This Week

This Thursday I lost my grandmother to cancer.  She had been fighting this painful disease for some time now, so I am at peace knowing she is in a better place.  She will certainly be missed.

Monday night I was invited to bring my jewelry to a Ladies Night Out event and had a table next to 3 of my favorite jewelry ladies-3 Divas Studio!  Their display put mine to shame, and they have really fun, easy, boho style jewelry.  They only gave us a small 6 foot table space, so it's hard to do alot with that, but here's how 3 Divas set theirs up:


That's Rhonda and Connie, 2 of the 3 Divas.  Love them!!




My husband took me out to the movies this week.  I wanted to see Bridesmaids since the second I saw the first preview on T.V.  It was hillarious!!  I loved it.  Don't get me wrong, I love a good chick flick cry your eyes out kind of movie, but we need more movies like this for women.  We like a good laugh too!  It was a little bit raunchy, a little romantic, and super funny. 

Remember when I asked you for your opinions on a fabric for my lamp shade here?  Well the fabric finally came in this week and I love it!  But, I found another fabric online that I really like now and am not sure if I should order it also to see what I like better.  This is the fabric that arrived this week:


And this is the other fabric that I found this week which is starting to make me second guess the polka dot:

What do you think??  Now I am really torn between the two!

Anyway, I am getting ready to head out to have a nice girl's day that involves my Mom, my sister, and a pedicure!  Woohoo!  Hope you all have a nice weekend as well!

  10. Sorry to hear about the loss of your grandma. I lost my Buppa back in December and miss him a lot. I hope your family and friends are surrounding you with comfort.

    I am typically a polka dot girl...but in this case I vote for the new find! Very unique.
