Vintage Find and Swag Reminder!

May 14th, 2008 8:49 am by Naomi in Day to Day at Glitter

Finally! A little vintage find to share with you. These adorable squirrel salt and pepper shakers are up in the shop

Our anniversary ended up quite nice with dinner and root beer floats at my in-law’s house although it was pretty rough for a while after school. My kids have decided that I, and I quote “treat them like slaves” because I had the nerve to ask them to carry their laundry basket up stairs and remove their fort from our neighbors yard (neighbors I don’t even know!). Yep. We’re pretty awful. Oh, and we asked them to start washing off their own dishes after breakfast. Usually this consists of one plate / bowl, a utensil and a juice cup. My mother-in-law does make some type of magical spaghetti though, so once I told them we weren’t going to be able to go if they didn’t knock it off, things shaped up pretty quickly. They could probably eat an entire pot of her spaghetti if we didn’t make them stop!

Craftacular related, I am still taking donations for the 50 swag bags for the June 28th show. Some of you have already contacted me about this, so if you could mail it as soon as possible that would be great! I’m hoping to have the bags done by the 16th of June so this gives me just about a month to finish collecting goodies.

Remember, you do not have to be a vendor to participate! Any artist or crafter who would like to get our their card, promo, or small sample to 50 customers, media and shops is welcome to be a part of this. Simply leave a comment on here with a way to contact you, or email me at naomi@glitterworkshop.com and I will get you shipping instructions.

Thanks so much and wish me a better day today with my little slaves! Laundry is done, but they are going to have to help change their bedding…. uh-oh..
