feelin' FABULOUS friday...

hello and HAPPY friday!
WOW...i can NOT believe how the week has just flown by...my days no longer seem like 24 hours in a day but rather about 2-3!!  it's really a wonderful feeling to be doing something that i know is exactly what i am meant to be doing...living my dream and ENJOYING every single moment!

i was at the store yesterday with my fabulous friend Michelle...i so very much enjoyed having her there with me...sharing this dream of mine with her {SHE IS a huge part of helping me get to this point in my life - i will share more about that in another post!}!  then...as i was working on a couple of projects IN the store, i stopped to just FEEL the moment - what i love the most about being there is the energy i feel while i am there - 
i feel simply HAPPY.
EXCITED. 
and a rush of POSITIVE energy...
yep IT is exactly what i am supposed to be doing!
all the pieces are just falling into place...
exactly as they should be! 

i have also more than enjoyed all of the time i have been able to spend with my family... my mom & dad might just be my #1 cheerleaders!  :)  we have gotten to spend TONS of time together - and i will always treasure that!

i had a little photo shoot the other day as i attempt to figure out HOW i am wanting to display everything IN the store...i used my ONLINE packaging in the photo's below.


if you order from my shop on etsy -
each item will come gift wrapped in a cute little envelope,
 along with a little clothes pin attached...
each one reading an inspirational message.

some other random vintage glam photo's...
this is the "feel" i want for my store -
shabby chic...with a vintage glam twist...and a wee bit whimsical!





my best friends parents picked up this typewriter at an auction for me -
I LOVE IT...and it REALLY works!
so i have been using it on some of my crafty projects!
i think i will have this on the MAIN table as you walk into my store...

have a GREAT DAY!
