i'm doing my happy dance!

HOLY MOSES I MADE IT THROUGH THE WEEK...albeit a bit more tired then i want to be but YAY it is FRIDAY!!!


the mister is picking me up at work on gilbert...**squee**  and we are going to our favorite pub downtown called the chieftain which carries my all time favorite beer...smithwickes..the brewery that makes guinness and the chieftain makes a mean guinness stew that is just so amazing! after this l.o.n.g work week i just can't wait to relax and sip on some beer.

after we are then going on a night bike ride with sf bike party. this is our first time and i can't wait! there are 4 legs to the ride and each leg ends at a park where people get off and dance, drink and eat! it should be fun and will tell you all how it went...i can't wait!

sunday we are going to the alameda flea market...insert another **squee** and a jump of delight! this is one of my favorite places and there is just so much treasure just waiting to be bought!

i am working on some new crafts that i will be finishing up on sunday that i CAN"T WAIT to share because every time i see them they make me giggle with delight! ibut first i want to take fancy pictures of them before i reveal them to ya'll  :D


i also just bought this book handmade marketplace and have been reading it every spare minute that i have, it is just so so inspiring and motivating which i totally needed this week!! it is so easy to ready and has great advice. i highly recommend it! i am so determined to make my crafts my full time job...i am ready for it and this is the year, i can feel it!!

wish you all a wonderful weekend and i want to thank you all for the encouraging comments throughout the week. they made it sooo much easier to go to work!!

newly crafted

i wanted to share with you all my newest craft that i finished on sunday! i am so happy to have them finally finished! i bought the vintage fabric at the alameda flea market on 4th of july and new exactly what i wanted to do with it when i got it! i had some of the wooden beads laying around from something i don't even remember now because it has been so long and picked up the larger wooden beads at the local craft store. i love the color of the fabric mixed with the beads...gives that extra bit of hippiness i like :) i will be adding them to my shop along with a dress i found...one craft project done on my 4 simple goals list and about 10 or more projects left! i gotta keep truckin'



on a side note:  spread the love: i can't tell you how good this week has felt and all for just doing little simple things to others! thanks again melissa for creating such a wonderful project. check out lavender biscuit..she has a really great idea and has been doing a fantastic job!!

yesterday i called my grandparents and talked to both of them for a bit. they are soo cute! they both like to be on the phone when you call..it is really sweet. i wish i had a picture to share with you so you could see them!

also planing a special date for the mister that of course involves a nice bike ride and more! will share with you later!
