Thanks ladies for joining my party!


I just wanted to say Thank You to some lovely ladies, who helped me kick off my new party.


Amaze me August


If you haven't already, please check out their blogs. They are all very sweet, and very talented.

Check out Ami over at Ali Lilly, she has tons of great ideas, recipes, and jewelry. She is doing a great giveaway to one lucky reader, celebrating her 100th follower although she will soon have to change that to reaching 200 very soon, lol. 

























And here is her AMAZING bracelet she is giving away..... so hurry on over to her blog, and enter to win. I think you only have until the 1st to enter, so get to it, and show her your support. 


Thanks again AMI for all  your support, and encouragement. :)

When I saw this lemonade stand, I just fell in love. Christie over at 
Three Pixie Lane designed this sweet thing. Man how I would seriously love to have one of those laying around all summer.

Thanks for sharing Christie!!

Another great link up was this Necklace Display by Christina over at Christina's Adventures. She had an aha moment and this is the result. Hmm, I need to get me one of those moments more often, and hopefully I can get my jewelry organized already. 


Thanks Christina for linking up, and you guys make sure to check out how she did it, she even to improvise ghetto style at one point, gotta love when that happens, and it does all the time around here.

This awesome girls bedroom she linked up is adorable, but what caught my eye was these little tie backs she swears she made from soda cans,,, I can't wait to see the tutorial on that!!! Can you hear me Lindy, tutorial please :)

Ok, another jewelry organizer, but check this thing out. It's so fun, and I LOVE the yellow frame, even the chicken wire looks funky, and those cute buttons Gabrielle made are pretty cool. The complete tutorial is over at her blog http://icraftatbeewisebags.blogspot.com/2010/08/jewelry-organizer.html. She has a bunch of fun things going on. Plus she is way into reducing, reusing, and recycling. My kind of gal. She has so many talents, and is also a great cook, and writes too. Do make sure to check out all the things that Gabrielle has to offer, her blog is pretty amazing. 



Thanks again, Gabrielle!

For my last little shout out, I want to say thank you to Billie over at her new blog Billie Monster. I am still assuming this is her name,, he he. Her blog is so totally funky, and different, its very refreshing to me. I enjoyed all her posts, and pictures, and blog design, and you name it. She has really great taste in fabric, and colors. She is fun, and you should really take a peek already. 

You would not believe the not so awesome lamps these used to be, before the makeover. Have fun checking her out!!




Ladies, THANK YOU so much for joining my party, and I really hope you will come back often. 


Hope all of you were able to take a peek at these awesome blogs, and share the love.

Check back tomorrow as my party comes to an end, and I am trying really hard to get my list complete. I do think I will not finish some of the things, but looking back at the past 2 weeks, I was able to complete more than usual, and all of you have made it happen. Simply knowing I challenged myself, and all of you, was enough to get up and do it. Thanks for reading, and all your encouragement. See you tomorrow!



As always ENJOY!

Special requests, or mad love always welcome:)

My photo
In my spare time I enjoy cooking, and baking. In fact my mother and I have been making cakes for over 30 years. I also love gardening, traveling, and all things crafty. I struggle daily to keep my like organized, along with my never ending battle to keep the house clean. I adore my three kids MOST of the time, and can usually be found doing the mom thing from morning till night. I try to catch a few mommy moments, but those are hard to find in this wonderful life of mine. I am blessed and happy, and am thrilled you stopped by today :)
