We Go Together.....

Like Peanut Butter and Jelly!


A friend of mine wanted something for her daughter and daughter's best friend that was "outside the box" so......I came up with this! It is drawn, cut, fused and then sewn on by me so it is truly one-of-a-kind!

This would be so cute on a set of twins, siblings or best friends like these are going to be worn by. Can't wait to see some cute pictures! You know they're gonna get some fun comments while wearing these!

Boys First Birthday T-Shirt




Now, you KNOW I love this argyle print! It looks SO cute on Colin's first birthday shirt - and I love that font - it's called Leftovers! Happy Birthday to Colin in Arkansas!

New Fabric! This one's for the BOYS!


WOW! These boys' first birthday shirts have gotten SO popular that I thought I better get a few more choices of fabric for them! Aren't these awesome? Remember to check my other "fabric choice" blog entries to see even more!

CONTEST! Rock the Cradle


For those that ROCK THE CRADLE, we salute you!

Jayme Austin Photography along with Trucks & Tutus Boutique is running a Mother's Day contest. Just leave a comment on the "Rock the Cradle" post with your best mommy tidbit (the crazy conceptions, why you named your child that awesome name, the insane place you gave birth, a horrifying mishap of mommyhood, a tender memory ... you know what we're looking for) by Sunday, May 3. Two winners will be chosen and announced via blog on Mother's Day (Sunday May 10). One lucky momma (from the Baton Rouge area) will win a photo sitting and print package from Jayme Austin Photography, while the other lucky momma (no location restrictions on this one) will win a gift certificate to Trucks & Tutus Boutique! (all comments will be considered for both prizes, so leave yours on either blog...or both!)

Personalized sippy and adult cups - inside paper choices

I just got back from the sewing store and also got an order in the mail of the kiwi paper - the special paper for the inside of the adult and kid cups - check out all these fun choices! There about a jillion more but I figure at $1.50 a pop, this was enough to start with! So, let me know when you're ready to order, which top color and paper and threadcolor you'd like.....and as usual, if you don't see it here....I can get it for you! :)

NEW - personalized sippies!

OOOOOHHHHH - I have been waiting for these to arrive and they're HERE! I can't wait to not only make my own two kids some of these, but YOURS, too!

I have both the straw and spout cups = both are 10oz insulated cups and can be personalized in any way you like! You can even get more than one insert to change it up a bit! The cups are $15 and extra inserts are $5.

The straw cups come in these colors: green, blue, red, purple, teal and pink.The spout cups come in these colors: teal, blue and red.I only have a limited number of each so order fast - these are super hard to find and aren't cheap! But, I just had to have them!

Here is an example of some insert ideas........ And a few cup examples:



Boys First Birthday Shirts

These boys birthday shirts are getting popular! People are now finding me on their google searches - HOW EXCITING! It is so hard to find boys birthday stuff that isn't fru-fru - these are just perfect!
This font pulled a bit - I won't be using that one again! But, I LOVE the colors this Mommy picked out to match Colton's invites she made!

Happy First Birthday guys!

Custom Embroidery Orders

Here is Camryn's Easter dress - I added a big monogram - she looked so sweet in it!
LOVE this funky font!

My neighbor's little girl's Easter dress needed a little something so I added a sweet little H:
Here is an appliqued and embroidered sleep shirt - fun and funky...and comfy!
Another little monogram I did - LOVE this Kellys Kids Dress!

Two Easter basket liners - they turned out cute and I bet looked AWESOME in the baskets on Easter morning!

Beverage Tumblers

I am in love with these glasses - number 1 because they're so cute and number 2 because I am the kind of person who ALWAYS has to have something to drink.....and number 3 - they have a spill-proof sliding cover so my one and two year ond can't dump it! :)
They are super-sturdy - not the cheap-y kind! The are also insulated so they keep hot things hot and cold things cold. The paper inside is special paper called Kiwi paper and is for embroidery machines - it comes in about a bazillion different designs so you just tell me what colors you like and I'll get on it! These aren't cheap to make - the mug and paper costs $8 so I am selling them for $16.......order now!


Monogrammed Bloomers and Diaper Covers

I now have eyelet-lace-trimmed bloomers! I can do anything on the cute-little-booty area - a name, monogram, butterflies......anything!
Here is a custom outfit I did for a friend of mine - she supplied the cute little swing-top and I made the bloomers to match the embroidery I did on the top. LOVE IT! I hear it was a big hit at her sister's baby shower this past weekend!
And here are some simple bloomers - EVERY baby and little girl needs a cute little diaper cover this summer!
Here is the front. I have them in 0-6 months, 6-12, 12-18, 18-24 and 2T-3T.......order now - they'll go fast!

Custom Adult and Children's Bags

I just LOVE these bright bags for adults and especially kids! They come in tons of colors and are around a foot wide and 8 inches deep. Perfect for a picnic lunch, overnight bag, small toy bag.......even a cute gift bag instead of one of those paper bags! Any font and thread color can be done.......

These are extra cute - thick robbon is sewn around the top and a double-layer bow is added for a special touch!
This is a larger blue-jean bag. How great is this one to throw your magazines in and hit the road for a road trip......or for a cute pool bag....or kids' toy bag.......or whatever! This one has a large monogram and is trimmed in gathered gros-grain pola-dotted ribbon and is around 2 ffet tall and 14 inches or so wide. They are completely customizeable - whatever you can think of, I can do!


Since most of my items are embroidery and applique, I suggest either handwashing or washing inside out on the gentle cycle and then laying flat to dry - warm iron with a cloth over the item on LOW if needed!

Sippy cups and tumblers CAN be washed in the dishwasher but TAKE OUT the embroidered fabric/paper FIRST!
