Check out how cute this tie is that I altered today! I LOVE the pink! It's for a wedding... adorable!

I thought it would be fun...

...if I posted pics a few orders I have done in the last week so you could all see how darling these altered ties are!

Don't you just LOVE these 1-3 month old ties!!!

Also... I thought it would be fun to show a few of these darling boys in pics of them wearing theirs!!

A 7 year old boy matching his newborn little brother... now this will be DARLING!

LOVE boys all matching!

So I usually don't post the ties from the orders I do but the fabric for these ties are so darn cute I had to let you all see! They are for an awesome family with three boys ages 1, 3, and 5. (I made a longer tie for their 9 year old friend in the same material as well) Aren't they darling! I mailed them out today... can't wait to see a pic of them all in them!

Newborn to 11 month old ties!

I had this crazy idea one night last week when I couldn't sleep so off to my sewing machine I went. When Gavin was first born I really looked for ties for him but only found the kind that are sewn on a shirt (which he proudly wore to church a few times). Why couldn't he have a real tie just like his daddy? So here it is! Teeny tiny neckties for your teeny tiny guys! You can either buy these (more to come soon) for $12 or send me fabric and I can make it custom for you!

Matching Father and Son (Altered)

2009-04-10T14:12:00.000-07:00

Seriously... have you seen anything cuter than this?! This was my 2 favorite men on Easter! This could be your husband and son(s) for Father's Day! (or every Sunday if I had the choice!) I did quite a few of these for this easter... can't wait to hear how it turned out!

*Note: these actual ties are not for sale.. the idea is to show you what you can do just by mailing me one of the ties to alter it down so he can match his father or brother... now go out and find your own cute matching set and send it my way!

Pre-made Handmade Ties: Yep... I made these! You can purchase one of these beauties or choose a fabric of your own!

This Classic Stripped Necktie is perfect for the special occasion or even just to church. It has silky smooth fabric and soft classic colors. It looks great over a blue or white shirt.

We're big BYU fans in our family... so I had to make this tie! Have a team you can't live without?.. send me the fabric!

This fabulous necktie is sure to cause compliments! With the bright bold red and blue colors any little man will be adorable!

This Navy Blue Plaid Necktie will look handsome on your little guy! It looks great by itself or under a sweater! Doesn't ever little boy look great in blue?!

The best thing about these ties... they're machine washable! These little guys are bound to get messy!(I know) Just toss it in the washer on delicate cycle with cold water and lay it out or hang it dry. Iron when dry if needed. No trip to the dry cleaner.

The elastic neck strap is completely adjustable and has an easy to put on snap (but impossible for the little guy to take off)

Have a different material in mind? No problem! I can custom make your tie with almost any material you choose!(just watch if it is machine washable or you might have to have it dry cleaned).

Alter it!

Does you husband have old ties in the closet? (I know he does cuz these boys dads did!) Get more use out of them by altering them down for your son.
(Maybe their grandpa does too... and even better they would probably be made of polyester so you could machine wash them!)

Check these pics out (above).. my sisters cleaned out their husbands ties and now their sons are getting all of these!

Special Occassion

2009-04-10T13:49:00.000-07:00

I just finished these this weekend... 18 ties for a wedding with kids ages 3 months to 12 years.

Can't wait to see the picture of them all wearing it!
