</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TNitEud4JuI/AAAAAAAAEAU/XI-EfRLz1Is/s1600/down_for_maintenance.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TNitEud4JuI/AAAAAAAAEAU/XI-EfRLz1Is/s1600/down_for_maintenance.gif" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">While I am working on this, I plan on taking a little breather from the bulk of my custom orders. I will only be adding a small amount of custom orders for the time being as well as ready to ship items.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I will also be cleaning out my work room and clearing out tons of fabric, patterns and other "stuff." I am hoping this little breather and good housecleaning will get some fresh inspiration going for some new products. My plan is to bring things back to basics and offer more ready to ship items. Stay tuned......<br />

It was Baylee's first concert and it was really fun to watch her and her BFF enjoy it! I will not go so far as to say that I am a fan of Justin Bieber's music, but I will say that he can make a bunch of girls scream and do crazy things.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">We did a full day of shopping with the girls to get ready for the concert and spent the night in a hotel. Nothing like a hotel bathroom to make you want new <a href="http://www.bathroomfurnituredirect.com/">bathroom furniture</a>.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I took lots of pictures and I will share those later this week. Here is one of all of us standing in line for a JB shirt before the concert began. Can you believe concert shirts started at $35? </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Baylee (my 11 year old) and I are joining her BFF and her mom for a weekend of shopping, girls' day out and wait for it..............a JUSTIN BIEBER concert! Heaven help me! It has been Bieber Fever around here ALL WEEK as the concert gets closer!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.deadline.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/justin-bieber-my-world-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="235" src="http://www.deadline.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/justin-bieber-my-world-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This will be Baylee's first ever concert and she is sooooo excited. Really......I am too! Not necessarily because I like Justin Bieber, but because it is just going to be fun to have a girls' weekend with good friends and the girls are really and truly pumped up.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I will share all the details next week!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

