New Designs on The Pink Porch

I have put some new designs up on The Pink Porch.  There are several everyday pendants and I plan on finishing up some holiday designs soon.  On Friday, November 28th, I will be participating in a giveaway at The Shabby Chic Cottage.  Check back here on Friday the 28th to get the details on how you can participate in the Christmas Carnival giveaway. 

This "Child of the King" pendant will be the item that I have donated for the giveaway.  Below are some more of the new designs.  Each one of my designs are unique and a one-of-a-kind as they are made using vintage buttons, hand colored papers, glass beads etc. ensuring no two are exactly the alike.  If you see something that you love, don't miss out, go on over to The Pink Porch and place your order. 
   

Child of The King Pendant

This weekend I had a great time in my studio creating some fun new things for The Pink Porch.  Here is one of the new designs I have come up with.  I had fun making them all different colors and using the new scalloped soldering tape that I bought.  There is also a fun little jewel on the outside of the glass just on top of the crown.  Because every princess needs a jewel.  You can purchase them through The Pink Porch or just contact me by email and I will be more then happy to send one your way or maybe two so that you can pass one on to a friend.  Hope you have a "royal" day!!!! 

Sales Down Under

Okay, so you can now call me an "international" business woman.  I have made my first ever international sale.  I sold a table runner to a gal in Australia through The Pink Porch etsy shop.  I have made quite a few sales through my shop but they have always been to people here locally so they did not have to purchase on-line but from me directly.  For my first sale to be from across the world, is so exciting for me.  I have been working on some new items for The Pink Porch and will post them soon so check back often.  That comes from an "international" business woman, ha, ha.  Have a great day!!!!!!

Newest Pink Porch Designs

Over at Twice Remembered they are doing a make it Monday.  This is the projects that I have entered.  

These are some of The Pink Porch's newest designs.  I have really enjoyed not only designing new pendants and soldered charms.  But I am also learning more and more about Photoshop and how to manipulate pictures and designs to work for my uses.  I am starting to feel very technically creativity.  I have never thought of myself as very technical but I am enjoying this new skill and the endless avenues for creativity. Each of these designs are custom and made with love and care.  If you want to order something for a special someone or you just need something a little special for yourself, just leave a comment here and I will get back with you.

  

Great Baby Gifts for Mom

This week I have been busy making up some baby gifts for the new Mommies that I know.  Although the baby is the one that needs the new things, Mommy also needs a pick me up as well.  Here is one of the custom pendants made by The Pink Porch.  Hoping this new  Mommy likes her new fashion accessory.  

Cute Custom Soldered Charms

This week I received my first custom order for The Pink Porch.  Okay, it was one of my closest friends who placed the order, but she still needed some gifts for Teacher Appreciation week and thought of the cute soldered charms that I make and had me make three of them to give away.  There are some lucky gals at Prairie Creek Elementary School getting a great gift from a rock star parent this week.  You too can can be an owner of one of these great charms if you go to The Pink Porch and place an order or email me and you can get something custom for that special someone.
