Meet Tina Ledbetter, Artist of the Modern Attitudes Collection

Posted by McKenzie on August 5, 2011 | No Comments

Ever wish you had a little fairy with you at the mall that said, “Life’s Short, Buy the Shoes!”? Well with the Modern Attitudes collection, from Tina Ledbetter, you can carry that little fairy with you.. on your shirt, on your purse or anyplace you can embroider!  Read Tina Ledbetter’s bio below and click on the pictures to view the entire collection.

After graduating from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles, Tina Ledbetter had every intention of starting her career in the Fashion Industry. Venturing off course a bit, she has never looked back.

Her first job was at a small studio as a production artist/logo designer. Then after getting married, and three kids in three and a half years, she decided to make extra money crafting; crafting led to decorative painting.  Designing her own patterns and then painting the designs on her kid’s wagons, furniture, sweat shirts, she even hand painted gift wrap, too.  Eventually she bought a scroll saw and painted wood cut outs. She sent her new wood patterns to a few craft magazines who bought the patterns! From there she created decorative painting books, delved into scrapbooking, cross-stitch kits, home décor, and other ventures until pursuing the licensing where new doors have discovered the unlimited talent of Tina Ledbetter.
