The BIG Surprise

I am so excited to finally share my good news with you guys!

Violet Bella has just joined RED VELVET ART!!! Eeeekkk, I could not be more excited! I have been a big fan of Elsie, RVA, and all the girls, for quite some time. Their cuteness and craftyness has been a big inspiration to me to always keep going!

I am completely honored to have been chosen for their site. And Elsie asked me to model the jewelry and take some shots for the website, which I was super stoked (and a bit nervous) to do! There are the 11 necklaces to be found only at RVA, here are some of them. I made each one exclusive to their shop!

Go find them in the accessories section! And check out their blog to see the other talented artists that are joining! I am so excited for all of the shop renovations going on in RVA, online and brick & mortar style. They are living some of my dreams!









Thanks RVA for welcoming Violet Bella, xoxo.

PEACE,
Laura

Thankful

Since I am too tired tonite to take my own photo, I borrowed this beautiful one from Pink Suede Shoe. I adore it!


Honestly, at first, all I wanted to write about was how tired I was and how much was going on right now. But instead, I want to write about how thankful I am. I am so thankful for the family I have. James and I have had a crazy week with lots of silly things going on like toilets and fridges going out on us and crazy work related stuff... but it seems like anytime things go wrong, our parents have been there to pick us back up. My dad helped James figure some house stuff out while I came over sick as a dog. And then James parents came over twice, once to check out our fridge and toilet and then the next day brought us their own fridge b/c we were going to have to buy one! Talk about the sweetest best parent in laws one could ever ask for! I am so thankful to have them in our lives. And my daddy, he is always so quick to help anytime I need him.

Then I also got to spend a bit of time with my nanna and her man, and my aunt Lisa (my mom's sister), and I am always reminded of their love when I am around them. They are never short of letting me know how much they love me. I have the best family a girl could ask for. And I am super thankful.

AND... my surprise news should be coming out late tonite or sometime tomorrow!!!

PEACE,
Laura

Style Feature: Lucy Magnolia

{I have been wanting to showcase other talented artists for quite some time, so this will be an ongoing series... these are people, whom to me, portray all of the above qualities... LOVE, CREATIVITY, and of course STYLE! First runner up is....


I am so happy to have found this little gem on etsy not too long ago. I already have two of her dresses, so I can say for myself in person, they are just delightful. Each one is super unique. They are all flowy and etheral, and make you feel so pretty and girly. The sizes pretty much fit all. One I got was listed as a medium/large, but fits me a small. But I can see how it would fit all well, the bodices are usually made of very soft stretch knit fabric.

She is a college art student, so go support her visions! Her prices are way too cheap, so get one now before they go up as the demand goes up, b/c I know it will! And she is super sweet, which to me makes all the difference when buying handmade from someone!
