Cute new clothing range is now here!

It has been in the making for a while now...and finally I have a few piece to share with you all.

I will be creating items inspired by my three daughters and their friends. To begin with there will be a larger range of girls outfits - however with many of my friends having boys - I know there is a real need for unique boys clothing too.

From glamorous dresses to funky shorts and tops - my li'l luv'd ones clothing range will have it all...and it wont stop there - I plan to make complete outfits - from hair accessories to shoes and everything between.

If you see a look you like then you will be able to source the lot from one place.

My website is also being revamped to be a fully functional cart site - until it is up and running there are links to all my online stores http://aptcreationz.co.nz/

fabric button jewellery

My girls love jewellery at the moment. as most little princesses do. And even though I don't mind the old 'plastic fantastic'....there is something special about handmade treasures.

A while ago I made a hand painted babushka necklace, and am now expanding my jewellery range to include domino pendants and fabric covered button necklaces. As well as some children's rings and bracelets to add to the mix.

I am focusing on children's prints to begin with, but will be making some for other 'big kids' like myself soon .

These new creations will be available in my little kiwis nest an felt stores.

New clothing for APT

I have been designing and making clothing for my own children for the past 5 years, and have sold them for a year with a friend of mine under the label 'made it baby'. It is now time to bring some of the fashion side of my creativity home to A.P.T. CreatioNZ.

Taking influence and inspiration from past and present, I hope to create a true mixture of classic style and modern flare.

One of my favourite periods is the 1920's, which is where I have drawn inspiration for one of my first little dresses. In true layered style, this modern 'flapper' dress is just as at home with the Charleston as it is punk rock!

To add to the look I am also working on some headbands with flower details like the one here, and will possibly add some co ordinating ballet style pumps and fabric jewellery.


This is the first stage of the 'APT flapper' , all cut out and ready to sew. I may need to tweak the pattern, as this is my first draft - but once I have mastered it I will be making the design in a few colours and sizes.

Black will be the next colour I try, as I would love to see the drama of the contrast in my product shots.

I will post more photos of this gold version once its finished (even if it has things I would change).
