Chocolate Bars and Angels….

What? JULY was the last time that I posted on my blog?!
How can that be?
Do you ever feel that time is passing so quickly that you blink and months have swept by?
My days are filled with cutting petals and making roses. Our business continues to grow and sometimes I feel like I see the women at the fabric and craft store more than my own family LOL We were just contacted by a boutique in New York that is interested in carrying are headbands and accessories!
We have a "hired"our first employee thank you Momala! She saved me hours of work by cutting stacks of satin into circles. Momala, do you mind if your salary is diet pop on demand and an occasional lunch? Mr. tickled pink has requested that I at least keep a pathway so he can wade his way through stacks of lace, rhinestones and pearls! The only time he really complained is when he almost had a small mishap the other day. He had come to sit next to me on the couch to show me something on his phone, how was I suppose to know that my scissors had slipped between the cushions! I told him to count his blessings since they were blade side down! Some how he didn't see the humor in that.
My house has been slightly neglected but it does look pretty covered in assorted roses and mountains of glitter LOL!
When my great Nieces were home for a visit I had them model for us. It usually cost me a handful of candy or part of a chocolate bar. One day when I was getting ready to leave, Mia the three year old, said "Aunt Michele, Bring some more of those headbands tomorrow I will wear them for you if you give me candy!Which was quickly followed by "wait let's make it gum...yes, if you bring gum I will wear your headbands and let you take my picture!" Haaaaaa How could I possibly pass up that offer? The next day I came armed with sugarless gum and got beautiful pictures of the little Angels!
I'm sharing the pictures that make them look so Angelic, what you don't see is the chasing, pleading and mountains of wet wipes to remove the chocolate that goes with our photo shoots!








I love using nature as my inspiration so I couldn't help but slip one of our handmade roses in with fresh ivory ones that I had picked up at the store...


My goal is to get back here more often, especially with the Holidays quickly approaching.
Until we meet again,
Have a tickled pink day!

She's a Peach!


Isn't life peachy?! We think so!
We are loving bringing a lot of the pastel colors into the Boutique for those sunny Spring days ahead!
This little combo is gorgeous in person! Soft fluttering tulle makes up the skirt, it has a floral piece that clips on the front making it a versatile piece to clip on other outfits or by a ponytail!
The matching headband is on a golden slip on band, all are accented with a rhinestone~pearl brooch and the headband has a touch of bird cage veiling!
So gorgeous for a photo shoot or your little twirling ballerina!
Tutu for now....
Back to work for us! We have more exciting, gorgeous things to bring you!

New Items in the Boutique...

Exciting things are happening! When we opened 

http://littlemissmillie.storenvy.com

We weren't sure where it would lead us or how it would go. Well it has been the best thing that we have ever done!
We have had many sales and so many custom orders that we are ecstatic.
The love of roses, lace, rhinestones and pearls has long been in our hearts, to get to do it as a business is a true blessing! They always say find something that you love to do so that it doesn't feel like work! Well I can honestly say that we have accomplished that!
This past month we have partnered with Laurel for a photo shoot. She's an amazing photographer and we are so pleased that we had her snap gorgeous photos of our hard work on some of the cutest Models that you ever did see!
Please check her out at

We are adding new things to the Boutique almost everyday. Remember, our creations are handmade not ordered from a wholesaler. Each petal is cut by hand and pearls, lace and rhinestones are placed and replaced until we are in love with the piece!
If you looked in the Boutique and don't see the color that you need, just message us on Facebook and we would be more than happy to find the perfect material to complete your custom order!
Enjoy these last few weeks of Winter! Spring is right around the corner and that means new colors at http://littlemissmillie.storenvy.com
We'll leave you with some of our newest creations!

Christmas is in the air!

It's Christmas time! The most wonderful time of the year!
We at little Miss Millie's Boutique love the Season. The chill in the air, the Christmas music playing in the background as we create our heirloom quality headbands, cookies filling the house with their sugary sweet smell. We wish we could bottle it up and sprinkle a little out all through the year.
Remember us for your Christmas list. The pictures that you take of others and even the ones that you are included in will last a lifetime and our accessories are timeless.
So fill your days with things that make you happy, put on your comfy clothes, grab a cup of hot chocolate and visit us in the Boutique to complete your list.




Even our little Miss Millie's Boutique's Elves get into the spirit!

Fifi Laroo



And

Waffles Marie!



Happy days as the countdown begins!
