it's finally over!

the crazy crowds & shitty drivers have hopefully gone with christmas as well.  i don't get why people have to act so crazy this time of year.  the store will still be there & most of the merchandise will still be there too!  it all went well & i think everyone got what they wanted.  :)

one of my fave gifts i gave this year was hopp's black apple doll that i saw at a craft show.  we just need to put a face on her.  she calls her baby coraline so i'm debating putting on buttons or drawing real eyes on it.  she keeps asking when she is getting a face, i actually think it's super cute without a face.

baby coraline, hopp's new doll


i got some gift cards & so we went shopping yesterday, we started at target & i got some wrapping paper & christmas melamine bowls which i'm calling them winter bowls but we will use all year round due to them being so cute!  :)

then we headed to the mall to exchange hopp's clothes to ones that fit.  while at the mall we got some other stuff like nail polishes.  i love nail polish!!!  i got the mini pack of the pirates of the carribbean collection of the opi brand & then at payless i got their brash line in midnight spark.
weird they put two very similar colors in the mini pack but i don't care i really like them

my midnight spark polish.  i have it on today & it doesn't sparkle like it does in the bottle but i absolutely love it!  it's gorgeous on!!!

well, before i got the polish at payless we looked at shoes because i have a gc for some shoes there, i need new shoes bad!  i had the littles with me & i saw something i knew q would like.  she has the shoe fetish of all the girls & if the heel is high she wants it & will try them on usually but this time i just held them up to show her.  this is the funniest shit! omg, i laugh every time i think about it.  this is how the conversation went....
me: "hey qeylee look at these" ::holding up the shoes::
q: "oh my god, i'm going to throw up!"
me: i pause, think about why, "why are you going to throw up?!?"
q: "because they are so beautiful!!!"

omg!  we have a shoe problem!!!  :o)  i love this kid!!!
the shoes that almost made q throw up, not for sure if they are the exact pair but they look just like these.  :)  i'm super shocked she didn't want to try them on!  :o)
i hope you all had a great christmas, holiday season! 

ONE LAST THING, I NEED SUGGESTIONS...  I'M MAKING A BABY BLANKET FOR A CO-WORKER & I'M NOT FOR SURE WHICH BLANKET TO MAKE.  IT'S FOR A BOY SO I'M NOT FOR SURE WHAT'S THE BEST DESIGN FOR A BOY.  I'M THINKING RIPPLE/CHEVRON, WHAT WOULD YOU GUYS THINK WOULD LOOK GOOD?

does coraline have a face yet? if not, i think you should definitely use buttons. that would be so cute.

i tried posting a comment the other day on my phone & it was acting crazy! it was pissing me off.

no baby c doesn't have a face yet. i'm slacking on the face. i'm afraid i'm going to mess it up. :(

i can't wait to sew good, i want to make a bunch of these & in bigger sizes. i was a little disappointed in how little she was. but i still think she is super adorable!
