A union made in heaven

A client recently contacted I Luv U Tutu Much Boutique and sent us beautiful photos of her daughter modeling our lovely outfit.

Teen appeal

Its hard to believe that i have been running 2 full time jobs as well as raising 5 children between the ages of 19, 18, 16, 6 , 1 yrs. old.
I credit it all to my husband Bobby of 20 yrs. who has stood through me by thick and thin and has always supported me in my adventures of children, toys, sewing materials, and wild and crazy hair brain ideas that come to me at 3 am. Because of these ideas i can dream up amazing designs i want to share with you like our new teen lines :)

Back again

Its been awhile since my last post but a lot has changed for me this past year. I quit my in home daycare of 14 years to peruse my dream of becoming a fashion designer / creative genius. lol
Just in the nick of time to receive a call that a precious little 4 week old baby needed a loving home and family. To my surprise the little bundle of joy became our 2nd adopted child. Now we have expanded our home & our heart and our daughter now has her biological sibling to grow with. So please forgive me if i am not up to par on my blogging skills. This mother of 5 will try her best to blog and all i can say is... I'm BACK :)

Busy Busy Busy as Spring Weddings are in the Air.

It's been a while since my last blog, and I have been extremely busy thanks to all my wonderful clients, and the start of this years wedding season. I have been working on several new flower girl tutu wedding dresses and have a wide list of orders thanks to my website.I must say that I love this time of year.Once thought only as ballet dress wear, tutus have become very popular for brides to be as tutu's are no longer for just for dress up, or play time fun. Sweet frilly pink tutus are now being used by many women who wish to have a fantasy dream wedding with a unique and playful twist that is sure to stand out in the crowd. I am very honored to be asked by many to create their fantasy dream dress or tutu skirt.

What should we call this one?

My newest listing in my shop is a beautiful bright blue tutu skirt that I have embellished with hot pink satin ribbon. I guess you can say I'm a fan of bright colors. I love how vibrant, and fun my tutu creations are coming about. One problem that I am having is coming up with naming these wonderful creations. What should we call this one? Any takers?

Organization Needs Your Help!

Do you have a craft? Would your shop be willing to help out a needy organization?Would you be willing to donate your creations to a worthy cause? We are helping Alicia Fastman from Widener University School of Law. Alicia is a Silent Auction Co-Chair of the Public Interest Law Alliance (PILA). Each Spring they hold a silent auction to raise money for student fellowships. These fellowships are awarded to students who will work for public interest, non-profit, and government organizations and agencies this upcoming summer without being paid for their efforts. Public interest lawyers advocate for populations like victims of domestic violence, and the homeless. They are needing items donated to be auctioned off. If you would like more information on how you can help Alicia, and her organization please email her at:

Neon Colored Tutu

I came across a beautiful Lime Green tulle bolt, and just had to purchase it! Who wouldn't want a neon colored tutu? I know it's not the traditional color for ballet dancers or little ballerinas but who would be able to resist this funky cool new look. Not I! Here it is. Can you think of any color combos that would look great with this number? I decided to try it with white satin ribbon. I definitely think hot pink will be next.

Best Friends Till the end

What exactly could two best friends of 12 years possibly be doing at 4am in the morning when they both have jobs that start at 7:30 am? We'll sewing of course. Were crazy I'll admit but when my friend needs me I'll always be there. Janie came over at 12:00 noon Sunday with the bright idea that we needed to make her triplets Disney princess dresses for the annual family vacation. Sounds simple right? NOT! Janie who I love to death tells me she needs my help the day before she leaves. Oh My Gosh ! Was my first reaction. Bloody H*** was my next. Thank god I have an assistant at work. Here's the outcome.

What to do What to do!

Here's my dilemma for the month of January. I have 5 birthday party's 2 of which I have to throw, and 1 anniversary that i totally forgot. My best friend has a birthday, and so do her triplet's, and she is counting on me for help, my 2 kids want something fun, my nephew just wants money. So what exactly should a mom of 4 plus kids, a teacher,and a boutique owner supposed to do if you have a 14 year old boy and it's his birthday? Let's see how can I save money and make it all happen with out a hitch! I can't exactly make tutus or can I? Hubby and son say, "I don't think so." hehehe No I guess that ideas out of the question DARN! I know, I know lets go BOWLING!!!!

Blah Blah Blah Blog

It's been quite a while as I haven't had the time nor the desire to blog. Who knew blogging would be such a hard task at hand. Creativity flows from my mind and transforms in to precious work of art when I am creating girly things so how come it's so hard for me to sit down and put my thoughts on the computer? Is blogging jibberish ramblings of a woman going crazy at 12:39 am? I think so...... Who in their right mind would be willing to do this at this hour? Ummmmmmmmm Me of Course. So here it goes the update.

A Day at the Beach

Wow ! Absolutely Breathtaking ....This was such an amazing day at the beach as we were fitting in tutu portraits on a vacation weekend. My boys were back at the hotel gearing up for a day of fun and shopping. We drove down to the beach once again to take pictures of Keeley modeling my newest of creations the Strawberries and Champagne Petal Filled Tutu Skirt. What a perfectly lovely tutu for the scenery . It was so much fun watching the waves go in and out. These tutus are truly amazing for portrait work. Keeley had such fun at the beach. I loved seeing her dance, and twirl in the sand. She eventually found a stick and was dragging it behind her. I thank god for this perfect little girl he has brought in to our family's life. She is the reason for my inspiration I just love her too too much.

What fun it is to have a contest! So we decided to raffle off a couple of tutu dresses in the days that followed our arrival at the artisans guild. In order to win the raffled off Tutu Dresses patrons would need to contribute $2.00 towards the raffle. Tickets with the winners information were called on late Sunday afternoon, to come pick up their items. Our beautiful tutu dresses were specially made with layers upon layers of soft american made tulle that would be fit for a princess. Everyone was equally impressed with the quality of new items we had on hand,and several new custom orders were placed.

Bibs & Burpies

With Designers in mind like Amy Butler, Michael Miller, & Robert Kauffman your sure to make incredible artwork out of their fabric. We handmade, and designed our newest addition of bibs and burpcloths adding the extra finishing touches of chenille & terrycloth to the back for a complete moisture barrier.Baby products are always fun to design and sew and we have had a tremendous amount of buyers asking for new products so we decided to try our hand on a few new creations. Consumers were eager to mix and match our bib and burp sets they especially enjoyed our new baby pails that are great for gift giving on birthdays, baby showers, or even stocking stuffers.

Just a Few Creations

Trying our hand at a few ,new ideas besides our signature series of Tutus & Tutu dresses we decided to break the mold and make embellished onesies, pillowcase dresses, baby blankets and doggie tutus in which by the way we sold out of instantly. Go figure! Alissa had been on my case for the past year trying to break down my guard so that I would cave in to her demands of apparel for little pooches. I just resisted with all my might. I absolutely could not, would not make tutus for animals! Or so I thought. Who would of thought that a little tulle attatched to some elastic would make the world go round for dog lovers. People all over town were asking us constantly to make these precious commodities for their little ones. With much hesitation I gave in to their demands and they were such a big hit. Here are a few pics of our sweet and lovely new creations.
