Fantastic Friday!!!

Do you want to know why today is FANTASTIC? Well, I'll tell you...I've finally hit the 20 lb mark! WOO HOO!!! I have lost 20.4 lbs. I still have a ways to go, but the last few weeks have been sloooooow losing - so this week I'm pleased to say the weight loss has picked up!!

Another FANTASTIC something?.... Shawn at Seriously is having a fantastic giveaway to celebrate her 100th post. Go check it out! GO! Right Now!

Last - I've been honored with awards from some FANTASTIC ladies. I will be back before the day is over to tell you about them and pass them along!

I'm sorry I haven't been by to visit many of you recently - I have been seriously lacking in computer time. I've had my hands full preparing for a boutique AND a bridal shower I'm throwing with my mom. Well, the boutique was cancelled due to a booking conflict at the venue, so a little sigh of relief there. And the shower is tomorrow, sooo by tomorrow night I will have the freedom to visit you all to my hearts content!!! Don't give up on me - I'll be by soon - I promise!

That is awesome girl!

I lost 35, gained 10, lost 6....

My final goal is still 14 pounds away I have just completely lost the desire to work out. You would think that with my vacation rapidly approaching that will require me to sit on the beach in-between my two size 2 friends would be a little incentive...NOPE not at all.

Hand Made for Fall - A party and a Giveaway!

I've been a busy girl! I have been wanting to do a giveaway for Fall, and when my fab friend Heidi revealed that her Monthly Craft Challenge for October would be Fall-themed crafts, I thought "YES! I will do a giveaway of Fall items - handmade by me!" So today I'm linking up with Heidi , and introducing my Handmade For Fall Giveaway as I show you what I've made for Heidi's party ! Sound good? First, a while back I showed you some coasters that I made, but it was clear back when I first started blogging, so I'm going to show you again with this new seasonal set! This idea has been floating around blog land, and I've seen several different variations. Here's how I do it. You will need: paper napkins, 4x4 ceramic tiles, 4x4 cork squares, MOD PODGE (what else?), sponge brushes (not shown), and polyurethane (not shown). Start by cutting your napkin down to a manageable size, slightly bigger than your tile. Next spread a layer of mod podg onto the t...

Mod Podge to the Rescue

Have you noticed that eggs and nests seem to be a common theme in home decor - especially with people making some decor changes for spring? I've seen some pretty cute stuff! For example - what do you think of these? If you like this look, you can get it at Williams-Sanoma. You'll pay $36 for the eggs, and $68 for 1 glass hurricane. They don't include the greenery! Sheesh! Maybe you could go online and find the whole look, already put together, like this: You'll pay $39 for that teeny one, and if you'd like a larger one - you'll shell out $89! Good thing I'm the Queen of Mod Podge! Remember this beauty that I found at the DI for $5? Well, I gathered up my trusty mod podge, the left over scrap book paper from this project, some plastic eggs that I got for 79 cents at Walmart, and a bag of moss that was around $2, also from Walmart. I mod podged the eggs closed so they wouldn't pop open while I was working with them, then I cut the scrapbook paper into ...
