For The Banker's Suite Hotel in Astoria Oregon Corset



Custom Order Corset with bustle for Trish Bright. She is an AWESOME customer! XOXOX

I found this beautiful flower that I used on the bustle at Whimsical Whites in Kent, Washington. It is the most relaxing and inspiring store run by some really fun sisters, Kathy and Chris. If you need some shopping therapy, this is the place to go. Check out the link on the right of this sight... :D

The Most Powerful Woman in Hollywood




The first official movie star, Mary Pickford, was considered the most powerful, shrewd business woman in Hollywood and also America's Sweetheart. She was paid more than Woodrow Wilson between 1915 and 1917 and she earned 50% of profits from all Mary Pickford films.

Don't Be Scared ~ No Microchip Implants or New World Order Conspiracies here!



Jillian Newman is the gorgeous model that purchased this corset from my etsy shop for her photoshoot with 666 Photography. Nice work Jillian! And Gayla...GaYLA! What a photographer she is! She has a BFA from the University of Texas in Austin and specializes in high concept photoshoots with a retro/vintage feel. She makes most of the costumes, creates and designs the sets and does most of the styling. Genious!

Jillian you look so lovely and thank you again! As for the New World Order and the microchipping... it is at the back door.

Featured in Viva La Moda Online Magazine!



Wow! This is exciting! This corset that I made for an up and coming model, Rachel Cook, (she was just signed on with ElITE!) is featured in the online magazine VivaLaModa in the May 2009 issue on page 72. It turns out the corset was still too big for Rachel so it is still available in my etsy shop. There are quite a few other Etsy artists in the magazine also. My lovely friend and mystery solver, Ivy Long, saw the corset and told me about it. The link is http://www.vivlamoda.co.cc/
It is a great magazine! Thanks again,Ivy!

Come Here, Baby ;)


Such a sultry doll! It cracks me up when I look over and see them all sitting together. She is a little banged up but still irresistable.

Mystery Woman~



This picture I found is marked Lady Jane Grey. But a nice neighbor from Vashon Island told me it isn't Lady Jane. I thought she looked like Marie Antionette and so does she? Anyone know? As soon as I know who it is I can list it in my etsy shop. :) Thanks!!!

Ann and Nancy Wilson



This wasn't planned, I just happened to set them right next to eachother and I thought "They look familiar!" Too funny~ When I was eleven years old, I came across a Heart album and was blown away. Them girls can sing! I am also from Seattle but I never met or saw them in concert. I did meet Howard Leese on the movie set of "Singles" years ago. He was nice and very personable. Alice in Chains was playing on the stage for the movie.

Tattered Lace Dreammaker



I made this with antique and vintage materials and is hand sewn, mostly. :) It makes me want to redecorate my whole house...Well that's not going to happen so I'll sell it on etsy instead. :) I just want to create all the time and I get pissed when I have to go to work...Snap out of it and get back into reality!
