I Do

It was 15 years ago today that I said those two words

I Do

I married a wonderful man and can honestly say I am a very happy wife!
Happy Anniversary Honey.

Shopping isn't all that fun....

The older I get the less I like shopping. I only enjoy it if I shop online.....no crowds, no getting out in the cold, etc. Today we went shopping to pick up a few more things for Christmas. I stopped off at the Dollar Tree store (doing some quick stocking stuffer shopping) and well this lady had one of those phone head sets on and she was talking while walking around. She was also wearing sunglasses in the store. Well I walked around her and went on my way to the other side of the store. This lady apparently was asking me a question....I didn't know!! She followed me to the other side of the store and said "Lady I was asking you a question about something?" So I turned and said "Oh I am sorry, I didn't know you were talking to me!" She then said "Yes, I figured you didn't, because you just walked on" then she turned and walked away. At that moment I decided it was time to go home and put my PJ's on and shop online.

*{To the lady at the Dollar Tree store....Please remove your sunglasses when entering a store so when you do have to ask a question, you can make eye contact with someone. And please don't wear your phone head set in the store so I won't think you are talking on the phone}*

Okay, now I have done a little venting I am ready to just sit and wrap some gifts!

Happy Birthday!

So today is my hubby's birthday.
He can do whatever he wants ..............no "honey do" list for him today.

A Custom Order

Today I finished up the cutest little girls purse. It was a custom order for a lady. Her daughter is turning 6 and she loves little purses.

Cute huh??

Playing Dress Up

Okay..okay...not really the dress up you probably thought of. It's not with clothes, it's paper and glue. I love writing down ideas that pop into my mind so I am always buying writing pads or notebooks. Well I saw this little tutorial how to dress up your writing pads over on Just A Girl. These would be fun to do and give as a gift too. Do a few in different sizes and team it up with some pins and pencils for a quick gift.

Here's how I did mine.

First get your supplies together.....

Writing pads

Glue stick

Scissors

Pencil

Decorative paper

Take your paper and line it up with the top part of the pad. And fold in place and flip over.

Then I traced the pad onto the pad. (You can leave it a little long and just fold over the top if you would like.)

Cut out the shape.

I used a simple glue stick and rubbed lots of glue on the front of the pad where I would be placing the paper.

Ta Da!! Cute writing pads are all done. It's pretty simple and fast.

Christmas Brooch

Today I got a little creative! Looking through my closet I noticed that I am just a plain kinda girl. I don't wear anything that is wild or loud. I have lots of plain colored shirts.....but hey, that's okay....!! I started thinking what could I do to "dress" up a plain shirt and decided to make a cute little Christmas Brooch.

I think it's cute!

I hope to make many more.....even thinking about doing some for Spring/Summer and add to the website.

Buy an Apron or Pocket Pouch and get.....
