Tuesday Tidbits.

August has been quite a whirl-wind for me.  How about you, how's August treating you?  I've been somewhat perplexed about what to blog about...  Yes, really I seriously have.  Sometimes, I...have so much to share and I'm not quite sure "where" to begin.  I'm mean let's be honest, I still have yet to blog about my 12-day vacation to Europe last year.  Oh, I've shared a lot of pictures but, not the bits and pieces that made the trip fantabulous.  Oh, how I wish I was back there now.  Anywho, I've clearly been busy.  So, let's get on with the "tidbits" about ...this & that...

I'm in love with Society Social.  I want the The Double bar cart.  It would make a fabulous bar cart but, also it would "double" as a fabulous sparkly end table.  And I have just the place for it.  Oh, and the silver would be the right amount of sparkly for my living room.  Every girl needs a bit of sparkly in their life.  And this is a daily must!  Let me just say that The Dinner Party table is a must-have for any hostess that lives in a teeny, tiny small space - that's me!  All 458 square feet worth.  Let me just tell you that this table folds down to be 7 inches wide.  YES!  So awesome.  The problem is currently I have no room for this table.  Well, I sort of do.  You see I'm in need of a desk and this could double.  But, the next question is "which" color.  Ahh, decisions, decisions.  First up on my "must-have" list is going to be bar cart.  I'm so looking forward to the sparkle!

Ooohhh, I have some exciting news!  Last Thursday I was accepted to be a part of the Believe Boutique.  The Cornerstone Church in Chandler, Arizona has a holiday boutique every November and Blondie's Shop will be a part of it this  year!  YAY!  I'm so very excited.  And that also means that I need to put shop production into an all-time high gear.  I've been making baby shower invitations for a girlfriend.  The theme is pink and chocolate polka dot.  They are sooo cute!  I'm also going to offer the same cards in blue and chocolate polka dot, I need to make sure the boys are represented as well.  A special shout out to my girlfriend, Staci, for inviting me to the Believe Boutique last year.  Staci showcases her business, Bella Dreams, as well.  One of these days Staci will have a blog and/or website so that all of you can see her fabulous sparkly jewelry and clothing.  Anyhow, the Believe Boutique is a wonderful boutique so, if you live in Arizona make it a point to stop by.  You can seriously get a bunch of holiday shopping out of the way and buy yourself a few gifts too!  Thanks Staci.  I also made some cards for Natasha over at Schue Love - they match her blog.  You see I follow her blog and I was a bit inspired.  So, be on the look for more blog inspired cards.  More are in the works...  You never know who I might surprise next.

Have all of you read Society Social's magalog yet?  If not, your sooo missing out.  It's a must read for anyone who wants to live sparkly and for the hostess in all of us.  It's the Manifesto Magalog to be exact.  Check it out.  I love it!  Roxy (Society Social's founder) has put together a fabulous group of contributor's.

Earlier today I "popped" on twitter and asked for some inspiration...boy, did I get it.  Moments after I "tweeted" several tweets in my feed stated "...#earthquake"..."  I was like what?  First, Colorado and then the East coast.  Let me just say I was a bit concerned because I have friends and family in both locations.  Well, all is A.O.K. with everyone.  Anyhow, one thing I will say is that when an earthquake is happening or has happened "STAY INSIDE"!  I can't believe a lot of people ran outside - very bad idea.  Alright, enough of my two-sense.  Twitter is such an informative little media outlet.  And oh how I love thee.  I love you twitter!

Enough tidbits for today.  I hope each of you has a wonderful day and I'll see you tomorrow.
