Last Friday Giveaway and the Tooth Fairy!

I want to start hosting a giveaway every Last Friday of the month....and going to start today!  I am hosting a giveaway on Sweet and Sassy Boutique's Facebook page for a pair of flower shoe clips....I know I say this all the time, but I so wish I had thought of these when my girls were smaller!!  I hope you stop by, like my page, and leave a comment to win.  The winner will be announced tonight at 9 EST.

I'm not sure how people feel about reading and commenting on blogs...I am going to use mine as a diary of my life as a wife, mother, business owner, and everything else in between.  I have met so many great people from commenting on their blogs, so please don't hesitate to comment if you'd like :o)  

My "baby" (who turned 5 in September, lol!) lost her first tooth this week.  She swallowed it with her lunch at school and was so excited for her first Tooth Fairy experience!  I know some people don't do Santa or the Tooth Fairy, but we do and my kids LOVE it.  

Dayna's letter to the Tooth Fairy!

I don't think they will be scarred for life when they find out it's make believe.  Anyway, she put her tooth in the her Tooth Fairy pillow and I painted up some dollar bills with glitter paint to leave her.  I have to admit, I was a little sad that my baby has passed into this next stage of her life.  I want to push the pause button as hard as I can and just enjoy these times for a little longer!!  I have enjoyed each stage, but so far the age my girls are now has been my favorite (I think I say that for each stage!).  I hope we always stay a close-knit family....I love them so much!!

Boutique Silk Flowers and Shoe Clips

When I started back to blogging, I had planned to post about 2 times a week...until my whole family got sick!  It has been one health issue after another, but I finally got caught up on orders and have some extra time to create again. 

My newest love is made from a pattern of rose I created myself that makes these amazingly full roses for hair accessories or whatever else you'd like to attach them to.  My pattern is really very easy, but makes something pretty dramatic.  I have been wearing these roses in my hair a LOT lately. 

One of the newest additions to my own Etsy shop is pairs of shoe clips...they are so stinkin' cute!!  I sized down the flower above and attached them to these fabulous clips.  I wish my girls were tiny again!

I am ready for Spring...how about you!
