| This how this journey begins ....... This entire outfit was made out of craft paper. I purchased this paper to use in one of my many scrapbooks that I make for myself, friends and family. I was messing around with this paper, watching tv and handbags popped in my head! Ok, I happened to be watching the QVC channel. Well after the handbag was made, an outfit popped in my head with a matching hat. Ok, so after that was done, an idea for a whole boutique popped in my head lol and thus began the madness of Ginger's Boutique of Gems |
 |
| Different hat and handbag and of course the cute little handmade puppy. |
Ok moving on to the boutique..........
 |
| Here is the grand opening of Ginger's Gems. The back drop of the boutique is made from cereal boxes, electrical tape and craft stock paper. |
 |
| The flooring is vinyl tile from home depot. Shelves are empty jewelry boxes, as well as other sized empty boxes. |
 |
| Top shelf is an empty jewelry box top with black craft foam to hold sunglasses. Hat, bag and clutch on top are made from raised craft paper. Standing shelf is made from my iphone case:) |
 |
| This is June (a previous repaint) shopping with her friend Harper. Harper is shopping for boots. |
 |
| Here, try these white ones! |
 |
| Ok, what about these silver sexy ones? |
 |
| Ginger counting the money lol |
 |
| Ginger She has a full face repaint using artistic acrylics and sealers.. Her hair was washed then twisted down her back in a loose twisted style. |
 |
| Shoes are from the Basic Accessory packs that Odd Lots had on sale for eight bucks apiece! |
 |
| How do I look in these sunglasses? |
 |
| June thinks that she needs these short sexy boots for herself! |
 |
| Opps, sorry says Ginger, I don't have those in your size, how about these sexy black ones? |
 |
| June is a little disappointed that she can't get the ones she wanted in her size! |
 |
| Counter is made from the other part of my iphone. Display stands are made from a paper towel roll. |
 |
| Sold! |

ReplyDeleteHi Barbiecafe, I am just crafty I guess? I also saw a video on my froggy stuff on how to make a few of the purses. The boots however are handmade but not by me. They are made by a friend of mine and not of paper :)