This company has a little bit of everything. Lately I have really had the bug to buy new furniture. However, it really just isn't in the budget right now with the holidays coming up. So while I was surfing the CSN Stores website, I came across <a href="http://www.csnstores.com/filters/Recliner-l797-A6088~17421-A6088~17420-A6088~17424.html">these</a>. A lightbulb just EXPLODED in my head! A slipcover would be THE perfect solution. I could get a whole new look without breaking the bank. Once I decided that was what I was going to do, I scoured their pages looking for the perfect one. This is <a href="http://www.csnstores.com/Sure-Fit-047293369322-SUR1853.html">the one</a> I decided on:</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://common2.csnimages.com/lf/1/hash/1027/2003637/1/Sutton+Sofa+Slipcover+in+Taupe+(Box+Cushion).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" px="true" src="http://common2.csnimages.com/lf/1/hash/1027/2003637/1/Sutton+Sofa+Slipcover+in+Taupe+(Box+Cushion).jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I loved it! It had great texture, would brighten the room and fit my style. I was so stinkin' excited to get it in the mail and put in on these 13+ year old couches (yep, I ended up getting the sofa and loveseat slipcovers):</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TNIDO55RAHI/AAAAAAAAEAI/rbvZ7PZdGJo/s1600/livingroom.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="253" px="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TNIDO55RAHI/AAAAAAAAEAI/rbvZ7PZdGJo/s400/livingroom.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I wanted something a little more neutral and simple. Mostly wanted something that would fit our family and comfy pretty much sums us up. This is what it looked like after I put it on:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TNID2I0pgOI/AAAAAAAAEAM/My31uQMR57c/s1600/slipcover.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="296" px="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TNID2I0pgOI/AAAAAAAAEAM/My31uQMR57c/s400/slipcover.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Let me tell you people.....it was the EASIEST slipcover I have ever put on. I tried one YEARS ago and did not enjoy the experience at all! I think slipcovers have come a really long way since the last time I tried them. This particular one fit my couch and loveseat extremely well.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">But I needed a little color. I tend to lean towards jewel tones and warm colors for accents so I picked up a few pillows from Target to warm it up.</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TNID39EkQOI/AAAAAAAAEAQ/MPc_EU4fIzg/s1600/slipcover2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="308" px="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TNID39EkQOI/AAAAAAAAEAQ/MPc_EU4fIzg/s400/slipcover2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">What do you think?? I think I did pretty good.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I highly recommend you check out CSN Stores. They have products to fit every room and style. And the prices cannot be beat. Shipping is generally free and shipping turnaround is really quick. Not to mention their great customer service.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Hmmmmm, what do I want to do next?? Stay tuned!! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I am happy to say that the switch has been made to my new host/website software. It was a little challenging at times but it all worked out. A HUGE thank you to Callie of <a href="http://easyboutiquebuilder.com/">Easy Boutique Builder</a> and Robin of <a href="http://www.boutiquemama.com/">Boutique Mama</a> for all of their help and responses to my cry for help when I needed it! Amy of <a href="http://www.simplycreative.com/">Simply Creative</a> has also been a godsend in helping in the transferring process. So if anyone is looking to open your own website, these ladies get TWO thumbs up from me!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Even with that done, there is still a lot of work to be done. I am in the process of moving products from my old site to my new one. Looking at them, you wouldn't even be able to tell the difference. Callie really did a great job of re-creating my original site Amy designed and incorporating it into my new site. And since you can't really tell the difference......here are the deets:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Old Site Address: <a href="http://www.priddycreations.com/boutique">http://www.priddycreations.com/boutique</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">You will find most of my product still there.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">New Site Address: <a href="http://www.priddycreations.com/">http://www.priddycreations.com</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I am slowly moving product to this site. Both sites will stay open until I get it all switched over. Clear as mud? :) I promise I am hurrying! I want to make things as easy as possible. But it will take me some time to get it all done so please hang in there! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">New items will not be re-stocked on my old site once they sell. All new listings will go on my new site.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Any questions? <a href="mailto:amy.priddy@att.net">Email me</a>.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Now.....how was everyone's Halloween weekend? We had a good one. Celebrated my oldest's birthday and stocked up on LOTS of candy. Promise to share lots of those pics very soon!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Just a quick note to let you know that my website is down. I am in the process of switching hosting and changing to a new shopping cart. So that means you will not be able to place any orders until that is all up and going. So when you visit <a href="http://www.priddycreations.com/">www.priddycreations.com</a>, this is what you will see for now:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TL5KGyck9kI/AAAAAAAAEAE/hSknneQq1eA/s1600/priddycreationswebsnapshot.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="211" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TL5KGyck9kI/AAAAAAAAEAE/hSknneQq1eA/s400/priddycreationswebsnapshot.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am working on getting it all up and going but things will be "out of order" for now. My blog will look a little wonky too as things get moved over. I will eventually be switching to a Word Press blog (comes with my new website) so your patience is greatly appreciated! If you have any questions, you can email me directly at <a href="mailto:amy.priddy@att.net">amy.priddy@att.net</a> or leave me a comment here.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I am working on getting that corrected as soon as possible.

