Back to school

School's back in session. Summers do fly by, don't they?

That means I've been running around like a chicken with the head cut off for the past couple of weeks. Anytime now I'll fall over.

Just kidding, I've got some fight in me yet. But things are crazy for sure.

But, I did manage to make a couple of these:

Pencil cases!

N. has already declared that the pink one is hers (of course), but I put the white and blue one up for sale on Etsy. I think if it was up to her, she's confiscate everything I make...

How's your end of summer?

Happiness in my mailbox

Oh girl! (never really understood why the expression only works with "boy")

Spring was delivered to my doorsteps yesterday.

Last week or so, the lovely lady of Bluebird Notes shared with her readers this uber romantic shop on etsy, Tamar. After drooling over its necklaces and bracelets, I couldn't resist and bought this:

Isn't it swoon worthy? It's perfect for light Spring dresses and I can't wait to premier it. 

But wait, check out the box it came in. 

I was *almost* as excited to get the cute box as I was to get that beautiful necklace. Almost. But then I get to wear the necklace, so it wins.

What have you received lately (in the mail or otherwise, material or otherwise) that put an extra skip on your hop?
