Switcharoo

It's not complete but is getting there. I think all the Christmas is out and going quickly. In addition, we have gotten some beautiful new collections.

Love the rich colors in Basic Grey's new line "Lucille"

All the pattern pieces remind me of our kitchen table and mom sewing at night once we were in bed.

 

 

Crate Papers " On Trend " is a fun eclectic collection.

Love the vellum banners.

 

 

Crate Papers "Acorn Avenue" is perfect for fall pictures and projects.

 

 

 

Beautiful blues, golds and greys in My Mind's Eye's " Lost & Found 3"

No one else does a better glitter paper. This always flies out the door.

 

 

Webster's Pages " Royal Christmas" finally made it way to the front of the store.

More goodies coming out tomorrow. Hopefully that gusty wind will blow you into the store this weekend.

 

 



It's a Glitter Whirlwind

It's that time again. Store flip flop and bringing out the Christmas. I love it but boy does it made a glittery mess. At least all those many piles sparkle. The store is not completed yet but I promise it will be by the Casady Square Open House next Tuesday, Nov. 13 from 5:00- 8:00. here are some sneak peeks of what I have been up to this week...

Graphic 45 Nutcracker is perfect for that annual tradition and also if your daughter is in ballet- recitals will be here this spring and you will be wanting the pink paper with ballet slippers. Don't you love this glittery top hat? What a festive Christmas/ New Year's decoration and at a great price.   

A little retro Christmas with Basic Grey

This old toy truck is perfect for Tim Holtz bottle brush trees.

 

 

Gorgeous!

 

My favorite Christmas line so far.

Coming Home

It was homecoming in Waco this weekend. A very fun but exhausting weekend. Baylor has the oldest Homecoming celebration in the country; 103 years old. I also think it is an absolutely brilliant marketing scheme and explains why so many generations of families attending BU. 

There was the bonfire and pep rally

 

Pigskin

 

 

 

Katie's roommates getting ready .

 

Pigskin is a musical review put on by the sororities and fraternities. The top 8 acts from the spring perform the following Homecoming at Pigskin. Katie's sorority, Kappa, was the first place winner. It was a Phantom of the Opera type act. Half were masquerade dancers and the other half "jester" party crashers. The jesters all wore fun makeup and ratted their hair into these crazy styles. Katie wanted to be a jester but she has way too much hair- it would have blocked out too many people.

 

 

 

Sat.  Homecoming Parade



Hutton and Lexie in front of Katie's float- which won. It is a great year to be a Kappa

Katie & Hutton- two Baylor beauties! 

Austin and Lexi checking out the SAE float

 

Em, Katie and Payne

 

And after a weather delay, the Bears beat the Jay Hawks!  What college visit would not be complete without mom's lasagna and brownies, a trip to the grocery store and a couple of loads of wash!

 

 

It was a good weekend and it was topped off by Payne finding out he had been accepted to Baylor and all his hard work has paid off with a nice scholarship. It was a good weekend to be a Bear!

 

Thank you for indulging me. Fran and Cheryl will can verify what a special and fun weekend. Bears are coming to my home this weekend, not so sure it will be as fun. Sic Em Bears!  

 

Now it's off to getting ready for Christmas at the store.

Our youngest shopper Miss Delaney

 

Than you again to our devoted fans who got out early on this chilly morning to shop the most creative and unique artworks. You inspire us and we appreciate your support!

 

 

Thank you once again to all the talented vendors. You are each so unique and talented and I am blessed to call each of you friend. Bobbie, great job on the postcard; we have hit the big time, we now have a PR piece. Thank you Jackie and Tom for letting us use your tables and especially for loading and unloading them; they can get pretty heavy. Thanks Jackie for everything. The things you do for Glitter Market, Paper Crown and myself are too numerous to mention. I know I don't say it enough but I so appreciate YOU! Last but not least, thank you, thank you Cheri! You are still the best at the cash register and I know everything is in great hands when you are in charge. It was wonderful to have you back! ; )

 

 

Happy Halloween

Glimpses of Glitter

A picture is worth a thousand words...

Arlene's scrumptious glitter & goodness cakes

 

 

 

 

 

Collette's textile and watercolor pieces. The bird on the right is happily hanging in my stairwell which has become my own gallery to the "Glitter Girls."

 

 

These booties are AMAZING. Someday I will have a little Christmas tree covered in them.

 

The darling on the end is also in my "gallery."

 

 

 

My one regret!


More pictures coming later. Hopefully if you weren't able to make it last weekend, it will just strengthen your resolve to attend the Spring Glitter Market.
