Discount Office Supplies

I'm kind of obsessed with office supplies. I ask for new post-its and sharpie pens for birthdays and Christmases. So finding this website was pretty cool. I'm probably way behind, and I'm sure everyone already knows about this place.


There's no gimmick here...I don't get anything special if you buy something. I just thought I'd share a money-saving website for office supply enthusiasts...or people who actually need this stuff for work. There prices are way lower than most office supply stores, and they usually have a free shipping offer. Right now, it's free shipping if you spend $75, but last week it was only $50.

Still Getting Ready for Saturday

I've been reworking my jewelry display and even added some new earring holders!






I made these new holders out of chicken wire, and I think they are just too cute. I've spray painted some of them pink, yellow, and green. I can't wait to show these off on Saturday!!

Getting ready for Saturday

I'm working on setting up my display for Saturday's Market Day sale. Here's a rough preview of my table...let me know what you think!








Of course, this is my "rough draft". Nothing will still be in bags, and everything will be priced. I'm also going to have four more frames and some new jewelry displays hanging from the sides on my booth. I'm getting excited for Saturday!!

Five Things Friday

So I'm linking up with the simple girl for the first time for 5 Things Friday!

1. I got paid today...that automatically makes today a good day.

2. I'm trying to use all my free time to get ready for my July Market Day sale. I have to finish making several pieces of jewelry, price everything, make an inventory list, and figure out I'm going to display everything. I have a week to get everything ready!

3. I'm really craving mexican cheese dip.

4. I wore my perfect rosette necklace again today. It seriously goes with almost every outfit I have! Today I paired it with a white t-shirt and an orange knee-length skirt. See how I wore it last time here.

5. I'm getting really excited to see Cars 2. Am I alone?

Bling Bracelets

I'm going to start sharing the new pieces I've been working on with you. I've already given y'all a sneak peak into my "Bling" collection, but here's closer look at the cuff bracelets I've been working on.




These ribbon wrapped cuff bracelets are truly statement pieces. The costume rhinestones are sure to dress up any outfit. I love the bright colors sure to transition through all seasons.


The white and yellow bracelets feature vintage rhinestones, while the purple and sea green cuffs have newer stones.

What do y'all think??

Updates

Well, I'm back from the beach and had a great time! I almost finished The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I have 2 chapters left, so I'm hoping to be able to finish it this week. I know that that sounds pathetic, but I usually spend my free time making jewelry when I'm at home.

And I need to be making jewelry. Those of you who fan Hand Made and Lovely on Facebook know that I have a spot in my hometown's July Saturday Market. I'm very excited that I got all my application materials in on time,  because there is usually a waiting list. So, I'm busy trying to use up all my materials and make as much jewelry as possible. I've also got some great ideas flowing for my booth. I'm going to have a hand-painted sign that I'm really excited about. I'd love some tips from anyone who has been a vendor at one of these things before!!

I got back from vacation and was thrown right back into the real world. I was a part of my first install yesterday for work, and it was so exciting!! I spent most of the day unwrapping really expensive furniture and accessories in a Penthouse apartment. The install is continuing today and tomorrow. I'm hoping I'll get to meet our famous client on Wednesday!!

I'm going to do my best to keep up blogging during this week. I really want to share all the new designs I've been creating.
