In love with an ogre...

This week, find a very fun collaboration on eBay featuring my favorite ogre, Shrek! My fellow DillyDally designers and I had so much fun with this one. You'll find a brother and sister set, a boy and girl Shrek necklace, and of course the set of bows with matching clip. See them all here!

Sparkle and Shimmer

I've resisted this beautiful sparkle ribbon for months and months. But finally I broke down and ordered it in a few colors. It is BEAUTIFUL! The sun hits it and it just shimmers and shines! So I've ordered it in every color available and will soon have headbands, bitty bows and basic clips available in all of the colors. I can picture these bows and headbands being worn during the holidays, especially. Find them in my Etsy shop now- and when I get the full spectrum of colors in, they will be a regular item on my website.

Happy Days!

Today is Earth Day and Girl Scout Leaders Day. Julia went off with a friend for the afternoon, and Adam is busy with all-things-Lego, so Sara and I took off to the local garden store to find supplies to build a mini Terrarium. We wanted to create our own little ecosystem in a jar.

We followed this wonderful tutorial. Easy Peasy!
Here she is with the finished product...she felt it needed a decoration. We looked around for a fairy or mushroom, and came home with a frog. It was cute, but too big to fit. She found this white bengal tiger and we knew it was the perfect finishing touch.

Happy Earth Day!

Oh what a night...

The Father-Daughter dance was last night. What a fun time for the girls! Here are Julia and Sara, all ready to go. They loved their dresses!

It was raining out, so I was worried about indoor pictures, but I love how these came out.
Here are the girls with Mark. He has lost 50 pounds- he's looking good!

We had some of their friends over to take some pictures- the dads all looking so handsome in their shirts and ties that coordinated with the girls dresses.

Here they are being so silly! This might be my favorite picture!

I would have loved to see the school gym full of pretty girls, but moms get to stay home with the boys. My son had his friend over and they ruled the WII for the night!

A Seuss-ish Steal

Call me strange, but I had a dream about Cat in the Hat bows last night. Seuss/Cat bows have always been a great seller for me- it seems I make them quite often. This morning I made up this pair to list on Etsy. Want them? They are offered at great discount from what I typically charge on the website. Just for fun!

Pretty Plum...

I love the rich hues of these two felt colors- they look so nice together. This is a bigger rose that sits up on top of the headband like it is blooming. It's a one-of-a-kind, listed on Etsy.
