Boobie pads and giveaways

Yay! More things I got in the past came in! Whoohoo!!

About a week before mother's day, I did a little shopping to treat myself on my first motherly holiday. Of course, I went to etsy, and remembered meeting BabyOReally. She sells nursing pads for pregnant or lactating moms. Personally, I decided to feed my daughter Lilly with breastmilk the moment I found out I was pregnant. If I knew about etsy AND BabyOReally, I would've bought this sooner!! Anywho. I ordered 7 nursing pads for Mother's Day. I was so excited, that I forgot to read about the 7-10 business days of it made to order. Bah, that's plently of time. One month later, it finally arrived. Although I'm a bit sad it took so long, the moment I saw the packaging and the lovely pads, I didn't care. It was beautifully packaged and came with lovely gifts. Almost immediately, I wore one of them. Then I realized, "oh crap, I'm suppose to blog about this!" Oh well. The one I'm wearing now is this one here: Rhapsody nursing pad.. turquoise with brown polka dots. I must say, it's so soft and comfortable! Much better than disposable nursing pads! I highly recommend this to future moms! But be caution, it does take a long time! So order ahead :) Also, it came with freebies! Tea bag, soap bits, recipes...

I forgot what happened... But I won some sort of giveaway I think... It happened so fast... I saw fifiswhimsies in a chat room, all alone. I didn't even bother to read the room title, I just jumped in. She said that I won, and I'm like "whaaaa?". Anywho, I won! YAAY! I really need to remember what it was about... Anywho, the prize came in today and it's sooo adorable! A lovely reindeer plush ornament to hang on your Christmas tree! Whoohoo!! Wonderfully handpainted and lovely details. Also, so cute!

FS room... It's an addiction sometimes. At the time, I had chapped lips and paradisesunrise was up with great deals. I thought "What the hey, let's buy some chapstick". I didn't get FS (of course), so like it matters. After browsing around, I landed onto my favorite drink flavor: strawberry lemonade. I got it around 1 PM today... it's now 6 PM and my lips are still kind of moist. I bet if I put on some more now, it'll be even better. Lovely and works well (so far)!
In other news: a HUGE storm passed the Fort Worth-Dallas area today. It was quite scary, and made poor little Lilly cry all night. Thankfully, it's gone and I hope to get a good night's rest. If not, I'm doomed.

CABOCHONS GALORE!

(Two posts in one day?! I must be on a roll!!)

I just love love LOVE cabochons.. so cute and wonderful :) I think I was browsing through Time Machine 2 on etsy, and came across one of the listings that just sold. And I was like "Oooo, cabochons.. let's check out this shop!!" Hence, I entered Tomoko.

Like the title says, cabochons galore! Lots of sets, even though, as it says, it's B-grade. I didn't care, I wanted it! So I purchased some and waited patiently... That was on June 4. Today (June 10), it arrived! What fast shipping!! I got so excited, that I just opened it right outside, haha! The mowers outside was wondering why I was so weird... It was just so cute and outstanding! Some did look like it's B-grade, but most aren't! I'm highly satisfied and can't wait to turn these into lovely jewelry or decorative stuff!
Even got some freebies, whoohoo!! :D


Btw, I'll mention this again: YART SALE!! Everything's gotta go and I'm making a whole new shop! :D Thanks all for your time!

YART SALE!

Come one, come all! I'm participating in the annual Yart Sale on etsy! EVERYTHING is on sale, 50%! That way, I can get rid of some stuff and start anew. Whole new collection line. :)

Ready, set, go!

GO!

I want to hear your opinion/suggestions!

After talking with Candychick, I've decided to do a show. And to start off, I'm going to try and get into an anime convention down in Austin TX. It's about a good 5 hour drive, and I don't mind one bit. I LOVE Austin. And not for 6th Street! I'm a Longhorns fan and have lots of friends in UT right now.

The anime convention is called IkkiCon. It looks pretty good also the booth costs are not too bad. It starts in January, a bit of time away. But it's something that I can prepare for without rushing.

So, what do you guys think? Any suggestions on how to make this somewhat successful or any advice? I would like to hear them all!

Twilight inspired necklace, Lolita style mirror, and much more...

I LOVE Thursdays $10 Trade Game. It's because of this that I started to enjoy trading. I never realized the beauty of it until now. Last week on Thursday (5/28), I selected queenjane0 as one of my top four choices. Me, I'm a Twilight fan, yes I am. I read Twilight when it first came out, waaaay before the huge rave. And so, I chose this Twilight Inspired Bella Swarovski Crystal Necklace. It definitely reminded me of Bella! Sadly, I didn't enjoy the Twilight movie... But I am looking forward to New Moon. Yay for Jacob (*ducks from Edward fans*)!! Don't get me wrong, I love Edward. But as of the movie, I think Jacob is waaay hotter (Mike Newton is hawt!).

As of recently, I've been losing motivation on clay-making, but I still continue to make them. Now, I move onto cabochons or cute little plastic objects, dollhouse miniatures, and making them into jewelry (re-ment). As my first start, I made hairclips. A week before that, I ordered online a hand-held mirror from SweetCandyRibbons. It's an Anna Sui medium mirror, black with a rose in the middle. It looks so gorgeous just by itself, but I must decorate it in order to sell it online! Haha. I just can't wait to start on it. :) Along with that, I bought two cute chocolate bar phone charms. So cuuute!! I'm planning on using it for another use, since I realize that iPhones don't have a thing for charms! Unless they do lol! With that purchase, I received some freebies: cabochon roses! Awesome! And a stamp card for the customer rewards program. Definitely going back there soon! Wonderful service and fast shipping! What's better than that?

Also, I'm starting to design a business card, with ShoeBox21 helping me out! More on that later.

Anyone interested in buying a diamond promise ring from me?? Can't seem to sell it.. :(

Coming Today: Hair Clips!

I have never done hairclips before, and I was quite excited when I got some in the mail. :) Just a nice, simple hair clip with a cabochon attached. I'm doing simple stuff until I get more money and I'll experiment with resin clay or paper clay.




That's just a small preview of the hairclips. More are going to be uploaded later tonight. Have I mention how much editing pictures suck? Getting quite bit more time consuming.

Until then, anyone have any ideas how to make whipped cream just from clay? No mold or anything??

Well then...

Currently: chatting in etsy chat :)
Working on..: bubble mailers. TONS of bubble mailers. yaaaaay

I promise, I'll update this more!!!

Recently, I've been thinking of what to do with this blog.. no one reads it since I don't "advertise" it and that just makes me feel like I shouldn't update. Well, no more! I'll do it and I'll force myself to do it!!

Although this is for my shop only, I'll talk a little bit of my daily life. For the full out version, just visit my personal blog. :) That's all for now. Tata!
