The tablecloth that dreamed it was a skirt.

WELL! It's been too, too long since my last post. I'm really going to try harder to make them a weekly affair. But between all the skirts and now the peacock feather goodies and the fact that time management just isn't my strong suit.....I suppose this is what interns are for. I know this sweaty city is just teaming with wide-eyed 20-somethings just dying for a chance to boost Teablossoms sales and show off their newly acquired webmarketing skills. If only I can find the time to write that craigslist ad.... Here are three skirts that I made from two vintage tablecloths that my mom brought from Colorado last month and I'm happy to say that 2 of the 3 have already sold! This first skirt was made from one tablecloth and Lauren in Austin, Texas said it was keeping her cool and that it was the best-fitting skirt she owned in 10 years. Go me! Lindsay in Denver, CO bought the skirt with the green sash. I really like all these skirts and might just keep the one with the white sash (unless you fancy it of course). I cut them as your standard circle wrap skirt but then included and cute little ruffle piece at the top which I'm quite fond of. I think that ruffle will definitely become part of the signature Teablossoms look.

I would also just like to take this moment to offer a shout out to my fiance' in taking these pictures. These pictures were taken using some new, fancy and HUGE lenses that he bought for his videographing. I don't normally brag about his lense size online like this but just look at the depth of field in this pics. It just makes such a difference.
