HANDMADE GIFTS, ETSY SHOPS AND BOWS.....OH MY!

Hate is such a strong word.....but let me tell you, I HATE being so far from my family back home. I'm missing out on so much, especially my niece Pia.

I've made stuff before and sent it over to NY a few times but you always take a risk that its not going to get there. I don't know about you but I can't put a value on what I make myself. The thought of it never getting to its destination sucks...alot.

Through keeping in touch over Facebook etc, I can see her grow up (a little) and also see what her gorgeous little wardrobe includes. Ecclectic (just like her momma) but every day, there has to be a bow. I cannot tell you how much I love that! Truth be told, I really wanted a girl when I was pregnant. Don't get me wrong, its not that I don't absolutely adore my gorgeous son.....but the accessories *sigh*....Boys don't have accessories!!! And who doesn't like completing a little outfit with some cuteness?!!?

Here's where Lily Bliss Boutique comes in. I spotted her online and fell in love with all that she has to offer. Just look at all of these gorgeous creations?!!?

The creative wonder behind all of this is a beautiful lady by the name of Kimberly. Let me tell you, you will never meet a more lovely and genuine e-store owner in your life! (Well at least I haven't anyway) I told her all about Pia and sent her a pic and she came up with the cutest little bows I've ever seen.

Not only did this fabulous lady create these gorge pieces but they arrived with Pia in just a few days!!!! (okay I know that Lily Bliss Boutique can't affect the mail but I wouldn't be surprised if a little bit of Kim's brilliance rubbed of on the USPS!! *wink wink*

I cannot recommend Kim and Lily Bliss Boutique enough. I got lost in the wonderful world of Etsy, found my way and have now established a great connection with a pint-sized accessories provider!

Go check her out. Tell her Helen sent you ;-)
