Made With Love By Penny: Trying something new

Hello everyone,

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter and if you have children who are currently on school holidays that they and you are enjoying your time together.

Okay let's get into it for this week.
Booties - 1 pair done.
I know it's bad but I do have a very good reason. My hubby's aunty is about to become a great-great-grandmother and has asked for me to make an outfit for her upcoming gggrandchild. What is a woman to do? Especially when she loves this particular Aunty to pieces. She pulls out her patterns and starts looking for unisex patterns that will befit the soon to be here bubba.

Diaper Covers.
Photos have been taken and much to hubby's disgust I have decided I want him to rephotograph EVERYTHING! lol

See we had originally chosen a white and pale lemon background. Unfortunately, hubby has also had to revert to using a black background for those items that just don't show up properly. Now I'm not saying I'm a perfectionist, (not really) but I have been watching a lot of Youtube tutorials regarding selling and making sure that you have cohesiveness with what you are doing, especially when it comes to photographing your items for sale.
Ahh, now I know a few of you have just seen the light-bulb flash before your eyes. Cohesiveness is not what I have at the moment in regards to background for the baby clothes I make.

Enter a trip to Spotlight!
We both decided that rather than using A3 size card which hubby says he has trouble in making sure that he doesn't get anything else like the card table or wall into the picture, we

both came to the conclusion that using material would be a better idea.
Now let me tell you, choosing something that is neutral per say but yells baby is quite difficult. I found some beautiful fabrics but they were either extremely bright and busy or were copyrighted material with famous characters. YIKES...this was not looking like a good outing. We found some different neutral colours that we both liked but spending between $25 AUD and $50 AUD for a meter of material was not practical.
Feeling quite despondent and not thinking we were ever going to find anything, we started heading out of the store only to come across a shelving display of material on sale and thank the Goddess, we found the perfect, well two perfect lots of material...a nice dove grey background with white outlined rabbits on it and a white with dark grey outlined teddy bears. Ten minutes later we walked out with a meter of the white with the teddy's on it.
I can not wait to see what the photos are going to look like with the new backgrounds.

New thoughts going through the brain.
After getting our new background, I am now considering changing my logo background etc, even contemplating changing the name a little as the store name is quite long BUT that is one I am going to have to really think long and hard about.

I hope you like the photos with the old backgrounds of the diaper covers. I'll be posting them up as soon as I have all the info filled out and replacing the photos with the new background as they are taken.

Hope you all have a great week.
