That’s what happens when each garment you make is custom though. There is a lot to consider between body types, form and function with materials. But I love a challenge and despise habit - so I always jump to try new things!
Anywho… this fabric has literal plastic tube-like fibers, which prevented it from folding flat on itself length wise, so we had to use the cross grain. That also made pressing and finishing the seams and hem fun. 🫠
Draping in actual organza didn’t pan out to provide as accurate a fitted bodice as I thought, so there was a lot of adjusting.
Needless to say, I don’t think I’ll look forward to working with this fabric ever again - but Kathy sure looked amazing, huh?!

Our Etsy shop is back and packed with some new vintage pieces!!
