Amazing Feedback!!

I just wanted to share of the feedback that I received from Jennifer Elsner. Jen is the mom of Peyton, who has SMA (Spinal Muscular Atrophy), and they hold an annual golf outing to help raise money for Peyton's care. I donated 2 tutus to the outing...to be custom-made for the raffle winners. I sent along 3 tutus to show the quality of the workmanship and told her that if they really like the ones on display instead of a custom-made one, they can do have them. Apparently, they were such a hit that the raffle winners chose the display tutus!! That's such a compliment as far as I am concerned!! Below is Jen's message to me via Facebook.

"WOW Jayme - the tutus were SUCH a HIT!!! Everyone Loved them!!! The ones you gave, the people wanted to keep so no gift cert necessary :)! The black n pink one was highly sought after! Thank you so much...... the 2 w/ the sequins along the top went on the $10 raffle tables and there had to be 15-20 tickets in each bucket!!! That means they technically went for $150 - $200!!! Yay!!! Thanks so much Darlin'!!!" - Jennifer Elsner

The Photoshoot

I'm so excited and blessed to have an amazing photographer partner with me on this venture!! Denise Watrous of Watrous Photograpy made my tutus come to life!! And, as part of this partnership, she will be offering a coupon to Watrous Photography to anyone who purchases a tutu from me. Isn't that fabulous!?! Please visit her website, and her photo blog to see how truly amazing she really is!

All of the tutus are for sale (except the Princess - its already sold). Please fill out the online ordering form if you're interested!

The pictures will be added in separate posts!

The Butterfly

This brightly colored tutu is so fabulous!! I've made this one with over 100 yards of 3" tulle and accented with a pink and white polka dot ribbon. This is the closest thing that depicts what I dreamed these tutus would become!

This tutu is for sale for $40.


The Princess

The Princess was custom made for Paige's (not pictured) K5 graduation, as her graduation gift from Aunt Karen! :) I wasn't sure at first that I loved the pastels, as I'm partial to the bright colors, but it turned out to be my favorite!! These pictures don't capture the detail, but its stunning!

This exact tutu isn't for sale, but can most definitely be duplicated to your specifications!


The Minnie

I love The Minnie!! I thought black might be hard to pull off...but with the fushia sparkle tulle on this...it just pops! The hot pink fedora gives it such a cute "edge"!

This tutu is for sale for $40.


The Jenna

The Jenna was recreated due to popular demand! The "real Jenna" loved her tutu so much and so did her little friends!! :) And these photos are ah-mazing!

This tutu is for sale for $35.
