I'm back! The last month has been an absolute whirlwind! I am not one to admit things like this, but I think I may have slightly over-extended myself. I have compiled a few numbers, mostly to remind myself to NEVER do this again!
In the last month, I have...
-made 120 of these bad boys, and sold every one of them.
-Dipped 60 caramel apples
- Made 8 batches of cinnamon-bun popcorn
- Dipped 300 oreos in chocolate then sprinkled them with candy canes
- Made over 100 magnet boards
-Made over 75 vinyl signs
- cut 162 blocks...don't have pictures of those yet, they sold out before I could even snap a pic!
- Used 2 cans of gold glitter spray, man I love that stuff.
- Gone through 7 bottles of "barn-red" paint, 4 bottles of black, and 3 bottles of "antique-white"
- had 4 shows and was in charge of a project for my church's "Super Saturday" that had a record breaking 80 signups. gulp. I nearly cried when I saw the numbers. A big thanks to my sweet dad who cut and shipped me the 30 boards I was short!!
-Pulled one official all-nighter, and about 20 "up-til'-3am-crafting-nights"
- had one VERY patient husband who has put up with my eternal mess paints, wood, and vinyl scraps EVERYWHERE. Thanks Darling...I owe you big time.
I think that about does it.
Now, I don't want to give you false notions of being the woman that does it all, because I don't. For the last month, my kids have looked like this...
and this...at least we got the boots on for the day. (I actually had to crop a COMPLETELY naked Jack out of the picture, I think you can still see a little snippet of his boney bum on the left of the picture!)
I had a great time at our shows, but I am most definately looking forward to some down time with the hubby and kiddos, doing some chistmas shopping, and tackling the 12 loads of laundry that's stacked up in my bed room.
OH! I forgot to tell you all, I will be officially kicking off my etsy shop this week, and there will be a great giveaway involved...so stay tuned!
