Sunflower T-Shirt and Legging Outfit

  

If you like sunflowers then you will love the fashionable legging outfit ideas that are featured here.

Know that I grow sunflowers and think that the flower is sensational.  A rather large flower that blooms on top of a very tall stem.  The flower petals appear to be looking up at the sun and when the sunflower booms it brightens my entire yard and garden. 

So, it’s my love for this beautiful flower that inspired me to create sunflower fashion for her.  I created darling fashion t-shirts, leggings, and coordinating accessories at my Zazzle store.  Here is a fashion set that features a darling capri legging outfit.

 

Customers have told me that they love to wear sunflower-printed clothing because this sunny yellow flower is associated with positivity, happiness, luck and good energy, and strong friendships.

So, if you want to have a bright and sunny day then plan to wear an outfit that has a sunflower print.

Cheerful Sunflower Ceramic Coffee Mugs

  

Add a cheerful ambiance to the décor of your kitchen with yellow sunflower-designed coffee mugs.  

I grow sunflowers and love their bright yellow flower petals, and tall green stems that allow the flower to look up and follow the sun.  If you are like me and love sunflowers then you will like these ceramic coffee mugs.  I created all of them from watercolor illustrations, photographs, and graphics.

When you decorate your kitchen with sunflower coffee mugs you feel happy due to the uplifting yellow color.  This photograph features sunflower ceramic Latte mugs.  I bought these mugs and really like the shape, and the pretty floral print.  I use them in late summer and during the fall season.

Mugs are thoughtful housewarming, birthday, and bridal shower gifts.

Buy a sunflower ceramic mug for yourself or buy a set and give it as a gift to that special someone.  

Here are a few of my favorite sunflower ceramic coffee mug designs.

Personalized Dog Art Collars / Leashes

  

For a put-together look for your dog.  Shop for uniquely designed dog art collars, leashes, and bandanas for your fashionable pups.

 

Dog fashion is very popular as you can see clothing and accessories for your dog at Pet Smart and at savvy online stores.   

I always buy my dogs a matching collar and leash at Zazzle.com because I like prints rather than solids also I can edit the template to personalize it with my dog's name and contact information.  

Personalization prevents the groomer from saying, I can’t find your dog's collar or leash.  Also, the pet identification printed on the collar helps if your dog gets out of the house. Anyone who finds the dog will know who to call.

 Here are a few of my vintage rose-designed personalized dog art collars, identification tags, and leashes.  Know that a dog collar with a matching leash would be a thoughtful new dog gift. 

Vintage red rose dog tag, personalized with dog name and contact on the back.  Add this dog tag to the matching collar that you can personalize with your dog's name and the pet owner's phone number.  Complete the dog fashion look with the matching leash.  Your dog will look fabulous.

Pink Rose Flower Beach Essentials

 If you like rose flowers and bright bold colors then you will love the Zazzle-created beach essentials. The beach bag and towels feature a pink rose floral print on a turquoise blue background. 

I bought the pink rose beach towels in both colors and the large tote bag for my mother-in-law who resides on the coast and goes to the beach or the pool daily as long as the weather is nice.  

My mother-in-law bought her beach towels at a discount store and was buying many through the beach season.  My mother-in-law is a thrifty shopper and is not the type who would buy a quality made high-end beach towel set but since I gave her the beach essentials she now only uses Zazzle beach towels.  I guess it pays to buy quality-made beach essentials rather than inexpensive beach towels that fall apart when washed.   

 

Vintage pink rose beach towel 

The polyester and cotton beach towels at Zazzle are very nicely made, with a soft side on the front that feels nice on your skin.  They launder very well as long as you wash them in permanent press / warm water and tumble dry on low so that the towels would look like new for a long time.

 

Pretty pink rose floral beach towel 

Complete your beach look with a tote bag.  A beach bag is essential for carrying all that you need.

This canvas crossbody bag is a perfect style for traveling and for carrying all your beach essentials. When I go to the beach my hands are full of beach chairs and a food chest. So I really like that I can wear this bag across my body, keeping my hands free.

This brushed polyester bag is a large size and will hold your beach towel, tanning lotion, water bottle, and more. There are three interior pockets that are perfect for your sunglasses and cell phone.

Use this  carry-all tote bag for shopping too. An everyday bag like this would be a thoughtful Mother's Day, birthday, or a just-because gift for her.

I bought my mother-in-law the pink rose floral print on white and the pink and turquoise blue beach towels along with a coordinating canvas tote bag.  She loved the gift and told me that all of her beach buddies loved the floral print. They said it was beautiful.

 

 Canvas pink rose floral beach bag 

That was a year ago and to this date, she is still using the beach towels and bag that I sent her. She told me that not only is the floral print pretty but she can easily find her spot on the beach after she takes a walk due to the bright colors.

