Takin' a Vacation...

Okay, I'm not really going anywhere, but i'm taking a short break to regroup and refocus...Things at work have been CRAZY busy, Nick (the oldest) is on summer break, and the baby....well, he DEMANDS constant attention. The poor guy has been teething so he's been extra fussy. :(

So just for a little while, I'll be a shopper on Etsy...In fact, I just bought this gorgeous purse on Etsy...i've had my eye on it for quite sometime and decide just a few days ago that NOW is the time to spoil myself a bit! Syl2830's store has the cutest and affordable handmade purses!!! I love her bags!!!

It's been a great week for me...Yay God, for making all things possible!!! I've had an increase in orders this week, worked with GREAT people to create customized pieces for them, and received VERY sweet emails from buyers, and was even featured in another blog!!! I've been quite busy, but it's the "good" kind of busy...I'm having such a great time!!!

Sick babies, back hurts, and MORE STUFF ON ETSY!

Yes, i'm experiencing a multitude of things right now...Nick was sick during the week...he of course passed it on to Chase who is sick...my back is killing me...but i've managed to post a boat load of new items onto Etsy. I think God gave me a zap of extra energy this week. I'm not sure how I would have made this far without him. Yay God!

So while Chase is napping I thought I would use this time to ONE, update my blog (sorry peeps), and TWO post new items on Etsy.

I'm excited about this one...

But you never know...I design like a crazy person, I really don't have a "technique"...I just throw things together that I think will be pretty.

What a fun weekend!!!

What an exhausting and fun weekend!!! I wish the weekend didn't have to end.

I like my new packaging...

I really like my new packaging...It's sort of my "thing"...packaging is SO important to me. Yes, it takes me a little more time to wrap it, but I think the end result is well worth it!
