Hair Wreaths for Flower Girls

Get your flower girl ready with a fun activity.
The most common and widely recognized accessory for flower girls is the willowy budded hair wreath that was made popular by old English wedding ceremonies. Today a fabric satin hair piece is more common complete with comb teeth for perfect placement in an updo. Of course this is a cleaner look than a natural flower girl hair piece , but we have one fun little activity for your flower girl. Flower girls may be a little nervous being a part of a production with cameras pointing and people fussing over them. It is important to sit down with your young one to explain what they are doing, their duties, and that its perfectly fine to relax and not worry about being perfect.
While talking about her duties buy a bouquet from your local grocery floral department. Soft stemmed flowers are best. Pick colors that match her flower girl dress. Spread them out on your table and create a natural wreath. You can weave the stems like a traditional christmas wreath or you can split the ends and tie the stems together like one does with butter cups and dandilions on the school play yard.
Either way this fun activity will hold her attention while you explain the grown up details of ceremonies and the role of a flower girl. Let her wear her homemade hair piece and practice her single step walk down the aisle between the kitchen chairs.
Don't forget to let her practice in her flower girl shoes if the new footwear had an inch heal. This is a big day, there is no reason not to stretch out the excitement while getting her ready.

In the heat of the Summer the Holiday catalogs have arrived.


So, here it is the end of July. The temp today is 101 in New England and the sun is just ruthless. Its so hot one can only crack the front door and squeeze a blind palm through the furnace like opening to fetch the mail sitting in the hot metal box. One thick envelope takes priority. A month early this year, our favorite flower girl dress manufacturer Sweet Kids has sent out the holiday and fall dress line. Sweet Kids never disappoints, and this season is a treat. We're so excited for this catalog that we haven't put our flower girl dress line completely together for the winter season but we can't help to give you a bit of a tease.

Pageant, Recital, and Dance Dresses



This great style has been cut in prom dresses for a few seasons now, but just recently these great dresses have been cut in younger girls dresses sizes. For the first time we've been able to get these at children's sizes 2 - 12. Size two approximately fits a 2 years old toddler and twelve will fit your average 6th grader. This is a perfect style for a 6th grade graduation!



The vibrant turquoise and green dress is our favorite hands down. This dress has arrived and is ready to ship now. Does her pageant have a tropical or carnival theme? You found your dress!



Valentines day is coming! You have plenty of time to order this dress now. They are here in our office and stocked to ship.

Fall Weddings are Crisp, Fresh, and Angelic


One of our favorite new fall flower girl dresses is a stunning little ivory number perfect for an angelic cherub to scatter bright autumn flower petals down the aisle.
A new sweet kids design "sk3733" can be matched with nearly any autumn themed wedding and this timeless style will carry right into the holiday season.


Made from quality taffeta and decorated with embroidered stars, the quilted pattern gives it a flavor of vintage fashion. Of course if the wedding is an earthy sage and ivory theme, Sweet Kids has made this dress in another popular winter/ holiday color
Touch this dress up with a black or ivory patten leather shoe and an ankle sock with a lace ruffle. The beauty of a tea length style when choosing children's formal wear is that is can be dressed down a bit by flattening the under layer crinoline or adding a solid color pinafore making it perfect as a Sunday school dress or a little holiday concert number.

Flower Girl Princess just got this beautiful new dress in for August!
Its an Ivory Jaccard Tea Length dress. Which is going to be great for the fall!
This dress just hit our floor and were expecting that it wont last long with it being so popular! This dress is Michelle's absolute favorite!

The dress is tea length and fully lined with crinoline netted skirt for an added fullness which is always a plus!

The sash is not removable but the added flower is so it doesn't damage while cleaning the dress.
All of these features make this dress an amazing buy, and if you happen to pick this dress up im sure you wont be dissapointed!

Sweet Kids is an American manufacturer of children's formal wear that has always been on our list of most loved craftsmen. So, it was no surprise to us to see Sweet Kids designs spread across the pages of US Weekly recently. Style SK3703 was worn by the little ones of Tori Spelling during a wedding anniversary vow renewal this past month in California. Although this beautiful little princess was snapped in the off white chiffon dress we carry this dress in five other colors along with the sheer off white.
Little Stella looks like an angel
and so would any toddler in this little girls dress
