DIY! Make your own throw pillows

I love the big statement such a small thing like a throw pillow can make, and I love personalized décor. With only a few simple steps you can create your own pillows in whatever size, shape, color, pattern, etc. that you like!

Step 1: Fold fabric in half, cut out the shape of your choice.

Step 2: Pin the pieces together so they stay in place while you sew.

Step 3: Sew the pieces of fabric together.

TIP: when you come to a corner, lift the foot of your sewing machine while the needle is coming down into the fabric, and turn it to the new direction you need to sew.

Step 4: Leave an opening on the bottom of the pillow close the center.

Step 5: Flip what you've sewn inside out.

Step 6: Fill your empty pillow with stuffing.

When you've filled the pillow to your satisfaction, hand stitch the hole on the bottom.

AND YOU'RE DONE!

 

Burlap Harlot Show!

My mother and I ventured to the Burlap Harlot Show in Anderson, CA today. It was so much fun! So many creative minds under one roof!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

who's behind that camera

I knew at an early age that this was more than just a hobby. It was something that I felt a strong connection with, something that consumed my mind, something that was so familiar yet always new and exciting with constant surprises. This was my passion. I started with taking pictures of random little pieces of nature, and the lovely country sunsets. I talked my friends into modeling and did some pretty terrible makeup in the early days.. but those moments are still engraved in my mind and they bring a smile to my face every time I relive them by seeing those photos.

I have now grown into my own style, and shoot most any type of portraits or events.
