Another Weekend Over..

I can't put down the ipod! Blair put the new Stone Sour cd on it last night & its awesome! I'd say it might be better than their first cd. That's just my opinion..My favorite song by far is "Say You'll Haunt Me". Check out the song & the video? 
 

 I did add 2 tanks, i had added them to uniquecharm.net & sold a few but forgot to list them on etsy (i know right, duhh) This weekend has been so busy, when i think i'll have a few minutes to myself my phone rings.Friday night Jenny & I had a girls night in but her boyfriend Wes was there so we let him partake in the festivities.She cooked & i brought a movie. It was "The Backup Plan". Last night Blair had a UFC party, Jenny & I got there early to cook while Wes & Blair played video games. We all had fun, the fight was over really late & everyone was tired & sort of buzzed. I met Jenny at Shelly Lake for a nice stroll around the lake because it was 75* instead of the usually 98*! Our high for next week is 81*, I'm so excited, i'm ready for fall!

Take a peek at the new listings (Already clearanced because fall's coming {eventually})

What to do with Wednesday

I've got to step out & pick up some anti-virus for my laptop. I don't think it's a good idea to be cruising around the internet without it these days. Although i did run out like 2 months ago, i decided not to push it. I bought some fabric yesterday & i'm a little confused as to what i'm going to use it for. I thought about making makeup bags, & some more zipper pouches. Please be honest. Now that school started is there any need for zipper pouches? I love the diversity of them though, you can use them for pretty much anything..

I need some perspective...Can i have yours?

I'm getting back into the swing of handmade things. I was trying to find placess to advertise & showcase my items. I was wondering how everyone else gets there stuff out there? I know blogging is a GREAT way & it helps but other than that, how do you do it? I'd be so grateful if anyone could tell me their little secret. I know posting a different item everyday helps but sometimes i can't do so. I was just wondering. I'm in the process of taking new photo's & coming up with new items. I don't plain to post them all at once just trying to get a few different things rolling. I use my facebook page too but thats full of mostly local friends, how do you guys use this to your advantage as well?

New camera & Retaken photo's

I slept in this morning & it was awesome! I woke up at 930am & felt so refreshed. Today is so pretty i didn't want to sit in the house pouting because i have to work all weekend. I noticed in the Staples flier there was an awesome camera for sale, so i called & found 1 them went to pick it up. It's a 10.0 MegaPixel with 10x optical zoom! It's so awesome & clear! (the photo below of the bundle was taken with my old camera {a kodak})

I'm retaking the old photo's of the items i have listed at UniqueCharm.etsy. You can tell the difference just by looking, even on the LCD of the camera. This camera is so awesome & i love it! The photo below has been retaken with the Canon.

New Tanks added to Unique Charm!

I've had a productive day today. I've got a migrain so i wont be attending the Attracting the Fall show tonight. Instead i've spent all day designing & making 2 new tank tops & redid my webpage to get it up & running. I give you the new Unique Charm! I let it go awhile ago but decided to take it back on because not everyone wants an etsy account. This way i can take a few different payment methods (not everyone wants to use paypal) & no 1 has to sign up for an account they might not want. I'm about to go out for the night. I hope everyone's had a great Saturday! Check out the new threads, these are available at UniqueCharm.net

It's Almost Friday!

Today has been 1 of the longest day's it seems like! I got to work at 7:30am & didn't walk out the door until 5:30pm. Everyone went back to school today so you can imagine (some of you have even seen) the chaos. I'm so exhausted. I've stayed up late the past few nights & now it's really catching up to me, so needless to say i cant wait until Friday afternoon at 4pm! "Attracting the Fall" is playing in Fayetteville on Saturday & i've been invited to go, however.Fayetteville is like 2 hours from here! 

(More) New Projects are coming soon. I know i've said this a lot, but this time i mean it! It always seems like i never get a chance to finish anything because by the time i start i've already totally commited to something else (then the vicious cycle starts all over). You'll be seeing a lot of new things hanging around UniqueCharm.

Finally, It's Friday!

Please Read Before Linking Up
Thank you so much for coming today to link up to New Friend Friday. We've had such a GREAT response and we are truly blessed. However, there are a few reminders I want to put out there:
  • Family Friendly Sites only please. The past few weeks we've had to delete a site or 2 that was inappropriate. I hate to be the blog police but I really want to maintain the integrity of this blog and Tara and I are in agreement on this.
  • Please link to your home page (example: http://thegirlcreative.blogspot.com). Last week we had over 88 entries that were for parties, crafts, etc. I know this is a common mistake so no worries. :)
  • Remember to leave meaningful comments on the blog before and after you in the list. That's what this party is about. :) It's not about gaining the most followers or asking people to follow back. It's about visiting at least the blog before and after you (and as many as you want after that) and leaving comments and making friends.
Okay, this is hopefully the last time I have to spend time on this. I'd rather just PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

To join in on the fun, link up your blog via your own "Where's The Love Friday/Follow Friday" post, & try to visit at least 2 bloggers on the linky & show them where the love is! The linky will be open from Friday-Sunday every week!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This week I am breaking my own rules & featuring TWO bloggers! Both of these ladies were the FIRST to link up with Where's The Love Friday (even when I started it on a Sunday) & I really enjoy reading their blogs daily!

First up is Kendra Diaries!


Kendra is SUCH a sweet girl with not only one of the cutest little munchkins around, but her blog is by far one of my FAVORITES design wise!

Next up is Southern Reflections!


I have only been following Southern Reflections for a short while, but her blog is seriously one of the most uplifting, positive blogs I have read! I look forward to reading her posts!

Be sure to check out these blogs & follow these ladies - you would be crazy to miss out on what they have to offer! =)

Just a friendly reminder too before you all link up - please keep Where's The Love Friday to blog links only. This is not for giveaways or to promote anything other than your blog itself! I let it slide last week, but if a giveaway is linked up from now on, I will be removing it. Not to be a bitch or anything lol, but there are PLENTY of giveaway linkys out there & that's not my goal with Where's The Love Friday! My goal is simply to share the bloggy love via comments - so if you like that idea, link up your BLOG! =)


Happy Friday Everyone! ♥
