Welcome all you beautiful people to Wild Pixie Couture's blog. I hope that all of you will find this the best way for you to get to know me, the designer and creator of WPC!
Bare with me please. It's been awhile since I have used blogspot and honestly have no idea how to change my layout to make it all pretty. But I'm sure soon enough I can find someone to help me personalize it to match my crazy, silly, creative moods.
If you are reading this, some of you are already fans of the Wild Pixie. Some may be friends and family. And some may not know a thing about me, but curious to find out more. No matter where you come from, I am delighted to have you here reading my stuff. That makes me look a little more important. Hehe. I thank you for giving me your time...
You might know that I was a former co-owner of the boutique Cookie Crumbs Couture. There were 3 of us. Shannon, Tiffany and I. We had a great ride with CCC and we accomplished so much so fast that we were even spotlighted on Fox 2 news Detroit of our designs. Wow, that was an amazing accomplishment and our fan based grew very quickly. In the end though, we all decided we wanted different things. Everyone has different personalities and their own way of making their business what they really want it to be. We all created our own boutiques that reflected who we really are....So here I am...
Who is Wild Pixie???.... The name is Faith and I am a 30 year old mother of 4 beautiful children who I have been blessed with everyday of my life to remind me of the importance of love, passion and creativity. All my kids are very different from each other. They all challenge me everyday but with each personality I learn to become a Mom who is strong enough to get through any rain and storm. I live for them and their happiness.... I have two handsome boys, Sean who is 14 and in his first year in high school. He thinks he is such a stud now... :-) Then there's Skylar who is almost 12 and he was always Mommy's boy. Until recently, he is starting to get some teenage attitude. hehe. Nothing Momma can't fix. I only wish I can persuade him to get a haircut. What do I have to do to convince him that his hair is just too long? Brainwashing anyone???? lol.
Then of course, alas, my 2 precious girls. My reason and inspiration for designing all the beautiful clothing and accessories that Wild Pixie Couture offers you.... Maya is 5. My first girl. The daughter I have waited so long to have. I wanted so bad to have a little princess who I could dress in fun pretty dresses and cute little pigtails. Maya has always been the girly girl. Fancy dresses, hairbows and jewelry with purses in tote. She never goes anywhere without looking fabulous. While I on the other hand look a hot mess standing next to her. It is so not right! LOL. We're working on that!!!... Anyhoo, she's a free spirit just like her Momma! ....
Then there's Savannah, oh my Savannah Banana. She just turned 3 last Sunday. I used to call her Chunky Monkey but she has really thinned out alot. It's so sad, I love chunky babies, but she is so beautiful! I just love to snuggle with her. I really wish they didn't grow so fast!!.... :-( She loves to be pretty but she is also a tomboy!! Oh yes, the girl has the most shoes in the whole house but you can bet there's plenty of high tops, converse and sneakers in the mix of all that sparkles.....
My Designs? I don't stick to any particular theme or style. My creativity pretty much comes from the heart and soul. My personality, thoughts and feelings all reflect my creations so I try to always be positive, happy, and motivated so that my mind is clear of the negative and I don't end up with a crappy design. lmbo. I have a lot of fun with my job and I think it's fabulous!
Of course, I could never do all this without the support of my darling husband, Scott, who is wonderful at pretending that he likes everything I like.
:-) Sure honey, yes honey, that looks GREEAATT!!!!.... GREAT JOB!!!.... Isn't that all we really expect anyway?... The good words. The thumbs up. The hugs and kisses and a little bit of cash to help support the supplies? lol. You can bet he gets his nights when all he wants is for me to hang up the measuring tape and scissors and go sit next to him, watch a movie. He works everyday for 12 hours. I don't see him as often as I'd like so I want to spend all his time home with him. It's still hard trying to find a balance between work, family, and marriage but we survive and our love just grows stronger everyday...
Now that I have written a book. This is just an intro of my life and my business. There's so much more to come. All around me, I am surrounded with an awesome family and the best of friends. There's always a story to tell, a new design to be shared, lots of new ideas, incentives and promotions to come. Follow my blog and feel free to comment.
