Fabric Mart Fabricistas

I have something special for you on the blog today!  Meet my friend Grace from You by Grace is here to show you some of her favorite trends for this season. I met Grace through Char Photography and loved her personal style from the very first minute. I was thrilled with excitement when I saw that Grace was going to be working with Char as a stylist. I began following her blog and Pinterest immediately! I highly recommend you do too! Hi, My name is Grace. I am a stylist. I am passionate about creating, fashion, color, art, and beauty. As I tend to follow the the fashion trends, I personally feel that fashion isn’t fashion without putting your own twist to it. Owning what you wear and how you wear it. If it is adding something you love to a “trend” or minimizing the “trend” to make it your own, I feel that is what makes it YOURS. I love originality, and I believe that is what makes true style. I work for a phenomenal Photographer, Char ( http://www.charphotography. com

Pumpkin decorating has been taken to new levels in the 21st Century! I'm only 26, but when we decorated pumpkins "back in the day", we either painted them or carved out the basic eyes, nose and mouth. Today there are so many different supplies and fresh ideas, that the traditional pumpkin almost seems boring.
