Stella and Dot

Happy Thursday friends! I wanted to let you know about a party I'm hosting tomorrow for my good friend, Kathryn, who is a brandspankin' new stylist for Stella and Dot. If you're not familiar with Stella and Dot, it's a fab jewelry line full of gorgeous pieces in a spectrum of price points. You can spend a little or a lot, it all depends on what you're looking for, and there are even pieces for the itty-bitty girls in our lives! Kathryn will bring all of her gorgeous pieces to my crib tomorrow (4-6), but you can also submit an order online by visiting this link: http://shop.stelladot.com/style/b2c_en_us/shop.html

Here are a few of my faves...








I also LOVE that every piece is delivered in its own beautiful box.
Cardboard on the outside, but pure loveliness on the inside.


I have two pieces of Stella and Dot jewelry and they are absolutely two of my fave pieces to wear. If you have any questions or would like to place an order, you can e-mail me at Funnygirl33180@aol.com

Happy day to ya!

Summer Open House

Happy Tuesday, friends! I wanted to let you locals know about an Open House/Craft Bazaar going on this weekend.  There will be several vendors on hand with lots of pretties for sale, including knitted and crocheted items (scarfs, baby blankets), Holiday wreaths and bows, Scentsy, Mary Kay, Jewelry, Handbags, Wallets, and everything from my shop- pillow covers, headbands, stationary, pennant banners, and pins. There will also be yummy things to snack on while you browse, so grab a friend this Saturday (July 7) and head to my house!

Did you hear me? This thing is totally happening at my house, which is why I haven't blogged since Friday. I was thinking about all of the surfaces I needed to hit with a swiffer and all of the toys I need to kick under the sofas. Just kidding, but not really.... 

In all seriousness though, several of us gals with small businesses thought it would be fun to put together an open house this Summer, and this is it. There are so many Open House events around Christmas time, but not many in June/July/August, so we're joining forces and coming together in one place! Grab a friend and bring them with you- Saturday, from 10-2, at MY PLACE. And if you need directions, just shoot me an e-mail! I'll be glad to get you here!

I wanted to share pics of some of the new things I've been working on, but a product photo shoot just hasn't happened. I've been far too busy playing with my kiddos in the pool, and giving the girls mani/pedis, and watching movies, and reading books, and generally just being as lazy as humanly possible. You know, good Summer time stuff. I will, however, share a few pics from my shop of goodies that I'll have available this Saturday.

















Please come and join us this Saturday! I'd love to see you!

Alright...back to cleaning.
Here's hoping the dust bunnies don't gang up on me and take me down.

Meet Libby

Hello friends!
Today I want to introduce you to a friend of mine who recently opened up an etsy shop.
Meet Libby-

She's the blondie beside me, and yes....
this picture was taken many moons ago.
Libby and I went to high school together, did community theatre together, and even spent a few years in college together at Montevallo. The above pic of us was taken during a run of State Fair with Theatre Tuscaloosa in 2000.
Sheesh I was thin.

Here's a more recent photo of her with a friend-


Isn't she fabulous?
Libby recently opened up an etsy shop where she sells jewelry that she makes, and lemme tell ya, folks,
it's awesomesauce.
Check this out:


How gorgeous is that? And only $15!


LOVE this necklace + earring set.


'Reading can be Fun'.
You got that right.
I want this now.

And...
she has cuffs and bracelets too-


Purple + green prettiness for $7,
and,
for all you Alabama fans, this set screams,
"Roll Tide!"


Here's a little info on the designer herself:

  Libby (Prendergast) Medicus, from Tuscaloosa AL, currently living in Birmingham AL. I work as a Reimbursement Analyst for an audit firm.

Q- When did you start designing jewelry? Why?

A-  I have been making/designing jewelry since I was a child but I really expanded my abilities at Bama Beads in Tuscaloosa. The store is no longer there but I learned alot from those ladies.
Q- Tell us something about yourself that most people may not know.

A-  You probably don't know that I do not have a degree in Finance (based on my 9-5 job). I have a BS in Theater from the University of Montevallo

***
That just goes to show you that you never know where you might find an actress. Haha!

***
Can't wait to update you on the kitchen.
It's actually starting to resemble a kitchen again.
Amen.

SPOILER ALERT
If you DVR Design Star and haven't watched yet (*cough cough, Mallory*) you might want to skip this part.

And friends, the time came last night on Design Star to bid a fond farewell,
or just a farewell,
to her-


Her quote of the night-
"Well, I've had my wedding published in three national magazines..."
yada yada yada.
Sheesh.
Her contributions to the reception were just plain sad.
Ah well...
good-bye, Cathy!
Have fun bossing someone else around!

Have a great Tuesday everyone!
