A Bit of Velvet and a Dash of Lace

If you’ve never heard of Magnolia Pearl… you’re in for a real treat for the eyes!
Magnolia Pearl (aka Robin Pearl Brown), who lives in Texas, started from very humble beginnings. With her father being an artist, and her mother a gypsy, her home was filled with creativity. Her parents were always encouraging her to creatively express herself, but it wasn’t until her mother passed away, that she took that very special first step that would launch her into a brand new career!
You might remember her from her beautiful handbags… dripping with velvet & lace, or her beautiful pantaloons and other garments edged in lace. Whatever you remember… one thing that you will always do once coming in contact with Magnolia Pearl is… remember her!
With her new book on it’s way “A Bit of Velvet and a Dash of Lace”, we will get an even bigger look into the life & home of this very creative gal!
I thought you might like to get a little glance into the life & home of Magnolia Pearl!

Magnolia Pearl is featured in the April issue of Country Living magazine.
Pearl is a beautiful person and will likley have her own TV show one day. Thanks
I love Magnolia Pearl’s style! It has given me inspiration for my wedding. I want to do a sort of Victorian – Hippie – Fairy – Country theme and I have gotten great ideas from her work! Thank you:) Also, that “sac – religious” segment is hilarious.
I love this book. I have magazines with Magnolia Pearl featured. It is so inspiring. I love her ideas and she has really inspired me.
What a free spirit! Loved the videos, and the victorian look is just adorable! Gives me inspiration!
