Bonne Girl Tala's Turban

 I gave my niece, Tala a turban headband.  To which she exclaims, "Thank you ninang. I love it.  I want to wear it everyday!"

Little Owl's 1st Birthday

I LOVE OWLS! I've done owl projects from patchwork to plushies, fascinators, sequins and now masks. So you can imagine how excited I was when I heard that my cousin will be throwing an owl-themed party for her little Olivia.  I just had a hoot working on this one!

I love the theme.  I felt sad knowing the fate of the poor little owl pinata though.

Liv's handmade felt hoot headband by Bonne.

Lovely little Liv.

I was told the owl masks were a hit at the photobooth :)

Tea Party!

A little lady turned one last weekend.
Baby Maya had a lovely tea party and wore a pearl headband 

with cotton-candy inspired applique, silver french netting and white feathers.

Tala the Faerie

My  4-year-old niece loves to play dress-up. Naturally, she had to wear something cute for  an enchanted-themed party.  She wore a pink and purple tutu I made especially for her.

 Leaves were embellished by her mom, by hand.  Bravo!

Here's what I made for Tala's Halloween party 2 years ago.  

fab fourth fab email

I love hearing from my fab clients.  Seeing this in my inbox today made me smile:
Hi bon!  How are you?  This is CJ from Cebu City. I wanna thank you again for helping make my prenup and my wedding perfect. We did a vintage movie inspired shoot from different decades...we did atonement, grease, chicago, hairspray...and I wore one of your headbands during the hairspray shoot.  And I just wanted to share with you some pictures of us during the hairspray shoot. Thank you so much, the headband was just right with the outfit. 

I will send you pictures of the wedding soon, your birdcage veil that I wore and the headpieces that my entourage wore were so beautiful.  A lot of guests commented on how lovely the headpieces were.  Thank you again.  I will be sharing with you pix of the wedding soon, if you don't mind.

God bless always, I am a huge fan.
