Little Goofballs




Small children do funny things.....




So the other night Audrey fell asleep very early & Sydney wandered into the bathroom by herself. She was MIA and very quiet for a few minutes - when I went to go look for her I found she had put on just about every headband I own - as necklaces.....very pretty!


Then Friday we were outside enjoying the nice weather, riding bikes & scooters around in the driveway when Audrey came tearing out wearing our rose cone on her head. She could not see where she was going & I am pretty sure that was a lot of the fun. She rode all around with that thing on her head....




Silly girls....they bring a smile to my face everyday

The Week in Review

So it was a busy yet somehow uneventful week. I got most of my holiday shopping all done yesterday - IT FEELS GOOD!!! Just a couple more things to get & I know what I need so it will be nice & easy. But I do still have my holiday crafting to do. My mom will say I'm a procrastinator, but I say I work better under pressure! I know what I want to make & will get it done after my 2 upcoming shows.

Speaking of the shows I have 2 big ones in November. The Holiday MarketPlace in West Bend is next weekend already. I have been stamping away & have a ton of jewelry stamped. I still need to polish it & I have a boat load of sewing to do next week. No sweat.......

On a happy-happy note Bath & Body Works carried a scent called "Sandalwood Rose" in their aromatherapy line. It was my absolute favorite so of course they discontinued it. I found it last night (after over a year of looking) at the B & BW Outlet. I was in heaven! I bought a bottle of the shower gel & lotion. I was thinking I should have bought 5 bottles of each, but I was out holiday shopping......not for myself.

Well I am off to work my half day today & am going home and will be trying a new project (because I have SO much extra time for new projects!) If all goes well there will be a rockin' new girl onesie at the show next week.

Happy Friday all!!

I'll Get You My Pretty!!!



Here is my Mom's Wicked Witch Costume. I am proud of her - she made it with NO PATTERN. That is just crazy talk for her! And it turned out great.

Trick or Treat


We went out for trick-or-treating last night (and to our Downtown Halloween party of Thursday)


Audrey went as Harry Potter and Sydney was a little kitty. My mom also dressed up as the wicked witch last night, including black dress & care, green face, wig & scary cane with a crow. I took pictures of her with her own camera so I'll have to get some from her.


Here is Harry & Kitty


I hope you all had a great night too


(after all the fun with the kids we went to see Zombieland. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be)

Pretty Ribbon Chains


I now have lovely ribbon chains/cording for the pendants. They are made from 1 piece of ribbon and 3 of matching cording. They have a lobster clasp and are adjustable 16-18"


I have them in white, grey/silver and black.

Here is a photo of one on it's way to Anthology - State Street Madison, WI
