Etsy Favorites - Arrow Love

1 | 2 | 3 | 4

I made my first Etsy Treasury! These are my favorites of the items listed in the treasury. You can see the full list here. I've noticed the coolness of arrows lately, and I've fallen in love. They're so sweet and simple. I tend to hate things that EVERYONE likes just for the fact that everyone likes them. haha Trends and fads usually annoy me. So I really annoy myself when I like popular things : /

I want all of these things BADLY. Anyone feel like buying me some presents?

Pop Up Shop Saturdays - Roundtable Goods

It's official! It's Sooo Fluffy will be participating in a local shop's event. The sweet shop Roundtable Goods is hosting Pop Up Shop Saturdays through May. I was so excited to receive the invitation! I'm not at the point where I can pay monthly rent to have my items in the shop, so I was thrilled when Juanita contacted me about this great opportunity. Instead of committing to an entire month or period of months to have my inventory in her shop, I get to set up a booth on April 27 and work all my own sales. 

I'm currently working on lots of spring colored fluffies for the Pop Up Shop event. I also am setting aside a few fluffies because It's Sooo Fluffy is coming to a Midtown shop in Houston, TX! More details on that later :)

Any tips or advice for pop up shops? 

Craft Show Display Inspiration

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6

I've only done one craft show so far and I absolutely loved it. My setup was pretty simple. I have a long table, some cute little wire baskets I painted silver and I even made some of those cake pan tier things (that totally broke and fell apart when I was packing up my display to go home). I've been invited to do Pop Up Shop Saturdays at Roundtable Goods here in Houston! I was so happy to receive that email! I only have a couple weeks to prepare. This time around I am really thinking of doing small crates painted in white with my wire baskets. I want to keep it simple so my colorful fluffies really pop. The ideal setup with be like #3 but it seems that would be pretty difficult to load in my car and setup at an indoor shop haha I'll keep it sweet and simple :)

Have you done craft shows or pop up shops? Any tips?

Happy Friday

I wish I could write like that. Do you have fancy handwriting? Mine is never the same. It's so weird. My handwriting depends on what type of pen I'm using, the mood I'm in, and how fast my boss is talking to me and I have to write every freaking thing down because I KNOW I won't remember 10 seconds later. 

Speaking of my crazy boss...WE HAVE NO PATIENTS TODAY! I love when he goes out of town! It is pretty rare, so I cherish these days. I'm usually pretty productive when we don't have patients to see, but it is Friday and I'm ready to get the hell out of here. 

Speaking of getting the hell out of here...I'm getting off work EARLY to drive over to Austin to see my favorites!! It has been way too long since I've visited. We will be celebrating my 25th birthday (even though I turned 25 last week) by hanging out, playing putt putt and drinking A LOT on 6th street. Can't wait :)

What are your weekend plans?

My Birthday Wishlist

 

Happy March people!

Thanks to Pinterest I have a wishlist titled : Gifts for ME. If you’re ever in the mood to buy me presents, I suggest you go there for ideas. OR come up with something awesome all on your own. Surprises are so fun! I never really intended that board to be used by others for inspiration on what to buy me haha It’s just for me. I guess for times when I have extra monies to throw around (which is NEVER). A girl can dream.

Just for fun, I decided to put together a few items together and call that a Birthday Wishlist. I guess I’d say they’re my most favorite things lately. Here it goes…

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9

 

Oh goodness I love shoes. If I ever win the lottery, I plan on buying every chucks and vans in every color. I’d say the same about nail polish. I LOVE nail polish. I’m currently wearing a coral nail polish that makes me smile when I check out my fingernails :) Another thing that makes me smile ALWAYS: Friends. It’s my favorite TV show EVER. I’ve been asking for the complete dvd set since I was aware it existed. Since it’s roughly $200 – no one ever buys it for me. Those things along with the other awesomeness I listed would be super awesome gifts. Just keep them in mind for future reference ;)

When is your birthday? Do you have an awesome birthday wishlist too?

Zoo trip!

I posted recently about how badly I’ve wanted to go to the zoo…AND I FINALLY GOT TO GO! It is more than a little ridiculous that I haven’t been to the zoo in a few years because I live roughly two blocks away from it. Maybe it is because every freakin year our school took us to the Houston Zoo because it was the cheapest thing to do? Well, a few months ago I learned they made some changes. SUPER awesome changes. Sooo, I decided I REALLY wanted to go. BAD. But of course, lack of time or $$ or not being able to schedule a time with someone to go…ya know how it goes. Well, my dad texted me around 6:30 am one morning asking if I wanted to go to the zoo that weekend. Um YES. Throughout the day we made plans, I invited people, blah blah blah…then my dad cancels on me that afternoon. Not a big surprise at all. BUT I said screw it. I’m still going to the damn zoo!
Luckily, my super awesome aunt/mom wanted to go! Her grandson, Ethan had never been. Why in the world hasn’t this kid gone to the zoo at least fifteen times like I had by that age?! Let me tell you, it was hilarious when we brought that kid into the zoo. He was freaking out. FREAKING OUT. So bad that while I was carrying him and showing him the fish can’t jump out the giant water bowls they are in, I put my hands in the air and this kid was holding onto me so tight he stayed there. Like a monkey clinging to a tree. He’d say NO TOUCH! haha I was putting my hands all over the glass to show him they weren’t going to get me or come out. I even pointed out some wimpy looking kids and how they weren’t scared. He didn’t buy it. After a while, he got the hang of it. He realized those animals weren’t out to get him.
He saw a turkey and thought it was pretty cool. At least that is what I’m assuming because he stared at it for a while. The meerkats were pretty darn cute. Oh! The giraffes! I loved them. Ethan did too. He was pretty excited when we saw them. He also really liked all the fake animals way more than the real animals. He got a kick out of the buttons you push that made the animal sounds. Crazy kid.
As you can see in the last picture, he was worn out. It was great. He’s nice when he’s sleeping!

When is the last time you’ve been to the zoo?
