I am more than happy to do custom sizes. I can make most of my designs fit any body! Just drop me a line. Please be certain of your size when you order, as I cannot accept any returns because it is custom work and for hygienic reasons…I’m sure you understand.

If you see a fabric you like, but would like it in a different style, just ask, as I can mix and match many of the fabrics/trims/styles to create something just for you!

Isn’t that a wonderful idea for a gift – especially for a new bride?  You’d think that custom-made bras would be pricey, but the prices were very reasonable.  Items include panties, bras, and camisoles. Here are a few items that I would like to add to my wish list…

Organic Cotton Sweetspire Camisole
$35

This camisole looks so soft and comfy. It would be perfect for bedtime or layered beneath a sweater. It’s available in sizes extra small through extra large.

Organic Cotton Summersweet Bra
$33

I love the colors used here – sage and brown. This bra would probably work best if your figure was on the petite to average size as the bra does not have an underwire.

Organic Cotton Lily of the Valley Panties
$21

These lace-trimmed panties can be paired with On the Inside’s Star Jasmine camisole. The Summersweet bra can also be made to match.

Peasant-Sleeved Shrug
$70

Do you dread leaving your favorite Summer favorites behind? How about extending the life of those sleeveless tops with this shrug made in an organic cotton/bamboo lycra jersey.  It features a 4-way stretch that grows softer with each and every wash. It’s shown here in a charcoal-gray and black. It also comes in an ivory and lavender, but the ad says you can chose “anything your heart desires,” so convo the seller for additional color choices?

I love the sleeves, the way they hang. It reminds me of playing dress-up as a kid. It appeals to my inner princess. I enjoy clothing that is fun, as well as useful. 

Long Sleeve Hoodie with Thumbholes
$90

I forsee many comfy weekends spent in this adorable organic bamboo/cotton jersey hoodie. It’s shown here in a pink and raspberry stripe, but you can get it in a two-tone red, as well. Convo the seller for additional color choices. The hoodie has a “kanga” pocket and thumbholes at the end of the sleeves. The hood is “roomy” and the edges are serged off all around.

It’s designed with a waist-whittling secret – the hem is slightly longer at the ends, which gives the effect of a smaller waist.

Men’s Baseball Tee
$75

Here’s something for your guy. How about treating him to a handmade, sized to his measurements, tee. It  features an “athletic cut and distressed details.”  It’s made with an organic cotton/bamboo jersey fabric. It’s shown in a white with dusty gray sleeves, but it’s available in “any color combo.” 

The graphic is hand-drawn and you can skip it or use your own illustration idea for your tee.

The look is a mix of bold and feminine. The use of heavier-weight materials or a wider necklace takes a girly item and give it a touch of edginess. Some of the choker designs include multi-strand chains, beading – glass or metal, assorted baubles, and gemstones. Take a look at Rihanna below for an example.

I found some cute chokers in the Leaf Lee shopat Etsy.  My favorite is this one, the Gold Mesopotamian Style Wire Wrapped Necklace. The use of varying sizes of metallic beads draws your eye all over the necklace. It’s an interesting piece – on trend and very reasonably priced at $28.

The Red Oriental Wire Wrapped Necklace adds a burst of color at the neckline. It’s made of flexible wire with a mixture of beads – glass, plastic, and pearl. It’s a bold color choice for only $28.

Leaf Lee’s Chain Necklace is made from dangling bits of chain. The links are of a large diameter. This choker sells for $34.

The Alice graphic is decoupaged to a tile, making it secure, but not waterproof, so take it off before hitting the shower. The pendants are shipped in a little organza bag making them perfect for giving as a gift. They are only $5 so you can complete the entire Alice in Wonderland collection easily.

Alice in Wonderland Pendant
$5

Take a look at the IMCreations shop for more recycled Alice and other Scrabble tile necklaces.  A few of the examples are shown below.

A couple of my favorites include this black flower silhouette with a white background, a Klimnt mother and child pendant, a peacock feather, and my favorite is this black chandelier on a lime background.

Beekman 1802 is an artisanal soap, handmade, wrapped in brown paper, and then slipped into a cute little mill cloth drawstring bag. Each bar carries the Beekman stamp. They’d look lovely arranged in a nice bowl on your countertop, but resist that impulse and no matter how pretty, go ahead, use the soap. You can always order more.

I used the Original goat’s milk unscented,soap last night and this morning. I did my no-moisturizer skin test, so that I could accurately judge the way the product worked on my skin. I found it to leave my skin smooth, not dry, even though it’s a bar soap. My son has very sensitive skin and I was very impressed by the way his skin reacted.

In addition to soap, Beekman’s 1802 also makes products for baby, skin therapy products, stationary, and fine hand-woven linens.
