It seems I've been absent from the blogosphere longer than I planned! I just got back last night from a whirlwind trip to Philly for one of my friend Joan's fabulous parties. I was Leslie Hall from Leslie and the LYs, per Joan's request. Here's my favorite picture from the night:
Yes, that's me, and no, I'm not wearing a prosthetic butt. That's au natural, baby. I got so drunk I kept doing karate kicks and yelling, "GOLD LEGGINS!!" in a high-pitched voice at the top of my lungs. It was amazing, but I played the please-God-I-don't-wanna-puke game the next morning until I got to the airport and had to sprint to catch my flight. If exercise is the cure for a hangover I think I've just found a reason to exercise. Because clearly my health, looks, and clothes fitting aren't cutting it (see above picture).
I also bought some AWESOME fabric from my favorite store ever, Cloth & Bobbin in Narberth, PA. If I wasn't so lazy I would totally take a picture and post it here. Maybe I'll get unlazy later, but probably not. My throat hurts and I'm tired, so I'll probably just lay here in front of the fire that Nick built until I fall asleep. Good times.
I've been lazily making more jewelry, but I'm waiting on a supply order, so I'm kind of stuck until it gets here, but I am thinking of some fabulous baubles to make! In the meantime, I've been working on some felt bracelets and headbands. I'll hopefully post those sometime this week. As always, feedback is appreciated greatly! I'll post more when I've got something else interesting to say. Until then, just know that my life = student teaching, sleeping, church stuff, and making jewelry. So that's about it.
Holler!!

Just a quick note
...to say hello! I'm still around--my ear infection is much better, and I've had naps for the past two days so I'm feeling fabulous! I just wanted to post some pictures of the necklaces I just made. I'm not sure if they'll make it to my Etsy shop, since I'm selling at Mia Alexander Salon also, so I wanted to show them off here!
Enjoy...

Vote for me!
Please take a moment to vote for my Migration Earrings in the SC Etsy Street Team's September Creative Challenge! Here's the link: http://bit.ly/DSGp4. The earrings feature honey-gold aventurine coin beads and brass birds in flight.
Thank you for the kind words and sympathy for our loss--Kevin the kitten is sorely missed!! We are thankful that we still have two sweet kittens left from the litter, and they seem to be flourishing. I don't really have much more news, except that I bought two yards of fabric from Tonic Living!!! You're jealous, I know. I finally found the PERFECT fabric for the mid-century mod chairs. I'll take pics when it comes in. SO excited!!
Funny quotes from kids in my kindergarten class today:
Gracie, after getting up from Rest & Read: "Whatcha doin', Mrs. Sharky?" (Imagine this being said with a lisp. Too cute.)
Keniya, while talking about safety: "If you can have a fire in your house the alarm clock can smell it!"
I love kindergarten.
Happy almost-Friday, everyone!!
