2010 - Your Color is Turquoise
First of all I didn't know that they picked a color for the year, but if they had to pick one......I can get behind turquoise! My craft studio is Turquiose/Aqua, so I am completely in love with the color.
In celebration of Turquoise winning "Color of the Year" (I assume there was an award show I missed somewhere) here are some beautiful pics.

There is even a whole website called "House of Turquoise"!
Congrats!

This week...
I'm working on a scarf. The pattern is called Queen Anne's Lace, it's a tad more complicated than I'm used to. I have to remember more elements...but once you get going it starts to come naturally. I'm pretty excited about it. I think when I finish this one I'm going to give it to my roomie because she has been drooling over it since I started it :-). I love making things for people! Here's a peek, it's totally unfinished but soon it'll be a full size scarf.
Hope you're all having a good week so far!
Be crafty!

Inventory Photoshoot!!!!
A little "behind the scene" action at the HelloLadies Photoshoot - yes we do make our models hold our stuff :) It was a little chilly outside and of course Jordan and Jessica didn't bring their jackets!!!! Crazy girls! Krystle didn't bring her camera....we fired her, until she pulled out a cute hat she had crocheted....then we re-hired her. We had a ton of fun!
And here are the finished pics! Some of them....
Owl B lovin' U
I have officially started to love owls. At first I was opposed because everyone in the world was in love with owls, but what can I say ... I drank the kool-aid, and joined in. Here are a few of my fav owl finds on Etsy, go check out the shops and give them some love.
Have a great start to your week!

Hello Ladies Man Edition: Brand and Mandy
Hello all, this post is all about the love story between my super cute hubby Brand and me!
The above pic was taken on our 7th wedding anniversary, we are going on 9th this year.
Soooo, our story doesn't really have a "beginning" place, Brand was just the friend of a friend who started coming to church. I noticed him right off the bat, because there were only 4 guys around my age in the church, and one of them was my brother....so eww. I really didn't pay much attention to him, because I was waiting for my dream guy who was suppose to have blonde hair and sing to me. :-)
I guess the first time I ever "thought" about him in a way other than a friend was when he showed up to church in a suit .... I am a sucker for a guy in a suit. BUT, I still didn't like him in that way, everyone was trying to set us up, but I didn't like him (and I hold true to that statement - people). And I wasn't going to waste my time on a guy that I didn't like, no matter how cute he was in a black suit with a blue tie...... I digress.
Anyways.....We had been flirting around for about 4 or 5 months and then he gave me a rose at a friends b-day party and that was all it took ..... yup, a rose won me over. (a little sad, I know.) We started dating right before Christmas, he asked me to marry him in February, and we were married August 11, 2001. People have often told us we were too young to get married (i was 20 he was 23), but I disagree completely. I knew he was the one, and I wasn't going to date for 2 or 3 years, when I knew. We were ready, we both had steady jobs, cars paid off, no debt, and were in love. What more do you need?
We've been extremely happy for going on 9 years and I have never regretted any choice that I have made regarding our marriage. I never believed people when they said that you will love your spouse more with each passing year ... it's true, I love him SO much more than I did on our wedding day, and it excites me to know I will love him even more 10 years from now.....
L for Love
