No longer Kasha Designs but same great products

I have taken some time off to clear up some things in my life and business. I have chosen to get away from the name Kasha Designs and go with something that speaks more of me. Krista Marie Designs, I started Kasha with a friend and it just did not work out as I was doing all of the work anyway. With Krista Marie Designs, I am still designing what I love but there has been some add ons. I started designing and up cycling shoes, I just got a new dress form and making my own clothing line, once I become better at it I can take orders and will most likely be able to work with sizes 6-14. Jewelry is still selling on my fanpage which the link is still http://www.facebook.com/kashadesigns I would just hate to change everything after getting all my fans etc but the title is Krista Marie Designs. I am setting up a new online store I hope to have up by this weekend if not the start of next week. I am in the process of  building a portfolio as well for the Academy of Art University in San Fransisco, a very prestigious art school I hope to attend to get my bachelors in fashion design. So I just wanted to share with all of you what was going on and I'm happy to still be doing what I love and adding on to it. Here are some pictures of the new items I have made. Right now prices are listed on the fanpage and I can use paypal if anyone would like to order anything. Thank you for the love and support... Here's to the future.

Personally designing/upcycling shoes

With my love of fashion i have decided to come across in adding something amazing to Kasha Designs. Iam up cycling my old shoes or shoes I can get a hold of. So yeah  you can say a shoe designer. One of a kind and a friend has even asked me to upcycle a pair of her old not so pretty shoes anymore. This is going to be so much fun as I can design an outfit with shoes and accessories and have a fully complete line now. This was the first part and they turned out great. I can not wait to get started with even more.

This is the shoe before. I have had these for some time and they were just too bland for me. Also the other shoe the strap broke and I did not just want to get rid of them.

After. My mind and hands went to work and I got this now vamped up wedge. All fabric was from what I had laying in my sewing room and rhinestones add some bling to it. I really love them and will look great this spring and summer.

 Not bad for my first attempt. I'm excited to do more and will be doing themed shoes as well. I may be doing a Nicki Minaj or Katy Perry inspired shoe : ) Every so often I'll find something themed to design the shoe around.

Kasha in the Dare 2 Vogue beauty box

That's right I will try and have a Kasha Designs item in each of the monthly beauty boxes that will be released monthly from Dare 2 Vogue. The beauty boxes will have 4-10 fashion and beauty items in them and so many will be released monthly. Be sure to check out the website http://www.dare2vogue.webs.com that is where you can buy the bags. I am undecided on if I want to make balli rings or a some hair clips to fill in the very first beauty box that will be launched Feb 1st 12 am central standard time. Well I have to make my decision soon.. I am leaning more toward balli rings.
