Meet Tandi Keen......

TANDI KEEN PHOTOGRAPHY
sent me these beautiful photographs of this little newborn.

If you are in the Stering, CO area check her out! I wish she was close to me!

These headbands (or at least similar ones) are all available for purchase in my ETSY shop.
Tandi was able to snag some OOAK (One Of A Kind) pieces that won't ever be recreated!

I love working with photographers for the perfect portrait prop!



Thank you Tandi for the early Christmas present!!! :)

Blessings,

I'm a Winner!!!!

So I must tell you before I start my post. I never "win" anything. I think my life has been blessed with a wonderful family. I have the perfect husband and two very special little girls.
However......
As far as "contests" go. I never win. Basically I don't even enter them because I know I'll never win.

Well a week ago I came upon a cool little contest to win some adorable doggie Christmas cards.

Kaleigh my 7 year old is a complete and total dog lover!!! She loves animals period - however dogs are her most favorite.

So I entered the contest and guess what........I won!!!!!!!!

My cards came in the mail today and they are so adorable. Even cuter in person.
Kaleigh is going to freak when she gets home from school.
She asked me if I could save one for her when they came so she could give one to her teacher.

So I must tell you - to go check out

Underhill House Handcrafts and Art

Here are some of the delightful things you will find (and some of my other favorites):



Thank you Kendra for the awesome giveaway!!!!

Presentation is Everything!!!!!

I have always thought that presentation is everything!!!

When I get items in the mail that I have ordered online, it really does say a lot when the item I have ordered is wrapped in tissue paper, tied off with a ribbon, and a little note card is inside thanking me for my purchase.

I have gotten those few items that are just stuffed inside an envelope and shipped off. How sad and boring.

Well - check out how our family portraits arrived. I just had to share how adorable Tami w/ Butterfly Kiss Photography's presentation is!!

(and inside.......)

Just too cute!!! Little tags - with some of our portraits printed on them!!!!

These are going into the girls baby books!! They are just too cute!

Here is one of our pictures on the wall from Butterfly Kiss Photography!

You'll have to wait to see our family portrait, as right now there is some Christmas decor in it's spot!!!! I can't wait to put it up in it's permanent home - it's on the wall by our front door but that's only temporarily!

I am having fun decorating with all our pictures!!!!

(Pssttt, I hear Tami has some pictures for me of some new bundles in some headbands I made).
Mmmm, I can't WAIT to show you all those too!!! I'm going to be taking this blog to a new level. It's been ignored too long!!!!
You can sneak peak at Tami's blog here.

Oh and do you like my new template?!?! Told yah I'm going to start doing this whole "blog" thing!

My DIY Ornament Wreath

So as most of you who know me...know I am not the creative type.

Seriously! I'm not! Okay except for when it comes to hair pretties for little girls.
If it is a flower or a bow - I'm good. Anything else. Foooorgetaboutit!

Well, I saw this adorable little wreath over at my friend Karla's blog
and had to give it a woah!


You must follow her instructions and make sure you do THREE major things!
*Glue the tops to the ornaments before you begin.
*Use the thinnest wire coat hanger you can find.
*Make sure you have LOTS of ornaments if you want a full - large wreath.

Here is how ours turned out!!!

NO LAUGHING!!!!!!!!!!!! Karla is totally Mrs. Martha, I'm only a wannabe!


Now go try it yourself! And have fun!
