TEXTURES

I wanted to say thank you to everyone who participated in the Newborn Peanut Wrap group buy last week. I'm pleased to announce that Joy Harmon of Wildflowers Photography was the lucky entry in the Peanut giveaway. Congratulations Joy!

Two batches went out already and there are two more scheduled for next week. Here is a photo of yesterday's shipment:


I also wanted to give you a little taste of what's brewing at Mamique Designs. When I'm working on your orders my mind seldom stays idle. As you may have noticed, the last couple of months have been creatively prolific and there is so much more in store.


I am very excited to launch my TEXTURES line in the next few weeks. As a budding newborn photographer, I am always on the lookout for interesting fibres and textures to best showcase the tiny individual being photographed. I am not kidding when I say I have a closet full of blankets, throws, wraps and other items to be used as backdrops/props during my sessions. The problem I found, however, is that buying such items at big box stores means half of the other photographers have the same ones as me.

TEXTURES, I hope, will offer you some truly unique pieces. The goal is to create limited edition items using various fibres, stitching, colors and shapes. You already know that different yarns and colors will create beautiful props, but you also know how quickly these can be recreated by others making what you thought was a one of a kind item, now one of many. Creative stitching will, in my view, add another dimention to the world of knit/crochet photography props.

Don't worry, the original designs you've been saving for will still be around, this is just an addition to the Mamique Designs family of designs ;-)
