here's to friday + an awesome weekend

courtesy of

rain has been frequent here lately in our parts of texas and i couldnt be happier. our ground is nice and moist and the temperatures have cooled significantly.  yesterday we managed a whopping 86 degrees when in days past we were seeing things more like 108.  it was a nice relief.  this weekend should be no different. we are now seeing lower ninety temps and rain all weekend. perfect for movie watching and snuggling.

a handsome hearthrob now can be colored.

God blessed us (DFW, Texas) with seven inches of snow last night.  Pretty amazing if you ask me.  It's the nice light and fluffy stuff that you only see in pictures or movies.   I wish I was able to stay home and enjoy this landscape, but I made my way in finally.  The commute was long and forever going, but extremely beautiful..

I hope everyone is having a warm Friday morning so far.  If you have snow pictures I would love to see them!

Happy Friday friends! ♥

Cheers,

make that color pop!

Happy Friday friends!  We made it through another daunting week and I'm sure you are as glad its Friday as I am.

With that said, I am throwing around a couple of things right now, and color is one of them.  Who doesn't LOVE color?  It makes life so much more interesting!

Above are a few color combos I'm playing with in my head and at my sewing table right now for a few items I'm working on for Cheers, Bethani.   I think these colors are so "in" right now and catchy! What I'm looking for are some names for these color combos... The combos are:

a.) poppy red + white + sky blue  = ???

b.) bubble gum pink + sea foam green + chocolate brown = ???

c.) chocolate brown + cotton candy pink + periwinkle blue = ????

I've got a few ideas in my head, but want some additional input, if you may have some.  I would like the names to somewhat flow together, like places, names, foods, etc.  

I also know there are million other color combos out there that are "in" right now. If you have any other "in" color combos that you know of & think I should know about, email me your color board, and what name you would give it.  Inspiration is what I'm all about for my store, things people love and want to see.  I will then share your color combo & name with the rest of my blog friends - and if your combo is down right extremely popular among the fans, I will feature an item using your combo in my store with the name you give it.  Sounds exciting huh?!  I think it does.  Any questions, let me know!


That's all I've got for now...  Have a FANTASTIC Friday my loves!

Cheers,

Hey there Friday!

Hey There!

What a week folks, but it is Friday! Thank goodness.   I hope everyone has had a pretty enjoyable week, with even a more enjoyable weekend ahead of them.

The mister and I have more tux fittings for the boys, tea party/dress up shopping for Emilee (only to keep her out of the tux store), playoff football, family time, & lots of relaxation, we hope, in store for us this weekend!  

What is everyone else up to this Saturday and Sunday?

Don't forget about the giveaway that ends on January 25.  It started as a $25 dollar giveaway to Bake It Pretty, but the lovely Amanda at Bake It Pretty has added another $5 to your spending spree, so the total giveaway is now $30!  That's right folks, THIRTY dollars, for all your baking needs.  So hop over to the store, find some yummies you like & enter my giveaway.  You could be lucky one!  

Also, starting NEXT week, which day is TBD, I will be hosting yet ANOTHER giveaway, sponsored by the ever so lovely and talented Kathy from Happy Kathy.  Her jewelry is so darling and precious.  Details about this giveaway will be given next week.  Take some time to hop over and say hello to Kathy and show some love.  You will like what we have in store for you!

Have a fantastic Friday my loves! ♥
