Down to the last wire


and I feel pretty prepared. I can't believe it has already been 6 weeks! The house has been in complete disarray, so Kev and Mochi will be pretty happy to get a cleaned up space again. The photos is a make shift display of what it may look like tomorrow at the boutique.


It's been fun creating all this stuff and I'm excited mostly, to see how the public reacts to my stuff. I know most of you can't come because of job duties but, if the boutique is successful I may start thinking of opening an on-line shop. Hmmm...we'll see.

One last time:
Holiday Boutique

HAPPY TURKEY DAY!


May your stuffing be tasty,
May your turkey be plump,
May your potatoes and
gravy have never a lump,
May your yams be delicious
and your pies take a prize and
May your Thanksgiving dinner
stay off your thighs!

Up to my ears in...


Yo Yo garland! Another product that will be in the boutique. It will be sold by the foot. It can be used to decorate a lovely tree or a mantle or even a gift! I love it. I keep saying to myself "am I going to be ok with letting go of these hand-made items?" I can just imagine me at the boutique "Ah, I decided that garland is not for sale, oh you're interested in the pixie monster? they're not for sale either, in fact nothing is for sale, shop is closed." Hee hee.
Well, I have not falling short of keeping myself busy, that's for sure! I'm working steadily on boutique projects. I am also taking a sewing class too. Which I regret signing up for at this time (what was I thinking? right before the holidays?)

These Pixie Monsters are ready to go:

They all have such great character!

and last night I worked on the marketing side of business

Business cards, bags and such!

Hope you've all had a good Monday!

:Peter Gibbons: Hey, guys.
Michael Bolton: What's up, G?
Peter Gibbons: Want to go to Chotchkie's? Get some coffee?
Samir: Oh, it's a little early.
Peter Gibbons: I gotta get outta here. I think I'm gonna lose it.
Female Temp: Uh-oh. Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mondays."

More to come soon!

Big O' Bowl...


of noodles! On a cold night I love this comfort food. If I had to choose one food to live on forever, it would be noodles!
Well, I've been working steadily on boutique stuff. Pixie Monsters are being created day by day.

Hope you have had a good week so far. I gotta get back to sewing.

"I have noodles in my nostrils. I have noodles on my nose. There are noodles on my cheeks and chin and
dripping down my clothes. I've got more upon my forehead. Some are sticking to my neck.
It's completely disconcerting. I'm a noodle-covered wreck. I can see them on my kneecaps,
and I know they're in my shoes. (When I stand they're somewhat squishy and I feel them start to ooze.)

There are several in my pockets. There's a handful in my hair. And I'm pretty sure that some are even
in my underwear. So try not to do what I did (I'm a total nincompoop), and don't ever fall asleep
while eating noodle soup."

Boo...


Hoo! Halloween is over! I hate when such a fun day has to come to an end. I had a VERY last minute shindig last night.

I had a great last minute idea...

Just happen to have severed fingers laying around.
Last weekend I did a little bit of thrifting and found these:

It was one of the best thrifting trips in a long time. For some unknowing reason I LOVE hot air balloons. So, you can imagine the excitment when I found the fabric! And I love the owl piece. It's one of those fabrics that is going to be savored for a long time!
Lastly, I been working very hard on making items for the boutique...here's the evidence:

Which reminds me...I better get back to work! But not without a quote.

"There's a goblin at my window,
A monster by my door.
The pumpkin at my table
Keeps on smiling more and more.
There's a ghost who haunts my bedroom,
A witch whose face is green.
They used to be my family,
Till they dressed for Halloween."

P.S. Pumpkin number 3 Romy and Martin's is the winner (big pumpkin eating little pumpkin), number 2 Geri and Barbara's (Chanel pumpkin) could of won if he didn't cheat!
