Princess Mini Tink




Madi simply LOVED her Minnie Mouse Tinkerbell Tutu... Can you tell by the look on her face and "pose". Of course, the Elmo candy bucket was Daddy's idea. I tried to ignore the "non-matching" factor, since Madi didn't seem to mind. Of course, the Halloween Costume has a dual purpose - with Tutu a costume, without - a fabulous embroidered shirt and matching pants. I just LOVE multi-purpose clothing!!

Monogrammed Onesie - V for Victoria


A chocolate monogrammed onesie for a precious baby girl... So, the embroidered "V" was created in Pink with the "lace" capital letter "V" with her name, "Victoria", in a smaller lavender color. Absolutely Girly!!! I will start listing the Onesie's soon via www.aprilmichelledesigns.com. That is - once I count my inventory of colors. I just LOVE the brown!!!

The beginning price for the embroidered onesies and t-shirts will be $20.00 for a simple design - similar to the one here. Applique and more complex designs will vary.

STAY TUNED.. we will soon add Ribbon Onesies!!!

Brother and Sister Embroidery T's



I love this cute embroidered design. I made this Lightening McQueen Yellow Racing Car T-Shirt, as an embroidered gift for the son of Madi's preschool teacher. Racing McQueen is her little boy's favorite character - he just loves cars! Let's get ready to race!!!

Mini-Totes.. Too Precious!

I am loving the new Mini-Totes. I ordered just a handful to test them out and was surprised that I actually 'like' them! They will be listed for sale at $22.00 for monogrammed initial or $25.00 for monogrammed name. Colors currently available: light pink, zebra, brown, navy and black.

These two cute totes were created for a friend with the LSU theme. The mini-market totes are great for little ones who like to carry around their crayons, toys, and other stuff. Easy size for the college aged to carry their bath/shower items. I am giving one away to a friend as a spa birthday gift - once finished, I'll add a photo.. The cute tote will have her name embroidered on the side and filled with lotions, spa gels, monogrammed towel wrap and anything else I can find.

Hope you all love them as much as I do. :)

This is a lightweight tote that folds flat for quick storage. It has aluminum frame with a soft foam padded handle. The approximate size is 11” x 9” x 6.5”

Disney Inspired

Summer is almost over and school is about to begin.... but I just can not put down this TOO CUTE Ribbon! I have played around with the various styles for the printed ribbons. And I am really liking the layered look. The printed ribbons look a bit bare when styled as single bows. Who knows - maybe I"ll start making the big layered bows again, but for now - This Layered Double Ruffle Bow and the Layered Boutique Bow are my fun.
