Busy busy busy......

I am absolutely loving my new career! Being at home and sewing full time has been even better than I could have imagined. I do have to say, I'm working harder now than I ever have before though! LOL! I didn't think that was possible, but I've been staying VERY busy, but VERY happy :) The only problem with working from home is I work all the time! I work all day, then I work more at night, but at least I'm working on something I LOVE!

I wanted to share a few of my newest listings on eBay :) Take a peek if you have a moment!!! Just click on the photos to view the auctions :)

Girly Girl is here.....

My new Spring collection is available online now! Shop on my website by clicking or you can check out my Etsy store by clicking .

The colors in these gorgeous sets are absolutely beautiful for spring! Lots of mix and match pieces for you :) Here are a few pictures from our photo shoot :) Enjoy and Happy Shopping :)



The girls had so much fun playing together! We took them at this beautiful park in a historic area of Tampa called Hyde Park. Absolutely gorgeous houses and a beautiful part of town. Emerson promptly came home and told her Daddy "We were so surprised Daddy, Mommy was so nice to us, she let us play BEFORE and AFTER we took pictures, can you believe it?" LOL! Normally she isn't allowed to do much playing in her customs when we are taking photos! But, hey, the way I figure it, these customs were meant for playing so why not? Emerson much preferred having her photos taken with friends around and the other girls all did fantastic, everyone is already looking forward to the summer collection photo shoot since I'm planning on doing it at the beach!!!

The Countdown....

I can't believe in one week I will be a WAHM! This is like a dream come true for me. I'm sitting here busily preparing my web site and Etsy shop for my big grand opening in just a couple of weeks and it is totally surreal! Is this really happening?? I just had to share my excitement with you!!!! Just one week to go....

One the other hand, I feel like I am losing some of my very best friends in this world. The ladies and gentleman I have had the honor of working with for the last 7 years have become part of my everyday life and I know I will miss them greatly. It is amazing how much you really do learn about your co-workers and how much a part of your life they become. If you really stop and think about it, when you work a full-time job in a small office like mine, you spend more waking hours each week with your co-workers than you do your own family! This, of course, is one of the main reasons I've worked so hard to be able to quit my job, because I should be able to spend more time with my family!. Unfortunately, we are not at a point financially where I can be a SAHM with no income, but really, both of my dreams have come true. I will be able to spend so much more time with my family, while still pursuing my passion for designing custom boutique clothing!

Sorry, I tend to digress, my point is, I have had the pleasure of working with some truly special people and I just wanted to let each of you know, how much you mean to me and how much I appreciate all the support and well wishes I've received for my new venture! I love you all!!

So, this is it, just one short week to go! I can't wait to share all of the new fantastic designs I've been working on! You'll be getting a whole lotta Emerson Rose Designs here shortly....you'll be able to find us on Etsy, eBay, and our new website www.emersonrosedesigns.com (still under construction....LOL)!!!

To new beginnings :)

Pretty Princess....

I have a few updates for you this evening!!! First, I just listed these super duper cute sets on eBay :) Just click on the photos to view the auctions!!





Now on to my sweet princess, she is only 4, she's still a baby right??? Apparently not....she's already learned to ride her bike with no training wheels! She got a new big girl bike from Santa this year, but she learned on her smaller one, it was a little easier for her to balance, but already she is riding the big one now too with no one having to run next to her! She can turn and everything!! We still have a little work to do on her stopping abilities on her big bike since her feet can't touch the ground, but we're getting there!!







Thank goodness for my wonderful neighbor Shelley who is in excellent shape (unlike me) and was able to run back and forth about 150 times over the course of about 2 hours or Emerson definitely wouldn't be riding a bike without training wheels!! LOL!
So there it is, my baby is growing up **sniff sniff**.
