June 22, 2020Leave a comment

We’ve seen a lot of adorable puppy parties, but this one has a twist! A party for YOUR puppy! Cute Ziggy turned 1! His mamma @blyssphotography did the most adorable puppy party for him! So excited that our Puppy 2.0 dress was included (ziggy is one of the pups on the dress!)

Our friend @janburgard created the adorable puppy cookies using Taylor Joelle cookie cutters, She does a wonderful job carefully packaging and shipping the cookies.

My mom, Diane Robison, does adorable party printables to match the dress.

The adorable party hats are from @littleblueolvie and the ball garland is from @peaberrystudio

We’ve got shirts to match the puppy dress here

Can’t wait to see puppy puppy parties!! Thanks so much Blyss Photography for sharing this one with us!

So Many Ways to Be (or Dress) Wicked

August 29, 2019August 29, 2019Leave a comment

We are gearing up for Halloween, and so excited to bring you Descendants inspired dresses! These Dresses will be available at Taylor Joelle middle of September. They are inspired by Mal and Evie. You can dress them up for a Halloween Mal or Evie Costume, a Descendants party, or you can simply wear them to school and everyday activities. They are comfortable, and not too costumey (unless you add the accessories of course).

As we were prepping for our photo shoot, we found some awesome props that I thought we’d share with you.

Evie Outfit:

Wig – Amazon
Red Jacket – Amazon
Red Gloves – Amazon
Shoes – We used some inexpensive ones off amazon, but I don’t recommend them. They were flimsy and fell apart quickly. Here’s some that look nice – Mila Lady

Mal Outfit:

Wig – Amazon
Descendants Brand Jacket – Amazon
Shoes – Amazon Or if she has a pair of Dr. Martens boots, those would be awesome!
Descendants Brand Necklace – Amazon
Gloves – Don’t buy the Descendants Mal Brand. They were very long and narrow. Any black fingerless gloves should do.

Cohen’s Carlos shirt is from the Disney Store

Here’s a few photos without all the accessories. As you can see, they make a great everyday dress too!

To celebrate the launch of our mermaid dresses, we’ve been crafting! These clothes pin dolls and so fun and super easy! This would make a fun activity for a Mermaid Birthday Party.

We started the project by painting the mermaid. Afterwards we used a fine tip sharpie to draw the eyes and mouth. We used hot clue to put the hair and mermaid sail on. It was a quick and very easy project to do with our kids!

Another Great Puppy Birthday Party

February 25, 20192 Comments

I absolutely love seeing your puppy birthday parties! Sarah Capp, owner of Five.Twenty.Nine Designs hosted the cutest party for her twin girls.

Here’s a look at this fun puppy party!

Invites:

Created using the puppy party printables from Diane Robison Design on etsy. Diane also can create custom prints/invites etc.. if needed.

Party Outfits:

Taylor Joelle Puppy Dresses of course! How fun is it to have dresses that match your invites and decor? We will be restocking the puppy tutu dresses in rust (with short sleeve this time) early March. Swing dresses are available now.

Activities:

This is where it gets so fun! Each guest was able to “adopt a puppy”. Look how many there are to choose from! Then they create a collar for their puppy using colorful beads, and can also decorate their own puppy carrying case.

Party Food!

The cupcakes are topped with these cute mini puppies from Amazon (same ones we used with our Valentines).

Yummy snacks to munch on included: puppy chow, pup corn and dog biscuits.

Such a perfect puppy party! Thanks Sarah for letting us share!

Another Puppy Birthday Party!

We are so excited about featuring the puppy party that Arin Solange put together for her daughter! I just love her creativity.

My favorite thing is the puppy backdrop she put together. Arin cut out puppies for an adorable backdrop that matches our Taylor Joelle puppy shirts.

Puppy Birthday Party

December 18, 2018March 26, 2022Leave a comment

We are so happy to connect with Christina from @littleboholoves on Instagram. Christina threw the most fabulous puppy party, and she’s allowing us to share with you guys! I haven’t posted all the pics from her party, so check out her instagram to see more.

The shirts her girls are wearing are Taylor Joelle Designs. We are out of most of the shirts, but we will launching this same print in swing and tutu dresses! These will be ready in January.

