They just have such style to them.  Melissa has amazing ideas and I like to share them with our readers.  All of you are so creative and we love to learn here at Sis Boom. Melissa as always we are enamored of your love of Sis Boom and your stylish ways.. You make our day!!!!

 

It’s a Sis Boom SUMMER!!

Happy Summer! It’s hard to believe that it’s already July … Before we know it, October will be here!… What?! Why would we mention October?!… Well, we have some really fun pillows coming out mid-October… the Barcelona Collection!! With a little love from fab.com gardening tools, a sweet IKEA outdoor chair, a tall glass of crisp lemonade.. and, last but not least, a Sis Boom Rosetta bag, don’t you want to get in on this?!

We LOVE these pillows for the Summer, but they will also translate beautifully to an Autumn setting. We couldn’t wait until then to share them with you, so we had to get creative and show you what we were thinking on this hot Summer night. Now, imagine those same pillows with a cozy throw on a fluffy white couch?! Carved pumpkins on the stoop, apple pie on the table… Sis Boom says that Autumn can be greens, oranges, blues and pinks.. it doesn’t have to be all about orange and brown.. not for us!

Ok, enough about October! Just enjoy these as eye candy right now, and we will be sure to let you know when they are available on the market. Have a fabulous Summer night!

 

Died and gone to Sis Boom Heaven!

Do you believe this?? I just discovered this shop Kenilworth Place on Etsy and I am head over heels with their fabric choices.  🙂 Seriously we sell pillows this size for 3 times more so if you have something coming up, some event you want to make pretty this price point will convince you to dress the place up!!!  These pillows are gorgeous and use some of the very rare hard to find fabrics from Sis Boom.  Kenilworth, Hats off !! You beguile the imagination. Seriously amazing prices for 16 x 16 !!! Seriously  three pillows makes such a statement and at these prices fuggettaboudit !!

She does it for the love of it

I love how Stephanie Danko of Tabbo Designs surrounds herself in Happy Sis Boom fabric.  For the girls, for her home, for her accessories.  She lives it and has fun.  I love how her girls look so carefree in the skirts she creates for them.  Her girls have made George the puppy from Girls World and she just keeps the fun swirling.  Stephanie I know we would get along!!! Like all of you she’s a giver and gives her time to coaching the cheerleaders in her daughters school. she’s one of us.  lots of things stirring and at the end of the day you can tell she never misses those hugs with her children.  So these are some things I picked up in flickr to share with you all.  love how she embroidered the wristlet bag!!

Things we’re proud of!

We just love how these pillows and rug continue to be popular and folks can’t help themselves.  As always we try to keep your vacation impulses to the Living room.  If you know what I mean.  In this economy it’s better to stay close to home.  My feeling is can’t go on vacation?? By yourself something pretty to cozy up the place.  Start Here.

love you guys!

The best laid plans…all this cause last time I posted and even viewed it it (the post ) disappeared.  So I’m really going to try this time!! I don’t want Maddie to give up on me!!!

So I got these pics in my email from a wonderful girl named Amy who redid her sleeping porch with none other than Sis Boom and look at all those greens harmonizing together.  It’s so beautiful and tranquil…..wonder if I’ll get invited to sleep there???  I think she’s somewhere in Massachusetts!!  With permission we’ll get them in Sis Boom Sightings so you can be inspired too..
