Roses, Bows, & Moustaches .... OH MY!

I just listed a few new items to my Etsy. I am excited about it!!! For one I finally got some pink felt. I have had numerous convos on Etsy asking for pink flower headbands.... So I finally made some! The pink is so yummy... Like bubblegum ! FUN FUN! I also got some other wonderful colors I will be listing soon. (The turquoise is to die for! )

Pink Rose Headband$15

Moustache Pin $5

Fun stuff! I have been making some new styles of head pieces as well. I am going to try to make some pillbox hats soon. I need to go to a millinery store to get some forms. Should be exciting. I am already planning a fun winter collection. I think some more "fur" will be in the mix. What do you guys think? Love? Hate? Suggestions of some things you would like to see??

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUAN!!!!!

Juan is now 24! I am starting to feel old... We are "almost 30" aaahhhhh so weird to think about. I guess Juan has seen more than most grown men but still I think of us as kids! His birthday actually turned out wonderfully despite our lack of planning because Juan just got Recalled...

We went to Javiers in Newport Beach. Pretty much my all time favorite restaurant. It used to be in Laguna then they moved it to Newport... Now its full of cougars !!

It actually is a super cool restaurant and sssoooo delish!!! MMMMmmmmm mmmm We went with another couple we hang out with all the time. It was so fun!

Juan got super drunk and was making us all laugh because he turns into a sap when he drinks. It was sort of semi-sweet we were all sad since Juan was getting sent to 29 Palms (near palm springs) until November when he gets deployed to Afghanistan for 1 year. We ended up making the best out of the night.

He was doing shots and I was sippin' on my Strawberry Margarita (best one I've ever had)

Here is a blooper shot but my make up looked good so I thought I would add it.

its my porn star smokey eye hahaha

OHHH and the best part... There is only Spanish waiters at javiers. No waitresses. When it's your birthday they sing and give you flan. The catch... they feed it to you. Juan was drunk so took part of this. We were laughing so hard. If he was sober I think he wouldn't have been such a good sport.

To say the least we all had a blast. This is one day I wont forget. Knowing I wont be seeing Juan everyday like I am used to makes me appreciate the time we have together. Now I just have to figure out what the heck I am going to do for a year when Juan is gone... UGH... It makes me sick inside!

Patchwork



So its been a few weeks since Patchwork and just now I am posting... I lag major. Since my life has taken a complete 180 I think I have an excuse. I am pretty sure I will keep on top of things now since I will have some more time.... ( I say that now )

Patchwork was so fun. I think its on my top shows as far as cool people go. They just have a lot going on good music, good food, fun funky people. People who "GET IT". (Unfortunatly the Penis behind the ear boy wasn't there) They also have great vendors! Fun to look at everything!
My friend Chelsea who I have been friends with since beauty school came along. She LOVED the craft show, It was like I took her to Disneyland or something. She was thanking me for letting her come... hahah she was my free labor and was thanking me.... Thats why I love her....

So to be nice I bought her a Shrimp sushi pillow by Eon Creative. She was obsessed with it. They make super cute things. Plus they are the cutest couple ever Stella and Charlie... So wonderful!

And since my moustache ornaments were such a hit at the last Patchwork show I made some moustache pins and sticks.

Here is Juan modeling a felt moustache... He could actually grow one almost if not more impressive but since he is a Marine again he has no facial hair (Thank God)

In case you were wondering... It was hotter than a popcorn fart... literally melting hot. Luckily I was smart enough to bring my parasols. I thought for 2 hours I might puke... I've come to conclusion that I might possibly be whiter then I thought... Me and the heat don't get along... Me and the cold dont get along either... So I guess I am just a California Girl. The best part was I brought some "special drinks". Chelsea and I started drinking at 10:30am... So white trash but it was HOT! It was funny and helped me sort of forget the heat but possibly may be the reason I felt sick for 2 hours. HAHAHAHAHA

Gus came along with his Pa pa Juan and I felt bad for him. He was hot so he laid under the table in the shade. He also met 2 other Boston Terriers... He loved them. Everyone loved him and fed him ice. Hes such an attraction. People love him. How couldn't you? He has the cutest face on the planet! So yeah. This also was my most profitable show FUN FUN FUN! I love MONEY!!! It bought Juan his birthday present, a new Radio for his truck... and of course wonderful things for myself!! HAHAH Thanks everyone for a great show! This Friday is Cerritos Handmade Brigade come and check it out!!! I'll be there with all my Handmade Brigade Girls!!!
