Layette Project!! (^3^)

This was my very first project I had to do for children's wear which is a layette that is made from either 100% organic cotton or recycled clothes. This one I made was from my old shirt that I really liked, but got ruined when someone through in a pair of socks that dyed it blue. I was able to cut the pieces on the spots that didn't have the blue dye and compose this little yellow summer dress for a new born princess.(^^v) The hat and booties were suppose to be a panda design, but I used a lavender with white pajama pants for it. 

Here it is:

I'd like to sell only this dress, but the only downside to it is the buttoning at the bottom. Well the theme was eco friendly so I recycled the buttons from another white shirt instead of putting in new snaps which would have been easier to use for diaper change. But if anyone is interested since summer is coming, please let me know because I haven't decided the price for it yet. ^w^

Wild Denim Project!!!! *(0v0)*

This is a design for my denim project, in which we were all told to design any type of denim pants for any age range. So this is what I came up with based on the trends from whats popular in women's wear. I think the design is really cute and the colors really shows how it's meant for a cool girly girl. I love the print, and I still have lots of it. If anyone wants the print to be used in either bag design, I will gladly do. 

Here are the cute bloomer denim shorts I created:

Unfortunately, I don't think I'm going to sell this because it has drawstrings at the hem which should be replaced with elastic for better movement. Then there is the button that needs to be replaced with snaps if I wanted it to function properly for kids. But anyway, I really like the design and just wanted to share it. (^w^)/

Children's Swimsuit Design!! \(^w^)/

Well here is the swimsuit I did for my final project in children's wear. I think it's pretty cute because my inspiration is that of the retro 50's and everyone liked the red cover-up with the yellow cherries. The original idea was to have a red gingham instead of polka dots, but I couldn't find any red gingham prints on spandex, so I opted on red on white polka dots. The outcome wasn't that bad, and I think it came out pretty well. The cover-up took the least amount of time to make, due to the fact that it's a simple square towel in which I slitted in a certain way to obtain this certain look. After cutting it in a certain way, I just bounded the seams with white seam tape and since I thought it looked kind of bland, I added the yellow cherries to make it extra cute. ^^v

 Here is the outcome of my hard work: 

Isn't it just adorable!!!! As much as I would like to, I've decided not to sell it, but I just wanted to share it. v(^w^)v~ enjoy!!~ 

First Bag Design!!!!

This is the first bag I have ever designed and made and I'm quite proud of it. I still have the patterns for this design, so if anyone is interested in a replica, I can make one for you. But if your asking for a panda on it, I probably won't put it on anymore due to the fact that it's simply drawn on fabric with prisma markers and then sewn on top of the fabric is vellum (see through shower curtain). But vellum is pretty hard to deal with, the fumes coming off of it is quite toxic when you try to iron out any creases. Here is the picture of the bag. 

  All in all I'll just sell this bag for around 40-50 dollars, it's quite cute in my opinion and it fits snugly on your shoulders.^^ 

Little Red Dress for Sale!!!!~

Right now I'm studying Children's wear and for one of our projects, we were required to make a dress for either a 5 year old or 10. I chose to make one for a 5 year old and the outcome was this really colorful, playful dress that many people loved. It was chosen to go on display in school, but got kicked off by the committee because it wasn't one of the things required by some people from somewhere. But anyways, it doesn't matter because why put it on display when it's gonna sit there and collect dust when I can sell it!!!! ^_^... so I decided to sell it through this account... anyone interested can take a look here.

 Well I thought before putting it on display I wanted to see how it looked on a live person, so I put it in the fashion show and you can see it visible in this video... ^^

The little black girl is seven, but i guess she's skinny enough to fit in it, but it's kinda short, so if anyone wants to buy this dress for someone special you can judge how it might fit base on this model. I haven't thought on price yet, but I was thinking about 60-85 dollars plus shipping and handling... If anyone is interested, Please leave a comment below... ^_^V

The Launch Of BuruBeri!!!! ~.*\(^o^)/*.~

Today will be the official launch of BuRu Beri which would be the start to my little hobby of selling bags that I design and make for a small income. Why the name BuRu Beri? That's because my name is Beryl, and when translated into Japanese it becomes beriru which it terms sounds like blue berry. I enjoy making things for personal reasons and being complimented enough by my surrounding friends, I decided to sell the things I make. Here are some examples of the bags I made and feel free to leave a comment.

For now that's all I have.... It's pretty epic fail for a pic, but there's more to come so look forward to them... ^^V...... I'll keep updating..... for how much it may cost.... I was thinking at least 50 dollars..... for the shipping and handling I haven't really thought of it yet because school is still in session and I still have about a week to go before I can really start on planning things..... Estimated time from cutting, to sewing, to packing and shipping, it'll take about 4-6 days...... So thats all for now folks...(^w^)/
