Happy BD to Us……

 

My BD/Thanksgiving morning began with a lot of hugs and kisses from my little guys and hubby.  The perfect gift and best reason to be thankful this year!!  

   

Our BFF had our families over for Thanksgiving dinner, and she had this beautiful display waiting for us when sis and I arrived.  I loved her pink and brown Paris wrapping paper. She is the queen of gift giving !!!  You can’t really see it, but there are mercury glass birds tied on top.  So beautiful!!!

 

 

 

 

I got this beautiful vintage snowman from my BFF.  I love him!!!  He looks like such a doll on my mantle perched in front of my glass glittered trees. 

  

I got Sis this cute shirt along with the “Twilight” DVD.   She wears it with pride!!!  We loved…..loved….loved…. New Moon.  We are planning to see it again with another friend next week.

 

As for Glitter & Bliss, we met our goal of having all existing orders out before black Friday. Now, we are focusing on new items for the upcoming January Dallas market and updating our little catalog.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends.  Like me, I know you are all enjoying decking the halls of your homes.  I plan to put the final touches on my decor. this weekend. Don’t you just love this time of year!!!

Cute Frame and Linen Roses

  I found this darling paper, and I instantly fell in love.  It is called “Hooray” by Daisy D. I love the flags and bright colors.  I had hopes of including this design in our January Dallas Market show, but unfortunately, it is discontinued.  I do plan to use it while supplies last.  It’s too cute and perfect for a birthday frame. 

My sister has been busy making these roses lately.  She simply searched for a tutorial on you tube, and soon was well on her way.  We are planning to add a linen accent pillow to our line with a few of these little guys on it.  CUTE!!  Sis is having a blast getting these ready.   She made one for each of my dining lamp shades.  :)

 

I know I have been such a stranger lately.  We have been working day and night trying to get orders out just in time for the holiday shopping season.  We have been busy filling current orders and, at the same time, trying to build up stock for our upcoming January market.  This = a lot of late nights.  We are also working with our team to develop new items for the January show. Sis and I have been so blessed lately to find a wonderful local screen printer that has worked so hard to get our designs “just right”.  Also, our seamstress and her daughter have truly been a God send.  They have certainly helped us take this little business venture to the next level.  Big hugs to all!!!

I know, if you are like me, you are so excited about the holidays.  I have been listening to Christmas music since before Halloween.  I just love this time of year!!  I found these darling houses at TJ MAXX last week.  This is my new inspiration for my mantle this year.  They light up, but not until I make a few repairs.  They need some TLC, but nothing a glue gun and a little glitter can’t take care of.  They were a bargain….

 

Happy Monday to All!!!
