Holiday heart warmers...............

Searching the world of blogs..........these are some of my favorite things relating to christmas.

holiday boutique

i did my first holiday boutique last week........happy to say it was successful. i sold a lot! but most of all i received very postive feedback. I can't wait till my next show. in the meantime here are some photos from the show......i will be selling some items on etsy sometime this week.

Vendoring

Tomorrow morning when I wake up I will be faced with doing my first show as a vendor of handmade crafts..........i am nervous.

i love to create things...........i have been so inspired by her . She is my BCF (best cyber friend).

i have a two day show......at a yacht club (oh a little bit more scary)!

my car is packed and i am as ready as I will ever be...months and months of crafting. messes all over the house....and now a little bit of stress.

wish me luck!

too cute baking items

Just for fun......

The little girls and I made this cake for my son's 16th birthday.

I found the whimsical accessories on this website.

Wouldn't this be fun for the bride to be?

I bought these to make Happy cupcakes.

or sexy cupcakes?

love all of these.........

Did I mention the prices are great?

apples

I love fall...........fresh apples! So many things to do with apples. Yummy!

"Slimming" Black Rooms

While seeking inspiration for interior colors, I have often read that one must simply open the doors to her closet. The color of clothes that you tend to gravitate towards is the secret to painting a room that will soothe and comfort you.

For years I have opened that closet door hoping to find the right color to paint my rooms.....denim (I don't even really like blue and NOTHING in my house is blue) or black! Everything else in my closet is Black! I could never paint a room that color.........for heaven's sake - my room doesn't need to "look slimming".

Well think again I tell myself.......! You don't have to live in a loft in SoHo or be a total Goth to use black in interior design.

I love these rooms.......in one word: G L A M !

I bet her and Becks have a posh black room in one of their homes!
