RUFFLES! Christmas Tree Skirt and Pillows

Its been "Christmas Time" around here for a while, so it feels strange that the rest of the world has caught up and is starting to decorate their trees now that the Turkey has digested.  For anyone who hasn't caught the bug to decorate your tree or house for Christmas yet, I thought I would share a custom order for a very LUCKY little girl that is just so girlie, with lots of pink and ruffles - sure to get a swoon from all!

What's Under Your Tree

Inquiring minds always ask me, when discussing fabrics for custom Christmas Tree Skirts, "Well, what do you have under your tree?" The question always reminds me of when I ask servers at restaurants which entree they recommend. To me, whether in Christmas Tree Skirts or meals, it always comes down to personal taste - but I know we all find comfort in getting an endorsement on our choice from an expert (although how I became an expert in Christmas Tree Skirts of all things stills boggles my mind a bit).



This is the tree skirt that started it all for Love Elaine on Etsy. As I (and Mom, and Grandma, and Aunt Faith, and Aunt Sue), can now see the end of the tunnel on another successful holiday season coming to an end, I continue to be amazed by the overwhelming response for Christmas tree skirts and stockings that started from a little project Mom and I finished on our beach vacation 3 years ago.

Thank you to everyone and Happy Holiday Decorating!

Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

I know, I am sure this post title seems odd, as it is only October 31, but I've been thinking about the upcoming holiday season since JULY! That is when I placed the order for all of our LOVELY holiday fabrics for this year. I just know everyone is going to love our new fabrics for Christmas 2010! New this year - we are offering the stockings to match, as well as the option to personalize your stockings with embroidered names, monograms or initials! So, what are you waiting for? You know its time to replace your old Christmas Tree skirt, with a brand, spanking-unique-to-you, 100% handmade tree skirt from Love Elaine!

And, if you like the Christmas Tree Skirt pictured above, you can buy it online on Etsy!

Thank you so much to my fabulous friends Carter, Stephanie and Meena (who just so happen to also be fabulous designers) for helping me with the Holiday product photo shoot! Meena snapped a behind-the-scenes picture of me in the middle of things, rearranging Carter's mantle! Ooo, I love the magic of photoshoots!