TGIF everyone! So happy for the weekend. It will be jam packed but oh so fun. Soccer and softball. Baylee is in a local tournament that will probably be one of the best tournaments for the Fall. We are really looking forward to it. Mollee and Ethan will be soccer kickin' fools. And all of this goodness starts bright and early at 7:15 a.m. tomorrow morning! WOOO HOO......NOT! Don't get me wrong.....super pumped about the games. Just not quite so pumped about when it is all supposed to start.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I also thought I would share two things on my "WANT" list:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Have you missed me? I have been getting myself adjusted to my new job. The work itself is easy but getting used to being away from home for 9 straight hours is taking some getting used to. Not to mention turning in my t-shirts, athletic shorts and tennis shoes for heels and dress clothes. I really am a casual kind of girl.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I am also trying to figure out how to squeeze everything into my newly crazy days. Could there just be a few more hours in the day to get it all done please?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Home decorating has been on my mind lately and I have lots of ideas. I started browsing one of the CSNstores and came across a great <a href="http://www.bedroomfurniture.com/Bookcase-Headboards-C4007.html">bookcase headboard</a> that really makes me want to do a little bedroom re-do for the girls. How great are these?? A product review in the near future? You will have to wait to find out!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Lastly.....today I am celebrating my birthday and am blessed to have such great family and friends in my life to celebrate with. They are keeping me sane as I get adjusted. I am hoping to be blogging more regularly soon. I miss it. Just need a few more hours in the day.....</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!</div><br />
<img border="0" src="http://www.priddycreations.com/blogsiggySM2.gif" />Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8072788556396130940.post-35457332128473220992010-09-13T19:15:00.000-05:002010-09-13T19:15:17.404-05:00Big, BIG NEWS!!<div style="text-align: center;"> This is something that has been in the works for a little while. Took some time to find just the right spot for me. And today it is official. I am heading back to work full-time in the legal field. I always knew it would happen once the kids got older. And now that Ethan is in 1st grade, it is time! I am excited and nervous! It has been 5 years since I quit my last legal job to stay at home with the kids, work from home with Troy and pursue Priddy Creations on a more full-time basis. Although with 3 kids, working with my husband and all the other mom duties, it never really did take on the full-time gig I had hoped. But regardless, I am BLESSED and THANKFUL that I was able to do it at all!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">What does that mean for Priddy Creations? Well.....there will be some changes......effective pretty much immediately. I will STILL be sewing. Priddy Creations will still be a huge part of my life. But some things will have to change. First thing.....I will not be taking on any custom work over the next few weeks on my bigger items. I need a few weeks to get myself settled in the new job and incorporate all the "mom" stuff along with going back to work full-time. And I am hoping to do this as stress-free as possible. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">So, what will you see? More ready to ship stuff especially with regard to my camera bags. That is probably the most drastic thing that will change right now. Once things settle down, I will add them back to my inventory as I can squeeze them in. As for the rest of my products....those won't change. My turnaround time might increase though. Probably from a few days to possibly a week for certain items. The reason being is that most of my sewing will be on the weekends with very little done during the week. Unfortunately, I can only do so much without something, somewhere, suffering.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Another thing that will change.....my response to emails will be done at night and on the weekends. Not really a huge deal but just giving you a heads' up.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">So here is my request from you.....if there is something that you would love to see as a ready to ship item, please let me know!!! Since I will not be taking customs, this could be a good chance to work in what you want. :) You can email those requests to me at amy.priddy@att.net.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I have mixed feelings about returning to work but am excited at this new adventure! Wish me luck!! And if you have any questions, please feel free to send me an email!</div><br />

