I like vintage looks. I have a tacky gene that loves to mix prints. I have fun trying new things with my hair. I'm a bargain hunter and hardly ever buy an item full price. I love to sew, and feel pleased as punch when I wear something of my own design.

Oops #1. I have spots in my hair that did not color correctly. Yes, it was done professionally. We have made several attempts at a certain hair color...something weird has happened each time!
Oops #2. I let the Baby play with my Yellow Jade bangle and he dropped it on the ceramic tiled floor at church!
Oops #3. The goofy grin on that last photo was too funny to delete. Things like that keep me from becoming too vain. :o)

My boys wore "ties" for Valentines Day. I made 'em up for them out of Weenie Dog fabric! They looked so cute that I wanted them to wear them again Sunday morning. :o)
Wearing double belts was a last minute decision. I'm so glad I decided to try it, I enjoyed the look so much! Hubby's Jeep was the right color for outfit photos! I have a soft spot for that Jeep...it's what he drove while we were dating. :o)

My Pastor's Wife said that I took the Scripture, "Boldly approaching the Throne of Grace" seriously. :o) I decided I liked that comment, especially since she said she meant it in a good way.
This sweater was HUGE and the circle behind the Lady was filled in with a pearl colored shiny fabric...yuck! I attacked it with scissors and sewing machine and am pleased with the results. I was inspired to give this sweater a chance after seeing all the fantastic sequined things My Edit wears.
