I am struggling with juggling.......

I have recently gone to work for a dentist office and still at work/play at the Scrapbook store from time to time so my computer and I don't see each other much anymore. I know... "cry me a river"....right? Many of you out there doing the same thing day after day. God Bless you all! I am struggling with juggling my job, family, excercise, keeping up housework, and my beloved crafts. I have been blessed with being able to stay home with my son but with him getting older I felt I needed to get back out to the working world. I miss posting too sooo many other blogs that I love and adore! Anyone checking in......I am still alive! Anyone with any great tips on managing time? I thought I would at least post a few around the house shots. Recently got the little tweety bird at a store on the coast and the little antique blocks came from a little antique shop. I hope to get outside soon to play in the dirt. Our weather here has been VERY fickle. Hope to post to many of you soon! xoxo, cherry

A Love Affair with ribbon.............

Sorry for not posting more often.....life gets in the way! I wanted to share a few "ribbon inspired" projects. My affair with ribbons dates back to my girl-hood. Remember the metal barrets that were all the rage that you gussied up with ribbons? You can never have enough ribbon really. It is such a versatile crafty acccessory! I use it for sewing, decorating, decoupage.... and now scrapbooking of course. The totes are a project done at my fave scrapbook store..."The Scrapbook Nook". Great way to use up all your little tidbits of ribbon. If that project doesn't shout girly.....I don't know what does. The metal atrium type container I decided to use unconventionally .....poked a dowel through my ribbons and placed them inside. Perfect home for them...just snip off what I need..whoilaaaaaaaa! You can have diamonds.......ribbons are a girl's bestfriend! xoxo, cherry
