Workin' my fingers to the bone

Well not exactly, but I am going through a couple layers of skin.



I spent the weekend replenishing my Jewelry inventory before moving on to introduce more designs in the next few weeks. My big spring show is in May and I want to have plenty to offer.



Next up, the Kaleidoscope Collection!

Look at all the pretty!

It's Monday! Back to the weekly grind. I had a fairly productive weekend! I'm getting ready for my next jewelry show and I've been working my little fingers to the bone!

I also spent some time with my sweetie. He didn't get moved this week, but it's gonna happen Wednesday so we grabbed one more night in his little apartment. With all the rain this weekend he gave me a new "wine bottle" umbrella, isn't it adorable?!

My car wouldn't start Saturday and the check engine light is now on so I'm going to have it looked at on my lunch break (fingers crossed it's nothing too expensive!).

My little cousin Baby D came by last night and she was full of cuddles. I could have just eaten her up! Now that Liam is at home with me she is loving playing with him. She gave him a goodnight hug before she went home last night.

I decided to try out the whole Insta-Sale thing. Of course I did it at 7:00 on a Friday night so I'm pretty sure no one really saw it. So... check out my instagram feed. I have four toggle necklaces from the last show that I'm offering at a discount. If they don't sell they will be at the the show on the 22nd, but I figured I'd try it out.

That was my weekend. How was yours?

Soap for your Soul Review

So last month at the Palmetto Bloggers meet-up I was able to collect products from some awesome small businesses from around our state. One of the businesses that contributed was Good Day Sunshine, or Soap for your Soul.

In each of the goody bags they included a sample of their organic soap and a discount code for free shipping! I used my code this week to order some of the awesome seasonal items they have put out recently!

This three wick soy candle smells absolutely amazing! I haven't even burned it yet and just having it sitting in my room puts off a wonderful pumpkin scent! It's perfect for this time of year. I'm going to burn it at our Halloween party next weekend and then at Thanksgiving. I love that it comes in a reusable ceramic dish! I plan to burn this baby up this year, so next year I'll have an adorable candy dish for my desk at work!

Only $19!

The weather is going to have to cool down before we can use this adorable firestarter. J's apartment has a wood-burning fireplace so I bought this for him. I love the idea of turning the fire into a cozy scented evening in without having to work forever to get it going! Just light this little firestarter and stick it below the logs! It has a great cinnamon/spice/woody smell.

Only $4.50!

They have so many great products, and so many great gifts! Perfect for a hostess gift or that person who loves to entertain.

I love the Primitive Pumpkin Guest Soaps, and the Mason Jar Candles. I plan to continue shopping with this business. They pay attention to the details. The packaging is simple, but still perfect. You could buy from this store and ship it directly to someone as a gift and you couldn't have presented it better yourself!

I highly recommend that you check out this etsy seller. You won't regret a purchase with them!

I purchased these items at full price using a free shipping promotional code.

Handmade Love!

So Yesterday Jenn posted this great little chain reaction post, Pay it Forward.

Basically the idea is for people to do something fun for others. You get one cool gift, and you send three. 

Here's how it works:

*Within a year I’ll create something unique to share with the first three people to comment on this post.

*But, in order to receive your present you have to play along.  Spread the love on your own blog promising to send a little special something to the first three people who comment on your post   

*

 

You get 72 hours to re-post, or I’ll have to move on to the next person. 

*

 

Please only comment if you’re willing to pay it forward!

What I love about this is that I have a year to do it! So even though I won't wait that long, you have no idea when it's coming! One day you'll just check the mailbox, and there it is!

I love sending out packages and handmade is what I do best :) So if you want to play along and pay it forward, leave me comment!
