Vendor Spotlight: 3 Bling Circus

It's Vendor Spotlight Friday! We'd like to introduce 3 Bling Circus to hello there! house 

My girls were lucky enough to model some of 3 Bling Circus frilly outfits & darling headbands. Please excuse Olivia's hammy-ness. 

Oh geez. And please forgive Evelyn's aversion to adorable blue fluffy baby ensembles.  Their baby bloomers with matching tops are the cutest things ever. 

I love this pink one. And Penelope was having a bit of a meltdown so we just got a shot of her gorgeous hot pink top with the fabric & marabou rosette. 

Their stuff is too die for cute, I'm telling you. I think I need these blinged out converse kicks for all my girls

They do more than just baby and little girl stuff- I'm loving all their funky junk jewelry. They have accessories for every age, baby to adult. 

The ladies behind 3 Bling Circus are Laura & Kelli O'Connell- a mother & daughter team

Laura is a retired teacher that loves to make headbands and hair accessories.

Laura's Boheme Necklace $75

Kelli is the owner and stylist at Salon Intrigue in Mesa. She upcycles vintage pieces to make new unique jewelry. Contact the ladies at (480) 338-3699 or at info@3blingcircus.com!

Kelli's Jade Palace Necklace $19

Peacock Tyler Hair Clip $24

Vendor Spotlight: Wood Creations Furniture

Welcome to our first Vendor Spotlight! We are so excited to have Wood Creations Furniture on board with us at hello there! house - as the last unfinished furniture store in the East Valley, they are a treasure trove of gorgeous wood furniture, upholstered furniture, home decor & custom finished furniture. I got to take pictures of this amazing dining set in the unseasonably beautiful weather here in AZ. I love how the sunshine peeks through the leaves of the tree and kisses the table's turquoise burnished legs & chairs. Wouldn't this be lovely outside on your patio?

I fancied it up with my tea set and handmade paper lollies & flags. This kind of decor is spattered all around my house- it makes it very festive. I can just imagine eating grilled pizzas & watermelon on this table on this nice under-90-degree day :)

Would this be perfect in your house? Do you want to check out the rest of the completely customizable furniture at Wood Creations? How about a coupon then? If you go into the store and bring in our special hello there! house coupon you can get 25% off one item in the store- which could be a HUGE savings if you are in the market for a bed, entertainment center, or a dining table.

They have so many things to offer both in store, in catalogs that you can order, and even online. Their unfinished online store even ships to anywhere in the country so if you are looking for some real wood unfinished furniture you can paint yourself- check out their online store!

Doesn't this table look just like one in Pottery Barn? And you can now make it whatever color you want! I'm even more thrilled because BJ Powell, the owner of Wood Creations is teaching the Designer Style on a Budget class at our Event to show everyone how to get the looks you love in Pottery Barn, Z gallerie, West Elm, Crate & Barrel, and other Designer Stores for much less- I can't wait!

We're Now On Facebook!
