You can never have too many purses. Seriously!

The garage sale for the pugs was a rousing success. We made over 600 dollars for the pug rescue. I am thrilled. I made my goal. As you can see by the pics, it was huge! We have two puggies that need wheelchairs. Isn't that sad? :( I'm selling the big furniture that didn't sell in the garage sale on craigslist this week. Hope that I sell it all.












































I also have a vintage purse that I'm putting on Etsy that didn't sell. Its so cool. It has 6 covers to the purse that button on and are reversable and changeable. The wood handle has a little bit of wear, but its so neat! The wood handles kind of magnet together. Here's the listing if you are interested.



This weekend I managed to get a couple crafty things done. I made this digital layout for Sketchy Thursdays. I meant to post it sooner, but blogger and its hiccup made me wait.











And here's the sketch I came up with. Scrapbooksplease is having a sale on their premium 12x12 prints so I'm going to be ordering some today!
































I didn't get alot of sleep last night again, so I think I'm going to be laying low today. No gym. (though I should totally go) I think I'm just going to hang out at the house till speech class for Leo comes around this afternoon. Maybe I'll wake up enough to get some craftin' done or at least some planning. :) I really think I want to start having more products in my Etsy available. I have some vague ideas, but nothing really planned out yet. Gotta get thinkin!

Thanks for stopping by!
