Party Apron, Hostess Outfit, Wearable Art!

Turn a basic black-pants-and-top into a festive party outfit when you wear this Art Collage Hostess Apron! See 8 new aprons in my Etsy shop.

What a conversation starter too! Lots of fun images from the best of my fabric collection: sock monkeys, cakes, Dr. Suess pictures, seashells, just take a look. Lots of fun. 

Makes a wonderful hostess gift!

 

Couture Fantasy Coat from Amber Studios!

Look at this floral fantasy coat from Barbara at Amber Studios! Isn't it stunning? 

She starts with an upcycled boiled wool sweater, makes it into a coat, and then it's loaded with the most exquisite handmade embellishments! I've seen Barbara's coats in person and they are over-the-top wonderful. She takes her customer's measurements, listens to their preferences, and then creates a coat of their dreams. They all have a feminine shape and lovely drape.

Feast your eyes in her shop, and view her sold items too. 

Not only is she a fabulous artist, but she's a sweet person too.

Wearable Art by Amber Studios

Barbara of Amber Studios in New Jersey creates the most wonderful wearable art! If I was a snow princess I would definitely wear this sweater. And I'd keep my castle nice and cool so I could wear it indoors too.

Another show-stopper by Barbara, a woodland style bag with felted flowers. Wow!

Jeans for Fabric Lovers

What a fun way to use some of your favorite fabrics. This looks like raw-edge applique. I like this!

A perfect wedding dress for the elegant winter pixie bride, this is just one of Barbara's incredible creations available at Amber Studios on Etsy.

This beautiful woodland pixie coat (above) is one of my favorites.
