Julianne Marie Jewelry

A while ago, my cousin Bianca and I started creating jewelry.
I would sell the pieces here & there or at work.
But it just kinda died out and I was finishing a semester at school.
Honest Opinon, what do you think of this jewelry?
I have a whole bunch more but there were the only ones I found on my computer :)


Black Deliah Earrings

The bracelet collection

Orange Sherbet Earrings (also in jet black & ice blue)

Love Me Rose Necklace & Ring Set

A few more ...



 
Let me know what you think or if you would even consider buying :)

And it isn't sprinkling or raining...ITS POURING.
Pouring since Friday, I seriously can't believe it hasn't stopped!
To top it off, it isn't expected to stop till Thursday!

Friday night, I had to finish Christmas shopping & I went to Citadel Outlets
(which of course are outdoors)
Got super wet & come to find out my boots had a small hole on the bottom!
Wahhhh!
Oh and I spent some of my Christmas money on ME :)
Mini Shopping Spree @ H & M.

Today, Christian's little brother from Texas comes to visit for the holidays!
 He is so excited hes been texting me like crazy counting down weeks, days now hours :)
He is like my little brother, love him like my own brother :)

Yesterday ...

I can't even tell you how much of a great day yesterday was.
Ok, I will ♥ haha

My morning started at 7:30, we had our annual staff Christmas Breakfast.
Your regular kind of breakfast was served : Eggs, Potatoes, Bacon, ham & french toast !
They had a little meeting blah blah & then they informed us that they will be giving us a VERY generous Christmas Bonus. Which they referred to an "Employee Appreciation".
I don't care what they call it! I was sooo happy!
So now I get to buy decent presents for everyone, even me :)  hehe

Next, some friends from work had just came back from New York the previous night.
And guess what they brought me back?


Hello Kitty Shot Glasses & an amazingly cute keychain!
I don't want to either out of their wrappings ♥
Everyone knows me too well :)

After school I met with my mom & bought Christmas stuff for my house
and gift bags, act.
I hadn't seen my mama in like a week so i missed her!

Next, It was my very last day of school for the semester,
My last class was Ceramics.
Now to be quite honest, I am a horrible artsy person.
I really struggled in this class BUT when I saw the finishing touches of my mugs,
my heart melted hehe



I know it's not great, but to me, I feel so proud I made them!
Yay me!

Anyways, I finished my last day of school with a pot luck & the final!
The final was a breeze so I am pretty sure I passed!

I got home, set up all the Christmas stuff,
watched Conan & Lopez Tonite.
OMG I love George Lopez!
I think he is soooo hillarious!
SO I went on my phone to check my email
and I had gotten an email from
Erica from Sweets & Hearts
and she wanted to inform me I had won her Lily B Skin Care Giveaway!

This is what I won:


YAY! That completed my Wednesday!
Today is my first offical day off of school!
So my boy is going to look for his dream car,
Mitsubishi Evolution.
& dinner afterwards to celebrate my ending of school & Xmas Bonus (appreciation)
whatever!

Have a Beautiful Day Everyone ♥


love,
kristin.

Planning a Bridal Shower Tea Party!


tea-party-table-country-living



Hey all!

In about four months my cousin will be getting married!
April 2 , 2010 to be exact!
Being in a wedding makes me think what if I get married...
who would I choose to me my girls?
What theme will I go for? How will I find a dress? All that jazzz!

but anyways, sorry side tracking...
I am happy to say she picked me to be her Maid Of Honor!
So far, I think I have been doing very good.
She thought up the wedding to be a
1940's Hollywood Glam Theme.
Everything she has planned already matches the theme perfect!
She is even having in an old mansion. very cute!

So of course me being maid of honor,
I need to be the H.B.I.C (head bitch in charged)
 for her bridal shower.
I thought, what better theme than a tea party!
I would like to go all the way but I have to compromise with ideas only
because people ARE picky! 
I got some great ideas but I am still very open for any suggestions.

Here is what I got so far:


Finger Sandwiches
Cucumber
Chicken Salad
Ham & Cheese
Cheese

Apps
Cheese
Crackers
Fruit
Veggies
Quiche


tea party wedding cupcakes




Sweets:
Cupcakes (of course)
brownies
Sugar cookies with frosting & sprinkles
macaroons
petit fours

Tea! & Drinks
Green Tea
Iced Passion Tea
Water with Lemon Slices
Strawberry Lemonade?

Decor:
Teapot/tea cup center pieces w/ daisys or gerber flowers.
lace table cloths
A Pretty Banner

Lastly, I was hoping I can encourge just brides maids to dress in tea party attire.
(dress, gloves, hat) and suprise the bride with all this plus a very special hat & gloves.

Does anyone have any tips or places where I can go to get these thing?
or maybe gifts for the games? I have the games in mind, very good ones.
Help a sista' out♥


love,
kristin.
