Not so happy model...

Here is my "not so happy" model.... Isn't she precious? :)


This is my niece Karli modeling her "Baby Chic" headband. Poor kid... You know she's thinking "Why did my aunt buy me a skirt & make me a headband, but give me no shirt???"  Bless her heart.  I promise its on it's way!!!

Introducing Baby Chic...

I began making baby accessories a couple of months ago.  Baby Chic was born after finding out my biological sister was having a little girl.  I'm so excited about the possibilities!  I started  out making headbands and have come up with a few other items that have yet to be completed, but look forward to more in the Baby Chic line.  I haven't had a chance to actually post these items to my blog because I am quite possibly the slowest sister ever and didn't get the gift to her for awhile.  That being said, I didn't want to post it on here until I had given it to her.
Here is the latest headband (this headband is also available for purchase in our store):



And my latest card:


Thankfully, I got it to her before my beautiful new niece was born.  She is going to be my new model, if I ever get around to actually mailing the headbands I've been making. :)

Update...

Unfortunately, I again don't have a crafty post for today.  I hope you will all forgive me as half of my craft stuff is at the new house, a quarter of it is in boxes, and the other quarter is in my house.  None of it all goes together, but hopefully by the end of this week, I will have my new furniture for my craft room at the new house.  Then, I can show you all what it is going to look like.  I'm pretty pumped about it.
I spent the beginning of last week in Tampa, Florida for the IAAP (International Association of Administrative Professionals) Spring Conference.  They focused a lot on teaching us how we can "Bounce Back & Bounce Higher" in an everchanging job-role.  It was awesome to be able to get to know other admins around the country.  The warmer weather wasn't too bad either. :)  I took mom with me.  We had a pretty eventful flight back as our first flight was cancellled and then we were delayed.  By the time we got in, I was pretty happy to not be in the air anymore.  When I felt the cold weather, I looked at my mom & said "Go Back Florida."  When I was 2, we went on a house hunting trip to Florida and when we got back to Indiana, that is what I said.  haha... I prefer warm weather.
This weekend has been spent cleaning and setting up the new house.  I think by the time we finally get the whole thing clean from top to bottom, it'll be time to start over again.  Oh well... I did go to a pre-wedding lunch at Emma's Tea Room w/ mom, my sister & a lady from their church.  She gave me a beautiful pink depression glass cake plate.  I don't think that boy was too amused with the color, but I LOVED it.  Wedding invitations are being addressed.  That is a huge undertaking in and of itself.  I'm glad I'm starting now, cause it's going to take me awhile.
Well, its about time for me to get ready and head back to church.  Sundays are always a little chaotic.  We should be getting at least one new item in the etsy store this week.  I've been meaning to put something up for a while, so be on the look out for that.  I'll probably post on the blog when I finally get it up.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Whoops...

I know I mentioned earlier that things would be crazy, but I seriously never intended on going so long without posting!  I just looked at the date of my last post and couldn't believe it!
I apologize for being MIA lately.  We've been swamped with moving, traveling and I have been pretty sick lately too.  I promise to be back with more posts this weekend.  I've got much to share!

Have a fabulous rest of the week!
