Spring/Summer 2012 Photos

More Spring/Summer 2012 Photos!

I couldn't resist sharing ALL of the photos from our super fun Las Vegas photo shoot!  The girls looked too cute for words and were soooo excited.  They were little troopers, it was windy as all get out and they still somehow worked out some AWESOME shots!

I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

For purchasing information please visit my facebook site at Prickly Pear or my Etsy shop.

More sneak peek pics!

I am sooo in love with these photos! Dana and her "butler" did a fantastic job! Head pieces are from La Couture Amore, hair bows are by Princess Elise Bowtique!  The pant and top outfit and two of the dresses are made from patterns by Create Kids Couture!

Adollorable Spring Line Sneak Peek

So, as you all I'm sure already know, I'm gearing up for the release of my spring/summer 2012 line......these are the latest additions :)  My model was very willing, but couldn't stand on her own and therefore is propped up on the counter top, hence the shadow.  Each of these dresses will coordinate with a similar girls dress and will fit both 16" and 18" dolls!  I LOVED dressing up like my dolls when I was younger so this just makes me smile!

Oh soooo excited for my models to take pics with their dolls!

Upcycled Mania

So I had been wanting to do some upcycled outfits since......well I can't remember when!  These outfits are sooooo fun to make because no two outfits are ever the same due to the fact that the colors/fabrics are all second hand and therefore I have no idea what I'm able to find until I actually start shopping!  It was so much fun hunting around for the perfect color combos.  I hope you like what I came up with!  Here are some more pics of the outfits......I meant to take some before pics of what the outfits were originally, but alas, I completely forgot :)
