  • Awww. My costume studio in Kansas in the NOTO Arts District was a cosy little place where I loved to work always!
  • This couple commissioned me to make their wedding clothes. Lovely to work with and I got to choose fabulous fabrics!
  • This ensemble was a commission based on a movie - 3 Musketeers. It;s all leather but I have since re-created it in suede
  • I love a nice drapey 30s gown! I did this one for the PA Shakespeare Festival many years ago. Still lovely!
  • Elizabethan Renaissance doublets are a chance to really shine. I love doing the research to find perfect details.

I build costumes and corsets and couture gowns for you!

I'm thrilled to have an Etsy shop--a place where I can connect with people who want unique, high-quality costumes and couture.
Costume Design is my main pastime. I love all periods. Mostly I love working with all sorts of different colors and textures of fabric. I can bring to life your drawings of a Cosplay character or recreate something you've seen in a movie. What I love doing most is DESIGNING something original or making my own version of a classic.

I started my freelance career through my friend Heather at verymerryseamstress.com. She hired me to design a line of men's doublets and tights. I now do her corsets, ruffs and jewelry as well. From time to time she'll get a commission for something outside her box like Shrek or Dumbledore or Padme's Boat Dress. I began to do more and more commissions until it was necessary to have my own studio space.

After my recent move to Memphis I am back to having my studio in my home but at least I have a whole room dedicated to it and there's plenty of room. I'm waiting to get the commission for an Elvis Suit!

I began working with semi-precious gemstones several years ago when I had an opportunity to be part of a crafts show at my local community college art gallery. I made up a bunch of bracelets and earrings. I've since expanded to include Renaissance Jewelry as the perfect accessory to your Ren Faire Garb.

The de-constructed tshirts are just a fun way to play around with tshirts you may not otherwise wear. I started by making them so they would fit better. Unisex tshirts don't fit a real woman very well so I cut them up and added design panels and ruched up the sides and sleeves. It was fun. Now I have several that I would love to sell to others.

Welcome to Gypsy Dream Studios. All of my designs are unique because every stone, bead, and bauble is unique....just like you. I particularly love pairing the different colors and textures for a different outcome each time. If there is something you like but wish it had pearls or came in green, for example, then drop me a line and we'll see what we can come up with.

Accepted payment methods

Accepts Etsy Gift Cards and Etsy Credits
Returns and exchanges
I gladly accept returns and exchanges
Contact me within: 14 days of delivery
Ship items back within: 30 days of delivery
I don't accept cancellations
But please contact me if you have any problems with your order.
The following items can't be returned or exchanged
Because of the nature of these items, unless they arrive damaged or defective, I can't accept returns for:
  • Custom or personalized orders
  • Perishable products (like food or flowers)
  • Digital downloads
  • Intimate items (for health/hygiene reasons)
Returns and exchange details
Refunds will be issued only on damaged items if notified within 10 days of receipt. If it's a simple repair...if a dangle has come un-dangled or a clasp doesn't hook or a string breaks send it back to me and I'm happy to fix it.
If you change your mind, or don't want the item anymore, or break up with the girl you bought it for....sorry, no refund.
I always try to photograph each item in its best, most accurate lighting so you can really see what you are getting.

For hygienic reasons, refunds on earrings will NOT be issued.
Payment
My design studio is in Florida. If you are in Florida then I have to charge state tax.

For custom commissions I take 50% non-refundable deposit before beginning. I like to take photos along the way to let you know of my progress with your commission. I'll send you a finished shot before I ship it to you so you have a chance to say "HEY that was supposed to be red..." or whatever. Fixing a problem is so much easier if I haven't shipped it to you yet :)

I'll give you guidelines for taking measurements so that we get the best fit possible. I always recommend having a professional take your measurements...or at least someone who has been sewing for a while. Sometimes, even with great measurements your custom garment may need to be altered a little to be perfect. This is still cheaper than return shipping and easily done at your dry cleaners. But, most of the time my customers are perfectly happy with the fit!
Shipping
I will always ship your items as soon as I can. For jewelry that's usually within 24 hours of receiving your payment. (Unless it is a custom commission which can take up to 6-8 weeks.) I'll package them in a manner that will assure their safe arrival to you. I love to recycle so I'm very likely to use and reuse all packing materials as long as possible. If you would like your items sent to a "giftee" I am happy to put them in a gift box with gift wrap for $5, and make sure they don't arrive in an embarrassing envelope with 3 crossed out previous addresses.

If you want to pay extra for expedited shipping, I'm happy to send it however you choose. Otherwise I love the US Postal Service and their flat rate priority service.
Additional policies and FAQs
I love to make custom orders and historic or vintage re-creations so let me know what you are looking for and we can create a new work of art together!

I accept wholesale inquiries as well. Want to sell my jewelry in all 500 of your shops? Sign me up!