I’m obsessed with the color scheme of the party. The “WOOF” balloons are my favorite. You can purchase rose gold balloons from amazon.

I love how Christina used cut paper to recreate the dogs from the girls shirts.

And how fun and simple is this cake? I love that tiny party hats she’s made for the small dog figurines. Plus the girls can keep those cute cake toppers.

And what’s a puppy party without real live puppies! How epic! I would love to recreate this someday for Cohen’s birthday.

If you are planning a puppy party, keep Taylor Joelle in mind for the perfect puppy dresses! We will also have a boy version of these tees (coming soon).

Vampirina Halloween Costume

October 9, 2018Leave a comment

Cohen has decided that he wants to be Vampirina for Halloween. I totally thought he would have chosen Rapunzel, but after our big birthday party, I’m excited for a change.

unnamed I bought his costume on sale at target – on sale for $16.49. Sweet deal right? And so many people have been asking where his face paint (and arm paint lol) are from. I bought pale blue face paint off amazon

I was concerned when I opened the paint because it was rock hard. As soon as I took a wet paint brush to it, the paint moistened up and went on really easily.

DIY Rapunzel Braid with Fleece Fabric

September 16, 2018September 16, 2018Leave a comment

My son Cohen is turning 5 in 2 weeks, so we have been prepping away for his birthday party. He’s a princess loving boy and his new obsession is Rapunzel.

I wanted to make a braid for each party guest. I looked up some tutorials and most of them involved yarn. I tried to do a sample one and it was trickier that I expected. I knew there had to be a simpler way. Someone sent me a link to one done in fabric at Hanna Andersson, and I thought YES! Fabric should make this project much easier (and cheaper). Each headband costs about $3 to make.

So, I’ve made a video about what I did to make these fleece Rapunzel braids. They will make perfect party favor’s to Cohen birthday guests.

Materials:

Yellow Fleece Fabric – 1.5 yards made 5 headbands. The last two I made were thinner braids since I was getting low on fabric. If you want them all to be thick braids, I would do a little more).
Purple Ribbon – this is for weaving into the braid. I bought a spool at the dollar store and ran out after 2 headbands.
Plastic Headbands – I purchased packs of 2 at the dollar store
Hot Glue
Scissors
Fake Flowers – also purchased at the dollar store.

DIY Unicorn Horn Headband

August 18, 2018Leave a comment

Halloween is approaching and we love to bring you ideas of easy costumes that can be made using Taylor Joelle dresses.

This one is so simple and perfect for your rainbow unicorn loving kid.

Rainbow Unicorn Costume

Materials:

Taylor Joelle Rainbow Stripe Dress
white felt (I had them cut me a 1/4 yard at the fabric store, and I have tons left).
pink felt
cardboard (I used a notebook cover)
hot glue gun
scissors
headband (mine is from the dollar store)
gold pipe cleaner (or gold wire)
stuffing
flowers to decorate

Step 1:

Cover the headband with strips of white felt using hot glue

Step 2:

Create the horn. I pinched down one corner, began rolling into the shape I want and used hot glue to secure as I rolled. Once it was the size I wanted, I cut the bottom to make it an even cone. Next I stuffed the cone with some cotton stuffing (took some from a throw pillow I was planning on tossing).

Step 3:

Wrap the pipe cleaner or wire around the horn. I used dabs of hot glue to secure it. Then, attach the horn to the headband. This time I uses lots of hot glue and fold the sides over the headband.

Step 4:

Cut the unicorn ears out using cardboard and felt. Glue the felt to the cardboard to make it stiff. Then use hot glue to attach the ears to the headband.

Step 5:

Embellish with some fake flowers. Rather than spending a lot of money buying the different colors I need, I bought 1 bunch of white flowers and painted them with spray paint and acrylic paint that we had around the house. Glue the flowers to the headband.

And there you have it. A unicorn headband. My 4 year old son loves it and now is insisting he be a unicorn for Halloween 🙂

These headband would also work great for a unicorn birthday party favor. Or a party activity. You could pre-make the headbands and have the party guest embellish them.
