Hand Painted Lace Leotard

Flower Girl Dress

For the third year in a row, I’ve had the hon­or to make Miss Cata­leya’s birth­day leo­tard. This year, she chose the hand paint­ed lace #5284 leo­tard with bright orange and yel­low flo­rals and back cham­pagne but­tons. The body­suit is lined with shim­mery gold rayon. This piece is cus­tom made and part of the House of God­frey Col­lec­tion. Shop the leo­tard on the Ana­gras­sia web­site here (Ana­gras­sia tulle skirt is pic­tured...

So Much Dishonesty in One Photo

The girls in this pho­to were some of my first cus­tomers. I’ll nev­er for­get them because I real­ly enjoyed work­ing with them and they were the first ones to ever wear (and helped design) the #0908 lace leotard. But in just this one screen­shot, you can see so much dishonesty. First, the image was water­marked by 2 (maybe 3) dif­fer­ent Chi­nese companies. Sec­ond, the pho­to is used for anoth­er Etsy...

The Calling of the Artist

Ukrainian Seamstress Tailor Mary Grace Godfrey

The best things in life uplift us. I am not talk­ing about ele­va­tors when we need to get to the top floor, (although that is nice). Rather I am talk­ing about lift­ing our spir­its as we go about our day-to-day activ­i­ties. This is the role of the artist, who “give us enthu­si­asm to do our work” as St. John Paul II said in his famous Let­ter to Artists. Beau­ty speaks...

Before my nieces sep­a­rat­ed for the sum­mer, my sis­ters and I decid­ed it would be fun to have the girls dress up in Ana­gras­sia (Over­stock Shop) flower girl lace leotards/bodysuits and tulle skirts and have a tea party. The girls enjoyed Babcha’s sprin­kled cup­cakes, Bam­ber’s Mar­ket cook­ies, and milk. Because of the Pan­do­ra (French Cafe) music play­ing in the back­ground, it was near­ly impos­si­ble to keep one of my nieces from get­ting up...
