2010-10-04T17:38:00.004-05:00

I've been slacking on updating my blog but I was super busy. Now that the work program has ended I will now have some extra time to do crafting.

Lately I've been working on football and Halloween accessories. I just upgraded my Artfire Studio to "Pro" so I have been updating and promoting it.

It finally feels like fall, cold mornings but warm afternoons. Gotta love it though!

*** Posting a picture of one of my favorite Halloween accessories***

Whats Happening....

2010-09-17T18:42:00.004-05:00

Lately I have been very busy with work and helping my daughter with her school work. I haven't been able to do a lot of crafting but I have managed to do a few New Orleans Saints and LSU accessory. I am really behind in crafting but starting next month this will pick up. Above is a picture of my new favorite Saints accessory that I've made recently. Its a one inch round pendant that comes with a 24" ball chain. GEAUX Saints!

Whats up?!?!

2010-08-13T11:52:00.006-05:00

I know you all are probably wondering what I have been up to lately. Well, lately I've been making school accessories and getting my daughter ready for school.

School started on August 9th so I had to put together some accessories for the local kids. I had made some cute pony o's, locker magnets, bottlecap necklaces, and bottlecap bracelets. The pony o's was a big hit!

Today was my daughter first day at the BIG school. Its her first day of kindergarten and its going to be her first day riding the Big bus. I'm scared for her and how she will react. So I'm lonely and missing her because she is usually around me 24/7. Well I can't wait until September gets here so I can return to work and spoil someone else child.

LashBlast Fusion

2010-08-04T16:51:00.004-05:00

I just had to brag about this great mascara! I'm a Bzzagent and I was given the chance to try the CoverGirl LashBlast Fusion Mascara. I'm so glad I took that chance! If you never heard of CoverGirl LashBlast Fusion Mascara, its Covergirl's new mascara that give a blast of volume and incredible length for dramatic lashes with full length volume. Its hypo-allergenic, suitable for contact lens wearers, smudgeproof, flakeproof, and rubproof.

If you have every seen me without any make up you would know that my eyelashes are invisible, short and can not be seen. Well, after using the LashBlast Fusion that all changed. I had eyelashes, they were now visible and full and looked great. I was really amazed that it had worked.

Before using CoverGirl LashBlast Fusion mascara I was using any cheap mascara I could find, and it did nothing to my lashes. So now LashBlast Fusion has replaced my old mascara, I'm never going back to my old mascara.

If you would like to try it, I have 2 coupons left for $2 OFF that I would be glad to mail to you. Its available at drugstores, grocery stores, mass retailers and online. I've seen them at my local Walmart. It comes in shade of very black, black, blackbrown, and brown. Just look for the BOLD PURPLE TUBE.

CoverGirl LashBlast Fusion mascara gets my stamp of approval!

WHO DAT!!

2010-01-25T19:45:00.004-06:00

I would like to congratulate the New Orleans Saints on there victory win last night. This will be the New Orleans first time at the Superbowl in 43 years. After what the city of New Orleans has been through, they really deserve this happiness. The score was Saints 31 Vikings 28 in overtime. It was a real close game. My nerves was so bad and my blood pressure went up.

Just about everyone here in Louisiana is so happy and walking around with a smile and a New Orleans Saints shirt on. All the neighbors were screaming and shouting for joy last night. Some even popped fireworks. Thats just how excited we are here.

To celebrate the Saints win to the Superbowl I will be offering FREE SHIPPING (only in the US) on all items in my Etsy shop. ENJOY!

It has been soooo cold here in Louisiana lately. School is canceled tomorrow due to the cold weather. I'm not a fan of cold weather, thats why I'm still living in the South.

So whats been going on in my crafting world? Well, over the last couple of weeks I've been working on a few custom orders and I made more key fobs.

Happy Labor Day

2009-09-07T17:31:00.002-05:00

My Labor Day weekend was pretty good. Besides having problems with my sinus, I had a great time with my family this weekend. My family from Texas, Florida, and Mississippi came to visit us this weekend. We even threw one of my aunt a surprise birthday party. So how was your labor day weekend?

Bow Snap Clips

2009-08-12T18:12:00.003-05:00

Okay, so I took a break from making key fobs. Lately I've been working on some school bows. I'm sorry that I don't have pictures, the customers needed them right away. Besides making school bows, I made some cute bow snap clips. I love adding things to snap clips, especially colored snap clips.