I know that I am. I just change them out to fit my mood or needs (funky with bright colors, one that has a clip, etc...).<br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TIVoOcvYx7I/AAAAAAAAD_U/YvsBZeh6SBY/s1600/cellphonecases.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="233" ox="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TIVoOcvYx7I/AAAAAAAAD_U/YvsBZeh6SBY/s400/cellphonecases.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TIVoNfeQ3pI/AAAAAAAAD_M/8daXkJ0Ud6E/s1600/cellphonecases2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="370" ox="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TIVoNfeQ3pI/AAAAAAAAD_M/8daXkJ0Ud6E/s400/cellphonecases2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I currently have 8 (yep, 8) that I have purchased over the past 2 years. I can't help myself.....I just love changing things up. But I will admit, that gets pricey if you are paying full retail price for them (I personally like <a href="http://overstock.com/">overstock.com</a> and <a href="http://ebay.com/">ebay.com</a> for cheaper ones). The Paul Frank monkey one is what is on my phone right now. $5.00 on eBay. That is probably the best deal I have found on one I have liked. They generally retail for $20+.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Well, if you are obsessed like me, I have the DIY tutorial for you. I came across this tutorial via Twitter and thought that this lady was brilliant! Why the heck did I not think of this already? It seriously would have saved me a good chunk of money.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">What are they? Cell phone case inserts. How genius (and EASY!) is this??? All you need is a clear cell phone cover and some scrapbook paper or fabric!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">You can find <a href="http://www.oopsicraftmypants.net/2010/08/case-inserts.html">her tutorial here</a>.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I craft my pants</a>}</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I plan on making at least 12 to start. :D I already have TONS of scrapbooking paper (and FABRIC) to choose from!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Anyone else going to admit that this tute made you do a little jig because you have a cell phone case/cover addiction??? Fess up peeps! I can't be the only one!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TH72_pqKdNI/AAAAAAAAD98/oH_ZUyHh-ek/s1600/turtle4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" ox="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TH72_pqKdNI/AAAAAAAAD98/oH_ZUyHh-ek/s400/turtle4.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Somehow this little turtle got in our backyard and was driving the dogs BONKERS! Sorry for the blurriness. Troy said Daisy was just coming off of a poke with her nose and dodge. LOL! Troy rescued the turtle and moved it safely out of the backyard. But not before the turtle clamped down on Daisy's nose one time. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">When the kids got home, they put the turtle in our front yard ditch.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Not long after the rescue, I hear this scratching noise at my front door. We have two kittens that sometimes scratch at the front door. So I open it up to get them a little rub down only to find that our turtle friend was the one scratching. Huh?? This little turtle could boogy. It was as snappy little turtle so I let it be until Troy came home.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TH73ARhQJgI/AAAAAAAAD-E/J5kqq3iyAcs/s1600/turtle.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="371" ox="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TH73ARhQJgI/AAAAAAAAD-E/J5kqq3iyAcs/s400/turtle.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TH73CA0dtBI/AAAAAAAAD-M/rWqEyNt_jmI/s1600/turtle2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="328" ox="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TH73CA0dtBI/AAAAAAAAD-M/rWqEyNt_jmI/s400/turtle2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Not 20 minutes later I hear the dogs freaking out. The crazy turtle with a death wish had made its way around to the side of the house where the gate that leads to my backyard is. Right by where the dogs are.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TH73DYz8_XI/AAAAAAAAD-U/8yBQNc45RIQ/s1600/turtle3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" ox="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TH73DYz8_XI/AAAAAAAAD-U/8yBQNc45RIQ/s400/turtle3.jpg" width="375" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And I swear this turtle is an instigator. See that gap above the turtle where the fence doesn't quite close? Well guess who was there trying to snap and bite at the turtle? Yep, the dogs. And the funniest thing...the turtle was snapping right back. By the time we left for soccer practice, the dumb turtle had wedged itself under the fence right by the dogs. Thankfully Troy came to the rescue and he and the kids ended up relocating the turtle to the bayou not far from our house.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We do not need any more pets. Talk about an interesting day!! I did try and move the turtle one time and the little sucker snapped at me. Of course I jumped and maybe screamed a little and the kids thought that was the funniest thing ever. HAHAHAHAHA! NOT!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Just thought I would share? How was your Wednesday?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Before I go.....a little new product sneak peek that will hopefully end up in my shop over the weekend.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TH73Imrr41I/AAAAAAAAD-k/UisOpxgLcaA/s1600/laptopsleevehandlesSNEAK.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" ox="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/TH73Imrr41I/AAAAAAAAD-k/UisOpxgLcaA/s400/laptopsleevehandlesSNEAK.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

We survived our first week (barely). I think Troy and I have had a harder time adjusting than the kids.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Here are the girls sporting their "First Day of School" duds. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Yep, they picked the same outfit. The only reason Baylee didn't pitch a fit is because Mollee is at a different school.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I have been seeing these new silicone watches that I love. The first one I saw was this <a href="http://www.fossil.com/">Fossil</a> one:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/THbHdEfMBwI/AAAAAAAAD8c/V40hsnb1q20/s1600/fossilblack.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" ox="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/THbHdEfMBwI/AAAAAAAAD8c/V40hsnb1q20/s400/fossilblack.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I LOVED it immediately. Only problem was that it was $95. OUCH! I just can't make myself pay that much no matter how much I want it. When I saw how much it was, I pouted. I really wanted it.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then a few days later at one of Baylee's softball practices I noticed one of the moms with a similar watch....only in gray. It wasn't exactly like the Fossil watch but pretty dang close. It was from <a href="http://www.sammoon.com/">Sam Moon</a>.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/THbHcErK6gI/AAAAAAAAD8U/h_4dqxNbERM/s1600/sammoonblack.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" ox="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HIh9InKlUGY/THbHcErK6gI/AAAAAAAAD8U/h_4dqxNbERM/s400/sammoonblack.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And the best part......it was $9.95. YEP! You heard that right. I ended up getting the black one and a white one and still saved myself $75. How great is that? So that is my deal of the week! Thought I would share!</div><br />

