I started on the purse pictured a few days ago. I ordered some magnetic closures and have been not so patiently waiting on them. I NEED them… and I want them. Maybe today they will decide to show up in my mailbox. I have had a busy end to this week. My man has been out of town working and I have been swamped with things to be done. The shop has received two more sales which is amazing and I am very surprised & thankful! I wish I had set work hours so I could get some things done but as of right now it is just a few hours here and there that I have time to dedicate myself to my blog and store. It seems as if there are not enough hours in the day or week for that matter. I have so many ideas, hopes & dreams for pinklittlebow but I am taking one small step at a time.
I took the clutch handbag out of the shop yesterday because I discovered a small problem with the zipper. 😦 Sometimes the zipper acts stubborn and I don’t want to sell something that isn’t up to par. I used it yesterday for myself when we went out for the 4th and it was perfect. So much better than my HUGE purse that I normally carry around so it was a lose/win. I really need to stock the shop. I honestly have been dragging ass lately. I just received some more scents for scent sachets but I had to use most of them for an order for my Aunt. I still have a few left and I plan on having them in the shop before Monday.
How was your 4th of July? Ours was pretty exciting and fun. We went to a deer breeding facility and fed the sweet little baby fawns. Allison made a few friends. She just loved them and laughed when they ran away from her. There were two that really wanted to know more about her. I went and made friends with a few of the two year old bucks. They still had their velvet so they were extra friendly which was a good thing for my sake. They love to lick your arms which felt really funny but its just their way of being friendly.
When we returned home, I learned that my sweet Mini Schnauzer had gone missing. We searched for him but with no luck. My sister drove down to the highway and found him coward down in the road, likely having a few close calls. She rescued him and I’m sure if she hadn’t found him when she did, he wouldn’t be here. I was so so sad. My poor poor Kota.
Later on that evening we watched the kids go crazy lighting black cats and sparklers. Me and my nephew went on a little adventure as I showed him what I used to do with the black cats when I was his age. We found some cool things to put them in and blew things up. He along with the rest of the bunch had a “blast” so to speak. When the kids ran out of things to light and the sky got dark, we started with the big stuff. We lit up the night sky with bursts of color. But it all came abruptly to an end when a firework was lit and then fell over causing a scene pulled straight out of a WWII movie in the front yard. Big burning fire balls of color flew in every direction causing panic and fear. The show was over and it was time to head home. Me, Thomas and our bug headed home on old dirt roads and we talked while the bug snoozed. It was a crazy and scary day but we all made it home safe. I hope your 4th was wonderful.
