Cook Christmas 2010

Just a few photos of my home at Christmas time! I'm having so much fun making crafts and decorating! I am definitely in the Christmas spirit this year! :)

I will take and post photos of the outside of our home! We put up lights this year! I love it! I can't wait for Christmas! I am hoping my parents will come so we can make tamales! Mmmm!  

Today's Christmas Craft!

I felt like getting crafty today! My friend, Sandy sent me a link in my email for some cute Christmas craft ideas and that's where I got the idea to make my dogs cute holiday clips for their collars! I love the way they came out!

After dinner tonight, I'm going to try my hand at making a holiday banner for my living room! I'll let you all know how that goes!

The Sweet Boutique

My good friend, Veronica and I decided that we wanted to combine my cute crafts and her yummy baking and sign up for a booth at the annual fall bazaar here on Dugway! We wanted something cute and different that has not been done before at the bazaar!

We worked hard all October and into November...and on the 18th of November we had a blast setting up The Sweet Boutique booth and loved the responses we got from our customers!

I sold handmade magnets, notebooks and my popular butterfly clips! I also raffled off a free photo shoot to one lucky winner! We also sold yummy chocolate covered strawberries, cake pops, caramel apples, and chocolate dipped pretzels!

We wanted our booth to be eye catching and cute and I think we accomplished just that! :)

I was Featured...

...HERE!

 

A set of my Funky ButterflyClips were featured on a beautiful blog called 6th Street Design School! Its always fun to see your designs appreciated! So a big THANK YOU to Kristen Krason for making my day! Be sure to check out her blog!





In other news...I know its been over 6 months since my last post and since then I've been working on my shop and getting caught up in that! Its been a lot of fun and hopefully new things will start coming my way here on Dugway Proving Ground with our Family Readiness Group that will open up a lot of opportunity to introduce my photography skills and crafty skills to our small community! 

I've posted a lot of my photo shoots on Facebook and will get a badge on my blog so if you'd like to see some of my work feel free to take a look!

There's also new and Oh SO Beautiful clips in the shop! These new sets might just be my all time favorites! I love working with paper and design and matching them up and making them look pretty!

I guess being featured was my little push to getting back to my blog! I hope I still have a few readers out there! Lol!