I have done a <a href="http://priddycreations.blogspot.com/2010/03/csn-stores-all-childrens-furniture.html">review for one of their furniture/bedding stores</a> in the past and have found them to be an easy company to deal with.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This time around, I had the pleasure of reviewing a product from <a href="http://www.luxebycsn.com/">Luxe by CSN</a>.

Since I make handbags and also have a handbag addiction, this was COMPLETELY up my alley!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The bag I reviewed was the <a href="http://www.luxebycsn.com/Kathy-Van-Zeeland-06H36103-BLACK-KVZ1026.html">Kathy Van Zeeland Nappa Belt Shopper</a> in black.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I am pretty picky about my bags. Both the ones I make and the ones I purchase. When I got this in the mail over the weekend, I was thrilled. Not only did I love the style even more in person than I did from the picture, but I was very happy with the quality of the construction of the bag and materials. No loose stitching that looked like it might unravel. Butter soft leather with a fun mix of patent leather. Jewel-tone mustard color durable material on the inside. And it had great storage. One inside zipper and several pockets. Not to mention the easy access pockets and zipper on the outside of the bag. FANTASTIC! And the price was extremely reasonable.<br />
<br />
What really drew me to this bag was the cinched top. I loved the design! And the icing on the cake......it matched my Coach wallet!! :)<br />

The website is extremely user-friendly with a wide variety of options for narrowing down your search. Pictures are clear and have zoom capabilities so you can really get a good look at what you are ordering. This site also includes information like how many items are in stock. Navigation was easy breezy. Overall, I would give the experience of shopping on the site TWO thumbs up and recommend that you check out their variety of stores.<br />

I have purchased some things with the "Buy It Now" auction but no "live" auctions. Today, that changed. I forgot how fun it is to wait until the last few seconds to place your bid and hold your breath to see if you won. Thankfully the breath holding paid off and my trigger finger for live auctions still worked. I scored a great wallet to go with this great backpack!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I recently purchased one of Vera Bradley's Lylas laminated backpacks in this print:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://resources-5.select2gether.com/shopping/images/real/10/66/59/vera-bradley-lylas-in-imperial-toile-10665995.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://resources-5.select2gether.com/shopping/images/real/10/66/59/vera-bradley-lylas-in-imperial-toile-10665995.jpg" width="325" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! This is my softball bag and it goes with me to every single tournament. You can just wipe it off if it gets dirty.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Well, I decided that I wanted a laminated wallet to go with it. The imperial toile Frill collection must be being discontinued because I could not find a wallet in this print/collection that didn't cost a small fortune. However, I did find something in a similar colorway. I did not want to pay $40 (with shipping) to get it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is what I found:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://images.marketplaceadvisor.channeladvisor.com/hi/62/61653/petal_wallet-very_berry_paisley-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="253" src="http://images.marketplaceadvisor.channeladvisor.com/hi/62/61653/petal_wallet-very_berry_paisley-1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">{photo credit: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Vera-Bradley-Frill-Collection-Paisley/dp/B003V5CD9W">Amazon</a>}</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The color scheme for the wallet does not match my bag perfectly, but it will work. And the best thing...I scored this brand new wallet for $23.00 which included shipping. A savings of $17.00. So now, I am ready for Fall softball!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Anyone score anything good lately?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
