I Love Lucy & Ricky!!!

I Love Lucy & I Love Ricky!

Growing up I Love Lucy was one of my favorite shows! I was crazy in love & did my best to  never miss a rerun episode! Lucy inspired me in so many ways! When I was a little girl I spent time living with my Grandparents in Mexico. We had a small t.v. set that only had 3 channels and I had the choice of watching two actual t.v. shows: Transformers & I Love Lucy. Yes I was hooked on both and still am to this day! Lucy became apart of my life from early on all the way till my teenage years and to the day I became a business woman! Growing up in high school I simply adored her! Every trip to the thrift store was a new adventure to find a big swing polka dot dress or two tone loafers that Ricky always wore! I got the nick name 'Dottie' when I was 14 for all the polka dot clothing I wore! Thank you Lucy! Aside always tuning in to 'I Love Lucy' for all the fashion & hair/makeup I loved so dearly, I really adored the relationship between Ricky & Lucy! Playful,sweet and just funny! I did all the research I could on the pair and every detail always made me feel like I knew them in a way even though I didn't! I have always loved how well they photograph next to one another! Black & Whites of the pair are the ones I hold close to my heart! They always seem to capture a moment not just in time but in love! Lucy & Ricky love!!!!






I was recently watching the 'Lucy' Movie on Netflix & became so inspired to whip up a pair of 'I Love Lucy' inspired Beauty Queen Ballet flats! Lucy's birthday is coming up Aug.6th So I felt it would be great to honor her birth in a very 'wearable' way! Enjoy! All ordering & information is on the bottom of this blog! Check out is quick & simple! International: Please message me before ordering for shipping rates & check out process: sweetdevinedesign@live.com
Thank You Beauty Queens for the love & support!

Lately I have been a busy bee in & out of the Brown Magic Paint Co. studio & getting everything ready for Sweet Devine Design! I always have Netflix in the background while I work and I was so excited to see the Lucy movie was listed for instant viewing! Watching Lucy inspired me & all the creative juices started following! I wanted to design & paint a pair of Lucy & Ricky Beauty Queen Ballet Flats! I ran to Mando told him my idea & of course he said yes just come up with a sketch & he will paint them first change he gets! I was so excited over the next day I worked really hard to get the sketches just right & to stay true to the original cartoon of the pair!
Watching 'Lucy' & hitting the sketch book!

Drop off at Mando's desk & paired with a blank pair of B.Q Ballet Flats!
