***new TyBro item - hat racks are here!!!***

let's hear it for the BOYS!!

i said i was working on them and here they are - personalized hat racks!! i have a variety of sizes that I can work with but shown here are the baseball hooks. They are 6" in diameter and hold approximately 4-6 youth-sized baseball hats on the double hook shown.


yankees and angels hat racks for the boys in my house (still have to personalize them). despite my best efforts, my oldest seems to gravitate toward the angels. blasphemy! at least it's not the red sox... ;)





and this is the oblong-shaped hat rack - perfect for the football fans! it spans about 7" across and 5" in height. i can mount one double hook or two single hooks on this rack.

***if you're looking for something that would hold more than 4-6 hats, i do have larger plaques. they don't come in baseball/football shapes but can be designed to match any decor, sports team, etc. and more hooks can be added.

more than just a place for photos

these frames are such a cool way to frame a favorite photo. i love finding the perfect quote or word to describe the person(s) that are being framed.

this "cherish" frame was made as a gift for someone who recently lost her brother. i hope she finds the perfect photo of the two of them to put in this frame.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

and this frame was made to celebrate little Brody's (aka Lil Peanut's!) first birthday. to deliver this frame to my client, we arranged to meet for lunch where both of our Brody's (and their big brothers) dined together. :)

Happy Birthday, Brody!

new wall letter fonts and sizes!

at last i've found a way to offer a wide variety of fonts for my wall letters! while i love the classic block letters, it's always fun to expand

here are some of my first 'experiments' with new fonts.


this large letter "A" was done in a Lucida font and painted to match little "A's" nursery. it is 24" in height (the standard height is 9") so it's a large, bold, yet classy accent piece that rests on a shelf in A's room. i love A's mom's sense of style and admire her eye for decorating so i love this idea!

(pricing on enlarged letters do vary as they cost more to make).
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

i was so happy to reconnect with an old college friend and sorority sister (ah, the powers of facebook) and honored when she asked me to put together some letters for her daughter's room. she chose "Vingy" font and her colors were light and dark pinks and navy blues. when i was finished with these i attached navy blue ribbons to allow them to hang on little sophia's walls.


++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

and these letters were so fun to do - plus it was nice to do something "boy" after all these girly girl orders! Ty's mom sent me photos of his construction bedding so i created his letters to accent his bedding and room colors.

(construction signs are hand-painted.)

new fonts

playing around with some new fonts for the hair bow holders. they are a very popular item these days! :)




girly girl

all about the girls these days! a few more orders for hairband boxes to help keep all those hairbands from running away, falling behind the dresser, etc.

this set was made for a set of twins!



and this one was designed to match the growth chart and hair bow holder that already adorn sweet "A's" bedroom! love the pinks and browns together!

**new item alert!**

and i'm happy to announce that TyBro Treasures is adding another new item! i haven't even posted it to the official website yet! now available: personalized hair band boxes in a variety of shapes and sizes (mini round, square, mini square, flower, star, and hexagon).

here are the latest:






half-sized growth chart

this client requested a growth chart but had a very specific place where it would fit on the wall in her son's room. originally she had a cloth growth chart hanging there and "someone" took a sharpie marker to it to measure his own height! looking for a more durable replacement, she came to me! this chart is still 48" in height but only 7.5" across. other TyBro growth charts are 12" across. this "half-sized" chart is now available upon request.
