Weekend Recap

October 25, 2009

I felt like I got to enjoy Fall in all its festiveness this weekend:) Here’s a little recap:

I got ordered these lovely boots from target …. Just the color, style, and height I was looking for.

Went to a Stamp/Card Making workshop with my sister. You can find some really cool supplies here.

We had so much fun….. Everything is set up for you and ready to go. I love creating Seasonal cards. Maybe you will be one of the lucky ones to get these in the mail from me;)

I got my little boys Halloween costume on ebay and I couldn’t help but try it on for a sneak preview..

Lastly, my husband made some incredible caramel popcorn and cider for our pumpkin carving (will post on that later in the week). Just had to share the yummy picture and recipe :

Did you have a good weekend? I am looking forward to a full week of Fall Goodness! I have a craft fair on Halloween so its a crazy week. So if you don’t hear from me you know why! 🙂

Latest Design Work….Input Needed!

October 21, 2009

So this is a sneak preview of my up and coming listing for the Ladies Accessories Line in my etsy shop. This is a “Special Occasion Ivory Bloom” piece attached to a clip that has multi-use options. I need your input. Which way would you wear it? I want to feature it the best way I can so I would love your opinion! Here are a few photos to display the options. Sash, sash bow, hair clip, or shoe clip. Tell me what you think! Have a lovely day!

Fabric Find Results

October 21, 2009

Remember when I posted about my fun fabric finds? Well here are a few pictures of what I did with it! I wish there was more time in the day because I have millions of ideas I want to add to the women’s accessories line in my shop, but keeping up with orders, graphic design work, art lessons, and being a mom seem to zap the time in my day in an instant:) I am blessed though because I love every minute. My beautiful sister Maria modeled these for me. Thanks Sister:) Have a lovely mid week day!

Plum Polish

October 20, 2009

I can’t get enough of the color Plum right now. I realize the last few things I have bought are all this color:) This fall season you can find some delicious shades of plum to change up your nail bottle collection. Its time to say goodbye to the bright pinks and say hello to this season’s elegant new shade. You can find a variance of this color just about everywhere. The drugstores have pretty comparable colors at half the price too! Here are a few I thought were eye popping:)

From top to bottom:

Mac-“Baby Goth Girl”

Nars-“Tokaido Express”

Essie – “It’s Genius”

Get Your Hair Dressed for the Weekend

October 16, 2009

I don’t know about you, but something about Fridays always makes me want to wear my favorite shirt or try a new fashion trend. As I was looking for ideas for some new headbands to add to my shop, I found some trend setting celebs who really know how to wear their Hair Wear! Few people can pull off the hippie look, but if its worn with the right headband and the right way it can be classy. Here are just a few ideas of how you can dress up your hair for the weekend fun. Now if only we had professional stylists like these celebs;)

Paperie Goodness

October 14, 2009

I have a fetish for paper goodies. I guess it is because I am a huge fan of snail mail, birthday wrapping, and handmade cards…things that make life personal. This amazing new shop has all sorts of fun little somethings to make all of the above that much better;) The name is Nice Package Shop . Check it out!!
