almost

I'm still not myself...but things are definitely looking up. I hope to have more to report soon. It's so hard to post when I'm not myself.

One of these days, though, and hopefully soon...I'll be back.

Sugarville 101


Guess what! I'm teaching a class!
Here are the details:
Sugarville "Home Sweet Home" Wreath by Amy Powers
Come on a little journey with me to a sweet little town called Sugarville. We'll create your very own property, glitter it in true Sugarville style, and make it the center of a very special flowerful glittery wreath. Add a little bluebird of happiness and a banner declaring "home sweet home" and you have a perfect accessory for your home.

Seating is limited and registration is on a first-come, first-served basis.

and we're back...

I'm feeling much more like myself these last few days. It was really horrible feeling like someone else...my nerves were jumping right under my skin and I was biting everyone's head off.

But, the point is...better now.

I had some help today which meant I could do a little shopping for my sister's and niece's birthdays (also to be celebrated this weekend)...

While out, I bought this for myself...

Isn't it sweet? There's one for cream, sugar, honey, and...
SPRINKLES! Well, you know that sealed the deal for me. Happy birthday to me, indeed!
I bought Maggie, who will be 5 next Saturday, this magical jewelry box...you know the kind where the ballerina twirls to the music when you open it. Every little girl should have one. Well, I thought so. And I also thought that the ballerina should look as much like the little girl as possible....


So here's the box, all blinged out, with a more wonderful ballerina to twirl about.


The glue's still wet, but you get the idea. I think I want one too. And I do think Miss Pink, who so admired Maggie's, should get one too. You should've seen her looking at the ballerina twirl around while smiling at her own reflection. Too sweet.
So have a good weekend, everyone. And please help me celebrate my day by eating a cupcake tomorrow. And as you do, hold it up and say cheerfully "Oh, that Amy!"
See? I'm back. Whew...
p.s. The jewelry box is from Pottery Barn Kids...and the sugar, creamer, etc is from regular old Pottery Barn.
