Baby gifts


In preparation for my trip to St Louis next weekend, I made the above blankets for a friend's baby girl.  The fabric is a nubby fleece on one side and a poly satin on the other.  These two fabrics are difficult to work with, one is stretchy and one is slippery but not stretchy.  I made several similar ones for my grandson and have finally mastered the pinning and stitching.  These went real quick, but I have had to rip many apart and start over. 



These two pictures are the ring toy I meant to complete by E's birthday as seen here.  It is Heather Baileys Happy Stacker  I was just too busy during the month of August so now E has a present coming this week.

One week count down to St Louis

Gosh the last two months have flown by and that is how long it has been since I saw my grandson.  This weekend I have dedicated my time to create for my favorite grandchild and a friend of his, Violet.  I will update hopefully by Sunday some completed projects.

For now all I have is a photo from two months ago of Eli studying my Blackberry

Arbonne Independent Consultant

Hi all,

I am launching my business with Arbonne International this month.  I have used their products for over two years and have honestly seen a dramatic difference in my skin.  I originally became a consultant to save money on Arbonne's premium products.  I wanted a skin care product to protect my over 50 aged skin.  I am amazed with how my skin now appears.  I believe I have minimal wrinkles for my age and finally I have no more breakouts.  My skin is smooth and so soft.

My previous skin care routine involved using an upscale department store's brand.  It was expensive.  I thought getting those free gifts (lipstick, mascara, eye shadows) offset the price.  How wrong I was.  I still visited an aesthetician every couple of months.  She told me I just needed a little extra special care.  I realized I was spending a fortune and not getting the results when I was buying department store so called premium products and still needing facials.   Last spring I had a my first facial since starting Arbonne RE9 Advance.  I knew my skin looked good but I wanted my aesthetician opinion.  She was so amazed with my skin and wanted to know what I was using.  My skin earned the praise of my aesthetician and that was my evidence and reward.

Now I want to help everyone look their best with these products and I want to help others to live their dreams.  Arbonne has many health and wellness products.  The are pure, safe and beneficial, meaning there are NO harming animal products or by-products, formaldehyde-donating preservatives, petroleum-based ingredients  (benzene, mineral oil, petroleum, phthalates, toluene) or PABA.  

It is a great company to work for and they have the best premium products.  I have been blessed.  Please view these links for more information.