 

So if you desire a pretty floral printed beach towel and other fun-in-the-sun essentials check out my beach store here

 

BEST Bridal Shower / Bride-to-be Gifts

Update Bathroom with Rose Floral Bath Towels

 For a quick and easy bathroom update change your bath towels.  You could also touch up the paint to a color that would go with your new towel ensemble or if the paint looks good then leave it.  All you need to do is make a few cosmetic changes to your bathroom and it will look fresh and new.

This year I created botanical bath towel sets that feature vintage roses. These towels come in a variety of rose flower colors, red pink, and red.   All were created from public domain rose prints that I cut out before I hand-set them to create a unique floral design.  

You may wonder why I created bath towel sets with roses?  I find that many people love roses and think that this flower is relaxing to them.  They love the soft petals of the rose and the scent relieves stress and fights anxiety.  So for a stress-free bathroom accent the décor with roses

This photo shows rose petals and bath salts.  Wonderfully fragrant and is a bathroom accent that will compliment your new rose-printed towels. 

Here are a few of my favorite bath towel designs.  Note that you do not have to buy the towel set all are sold separately

Autumn Season Home Décor by Zazzle

 This year I found all that I needed for the autumn season at Zazzle. I shopped the seasonal home decor designs and found uniquely designed pumpkin and sunflower table runners and decorative birch box signs for wall decor or as a table accent.  

Know that before shopping online I did shop locally at home decor and craft stores in my area but really couldn't find the autumn decorations that appealed to my taste.  All of the stores seemed to have the same design, and honestly, I wanted something unique that allowed me to personalize with my own words or upload my own artwork and knew that  Zazzle.com would allow me to shop the independent designers or I could create what I needed by uploading my photographs.

Here is the birch wooden box sign that I bought at Zazzle. The design features a watercolor pumpkin with leaves and a grouping of sunflowers in the background. The birch wooden box signs are a great way to accent your autumn-season decoration, as you can set them upright on a table or hang them on a wall.

Here are the photographs I took of the pumpkin and sunflower table runner that I bought at Zazzle.com.  It looks better than what is shown on the website.  You can use it for your end-of-summer and autumn-season home decor.

Shop for high-quality outdoor solar pathway lights at ACE

I shopped at ACE hardware and found the living accents solar-powered LED path lights and liked the high-quality look of the crackle glass globe and stainless-steel hardware.  I bought six at $9.99 each.

Then press the small black button on the side of the crystal light base to change the color from white to multiple colors.   Set the solar pathway lights in an area that gets a minimum of six hours of direct sun. Switch to the on position and you are done with the installation.

My solar lights come on at dusk and stay lit until midnight.  The lights are bright and the interchanging green, red, and white colors look beautiful. I think the living accents LED solar crackle pathway lights are beautiful and I am a very satisfied customer.

Personalized home decor is a thoughtful gift for new homeowners

Know that many of my friends have bought new homes in the last year and normally I shop locally for home décor gifts but found that nothing was to my liking. I also thought that all of the stores featured the same product designs.

**Special Housewarming Gift Ideas

Now if you know the person, and know their style and their bathroom colors you may want to buy them a monogram bath towel set. A few years ago I bought my mother-in-law a monogrammed bath towel set and she loved it. 

Normally I don’t buy gifts like this but had heard her say that she shopped at many stores and couldn't find a uniquely designed gray towel set for your guest bathroom. Since I knew she liked lilies I created a watercolor floral design that consisted of pastel pink and yellow lilies on a gray background. I also personalized the hand towel with her initials.

Here is the towel set that I created for my mother-in-law. 

The hand towel features the monogram.

Cute Kid-Style Aprons/ Zazzle Product Review

 

This past winter holiday I bought my niece's darling snowman-designed aprons at Zazzle.com.  I bought the girl's specialty aprons that were personalized with their names and the girls loved their gifts.  Know that I had never bought an apron at Zazzle so I didn’t know what the quality was, nor did I know how the printing would turn out, but not knowing didn’t stop me from personalizing the aprons with the girl's names and shipping the aprons sight unseen.

The winter snowman design was adorable, the ink colors used in the printing were perfect and both girls were excited to see their names on the aprons. 

Here are photographs of the aprons.

The aprons are easy-care polyester with a twill texture finish. They come in three sizes small for kids, medium which is for an adult and hits above the knee, and large which is longer and hits below the knee. There is an apron size for everyone so if you want to create a "mommy and me" look.

The kid apron designs aren’t just for cooking/baking cookies. They can also wear them when they are painting, planting flowers, or doing other activities where their clothes need to be kept clean

Here are a few cute kid-styled aprons that I created at my Zazzle store.
