More Random thoughts....

I have been a little busy!

First let me say, I apologize for waiting over a month to log onto the blog. The long summer days have made me crazy!

We are having our Second Annual Open House at the Ravine Gardens State Park Conference Center, on Wednesday, July 25, from noon until 7pm. Please come by and see all our new bags. There are several new designs in the works, and 240 yards of NEW FABRIC is on its way!!! YAY!!!! So there will be plenty of new things, including the makeup bags and checkbook covers.

Over 400 bags will be on display. We also have a guest designer joining us, Nancy Vorasso. "Creations by Nance" makes the most amazing vintage-style aprons, as well as crayon bags (every child should have one!!!!) tea towels, golf towels, and much more! We look forward to seeing you there. If you would like me to send you a printed invitation, please go back to the website, and click on the "Contact Us" link, and send me your address....or just your email and we will send your an "E-vite"!!!

My little dogs are wonderful...Miss Ellie, the black one with the clown hat, she is a little snooty...I have no idea where she gets that from!!! She was not the least bit thrilled when I put the hat on her...she is way too sophisticated for that! Bessie, Moo as we call her--because she looks like a little milk cow--is a riot. She is our little country girl. Karl says she is his hunting dog. How funny is that, Mr. Macho has a weiner dog as his hunting dog!!! Don't tell him, but she really loves me best! Then there is Sandra Dee, the newest edition. She is wild. The picture of her on her Burberry bed with the camouflage blanket.....that suits her perfectly! She is the city girl, and the country girl all rolled up in one...kind of like me! :)

Then there are the Unfurry kids, they keep me busy as well! 2 high-school juniors in my house. There is NEVER a dull moment. There is also never a moment when at least 2 phone lines aren't being used, and the computer is occupied 24/7.

I am trying to get motivated to redecorate my studio. I have paint chips and fabric samples. That is as far as I have gotten. Of course, I am ready to redecorate my whole house....but that is way to overwhelming. I am thinking of hiring someone to come in and tell me what they think I should do. We have lived here for 5 years....and I love the way I decorated everything, but now I am ready for something different. I think. Karl said I could do whatever I wanted and he would help me anyway that he could, but he WILL NOT PAINT. Anyway, think I will just start with the studio and a Pottery Barn Catalogue, and I will be good to go!

I am hoping you all had a wonderful 4th of July! I am hoping all is well with each and everyone of you. Thank you for stopping by my tiny little corner of the world....

Have a great Sunday,

XO
