Beautiful Fall pictures and bows

I so much love the fall. The leaves crunching under your feet and my favorite holiday of all HALLOWEEN. These two beautiful ladies are wearing my hard interchangable headbands with layered bows. Each bow comes off to wear as a bow alone as well. Thanks Dilley gals for the fabulous pics.

These beautiful fall pictures were taken by Christy Johnson of Christy Johnson Photography. You can see more of her work at www.christyjohnsonphotography.blogspot.com Thanks to you also Christy.

Happy Birthday Pretty Girl

First birthdays are so special and for me seem so long ago as mine as 4 and 5 now. I love to create that last finishing touch to any special outfit.

Here is sweet Lindsay and Brooke sporting all sorts of my bows. Elle and I of Baby Cake Designs created Lindsay's look in her first birthday picture. Lindsay is wearing and infant interchangable headband with a large layered bow. Her sister is wearing korker bows.

Thanks beautiful girls!

Big Sis and Little Sis

I just love this picture of big sis and little sis. The Diller girls are both wearing Ellie's Essentials bows. Big Sis, Aubrey is wearing my hard interchangable headbands. It can be both a bow and a headband. Little Sis, Kylee is wearing one of my embroidered covered button letter clips. The embroidered letter can also be put in the middle of a large bow for older girls.

I hope that you girls remember this picture when you are older and yelling at one another. Thanks so much to the beautiful models.

The Belle of the Ball

So I took my family to the Valentine theater for a children series production of If you Give a Pig a Pancake and other stories. Very cute and fun for the kids to get dressed up.

I decided that it was time for Elena to bust out with a custom outfit of Elle Cotterman of Baby Cake Designs. This is the Anna skirt with a appliqued long sleeved shirt I added. I am absolutely in love with this outfit. I got so many compliments today. Way to go Elle! I paired her outfit with a large cream loopy bow that I made, but easily could have put a crochet hat with a felt flower with it. It matches perfectly. If you are interested in this outfit or a version of it contact Elle at http://www.babycakedesigns.etsy.com/ or http://www.babycakedesigns.blogspot.com/ . I picked out all my fabric and just brought it to Elle. I am so looking forward to sharing our collaborations with everyone. Elle's attention to detail and quality are second to none.

Tutu Maries custom tutus

What little girl doesn't need a tututo prance around and play in. Here are some tutus from Tutu Maries custom and handmade tutus. Laura Gahn is the owner of beautiful creations you see here. She can make any size and and any color combination for infants up to adult. Laura and I also travel around to the shows. You will probably see us together. I also make bows to match her tutus exactly. She also made a lot of tutus for the YMCA's spring recital.

You can see more of Laura's tutus at http://www.tutumaries.com/ .

Fall Beauty

Dont you just love Fall. This adorable model is sporting one of my Hard Interchangable Headbands. The bow comes off to wear as only a bow or you can just wear the headband. All my other bows can be worn in the headband as well.

Thanks baby girl.

Flower Power

Here is an adorable picture of a infant sporting one of my infant headbands and flower clips. They are

interchangable and very stretchy. The headband will also go up to girls so you get max wear out of it.

Gotta love the hats

I just had to share pictures of my crochet hats by the Lizcano girls. Thanks Mara for the photos. These hats are not just for the hair challenged infants, but also for toddler and girls with tons of hair. The flowers are felt and removable to be worn as a clip also.

This Foofah layered plus bow was made for a Halloween costume. I was informed by my daughter that she is from Yo Gabba Gabba. I cant wait to see it with the costume with the bow.

Well welcome to the Ellie's Essentials blog. I am just figuring this out so bare with me. I just wanted to be able to share with all of you loyal bow lovers my custom creations.
