I can really say that it doesn't surprise me because I tend to do it to myself. Have you noticed how your life can be crazy one minute and calm the next. School starts Monday. Bow making is ongoing. My part time job is seeming like it may be more full time than anything, and with my kids' outside activities, its getting a little nuts. I will say this, I will never complain of a dull life!
Today I worked on a new hair bow with some templates I purchased. I'm always trying to expand my abilities and there is nothing wrong with getting tips from the professionals! I bought a set of templates from a company called No Bow No Go And the above photo is one of my newest creations. What do you think? I stacked a twisted template, with a double layer surround bow, with some "streamers" below. They are attached to one another and anchored to a lined clip.
Tomorrow I will be immersed in rebar plans, the flea market, my children, a Saturday of house cleaning, shopping, and getting ready for Monday. I'm hoping to be able to get some time on here to share some of my tricks to doing little fun projects.
Until then, I hope you remember what a blessing each and everyday is, and that you make the most of it. Don't forget to thank the Lord!

Bubbling with Excitement!
It has been a pretty fabulous day considering... considering I had to buy a tire for the van. But, fabulous because I realized it instead of having a blow-out.
Fabulous because its my daughter's 1st birthday!
Fabulous because this is the last weekend before the kids start school hee hee!
Fabulous because I book a Tupperware party!
Fabulous because I got a slamming good deal on a Goodwill auction and got well over $200 in retail charms and jewelry for about $25!
Fabulous because I found $20 fancy curtain rods at Lowe's for only $2.70!
Fabulous because I get to eat cake today!
Fabulous because its Friday!
Fabulous because this is the day that the Lord has made! I am rejoicing and GLAD!
Joy is a wonderful feeling that God blesses us with and I am thankful when it just hits you out of the blue reminding you that God is Great!
I really hope that my flea market selling goes well this weekend, because we are strapped for cash due to the tire, but I know God will provide.
Pictures are coming soon of the new hair bows.
My site is finally formatted in a presentable manner, now its just time to fill that sucker up!
School is starting and with that I hope my sales skyrocket. Tonight will be open house for my kids at their school. I wish my business cards were ready so I could hand some out, but I will have all of my girls modeling their bows. When I make a little spending money, they get to have fun.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful day. I hope to have some tutorials up soon!
