Michaels Haul

Hey guys,


I wanted to show everyone a recent haul I did at Michaels craft store!

As I am sure everyone knows by now that Michaels is a touch expensive, but they do have there shining moments. Like a week or so ago I went there on my monthly grocery shop and picked up these great buys.

I know it's a little fuzzy!

So basically I picked up this cute little turnstyle caddy, it's black on the outside with damask on the inside. It has 4 main solid compartments inside that will be holding my tools, then it has 6 soft pockets on the outside, which I think I'm going to keep my dyes and mini stamps in :D This regularly was something like 17$ or 19$ and I got it on clearance for 9.99, Then I picked up these really beautiful swarovski crystal rhinestones in ruby red, a bronze and a lighter bronze (now they were regular price :( , I just had to get them for a necklace though!) Then I got 4 chalk ink stamps in a deep red, bright spring green and bubble gum pink as well as a beautiful sky blue! These were 1.50$ each. Lastly I also got this mini studio g stamp set of three and it comes with another ink pad, I got this for 1.50 as well :D

This little haul was a total of a little over 20$ then I had a coupon for 25% off as well as an old giftcard from a few Christmases ago (there gift cards don't expire or diminish in value with time. Penny for penny is what is on there until it's all spent.). Out of pocket I spent 2$ and some change!

I loved this shop so much, and I can't wait to be able to do it again. So let me know if you want to see more of these!? I love doing hauls when I can :D

A New Day

This week has started off rather swimmingly well. I seem to have lost my insomnia (which was killing me, and not letting me work in the studio) I have since been back in the studio as of Monday and will have new jewelry in the shop daily.

It's Feb 1 a new day, a new me, a new YOU. I'm becoming a firm believer that every day is a new start. Starting over and trying something new, maybe even something that failed in the past.....who says the second, third, fourth time around it wont work or be a success!? Every time you fail your mistakes teach you something. When you learn from your mistakes you tweek things and do it differently the next time.

Today's goal is to get ALL of the new jewelry off my camera and sorted and start editing it! A HUGE task LOL. Let me know what you are doing today :D

Beautiful huh!!???
LOL
I finally crashed one night, and H2B thought he was being funny/cute (whatever) and took this LOL
