What do I do now?

I am looking for ideas. I need a new direction.

Help

Contest and Open House coming up

If I don't announce it now, I won't commit myself to it. So, here it goes!

THE CONTEST

I am giving away a very cute tree skirt. I made one, and had enough extra that I thought I had better make the other. I will put the tutorial in a few days. I have the pictures and the finished product, but not downloaded on the computer yet. All you have to do is leave a comment, or come to my Open House (I will put names in a Santa Hat and draw it at 1:00pm at my Open House). You do not need to be present to win.

I will be having an Open House on December 12th. 10:00am til 1:00pm. I will have many things there. Pictures to come soon.

Hair items (all sizes and kinds)
My new Baby O line (pictures soon)
$1 Neighbor/Teacher Gifts
Some cute Christmas Items

I will be posting pictures soon. And hopefully getting back into the swing of things. If you want to place an order, please leave a comment with your email address (or email me) and I will get back to you.

My newest diaper cake

Another Monkey Diaper Cake. I love it! I try to different types of cakes and make them all unique. This was ordered this week. What do you think?

The cake comes with-

-50 1/2 size Huggies Diapers

-Various decorations (glue dotted to the cake)

-1 Monkey rattle

I am taking orders!

My Newest Additions

This is the newest addition to my selection of items to buy.

Pink and Brown Polka Dot Burpees
Lil Buckaroo Diaper Cake

This Diaper cake has been sold (donated to an auction). But it is cute and it shows my latest "creation". The "Mommy Clip" and the "Baby Clip".

The Mommy Clip can be used in several ways. It can be used as around your next to hold up a blanket/nursing cover-up, or it could be used to hold a blanket to a carseat or stroller.

The Baby Clip is one of my favorite creations. It can be used as a binkie clip, a blanket clip (to hold to a carseat or stroller) and my favorite part... just wrap around the back of your childs neck and attach it to a wash rag or hand towel and use it as a bib.

More still to come!!

My First Craft Fair

My first show was a bust. It was an outside Craft Fair. The wind blew and blew and we were rained out by noon. Most people stayed home. The set up was horrible. I paid for a front row booth and most of the other "front row" booths stayed home, so people were actually parking next to my booth. There was only 2 of us on a row of about 10 booths and most went to the inside rows (booths on both sides). And there really wasn't many people there. I made some money, made very good contacts, learned a lot and am now ready for my next show. I will also be opening up my Etsy shop. I will start posting info about each item this week.

I will also have a drawing for everyone that is a follower and there will be a nice prize each week, starting Monday, June 29th.

You can see some of the items I took to my craft fair below.

My Duckie Diaper Cake
Crocheted Headbands

Weaved Headbands (talk of the craft show).

I have actually been hired to teach someone how to make them.

Beaded Pens

Look for more to follow...

And the coming soon... Great projects are being made!

Twilight Lip Gloss and more

It came today! Twilight LipGloss...
Edward's Kiss, Chillin' Girls since 1901, I love Edward, This is your brain on Twilight and Bite me... all in Vampire Ice Flavor (very cool feeling and smooth).

And I got some Werewolf too. I love Jacob and Imprinted for Life. In Werewolf Fire Flavor (very hot feeling and rougher than most glosses)

This sells for $5 at a lot of boutiques (and is always sold out). I have been trying to get this for my daughter since Christmas and the one boutique that carries it, has been out since then. I haven't seen anywhere else. I will sell it for $3 each, or 4 for $10. This will be at the Craft Fair on Saturday. If I sell out, I will backorder it and get it in a few weeks.

Here are some of the flower clippies I will have. Prices will vary from $1 to $5.

More pictures coming soon.

So Blessed Frame- Perfect for Mother's Day

Introducing the So Blessed Frame

This is a frame to either show in your house or give as a Gift (Mother's Day is right around the corner). There is a screen over the scrap paper, and is suppose to hold a magnet... but silly me, I didn't take a magnet to Home Depot to make sure it was really a metal screen (even though that is what I asked for). So I will update the picture with the right screen later)
When: April 14th
What Time: 7:00 pm
Where: East Stake Center
What do you need?
Frame (I got mine from Robert's Craft $9.99 and used the 40% off coupon)
Paint (I used White and have plenty- please do not go and purchase paint)
Stain (I used dark Walnut and have more than plenty-again, please do not go and purchase any. And is not required)
Sanding blocks or sand paper (to rough the edges)
I have plenty of foam brushes
I am working on getting a better screen and will have to purchase a whole roll (so don't go out and buy any).
The Metal holder on top is from Crafter Corner and is for $3.99. If anyone needs me to pick one up for them before Tuesday, just email me.
A clothe to wipe stain off (just an old rag)
A piece of scrapbook paper (unless you are looking for something specific, I have plenty of paper).

** Forgot to list earlier*** Ribbon... 1 1/2 yard (to make the bows).

I also have the black vinyl and the Cricut machine with a few fonts. If you want a different color, you can purchase that almost anywhere.

And Magnets. I will have stuff to make a few magnets or you could just use any magnets.

Let me know what you think!

Comments (by email)

I am receiving a lot of comments back about my site, but no one has yet to post a comment to this site. I do love the feedback and I would like to know what you guys are thinking. I want to make a product and site that works, without a lot of trial and error- when it comes to expenses. And as we all know, blogging is pretty much free.

Comments so far-
I like your site, but the black is a little too dark for me. Make it brighter.

It's fun to look at all of your product, but maybe there is a way to just simplify it. Just pick a few of your best pieces. The video takes too long to load.

Can I order your products now? Or do I have to wait til Monday to find out?

Can I do a custom order?

What is your email address (for orders)?

I am working on answering all of the questions. But most importantly I have posted information on my sidebar to help with contacting me directly. Please leave a comment, you could win a wonderful prize!

Releasing new products and a comment contest!

On Monday, March 30th, the above products will be listed on my Etsy site. To promote my site and get some needed feedback, I am going to have a contest. On Monday morning after 9am I will input everyone's name and comments into Random.org.

The Prize

Its a small box of clippies, a weaved headband and a surprise!

Rules:

You can enter up to 5 comments. Tell me your favorite product. Tell me anything!

Don't forget! Contest ends at 9am on Monday, March 30th.

You can also leave a questions.

Watch for some new and exciting things coming soon!
