My Sisters..... and the incredible Holly Petersen Designs

Happy Wednesday everyone!

I thought I'd share some fun family DIY/sewing/crafts stuff today.

I have two little sisters, (if you didn't already know).

Both are totally incredible when it comes to design and creative talent. 

A couple months after I started blogging, I asked them to both blog with me, but they both have full-time jobs, plus businesses, and it would have just been too much for them. 

My youngest sister I redesigned a bedroom for.  You can find the Room Redo for $70 HERE
She is a fabulous painter and DIYer. 
You can see her art work above the bed (pictured below). 
I will have to snap some other pictures of her art work and post them, but today's post is on a whim, so I don't have any others. I will have to do a "sister-post #2" about her. 


My other sister owns her own business called Holly Petersen Designs. 


She creates custom athletic apparel and swimwear. Mostly for fitness show competitors. 
She makes the most incredible suits!




These pictures I copied off her facebook page, so they aren't great quality, but you can see the rhinestone work she does is really awesome! 


Check out the bling on the one below! 



Can you imagine laying all those rhinestones!? Incredible! 
She obviously has all the sewing skills of the family!


So if you know someone who needs custom fitness apparel, you can contact her on her facebook page
She is beautiful inside and out, and I love her to pieces. She is due with her first baby in Oct.....hence my Pinterest nursery pinboard. :)



We were visiting her a couple months ago and I snapped some pictures of her latest creations. 

Her DIY wall art. This picture is probably 6' x 3'. It's HUGE and looks really cool in her sewing room!



...and check out this head piece she made. It would be BEAUTIFUL for a wedding!


Gorgeous huh!

I keep encouraging her to start an Etsy shop!

So there is some family creativity for ya. I just felt like sharing it today.

Now back to cleaning the basement for the house sale. I'm almost finished deep cleaning the basement. I have a couple new room reveals, and a couple wall art pieces coming your way. I advertised having it on the market by the 15th...can I do it?.....I'm not sure, but I'm be pulling some late nights trying!

  1. She sure does make some amazing bathing suits and what a pretty headpiece! She's much younger than I expected...she's a cutie.
