Random Friday...

1. i'm sick....AGAIN! i think since i stay home and wash everything in bleach, my immune system has gone out.  the mister and our darling bring their germs home and then they attack my body and drop me for 2 weeks...ugh! i'm going to have to start licking the carts at walmart again.

2. i don't get this necklace
 i kinda think it looks like intestines in some medical journal... anyone else?

3. now let's move on to something CUTE, really cute!!  Vintage Fabric Bird Pillow! Yep, she "put a bird on it!"
Bundles of Blossoms is now back on etsy!  

4. trust me, you're going to want to check this out, here's a tiny sneak peek...


5. another box FULL of hats came in last night (for the kids in China-see the tab at the top for ALL the info!). i would love to show you, but i am having major problems with my iphoto. no matter what i do, i can not get my photo's to download from the CF card... they did yesterday from 1 camera but not the other. today, no photo's will download...Grrr!!

6. they announced the winner of art prize here in Grand Rapids, MI
go see the article in the above link.
Congratulations to the winner, who lost her mothers hours before her win was announced; bittersweet for sure. 

7. my (real life) friend had a beautiful entry. of course, i wanted her to win. not only because the win would have given her the fame she craves, but also $250,000!!!!! (and maybe she'd have taken me to lunch?)
trust me, this picture does not do it justice and yes, i stole it from her blog

8. the sun is out and it is truly GLORIOUS here in michigan, i would LOVE to show you the pictures i took, but did i mention i can't get the pictures on that card to go into my computer?

9. how stinkin' CUTE is this dress?!
go HERE she'll make you one!!
love that pattern...yeah, just like the one i am hand painting on my master bedroom wall... do NOT even ask how that is going...

10. will someone please come over and make my front porch look like this Pottery Barn catalog?

ok, peeps, this mama is going back to the couch... have a fabulous weekend.

Independent Fashion designers on etsy.

We're getting ready to go on our annual cruise soon (don't try to come steal my collection of Q-tips used by celebrity's, my parents are house sitting!).  This girl needs something to wear, because of course, I have NOTHING to wear and I HATE everything I do own!
So last night I was grazing on etsy and look at all these CUTE custom pieces!!
The shop name is below each item and will take you to their shop.  Go see... I am amazed that people can actually SEW like this....I can't imagine being able to make something like this!
RiverOfRomansk (I could have put every one of her designs on here...the way I dream of dressing!)
Penni Pops Designs (you had me at pink!)
Flutter (I know one of the designers at this shop, she is a doll! Go check their ruffled collars!!!)
ThongbalTaTong (this mix match style is my FAVE, totally me!!)
and then some store bought goodies (although just not as much character and style as the handmade!):

jcrew
So I'm headed out today to shop, it's always a challenge when you're 4' 11 3/4" short.  Wish I could buy some leg length!!!
Where do you shop the most?  I'll admit, TJ Maxx gets a lot of my clothing $, they have an odd assortment of items and I can sometimes find weird sizes.  Do you ever buy custom clothing on etsy (or anywhere else)?  Favorite items this season??  Least favorite items this season?  I'll tell you one thing i am NOT excited about...those little floral prints that were so big in the 80's, I was over those in 1989!
Happy Thursday!  We have a 2 hour ice delay this morning... 
Welcome to Michigan Spring!!