The bows are made from ribbon and measures a little over 1" across. The snap clips measures 1 1/2" in length. The colors are beautiful. Check out the listing: Bow snap clips

More Key Fobs

2009-08-03T19:10:00.003-05:00

Yep, I love making key fobs! Here are some recent key fobs that I've made. I had listed the Breast Cancer key fob on etsy, but it just recently sold. I will be listing more fobs soon. All proceeds for the "Jesus Loves Me" key fob will be donated to the church I attended (First Evening Star Baptist Church) building fund. Since the congregation is growing, and we are now in a small church, the church bought some land and decided to build a bigger church. Stop by my etsy shop www.jesscreations.etsy.com to check them out.

My New Passion

2009-07-20T17:12:00.003-05:00

I have a new passion or craft I shall say, key fobs. Key Fobs are fun to make! I've been had the supplies stored in my craft storage box. All I needed to do was setup my sewing machine.

I had received a sewing machine for Christmas and it was still sitting in the box in the corner. So a few weeks ago I finally took it out the box and rearranged my room so I could set it up.

I'm a beginner when it comes to sewing. I have a basic Singer machine. I thought it would be hard to thread, but it was easy. What a relief that was. The Key Fobs were my first sewing project. I've sold a couple of them to local customers. I just might list some in my Etsy shop.

RIP Michael Jackson 1958 - 2009

2009-06-26T18:26:00.004-05:00

I was hoping that the shocking, unexpected news of Michael Jackson passing was all but a dream or a rumor. But when I when I woke up this morning and saw the current news I realized that it was not a dream. The King of Pop is indeed dead at the age of 50. This is just so hard for me to believe.

Even though Micheal Jackson is a lot older than me, I grew up listening to his music. He made great music and was a great dancer/entertainer. Today I watched the videos of all of MJ songs. These videos were like mini films. I just love watching Michael perform.

This week has been a sad week for Hollywood. First they loss Ed Mahaon, then Farrah Fawacett, and Michael Jackson. Ed was a great sidekick to Johnny, but I guess God decided that he needed another sidekick so he chose Ed. Farrah fought the fight. But God needed another Angel and chose one of Charlies Angel. My heart and prayers goes out to all of the beaver families. RIP Ed, Farrah, and Michael.

My First Fabric Covered Bracelet

2009-06-24T17:58:00.003-05:00

Two weeks ago was my first time ever making a fabric covered bracelet. I must admit, they are fun to make. I'm sure I will be making more soon when I find more cute fabric. They are easy to make, but I just had a hard time getting the hooks off with the pliers.

The bracelet is listed in my etsy shop. The fabric on the buttons is dark blue with shooting stars. The buttons measure 1/2" and the bracelet measure 6 1/2 inches. Great accessory to wear with any 4th of July outfit.

I was so glad to see that I have a follower. Thanks for following me and I will be following you. I'm still new to blogging, still trying to get the hang of things around here.

Uncle Sam

2009-06-23T17:04:00.005-05:00

Uncle Sam has finally made it to my Etsy shop. I made the clippie about a week ago and I just decided to list it today. Uncle Sam measures about 2 1/2 inches in height and he is placed on a partially lined alligator clip. Uncle Sam is here just in time for the 4th of July.

Free Shipping On Patriotic Items

2009-06-22T20:33:00.003-05:00

Today I listed a Patriotic Tuxedo Bow in my etsy shop. Its a really cute bow! It measures 6 inches across and its adorned with a red bottlecap that says, "God Bless America". It will match any 4th of July outfit. I also have FREE SHIPPING in the USA on all Patriotic items.

**More Patriotic items coming soon**

The Weekend

2009-06-15T18:38:00.006-05:00

I had a great weekend. On Friday, my niece had a birthday party/slumber party at the local hotel at the casino. Family and friends attended the party and about five of her friends spent the night for the slumber party. The party was in a suite and my sister had an extra room on a different floor so her two sons could stay. So me and my daughter slept in the room with my nephews. The bed was soooo comfy, I didn't want to wake the next morning.

After getting up Saturday morning me, Lisa, and my baby sister went to Lafayette to go spend this JCPenney gift card I had won. I really enjoyed shopping for myself, that hadn't happened in a long time. Afterwards we ate at IHOP.

On Sunday after attending church we was all sitting outside in the back yard enjoying the sunny hot weather. While sitting outside I got bored and started making some woven headbands. I made a Minnie Mouse Woven Headband and a Cherry Headband. I will be posting them soon in my etsy shop: http://www.jesscreations.etsy.com

New To Blogging

2009-06-09T17:31:00.002-05:00
