Good things keep on happening!

I just wanted to share a great website that I came across called Ma Nouvelle Mode.  Natalia is a mom who lives in Paris, and her blog theme and selections are beautiful.  She features a combo of fashion, hair, and beauty theme with handmade items sprinkled in.




She has also featured us in her holiday gift guide, which we are thrilled to be a part of.  I encourage you to check it out and see what her website has to offer!

Below is a little bit of background information about the creators of Two Bees Creations, and then a photo gallery of our latest items!

ABOUT US

Two Bees Creations was started by the two Bees themselves- Bonnie and her niece, Briana.

Bonnie Says: My favorite sewing memory is from when I was 20 years old. I had just moved to California from the suburbs of New York. I was captivated by the big city and how carefree everyone seemed. I walked down the streets, looking at the chic boutiques and thought to myself "I could make those things!" Many years later my dream of sewing unique things for others as a business has come true, and I couldn't be happier to have a chance to follow my dream.

Briana Says: Since I was a little girl, I was fascinated by my Aunt Bonnie's amazing sewing and crafting skills. Every time I received a new hand-crocheted sweater or a delicately made doll party dress, I could feel how much much love and time was put into it. As an adult, I still feel that way when she makes something for me, and I hope that you can feel a little handful of love too when you open your package from us!
