Weekends Over Time to Work

WOW, Monday went by quickly. I had Monday Brain all morning! It took two cups of strong coffee this morning to function. (Monday Brain is when you do something and swear it was done, but check and it is either not done, or it is done and you will, and I MEAN will be up in 5 minutes again thinking "did I do that??") yeah :)

BUT!! the exciting thing! My new business cards came!!! I paid extra to get them here ASAP because I have been busy (new job) and I wasn't sure what to get. But I found these amazing bird (wow, yeah. . . shocker I know) cards which are ADORABLE!!! And they go great with my metal bird-card holder.


Moo is an awesome creative site! I think the finished product is amazing! Gotta love them!!!


I have been busy, so therefore I would like to share what I have been INSANELY working on for the past two months. Yes, that is right, this Sunday, I will be in my first ever art show. Super excited! I have a ton done! But I still have a lot to do. I have four more clutch bags to finish, hopefully 3 more coffee sleeves, earrings are done. I'm working on more necklaces, and ruffle shirts.
Okay, so it will be Nation Cherry Festival here in N. Michigan, hence the cherry fabrics. I hope that this stuff will sell big time! I am making it especially for this occasion, (so it better!!)
I'll have like 17 some clutches :)

Sample of my cherry earrings!!
Yeah, that's a lot I know! Gotta be prepared. I think I have like 60 or so earrings. Should that be enough? I hope so, cause I ran out of button supplies hahaha. OF course my display won't look like this, I am just storing them like that for now. :) There are several duplicates, so I'll be able to put those away until they sell.

So that's what I have been working on like a mad woman. :)

Busy Week and Two to Go

I have been away, I know sorry everyone! But I have a great excuse. I started my new job on Wednesday and it's going well. I am trying to learn as much as I can since this is something very new to me. Well, I've been an office assistant for many years, but this a completely new field to me. :)

Also, yesterday in the mail, I got my notice for my art show. I know where my booth will be now and what time I have to be there at. I am SUPER!!! excited! I want to take some pictures of all of the items that I have. I have been working hard to get a lot done now before the event. I think I am about 75% complete. So with TWO weeks left to prepare I am feeling a bit of the "crunch" time coming. But I am know I will be set.

However, I am not sure I am ready for July yet? WOW where did 2011 go?? I am really glad we have gotten a lot done for the wedding this month, because July is gonna be crazy! Seems like something every weekend. But it's gonna be a blast!

Well, I am off!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend! and Happy Fathers Day!

Happy Monday Everyone! The sun is shining and the warm weather is soon to return!! YEAH!!!

Tom and I went hiking yesterday! So much fun, we went to a place just west of us and found a great trail all wooded and then we got to a look-out point over Lake Michigan. I love living in this state! However, I am a goof and forgot my camera. But we just decided we'll have to do it again!
We then ventured to the Cherry Republic store. If you come to my "hood" this store is a must!! We got some Cherry BBQ Sauce (really good) and some Cherry Hard Cider and a Cherry Ginger Ale. Oh man! We ate well last night!
