Newborn Photography Prop Bed

As I mentioned in my last post, my husband and I (well, mostly my hubby!) were working on some wood furniture photography props to add to my Etsy shop. He's finished the first little prop bed and I really wanted to blog about it and show everyone just how adorable it is!

Newborn Baby Photography Prop or Doll Bed
Unfinished.

It is superior in quality. Fully handcrafted by my husband (a Millwork specialist of 7 years) out of the finest select Pine. The entire bed is built seamless. There are no nail holes and no hardware showing, which is exceptional for photographers. This means no trying to hide or clone them out of your photos! The bed weighs under 10lbs. making it portable and very easy to transport if necessary. It is built extremely sturdy and has been tested to withstand up to 50lbs. making it versatile as it could be used for those tiny sleeping newborns as well as much older sitting toddlers! You won't find another like it.

 (here it is shown with my round cuddle blanket photo prop! prop is not included.)

I'm so proud of my hubby! He's truly amazing at what he does & I'm so excited to be able to offer his props! I currently have this unfinished, fully assembled bed ready to ship in my Etsy shop! We will have a painted version of this bed listed in the next day or two. We also have another version coming soon. The next style has a low foot board which is perfect for sitting infants and toddlers!

NEW Photography Prop / Satin Flower Headband

Two stunning handcrafted satin flowers - one Baby Pink and one White - were placed over a gorgeous Honeysuckle tulle onto a 3/8" wide White elastic headband. Each piece of satin was hand cut, heat singed, and hand sewn with a Pearl bead center to form a perfect - yet 'one of a kind' flower.

Available for purchase in my Etsy shop!

Custom photography props: Featured in an Etsy Treasury!

I remembered today about this really awesome treasury widget you can get from CraftCult.com. I haven't checked it out in a while. I've been featured in 18 treasuries since opening up shop! Most of them are recent. So add that to my list of achievements!

Anyway, I was so excited to see that I've been featured in yet another treasury -and it's all about PINK! They featured my Owl ear flap beanie... one of my favorites :)

So, it's been a while. I've neglected you all for far too long. I just wish I had more time to keep up with everything. I've been very busy focusing all of my energy on my shop, but I'm going to try to get back into the swing of blogging! I want to, I really do.

Let's see. Here's an update! It's been just over a year and four months since I've opened up my Etsy shop and I've hit and surpassed 500 sales (566 -to be exact)! I have 263 shop hearts and I'm very close to 20,000 page views! I'm pretty happy with that, if I do say so myself!

I'm currently working on an expansion. I LOVE making hats but I am also going to be carrying those adorable satin and organza flower clips & headbands (another very popular photography prop) and my husband will join me in making really fabulous furniture photography props. Our aim will be mostly newborn and toddler photographers. We will start a line of beds, benches, boxes and all that jazz! I am incredibly excited to be expanding after only a little over a year! It's so exciting :) You can expect to begin to see some new items within the week. I want to have everything up and running by the end of this month.

In other exciting news, we may be relocating soon. Heading South! I'm not going to jinx it by talking about it, but my husband is in the process of putting in for a transfer and hopefully by summer's end you'll be hearing more!

A new addition to my shop.

I thought It might be nice to let everyone see a small glimpse into the creation of one of my newest items.

This creation all started when I bought this awesome hand spun Tutti Fruitti yarn from Lambsears on Etsy. It's super bright & colorful -- the perfect touch for a Newborn photo prop :)






It arrived super quick. I was so excited to start working with it that I forgot to document the entire process... but hey atleast I have this much to show. Next time, I plan on doing this from start to finish.




and this big beautiful ball of yarn ...... turned into a gorgeous - rainbow of color!

Newborn 0-3 month Cocoon & Beanie Hat photography prop set. Cocoon & Hat have matching scalloped 'fan' edging & adorable wooden flower buttons -both are removable- and simply tied on with a bow of hand spun yarn. What a perfect pair. Just looking at these colors makes me wish I had a little baby & a camera! This set is sure to make Baby's first photos - just perfect!
