In Bloom Set

Another favorite of mine is perfume. And fragrances in general. I recently ordered the In Bloom Set, from Avon. It was a special. I'm pretty sure I got the set for $25. There is a body spray, lotion, and shower gel. It's a great deal. In Bloom is also a very nice scent. Very light. It's fresh, but slightly floral. I am really enjoying this set. Eventually, I'd like to get the fragrance as well. But I'm going to wait until it goes on sale.

Inspiration

This picture has inspired me. To get my Sewing Room in order. Well, as in order as I can get it, right now. Because when we remodeled our house, a couple of years ago, my Sewing Room got a little...well I have a door that needs to be closed off. And windows that need to be finished off, from the inside.

Yes, my Sewing Room is the only room that hasn't been remodeled. The light fell from the ceiling. I had to manage to get it back up. I'm almost positive, that it's not safe in it's current state. It's pretty bad. My husband and I were talking. It's the next and final room, for us to work on. I want to take out the old wood paneling. And I want to paint the walls a soft and cheerful color.

I want to get organized. I want to be very organized. Put things on my shelves. Have my supplies easily available. That's what I want. Because right now, it's not a functioning space. And that saddens me.

How bad is it? My sewing machine and my serger are in another room. I do most of my sewing in our kitchen or living room. And it stresses me out. Because I feel like it makes a big mess. So I want to get my Sewing Room in order.

Now I just need to make some time. And I really need to attack this space. Because I'm tired of losing my supplies. And having to repurchase things. I'm ready to have a room all to myself again. I miss the days, when I would lock myself in my Sewing Room, and would sew for hours and hours!

Nail Polish

I've never really been a makeup person. Or someone who spent a lot of time on my hair. But my nails, that's a whole other story.

I grow out my nails. Most people think they are the fake ones. But they're not. They're mine. I probably polish my nails 3 times a week. I use all sorts of nail polish. Nothing too expensive. Mostly the kind you can buy at Wal-Mart or Target. 2 of my favorite brands are Avon and Sally Hanson.

They're just great quality. Lost a long time. And come out with some nice colors. Yes, I'm that woman that orders 4 bottles of nail polish and 2 pairs of shoes from Avon. And no makeup. But I just love all the fun colors of nail polish.

I recently found this page with these beautiful nail polishes. And I've fallen in love! I feel like I need to go to Wal-Mart right away. And buy a few of these. I like all the colors! Maybe just maybe, I can collect them all before they discontinue this set of colors.

His and Hers Finery

I found another pattern at e-Pattern Central. For the His and Hers Finery Set. You get a pattern for this dress and a bonnet, and a little boys outfit. I just love the little sleeves on this dress. It's all made out of cotton thread. But isn't it beautiful? And only $3.29! I really need to start shopping online. There are some amazing deals out there!

Baby Confection Hat

This is a good reason to learn how to knit. Look at this little hat! It looks like a cupcake. I've looked for a crochet pattern for a similar hat. But I can't find one. This would be a good reason for me to finally learn how to knit. I've been crocheting for over 40 years. But I've never learned how to knit. This could be the time for me to try it.

Sweetheart Poncho

A while back, I seen this pattern. It's called the Sweetheart Poncho and sells for $2.99 on e-Patterns Central. But I never buy things online. I might just have to break down and order this pattern. I've been making some things and putting them away in a Hope Chest for my daughter. One day, I'm hoping, she'll have a few kids. And this little poncho, I really want to make it.
