A sense of achievement

There is always a great feeling that, yes - "I actually did that!" when you meet your deadline. Well, for me there is. I had a mad day yesterday when I found out that I needed to get some headbands ready for a fashion parade the next day. I didn't think I could do it, and yes I did stay up to a ridiculous hour this morning which wasn't my wisest move, but I am sooo pleased that I managed to get them done. Fantastic!

B Tween Tides is a new fashion boutique for tots to teens opening up in our town, and I am thrilled that they will be stocking some of my creations! So I spent last night creating and finishing Ava, Audrey, Isabella and Bella Blossom headbands in as many different colours that I could in a short time. The end result was that I managed to create 12 headbands and get them delivered by this morning! Here is a look at some of the creations.

This is a mini Stella headband. I was just wanting to do a simple version to match a similar styled shirt in store.

 A small felt Audrey

A medium organza Audrey

Another medium organza Audrey

I think this might be my favourite - a small Ava featuring a rhinestone centre

An experiment with an Isabella which I am really pleased with the end result - very shabby chic.

A large Bella Blossom flower

A cute, super curly Bella Blossom

Another variation on the Isabella theme

The end result, packaged, coded and ready for delivery. 

An Emily Rose rolled flower on stretch elastic.

It just shows you what you can achieve when you set your mind to it. I guess we have reserves we just didn't realise we had when there is a need!

Well, I am off to have some well deserved sleep. I am also looking forward to a night out with my girlfriends in the weekend which should be fantastic too so it isn't all work and no play!!!
