TGIF!!!!

I'm poppin' in here speedy quick to share a little project:


This was something that was shared during the original Get Trendy Now workshop.  Our challenge was to use woodgrain.  I altered a bar of fancy smancy soap that I picked up at Whole Foods.   All the paper and stickers are by My Little Shoebox.  Did you notice the snazzy green stitching...so those of you that don't know...green is my FAV color!

Any big plans for the weekend?

I'm having my Garage Sale tomorrow.  Hoping to clear out a bunch of stuff and hope to be organized.  It's actually Wednesday evening as I type this up and at this point, I'm so not organized but I do much better under pressure {wink}.  After the garage sale I'm meeting up with a bunch of my friends and we're Glass Blowing!  I'm soooooooo excited!!!!!

Can't wait to see what you make with the glass blowing. Whole Foods should hire you for their packaging consultant.
