Buongiorno Mondo!

I attended a Seminar this last Saturday."Launch your Creativity II". My second Seminar and looking forward to attend the April Seminar. It's so clear to me now what was before all scattered inside my brain! Do you know what I mean? It's like putting puzzle pieces in the right place. # 1 What do I want to do when I grow up? #2 Write my Goals, #3 Commit to it,
# 4 Organize your day, and in my case my computer desk!!! lol, # 5 Help others and I will add one more from my friend Beth # 6 "Sharing in Caring".
All these women in the picture below spoke to us. Each and every one of these Ladies has a particular gift and they were the W.H.O.A. (Women Helping One Another) of the afternoon. Sorry you could not make it, take time to read more by visiting their site and read what they taught us at L.Y.C.


Next stop Private Soldering Class tomorrow and getting ready for Glitterfest!
Ciao for now

I never had a table this small......loved it!
It turned out really cute.

My beautiful crown went home with a lovely lady, Gina.

Christie's table, SWEET!


My neighbor Dodi. Loved her company and the sunny umbrellas are unbelievable. I am the proud owner of a black and white one...but....I see a pink and black that has to come home with me real soon.

I just love her! She is going too.....

A special Day

I did AbsoLuTelY NoThIng On Sunday, RiGht?
as I mention on my past post.

I woke up Sunday and decided it was time to take a brake and also thinking of Saturday.
What happened Saturday?....I went to a special event with special friends!
As you can see from my memory board few new items have been added.
So where did I go?

Follow Your Dreams, Anything Is Possible"

Presented by
Pansy Cottage and Garden
the one and only
Sharon Hughes

at
"Paris In A Cup"

A very inviting Tea Room full of wonderful ladies and I believe I saw a gentlemen.

Speaker, Jenelle Van de Mortel from Van de Mortel Designs made this beautiful book on the left and talked about
"The Business Plan"

Lydia Reza put together a booklet on
"How to Find a Product Rep"

While listening to the speaker's stories, experiences, ideas, dreams......we had the most wonderful lunch! Check out Beth's blog, she took some great photos of the lunch.

Speaker and owner of "Paris in a Cup" Cheryl Turner told us about the Story of Launching a Tea Room. The lessons that she learned, some of her secrets, inspirations and dreams.
Speaker and owner of Heavenly Hostess Cynthia Wadell brought her most amazing aprons. Incredible work and she talked about how important packaging your product is.


It was really nice to meet in person Jacquaeline de Montravel, editor of Romantic Homes Magazine, she was also one of the speakers at Paris in a cup.

So now you understand why I had to take Sunday off. So much to think about....what do I want to do when I grow up? TOO MUCH! It is such a gift to be at this point of my life where so many friendships have been made and to feel so comfortable with all of them.
The gift of CREATING!

After the Tea, we walked to the Antique stores in Orange Circle. I got to see Sue at Country Roads! I found some special treasures......
