Twins! I had the honour of making items for a set of twins that Wendy O'Rourke (http://wendyorourkephotography.webs.com) photographed. Look at these shots, I am speechless - these little ones are extremely precious and don't even need further explanation. Just Enjoy!



Look at those perfect little faces! Such beauties. 

And the cocoon - absolutely beautiful!

Pretty in Pink

Take a peek at this adorable coordinating set (which is available in any colour combination). Stephanie (stephsphotography.ca) was so generous and took a picture of this set on her beautiful brand new daughter. I just love everything about this set!! The details of the stripes, the adorable wooden buttons, and the variety of stitching used for a gorgeous look. Not to mention the ADORABLE little baby who is showing my work off! :)

Contact me if you'd like to purchase.
Special thank you to Stephanie from Stephsphotography.ca.

Its been a while since the last post (sorry!) - I have been busy, working away, enjoying the sun and the best part - coming up with NEW designs! I have a few local photographers in the process of getting me some pictures of these new items. You will love them! Unique little hats and the cutest little diaper covers possible. 


I have a little 'niece'  (you know the one who I like to think is family, but technically isn't - she appeared in some of my first photos). Anyways, she is now almost 5 months old! I am coming up with a whole bunch of new ideas and she is the perfect little model (in mine, and mommy's eyes). If you are a photographer, looking to get some more experience, please let us know! We are looking for a photographer who is interested in spending a couple ours with my props and my model. You will get some pictures for your portfolio, and we would get some shots for my portfolio. Please let me know if you are interested!


Anyways, here are the latest images we have received from some amazing ladies! 


The First --- our new photographer friend, A. Joosse Photography. These pictures show off one of my latest creations. The diaper cover and adorable teddy bear hat to match. The flower is on a detachable clip - so its suitable for boy models too! Enjoy!

The second, Wendy O'Rourke -- another new photographer friend. She used our green coccoon and one of our favourite ear flap hats! These are too cute! Take a peek! (and check out those lips - SO CUTE!)

Wanted: Photographers to test some product...

As I create more and more designs I am constantly looking for photographers to play with my props. Over the next few months, I am going to be posting an item and looking for a photographer who would like to play with it, in exchange for a professional picture that can be added to my portfolio. You get the use of props... and I get some pictures for my use! Sounds like a great deal to me! :)


If you are interested (or know of anyone who is - email lesleydesigns@hotmail.com).


Michlynn Schweitzer (Michlynn Schweitzer Photography - www.michlynnschweitzer.com) has provided us with these awesome shots! Take a peek at these cutie pies.

Busy Busy Busy!

I have been SO busy the past few weeks finishing up some projects, and designing and completing new hats!! As some of you know I was in Mexico on vacation. It was a wonderful refresher and inspired me to complete a whole bunch of little tiny hats! Here is a sneak preview.






Please remember that all hats can be made in a variety of colours and combinations. If you don't see exactly what you are looking for - send me an email at lesleydesigns@hotmail.com and I can custom create an item for you.

Just before the holidays I had rented tables at local craft shows to get the word out and display my work.
I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Stephanie from Stephs Photography (www.stephsphotography.ca) at one of those shows.












She had purchased a couple of my hats to use for newborn photography shoots and has been extremely kind in letting us post some of her work!  Aren't they absolutely adorable?!
















To contact Stephanie for photo shoots please visit her website at stephsphotography.ca.
