Caravelle Arcade

Caravelle Arcade was an open pavilion of shops in St. Croix and as a young girl I was window dresser to many!!  Probably making a dollar an hour I sweat inside glass cases to drape and perfect my visual talents little did I know it was prepping me for the big time store Bonwit Teller!! This island this special island in the Caribbean Sea was home to my family for many years.  I think you can tell through the years of my work I have never left my past behind me it lives on through my textiles!!! Homage to St. Croix where the gifts keep on giving. Ships in May!! 2015.bp2

Sis Boom Bed!

Hi Everyone!

As I previously mentioned, my professional background includes putting together bedding collections.  In fact, long before I joined Sis Boom, I was using Jennifer’s lines to make duvets, sheet sets, dust ruffles, upholstered headboards, toss pillows, curtains and more! While my mind automatically sees a large scale floral and thinks “duvet,” you guys turn the same exact print into the most beautiful clothing, quilts, aprons, shower curtains, etc. I have ever seen! I am CONSTANTLY blown away by your creativity. Since you have been so gracious in sharing your creations with us, I’d thought I’d share with you how my mind views a brand new Jennifer Paganelli collection. And speaking of brand new, I will be using fabrics that can be found in her upcoming “Good Company” line to be released in November 2014.

Reverse of Duvet/Dust Ruffle Options:

Sheet Set:

Another great suggestion is using a large bold pattern for an upholstered headboard like these:

gchb

 

 

 

and use a combination of solid colors found in the print as your duvet!

An upholstered headboard can be found in Happy Home by Jennifer Paganelli!

 

Keep your creations coming! We love seeing them!!

Pom Pom Party Pouf & Garland Tutorial!

It’s time to craft!!! Join Jennifer as she walks you through the Pom Pom Party Pouf & Garland tutorial from Happy Home.

It’s a GREAT project for the Summer — think of all those special moments you can decorate… from BBQ’s, birthday parties and beach parties to weddings, kiddo parties, and well, even a special room in your home!

These are fabulous projects to do with kids, as there are kid-friendly options. The Plastic poms you will see come wrapped up in a twisty tie. It’s a safe alternative to the hot glue gun, and still achieves the same, beautiful result.

As always, we like to remind folks that the glue gun should ONLY be used with parental supervision. It can get very hot and can be dangerous.

Most importantly, HAVE FUN!

Materials:

A Sis Boom Cottage!

Fresh cut flowers, a warm breeze, lemonade in your hand, and your feet up on a soft, handcrafted quilt. The curtains billow in the air as a Summer breeze passes through, and you dream of your next sewing project… A pillow? A table cloth? A satchel?… all things that make your life just a little bit sweeter. You’re in a Sis Boom cottage, and it’s perfectly balanced between a soft, whimsy sensibility and a sleek modern spin… Somewhere in the middle of those two worlds is where Sis Boom lies. Pom poms and cotton meet glitter and sheen to create a welcoming, happy, inspiring place for you and your family to dream, love and play.

As you know we are getting ready for our annual show coming up Dec. 13, 14,15th that Thursday, Friday, Saturday.  So I just want to say I’m in the speed lane of crafting and enjoying my time immensely in the craft room.  My husband Peter and my assistant Madeline are making it so nice for me so that I ‘m free to create 100’s of items for the show so from October to December I don’t look up hardly.  But as crafters all know something amazingly divine happens when we are in the zone. It’s a magical time and I have so many ideas and those ideas breed new ideas so there is no time to despair.  I hope you all our well I’ve been thinking so much about the Sandy victims and praying for them and trying to do what I can.  Before I leave you I wanted to show you the Vanessa and Bettyann ready to be launched in two short weeks and it’s a very exciting time.  This is one of the last items in our book Happy Home to be done and then all the clothes in the book will be patterns.!!!  Thank you Carla for making this all come to life.  You are the best!

 

Below is Judy /Buchanan version . Thanks Hickity Pickity.  Judy takes custom orders!!!

Vanessa is the adult and Bettyann is the child’s!

 

As for Happy Home I am so grateful to all of you for your likes and reviews on Amazon and I hope you will find exciting things to create. Remember it makes a great gift along with Girls World on special in our shop.  The Canopy and Headboard below are both part of the Happy Home book and can be done so inexpensively.  I hope your juices are flowing and you will be ready to create a space for yourself in the New Year. I am so excited for 2013.
