Fun Stuff

Since I've been so boring in the post area lately, I thought I'd make up for it by sharing some websites with you...places you can spend your hard earned money. :) Recently I've been turned on to a few super fun websites. The three I'm sharing today are three super talented ladies (one of them right here in OK!) who make fun handmade products.

The first is The Vintage Pearl. Erin makes way cute hand-stamped jewelry mostly for women but she has recently added some pieces for men AND she has a "ready to ship" shop as well. I have the "dainty initial hearts necklace" (what N got me for Valentine's day) and LOVE it. You can check out her shop (link above) or follow her blog here. She does giveaways and coupons on the blog!

Next is Gussy. She taught herself to sew a couple years ago and she makes all kinds of things that all have her signature freestyle ruffle on them. This is my bag that I just recently ordered (I also have a checkbook cover and small zipped pouch!):

(And yes, that's it sitting on top of the bag and diaper bag that we have packed for the hospital and are NOT using.) Check out her shop (link above) and follow her blog here.

Last, but certainly not least, is Jessica at allorahandmade. She makes jewelry and accessories with pretty handrolled flowers on them...I just ordered a necklace and earrings and can't wait to get them! (Ruffles and flowers...I think maybe I'm "girling it up" for myself because I'm about to have a baby boy and will be very outnumbered in my house...)

Anyway, enjoy looking at all the pretty stuff! And if you have a shop/site you'd like to share, feel free to post it in the comments. I'm always hunting for fun new things!

Still Waiting

That's right. Nothing to report. The house is clean, the yard is taken care of, I've spent the day organizing and backing up pictures on the computers and updating my iPhone to the latest software version. We're as ready as we're going to be, and now we're out of things to do. Maybe I'll get motivated tomorrow but for now I'm still too lazy to take pictures and upload them so only one this time...this about sums up what's going on at our house (other than answering the 45 daily phone calls and texts from family members asking if there's anything they should know).
