Diane von Furstenberg- Fashion Exhibit & Awards

If you love fashion you would of loved this exhibit! Last May, my husband and I went to the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles to see "Diane von Furstenberg: Woman Before Fashion." It was an amazing look at her life especially after her famous "wrap dress" swept the country in the early 1970's.

Here is a video I made about this wonderful trip. I enjoyed it so much, I wish I could of seen it a few more times.

In an interview, Diane said that she made a dress and the dress made her. Since becoming an iconic force in the fashion world, she continues to use her platform to elevate women around the world. She recently hosted her annual DVF Awards event during Venice's film festival. It was beautiful to see how she honored these select women with funding and global publicity to help in their significant work. Who would of thought a little dress would go on to make big opportunities for Diane and the women she serves.

Check out the recap of the DVF Awards 2025 on her YouTube Channel. HERE

I hope my video about this inspiring exhibit and the awards' event encourages you to use more of your resources to improve the lives of others around you. Have a good day!

Relaunch of Our Business

Our goal with all these creative products is to inspire others with love, hope, joy and peace. Here are so...

Emmy's 2010

Did you watch the red carpet last night for the Emmy's? I love watching these award show red carpets more than the show itself. I just saw the pictures online. One the sites I looked at was radaronline.com. These pictures are from there. First, I liked the navy blue one. The dress had lots of drama and she wore it well. The purple one was interesting. Still trying to decide if I like it. Maybe it would have been better with the layers on the bottom but not both. I really love the color and the idea. Maybe a little too much going on. radaronline.com This next dress worn by Eva Longoria was so pretty. The black flowers on the bottom of the dress was so stunning! She looked great, too. I wonder how the dress would look in a lighter color? Maybe the floral details would show up better. radaronline.com Out of all the dresses I saw these were the most interesting ones. I was a little disappointed there weren't more WOW dresses. Also, there were s...

Valentine's Cards

Happy belated Valentine's Day. I hope it was a sweet one for you all. I just love making greeting cards for this holiday. Nornally for Valentine's I make red and black cards which I love but this year I decided to add some pastel colored cards to my collection. Earlier this year, I made some cards with this beautiful paper pad from Michael's. I loved it so much, I just had to see if I could use it for Valentine's and they look great to me. Details: Recollections Paper is from Michael's 6x6 paper pad called "Blush and Mint." Flowers made with my Spellbinders scalloped circles. Take a look! Do you feel the love? LOL! Cards are 5x7 in size. See the heart in the center? Love that idea! Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day!
