Star Quilt Clips

Sunday, June 3, 2012

Did you know that my star quilt clips can be painted in any color?

I can also paint them in contrasting colors or even add stitches or distress them to better coordinate with your child's bedding set.

A happy mom sent me this photo of my stars with her son's all-star quilt. These are a lipstick red and match perfectly with the bedding, bringing out the red accents for his room.

Stars coordinate with many different bedding themes, including celestial, sports, transportation, teddy bear, and more.

I handpaint each one to your specification, but I am also happy to send you a set unfinished so that you can paint it yourself.

Visit my website at www.littleelephantcompany.com to order a set for yourself today!

Jungle Jill Quilt Clips

Wednesday, May 2, 2012

The jungle and safari animal theme is one of the most popular themes for nurseries, and there are many different style twists to the theme. Jungle Jill by Carter's is a feminine twist, incorporating popular shades of pink as well as some girly flowers in the precious animals.

For this set, I had the monkey, elephant, and zebra all laser cut. The elephant started with a soft apple green body and a basil green ear. I then carefully handpainted the white flowers, dotting the centers with bubblegum pink.

The zebra is a white with fun bubblegum pink stripes and fuschia accents. And lastly is the monkey in iron oxide brown with a country twill face. I finished her details with a cream and country twill striped belly, bubblegum pink on her ears and feet, and a bubblegum and fushia flower.

Would you like your own set? These adorable jungle animals are on my website individually so you can create the set that best suites your tastes! Here they are:
Note that the Jungle Jill animals can also be used for wall letters, a growth chart, curtain holdbacks, a hair barrette holder, a name sign, and more. If you have any questions, please be sure to contact me today!

Vintage Inspired Airplane Quilt Clips

Wednesday, April 18, 2012

Transportation themes are popular for boys, right behind jungle and sports themes. And these vintage inspired airplanes are a beautiful touch to a nursery.

These airplanes fly straight up when hung, as if they are lifting the quilt up, up, and away!

For the red airplane, I started with my newest shade, tomato red. I love the richness of it. I then handpainted the propeller, window, and stripes in white.

The blue airplane is a deep navy blue. The wings are chambray blue, a pale blue with a gray base. I then cut out a star to trace onto the wings and painted those white. (I think next time I will have some stars laser cut to be layered onto the wings.) The propeller is a nice dark yellow, and the window is white.

Would you like your own set of vintage inspired airplanes? I would be happy to create a set for you as quilt clips, wall hangings, curtain holdbacks, wall letters, a growth chart, name sign...nearly anything.

PBK Jackson Whale Quilt Clips

Monday, January 16, 2012

One of my favorite bedding companies, Pottery Barn Kids has some of the cutest sets. But not only are they so very adorable, they are high quality sets that last through several children.

It is not uncommon for someone to purchase a retured PBK bedding set second hand and then ask me to make a set of quilt clips to go with it. And last week, I found out that my PBK Baby Boats quilt clips went along for the ride to the second owner (the new mom was looking for instructions on how to use the quilt clips).

I think the PBK Jackson bedding sets will be another one of the sets that will see many baby rooms for sure. A soothing light blue with navy and basil green accents, Jackson is a fun pattern for little boys.

So my Jackson whales are custom laser cut to match the whale shape from the bedding itself. I paint them a base navy coat, and then I add in the dots...lots and lost of dots. I use the tip of a screw to put on all those itsy bitsy dots, if that helps with the visualization!

Then the fin is a nice lipstick red, with a white eye and stitched mouth. Cute, cute!

If you would like your own set of Jackson whales, head over to my website, as I have them listed there and ready for you!
