“Earlier this year, I was out of work due to a back strain and frankly, I had a lot of time on my hands. I used the time to read, to research, and to reflect. It turned out to be both physically and mentally therapeutic. During this time, Loralyn Designs was born.

My Goal: Design unique jewelry and gifts incorporating metal and color .
The Challenge: How to put my personal mark on items 
I was down at my workbench one day and it hit me; Washers, nuts, stainless steel, oh that makes sense! The next challenge was the color. After a lot of research I discovered a modeling material called friendly plastic. It is easy to use, non-toxic and enabled me make my own colors."

“A little background on myself:
My real passion is using my hands to create and design. I am thankful to have had a mom that encouraged crafting and creativity from an early age. She taught me the beauty of handmade items from sewing to painting and drawing, gift wrapping, jewelry making, and home decorations. At age 8, I was selling my jewelry door to door (OK, I was selling my fashion plate color drawings too). At 13 my mom invited me to join her in selling my 3D plastic canvas Christmas ornaments which did pretty well. I still have a few I put on my tree every year.
I branched out to woodworking and home improvement projects in my 20s. Now in my late 30s, I have discovered a new passion with metal crafts.”

Super Love Cashmere


Hey guys! I have something awesome to tell you about today! I mean, really awesome!! 

Cashmere Undies (adjustable string bikini style) - Yellow

Cashmere panties! Made from recycled cashmere these are green, but that is a mere bonus when you compare it to how they feel on!  

Cashmere Panties (side ties for your perfect fit) Stripes

Yeah, that is right! Theresa, the amazing girl behind SuperLoveCashmere (no pun intended), well, she sent me a pair of the panties to try out.


Oh my gosh! I always knew that cashmere was soft, but I never considered how it would feel against bare skin. Ladies! It is amazing! 


Soft and warm and just downright cozy. You will never, ever wear anything more comfortable! Plus! they are super cute, I mean, just look at the pictures! 


The week that my panties came, the furnace was out at work because of a gas leak and we could not use the space heaters because we were having electrical issues too. I wore these babies to work and never felt the cold! How amazing is that?!


"Wearing Cashmere Panties Make You Happy!
Every girl who slips these panties on, instantly notices how great they feel on the skin.

* The softest panties ever! Must wear to truly appreciate how wonderful they feel.
* Adjustable tie sides that allow for your custom fit and perfect fitting panties!
* Made from Upcycled Cashmere.
* Simply put, these are the "Happiest Panties on Earth".
* Treat yourself or give as a special gift.
* All panties come with complimentary gift wrap.
BENEFITS OF CASHMERE:
* Softer than cotton
* Keeps you warm when it's cold and you cool when it's warm.

That is what Theresa has to say, but let me tell you! It is the truth! Best Panties EVER!!!! And you can get yourself a pair, or ask for them for Christmas!
