Monogram Monday

Happy Monday! I have lots of monograms to share with you today and I’m going to start off with one that was not stitched by me. These napkins were my birthday gift from my mom last year and I sure do love them. The color combination coordinates perfectly with my dining room and the pop of pink adds fun color to my white china. Hubs and I hosted some neighbors and their children for a dinner party last night. The menu was decidedly casual and seven kids were running around, but I always enjoy setting the dining room table with my good stuff. I think it makes guests feel special. Also, use it if you got it, right? I believe my mom ordered these beauties from Hempstead Thread.

More rain lately, although we did a few days of sunshine this past week. These monogrammed Totes umbrellas for kids were a hit on Instagram for EmeryBodie LLC.

I’m still cranking out lots of baby items…The personalized snack traps come in so handy. Both of my kids had these and we took them everywhere. And how fun are these wipes cases?!?! I think they are so much fun and make a great gift. The Angel Dear loveys are THE BEST. No other loveys compare. And everybody needs burp cloths, right? I had so much fun making these for a little boy with a jungle theme nursery.I had never stitched a four wheeler before, but this particular customer requested an orange four wheeler for her son who is starting a new school and I was determined to make it happen. I found this design on Etsy and I am smitten with it. I’m so eager to stitch this on more items. Speaking of backpacks, I got bought myself a new backpack! And monogrammed it! My beloved REI backpack finally gave up the ghost on my last ski trip. I wash my backpack after almost every use because I think it gets pretty gross from sweat, airplanes, food spills, etc. I throw it in the washing machine and hang it to dry. Well, I guess I should hand wash it because the poor thing split down the sides and all of the padding came out. RIP pretty green backpack. However, I am happy to have this gorgeous blue Osprey for its replacement. A neon pink monogram really makes it special. I can’t wait to use it.
