Member Feature: Painted Butterfly Studio

2009-07-30T08:40:00.000-07:00

WisteriaLane is proud to feature Julie, Designer of Painted Butterfly Studio...and this is one multi-talented South California mama. Not only does Julie design beautiful handpainted totes, she also designs both boy and girl sets and has a knack with applique too...all while working full time and mothering two boys!

Readers might be surprised to know that Julie lives in Southern California in the same house she grew up in, she was once on the show "The Wheel of Fortune" and though she's left handed, she does everything except write and paint with her right hand.

Outgoing, fun and talented are three must-use words when capturing Julie's personality, the designer behind painted butterfly studio's could easily be described as a social butterfly.

Not only is Julie an ebay fave, she also sells her beautiful designs on etsy, here's a quick link.

Fun, Flirty, Fashionable can only describe these darling styles from Alev, the Designer behind Boutique*Nrf*Ny

Readers might be surprised to know that Alev is Turkish, she moved to the United States many, many years ago--after finishing college for advanced studies at Parson college and ended up making New York home after meeting and marrying her husband, the love of her life. Alev is known not only for her unique sewing skills, she says she's also a great listener, "You can tell me all your secrets" and she's sure to keep them safe. After talking with Alev it's easy to see why her friends would confide in her: charming, witty, and easy going is the vibe, though Alev does have a sense of humor too. WisteriaLane is glad to have Alev on board, she's a true team player.

Not only does Alev have a great variety of designs and selection on ebay, you can also find her adorable designs on etsy, here's a quick link.

In honor of Alev's Turkish heritage, we've decided to share a Turkish recipe for Macaroni cake. Macaroni also happens to be an American Fave...much like Alev, it's a perfect blend of both cultures and I can't wait to give it a go, hope you enjoy. :)

Be sure to watch for more Designer Features.
WisteriaLane is also proud to welcome newest member: *LaDesigns* to the WisteriaLane home front! She's a dynamic designer and we're proud to have her on board!

In Honor of Kris's french language skills, we at Wisterialane are sharing a fave French recipe with our readers, hope you enjoy!

French Crepes

What you'll need:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon white sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Your fave fruit topping!

DIRECTIONS
Sift together flour, sugar and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, beat eggs and milk together with an electric mixer. Beat in flour mixture until smooth; stir in melted butter.
Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 2 tablespoons for each crepe. Tip and rotate pan to spread batter as thinly as possible. Brown on both sides and serve hot.
Crepes are delicious when topped with a fave fruit like strawberries or blueberries.

When asked to share three things about herself--that not many on ebay will know, Ann says:

I am a cancer survivor

I play the piano badly

I am 100% Greek but I speak very little Greek

Ann says it's her buyers that keep her on ebay...she just loves them all, "if it weren't for them, I wouldn't be here."
WL appreciates Ann's buyers too--as we love this talented Designer and are so glad she's part of WisteriaLane!

Ann is a wife, mother, grandmother, caregiver to her mother, creative soul and superb seamstress, and I for one am in awe of this amazing Designer's work.

Ann plans on expanding her business in 2009 to include some boy designs as well as home decor...WL can't wait to see what's next from Forever*Young*Boutique...find out more about Ann by clicking here to visit her blog!
