Moustache T-shirt

Friends! I am so excited!! I have been so lucky and fortunate to have been making some sales on Etsy. Its so thrilling. I have sold a couple of handmade cards at the beginning of this year but my moustache t-shirts are selling really well. I'm envisioning lots of great people all over the US (and Canada!) running around in my creation. Its pretty awesome!

Check them out if you haven't had a chance :)

Grandpas

Morning Bloggitettes-

I just finished my morning coffee and I'm seriously bummed that it is empty..Sigh. I wish I had gotten a venti instead of a grande. Oh wells! Lately I've been obsessed with old grandpa men. I love them. I just want to adopt them all! It makes me sad when they are alone! So heres a picture of my grandpa. I miss him so much and think of him often.

This is a perfect example of him. Happy with a car. He used to work on the cars and I would just watch and talk to him. I was probably sooo annoying but he always entertained me.



This is my other grandpa. One of my favorite pictures of him. They look like they had such a great outing that day.



Cheers to the grandpas that make us who we are!

Morning

Hi Kids-

This morning its pretty crisp outside and I'm in the mood to wrap up in some luxurious sweater. The bummer part of it is that by noon it will be 80 some degree's and too hot for a sweater but one can dream about crisp mornings that continue into the day!

Like this outfit from Anthropologie would be perfect for a fall Northwestern Day.

Also, lately, I've been lusting over an Orla Kiely Suitcase..LOVE IT!



Here's to a wonderful Tuesday Morning!

Thursday

Hello Loves-

Its been way to long since I last updated and I'm so very sorry for this. I guess the days have flown by and now its already mid October almost! Oh my. I'm listening to this great classical music I found off of Aurgasm ( http://www.stumbleupon.com/toolbar/#topic=Music&url=http%253A%252F%252Faurgasm.us%252F ) . Love it! Its so soothing and for some reason I love to listen to classical music when I'm creative. It really helps me to focus and get in touch with myself...Who knows :)

Things are busy here! In October I am going to a Halloween party at Jack's work and then the following weekend. We are hosting a Halloween Party at our house. Two weeks after that my darling friend Leslie will be visiting. After that it will be Thanksgiving and its all down hill after that and it will be Christmas before we know it! I can't wait. My fingers are itching to make Christmas gifts and cards. Yay! It's going to be here soon!!

Well that is it for now loves! Sorry!!

Cheers-

Craft Project!!!

I bought a sewing machine last night as a splurge/want for a long time! I was at Joann's and really wanted to make my niece a cute little bag for trick or treating and jack had a good idea to make it out of the fuzzy/hairy fabric and from there i found all the components. So enjoy the pics below! It's so precious. Almost makes me wish that I was little again!

This is the interior of the bag (Jack helped do a bunch of the sewing/construction of the project!)


Bag with the eyes! I love how much they really look like cat eyes! Meow...




Voila! Finished cat bag! Its kinda cheesey/martha stewartish but come'on a little 2 year old walking around with this will be adorable! I also love the blank expression of the cat!




Cheers and happy Sunday!
