I’m still here and still creating! My repeat customers keep me as busy as I can handle while I’m full-time with kids and never ending renovations, but I hope to ramp back up soon!

I hope you are all staying safe and healthy during this never-ending pandemic!

The hot weather is hopefully coming to an end soon...meaning it’s time for HALLOWEEN!

Contact me ASAP for help with costumes. I don’t have much availability left for scratch costumes. I can help with specific parts and pieces and any embellishment.

ALTERATIONS: I will be able to alter costumes up to Halloween, based on my availability. Keep that in mind as you find your garb!
