Store Feature -? MadebyMaggieMae
About - I am a SAHM to two cute kiddos. When I had my first child( a girl) I decided I wanted to learn how to sew her cute clothes. From there, the crafting bug hit me full force and I love everything from jewelry making to sewing to holiday decor projects to my new passion, family artwork. I found this site: www.twinstitchers.com that has embroidery patterns. I do NOT have the patience for embroidery so I drew it instead and started giving them as gifts. I LOVE homemade gifts! As I started giving the family trees and birthstone bracelets out as presents people kept telling me I should sell them, so here I am trying to sell them!
My Thoughts - I LOVE this shop!? When I fist saw these online, I thought they were really cute but was a bit overwhelmed.? Having to pick the face, hair color, and style of each person on my picture seemed like a lot of pressure - there were so many options and I didn't want to mess things up.
In the end it was as simple as saying "Grandma Lofley - G5 Head - Brown Hair."? It was easy to do, but I spent a looong time doing it.? I really wanted everyone to look right.
We got our finished picture within days.? And the highest praise I can give is to say that when my husband opened the package he looked at it intently for a few seconds.? Then he said, "I like that.? I really like that."
?Considering the picture is crafty, girly, and cute all at the same time, that's saying a lot.
I love the finished product.? The characters are adorable and really reflect the personality and style of the person they were modeled after. ?
I like that the drawing is done on muslin.? It adds that extra interest and makes the picture perfect to hang.? We haven't bought a frame yet, so it's hanging on our door on a hanger, but it will go up soon.?
Support Homemade - The Family Tree can be customized with up to 40 people, and varies on price accordingly.? If you love this as much as I do, you can get 20% off your entire order with the coupon code oneday20?
