PBK Spring Butterfly in Pink - Custom 9 inch Letters

Tuesday, April 7, 2009

As I promised, here are the letters in the Pottery Barn Kids "Spring Butterfly" in pink theme!

CATHY is done in the bubblegum pink to really "pop" off her bedroom wall. Accenting the T and the Y are pale pink stitches around the edges.

Other colors I used in the set are dark pink, dark yellow, light yellow, meadow green, and white. The ribbon is vertical stripes of green, pink, white, and a bit of brown.

Cherry Blossom by Kidsline

Saturday, March 21, 2009

The Cherry Blossom bedding is one of my absolute favorite patterns. As a kid, I used to think it was a faux paus to put pink and red together, and now I love to do it all the time!

For this set, I handpainted the backgrounds of the lightswitch plate and the 9 inch letters in a very pale pink. The blossoms are done in red, dark pink, and white, with accents of pale pink and light pink. Other colors include burnt umber, sage green, and light green.

Are you absolutely in love the Cherry Blossom design, too? I would be happy to handpaint beautiful artwork for your little girl's room. Please email me at info@littleelephantcompany.com with your desired items, and I will send over an estimate.


Do you have another theme in the room? Let me know! Tyann

***NEW ITEM*** - Diaper Stacker Hanger

Friday, February 20, 2009

I am so excited about this brand new item that I am now making. It began as a request from a friend, and I have made the first one to go into a gift basket for my neighbor:

Diaper Stacker Hanger

Why do you need one of these to complete your nursery decor? Not only are they absolutely adorable, but a very functional piece of wall decor.

With a thick and sturdy knob, you simply place your diaper stacker's top over the knob and let it hang. The knob is very subtle and does not protrude like a long peg.

The plaque is hung by either a ribbon (stapled for security) or a sawtooth hanger (your choice).

I handpaint the plaque in your choice of colors. This one is done in pale orange, iron oxide brown, and regular orange. I added the little polka dots in the corners to draw in the color and design from the cute giraffe.

You can choose any design for the Diaper Stacker Hanger that will coordinate with your nursery's theme. I can also do a custom design for you!

It may be a while before I get these added to my shopping cart, but in the meantime, contact me to order yours today. Depending upon the details, number of colors, and the center design, they will be between $14.99 and $39.99 (the above giraffe one in 3 colors would be $22.99).

Here is the completed gift basket with 3 quilt clips, diaper stacker hanger, nite lite, and Tag Blankie:

Pottery Barn Kids "Spring Butterfly" in Pink

Wednesday, February 11, 2009

Another Pottery Barn Kids set! The butterflies and daisy turned out just so cute and look perfect with the quilt.

The daisy is a dark pink with pale pink and dark yellow accents. The leaf is in meadow green with leaf green accents.

The first butterfly is dark yellow, pale yellow, white, dark pink, and meadow green. The second butterfly is dark pink, bubblegum pink, pale pink, pale yellow, and meadow green.


This set would be $29.99 if you would like one for yourself. I would be happy to change up the color combinations as well - just contact me!

I am now working on a set of wall letters in this theme, so look for them at the end of March or the beginning of April!

"Teddy Trucks" by Sumersault

Wednesday, February 4, 2009

This little teddy bear is so adorable! I just want to poke his little tummy. : )

Little teddy here is created to go with the Teddy Trucks bedding by Sumersault. He is an antique white with a vintage white (cream) belly. His details are done in nutmeg brown.

It's difficult to judge colors just from pictures on a computer screen, and I usually do a pretty good job. I am thrilled that teddy's colors are "right on." This teddy bear quilt clips is $7.99 per clip and is available by special order only at this time.


It's amazing what a little quilt clip adds to a nursery's decor. You can custom order quilt clips and almost any other nursery decor item in my custom designs to coordinate with your theme. Contact me today!

Quilt Clips for Pottery Barn Kids "Abby"

Sunday, January 25, 2009


I think Pottery Barn Kids must be one of my top 3 favorites in baby bedding lines. Their designs are rich and colorful and always have some whimsy sewn in.

This set of daisies I created to coordinate with the PBK "Abby" bedding. I used bright red, sage green, pale yellow, light pink, and white colors. Notice the "stitching" details on each of the flowers - a zig zag, a horizontal, and a vertical. I then contrasted the details on the leaves to compliment the petals. What also makes my quilt clips stand out, is that they are handpainted in custom colors and layered to make them "pop" when you hang your quilt.

Would you like a set of your own daisy quilt clips in the PBK "Abby" design? Just email me, and I would be happy to send you a custom invoice for your order. Don't forget that all of my designs come in practically all of my products - 9 inch wall letters, curtain holdbacks, growth charts, name signs, hair barrette holders...

Quilt clips are the perfect final touch to your child's bedroom. They add artwork to the room and keep the quilt safely out of the baby's bed.
