More Frames Created

2009-03-06T10:30:00.000-08:00

Even more frames to add to the collection. These frames are hand painted and decorated with various themes. Custom orders for any frames are always welcome. You can contact me at orijanelcreations@gmail.com. More and more ideas for items keep coming, so get yours while it's still here. Only one is usually made of each although it can be duplicated, but not exactly, to keep it "Ori-Janel".

New Frames in Ori-Janel Creations

2009-02-25T14:43:00.000-08:00

New Item added to the already fabulous Ori-Janel Creations items! These frames are 4" x 6" photo sized and come with the inner decoration, so you can choose to keep the matching paper in it, or even put a smaller photo in it and have the background design to keep it looking great!

These specific ones are made with deco rub decorations and sealed with decoupage sealer so that they cannot rub off. Hand painted colors to match the decorations. Sawtooth hanger on the back to hang on the wall, small wooden nub to hold it up straight to set on a table. These are new and very ori-janel (original). I love them and have already sold a few. Get yours, only one of a kind made of each.

"The Three Sisters" Cigar Box Purse Series

2009-02-19T10:21:00.001-08:00

I made these purses recently and named them after me, and my 2 sisters. The one purse "Lynae" is my middle name and didn't want to name it Janel, so it's the Lynae Purse.

Each one of these purses reminded me of my sister, so i had to name them after my sister's of course. My sister, Julie, likes the colors pink and black (as seen on her website http://www.fabulousfindsboutique.com/)

The other one reminded me of my sister, Jenny, whome likes retro and artistic type of colors, so natrually I named this purse after her as well.

The red and black one are my favorite colors. I wear these colors in my clothes, my main colors which are black, greay, red, and white. But I also work in an office, so these are more likely to be "professional" type colors. But thru the years seem to have grown on me. Red is my alltime favorite color, but it am an Aries.

Me and my sisters form "The Three Sisters" that came out to be this wonderful purse series. We do have one brother, but I don't think he'd care to have a purse named after him. LOL. I love and appreciate my sisters and I hope they see this as one of those ways of telling them.

thanks for reading!

The Perfect Valentine's Day Present

2009-01-07T08:27:00.000-08:00

Valentine's Day's Perfect Gift! Sachets with hearts and jewels on them saying all of the things you'd like to say to your adored one, but this says them for you! What could say them in a better way than a gift. Comes in your choice of scent. These are not yet stuffed due to you picking out that scent so that you get what you like instead of something already made that you wouldn't. Valentine's Day comes once a year and these are only 1 of each that gets made, so none are duplicated exactly and like which makes them Ori-Janel. Happy Valentine's Day to come!

Ori-Janel Creations Sachets

2008-12-18T13:50:00.001-08:00

Above is an expample of a custom sachet that I had made. Custom as in someone bought the sachet and I finished it for them in the scent of their choice. I use all natural oils that smell devine. Scents I have come in a range of available scents such as:

Lavender
Vanilla
Gardenia
Sandalwood

Rosewood

Jasmine
Green Tea

Warm Sugar Cookies

Linen

Vanilla Lavender

Rosemary

Scents vary of availability due to a high demand in that scent. Most popular seems to be Lavender at the moment. Once the sachets are done they look like the picture at the very top of the page. They can be made several different ways, some simple, some with embellishments, etc. We can also attach a ribbon on the sachet to hang it places as well. I gave one to my boss for christmas and her whole office and then some smelled of Jasmine! These scents are strong and last a long time. I love making these sachets, because I just enjoy making them and that they smell soooooooooo good. I love smelly good things and always have. If you are interested in any type of sachet see what we have on this site http://www.dollfacejanel.etsy.com/ or email us at orijanelcreations@gmail.com

J Studios Pottery

2008-12-01T12:58:00.000-08:00

My sister Jenny since high school art class has been doing pottery, and is very good at it. Her husband Casey also does pottery along with my 2 nephews who are young, but getting a head start on their pottery skills. :D Check out their pottery on http://jstudiopots.shutterfly.com/. Future website to come! I just can't say how much my family has creativeness, and I'm glad I've finally caught up to it!

Inspiration all Around me.

2008-11-26T12:58:00.001-08:00

So I grew up in a small town in Texas and a very creative and artistic family. My oldest sister, Julie, has sewn almost all of her life and is now making some wonderful creations of her own! Check them out at http://fabulousfindsboutique.com/.

I never thought that "I" could personally have any type of creative bone in my body. At age 31, I've seen to have had a boost of creativeness thanks to my friend, designer Janese, whom sews and creats her own clothing line. Check her out here at: http://www.thomasscelli.com/ I am aslo featured on her intro page as one of her models, wearing her designs.

With so much creative influence in my genes and around me, how can I not but spontaneously become artistic.

THE DOLLFACE JANEL MODEL

2008-11-26T11:54:00.000-08:00

Yes, i also do some modeling in my spare time as well. I am a busy person! Along with my full time job, modeling, husband, and sewing, lets just say there's not much spare time. I love it all. I have met many wonderful people thru modeling and have had a chance to do some fundraisers and have also experienced some help thru my modeling network personally! It's a great world out there. Although I have had some setbacks that make me doubt the modeling world, nothing is perfect. Check out my modeling myspace account!
