Thanking people!

I didn't get around to do my Saturday randomness yesterday since an horrible headache forced me to go to sleep at 7.30 pm (I didn't mind too much tho!). So I will skip that for next Saturday, but I will go ahead and thank all the people that featured me this week.

♥ I want to thank Stanza at The Good, The Bad, And The Gotta Have. She reviewed my blog and my Artfire shop and I had fun being interviewed by her. Both my blog and my shop scored a "Gotta Have" rate and you can read about it here: Blog review, Shop review and my interview.

♥ Friday morning I woke up to a nice email update for a blog that I like a lot: The Eclectic Element. Kayla, the owner, comments often over here and she was very sweet in featuring me in her "Supporting my tribe" series. Your can read all about it here

♥ Then the morning proceeded with a message form Venus that informed my my round washcloths were featured on he blog, Happy Find, with other cool ruffled items.

♥ In the afternoon, I received another message from Monarchdancer telling me my cupcake key chain is included in her treasury


So I think I can say in all fairness that at the end on the weekend I felt LOVED which is just appropriate since is Valentine's Day Today.
And to wish you all an Happy Valentine's Day, I'm gonna share this video with all of you!

I got mail: Thank you Mandie!


Some of you might remember when I featured Mandie d her tutorial for making cupcake candles on her blog Taking time for mommy a while back.

She was having a giveaway for her cupcake candles a little bit before Christmas and guess what???? I was the winner!!
And yesterday I got Mandie package in the mail and I must say that it felt like Christmas all over!
In addition to my 2 cupcake candles, she included a cupcake bath scrub (the top is a sugar scrub the bottom is a salt soak), perfume, a really cute silver tone watch from Avon (and a mini bubble bath.....Gosh, she sure spoiled me, didn't she??? I guess was my lucky day!!
I can't wait to have a nice bath my my cupcake bath soak and lite my cupcakes candles...they don't only look cute, but also smell fantastic!!
Thanks Mandie, you made a SAHM feeling like a princess!

Featuring: Fig Tree Boutique


Snack Bag Set ReUsable Eco Friendly Kitty in Paris, $5 by Fig Tree Boutique

I had the pleasure of working out a very nice trade with Elaine, the owner of the Fig Tree Boutique.
I was in need for some nice sandwich and snack bags since my kids use them in their lunch boxes at school and I was sick to buy and toss away the plastic ones.
So, one day while I was thinking to start sewing my own, I came across the Fig Tree Boutique on twitter and Elaine graciously agreed to trade with me....YAY Double score!
So my daughter Michelle got the pink ones above while Gabriel got some with a superhero fabric that he fell in love with!

So we put them to good use and that's what I have to say about them: LOVE THEM!!!
If someone is in the market for sandwich and snack bags, I will definitely recommend them!

Elaine craftsmanship is really nice, the stitches very accurate. In the sets that I got for my kids the bags have different sizes: 6 1/2" wide by 4 1/2" deep for the large bag enough for a little sandwich and 6 1/4" wide X 4" deep on the small bag with plenty room for sliced fruit, crackers, cookies or cereals with a turn flap for closure that insure nothing will spill out. And the best part of all: the inside is lined with no rip nylon with sealed seams, so the crumbs don't get stuck but come off easily with a shake and I can just wipe them off to clean or wash them in the washer if they're really dirty.

I think this is every mom dream! Funny prints for little ones, easy to clean and eco-friendly for Mother Earth.....so I need to say more????

Go visit Fig Tree Boutique and get your own!
