Bridal Headband Collection 2013 by Simplee Luxx on Etsy

As I previously stated in my other posts, we are working on expanding our bridal hair accessory collection. So far its been a real joy to continually challenge myself as an artist and explore different design concepts. Here's a sneak peak of our embellished headbands for our Bridal Collection in 2013.

The first picture is of a rhinestone lace embellished headband that captures bohemian styled accessories. It is a romance style for free spirited brides. The second is a leaf headband for teens that has a sweet and relaxed style. At the current moment, I am working on more intricate designs and will post them in the coming weeks due to the significant labor each one takes. Can't wait to share them with our lovely brides !

Spring 2013 Collection

These two wrap style headbands are part of our Spring 2013 collections inspired by the vivid colors found in a spring flower garden.  This is a new and refreshing way to incorporate boho pieces in your every day attire without being to overly trendy.https://www.etsy.com/listing/126727953/boho-headband-floral-print-headband

My B- Day and Ryan Started the fire

Today was my B-day. As I always do, I decided to take a picture of the b-day cake. Forgive me for the dark photos, I took them late at night. There is nothing like a girly birthday : )

I'm still searching for some diy photo studio tutorials. So, here a couple that seem reasonable. Lately, I'm been using a large white sheet on a clothesline but have yet to master the lighting. Hopely, one these tutorials work for me or for you.

The blog : Please excuse me while I clean my lens has a DIY Garage Studio for $33. Sounds really affordable compared to the $200 to $300 or more studios sold online. 

Here's another idea from flicker's Johnathan: DIY Home Portrait Studio . I could not show a photo here since it's copyright protected so I just linked it instead.

It's a perfect example on how to setup the lighting and umbrellas. It seems that depending your space and equipment you may have to adjust the lighting. Take a full body picture of a small children appears to require less space unlike a adult which you will need more background space. Now, for photos of just your face not as much. I'll give these a try during the weekend and hopefully I don't start a fire : ) That would be epic ! The tv show : The Office comes to mind. Specifically, the episode where the new intern Ryan stared a fire in the office with the micowave and the office had to evacuate the building.  His co-worker, Dwight kept singing Ryan started the fire which was hilarious. 

Behind the scenes of our spring bridal collection 2013

After a year of designing hair accessories for Simplee Luxx on Etsy, I wanted to create something special. I decided to create bridal accessories and sparkly pieces after a some customers wore our accessories for their weddings, special occasions or as photo props.  After three months, I have finally created bridal quality items and even bridal silk flowers. The story behind the silk flowers was epic. Those flowers themselves have cost me blood, sweat, and tears : ) Not entirely,  just a couple of burns and bandages but completely worth it ! In the upcoming months, I'll be creating more original pieces and will post pics to this blog. It has been a while since I last blogged.

The best gift of all

Monday was my b-day ! Which brings to this blog post. When we were small birthdays and holidays used to be about the gifts however as you grow older our mindsets change. We grow wiser and realize that what matters the most is someone's time. My sister gave the best gift of all time. Normally she is working late juggling between her full time job and a another part time job. However, she requested to the evening off. The best gift off all apart of finding in the mail my diploma on my birthday. Four and half years of late nights, anxiety,  and hard work finally paid off.  My sister surprised me with a 6 1/2 pound cake filled with candles. 6 1/2 pounds ! Insane ! Here's the picture of the enormous cake. It was so beautiful I had to post the picture.
