Queen for a Day


Really I think I'ld rather be a princess. Their are far less responsibilities and queen just sounds old. I think everyone these days has a facination with royalty and most women kinda fantasize about being a little like Marie Anntoinette, except for the be-heading part. Aside from all of her lavish things, it sounds to me like she lived a rather tragic life. The Lucidcafe' has a good refresher on Marie Antoinette's life. http://www.lucidcafe.com/library/95nov/antoinette.html
Well I finished the swarovski crystal crown and got it listed on Etsy. http://www.studiopink.etsy.com/
I couldn't get very good pics though, no model. the little cherub above is sweet but not quite right for a model. Oh well, another day.

Thanks Cookie Sunshine




I am so excited my blog and Etsy store were featured on "The Cookie Sheet" blog site today. To check it out go to http://cookiesunshine.typepad.com/the_cookie_sheet/ She is such a great lady and features different blogs quite often. What a fun place to learn about other people and what they are up to. She also has a weekly treasure hunt. The picture of Baby Girl is so big and beautiful on her site.
The new journal is done. I love it! I also played around with a new tiara tonight. No starfish and no tulle just swarovski crystals. I still have a couple of adjustments to make I will get pics up tomorrow.
Isn't tomorrow the first day of spring? Yeehaa! I know not so fast this is michigan.
Has anyone ever tried Gyrotonics? Check it out at http://www.gyrotonic.com/Default.asp
I saw it on the Rachel Ray show a while back and I would love to try it. It looks awesome kinda like sincronized swimming. If anyone has tried it please comment and let me know what you think.

Have a great snug night on this last night of winter for this year anyway.

Goodnight ;)

Mermaid Dreams

March keeps marching on and it is almost time for the beach. My flip flops are ready and waiting. I can't wait to feel the sun on my body and the warm breeze across my face. I love the sounds of the tide lapping at my feet. My most favorite part of the whole trip other than the warm sun is the sea treasures I find while walking the beach. I think I will journal about my trip and reflect on the past few wonderful months of my life. I am working on a new journal pictured above. It is a special order for a special customer. I need to put one together for myself. "Mermaid Dreams" sounds like a good title. I just hope that I can let go and relax. I'm a worrier and will be thinking about the kids, the dogs and babygirl left behind.


This starfish tiara was a special order for a girl lucky enough to be getting married on the beach in June. I hope she loves the crown. I am sure she will look beautiful in it. Kellibeth, I hope you have an unforgettable day and beautiful weather.


Well, it is time to go back to laundry and dishes and my mermaid day dreams. Don't forget to visit me at http://www.studiopink.etsy.com/

Studio Pink is Open


It is official Studio Pink is open for business.! It has been a week now. A very long week of late nights but "We are here, we are here" as the Who's in Whoville would say. I have made 3 sales and a couple special orders. Fun fun, but no profit yet. It has only been a week but I am impatient you know. I love my latest creation. It is a starfish tiara for a beach wedding.

The beach sounds wonderful about now doesn't it? I will be there soon. Less than 3 weeks.

Whew hew!

It has been sooo fun taking pictures for all of the merchandise and baby girl has been quite the little model.

Surprize in the Mail

My OWOH package came today, how exciting. Thank you Monique.
I just love the little fairy princess card she is so cute! I saw her on one of your posts and hoped I would get something like her. The package of goodies were great too. There is a piece of trim in there that I can use for my next project. Finding treasures in the mail is a great way to start the weekend.


She is just perfect for me. I will display her on my inspiration board.

It's Your Birthday


When little baby girl was born I made her a special birthday cake box. This box is to use as a center piece every birthday and it can hold birthday cards and momentos from year to year. I loved it so much that I made one to go in my Etsy shop. Happy Birthday to the birthday girls out there.

Chicks on Parade











It is getting close to that time. What time?, "you ask". Spring weather, birds singing, flowers blooming, Easter egg hunts, and baby chicks hatching. In honor of that beautiful time of year I have some fabulous little chickies to parade in front of you. Smile and think warm thoughts.
