Pintrest Post

I am addicted to Pintrest just as much as the next person. I find myself spending waaaaaayyyy to much time there. I can get lost for hours there looking at different things...prints, photographs, craft projects, wedding ideas, birthday party ideas, the list goes on and on. They even have ideas for clothing layouts. I have gotten ideas for outfits from there....it is the new time waster for me right up there next to facebook.

(Which reminds me I started a facebook page for Warm & Fuzzy so if you dont mind please, click the link and  geaux  and "like" the blogs FB page.)

Now onto so lovely things I have found on Pintrest...

Everyone have a happy wednesday!!

Yes, this post is random, but its my birthday so I can do that...

1st.. here is a shamless plug for Eli's girlfriend and my adorable future daughter in law Claire Ann- geaux vote for her in the Parent Magazine Cover Contest  Thanks !

2nd...I am gathering ideas to build a bit of a stock for my Etsy shop, pretty please with a cherry on a top, give me some themes for parties that you would like to see in a shop. They do not have to be the same generic party themes you always see. I would love to work on someting "a little different."

3rd...I leave for the beach on Thurday and I wont be back until Sunday night...ahhh vacation...

Like I said totally random but a happy tuesday to you all!!

This post inspired by my {NEW} sewing machine!!!

My birthday is tomorrow and my inlaws are so wonderful that they gave into this little blogging habit of mine. They were the ones who gave me my Silhouette , and they have now given me this!

Again I must say that I CANNOT I reapeat CANNOT sew. I am the person who hemmed my jeans with duct tape, because they were always to long and I never got them hemmed. I am soooo embarassed to type this. (probably not as embarassed as my grandmother who is actually an EXCELLENT seamstress) She is going to have to teach me A LOT. I can sew a button on  pants, thats about it. Oh and I can cross stich. So there you have it...My secret...I want to sew all the lovely things and have a brand new sewing machine but havent the slightest clue where to even begin.

On that note here are all the cute, adorable, or just plain droolworthy things I would love to be able to make one day...A girl can dream right?

Happy Mother's Day

I woke up to the most wonderful boys in my world. My husband, and two boys. Eli's school had made the cutest gift a handprint craft from each month with a little poem. SO CUTE. Then from both of them, Brian took the boys to Posh Paint Pub and they made me a platter that says " We love you Mommy." It has their Handprints on it and of course purple and yellow polka-dots on it. I cant wait to get a little stand for it and find a place for it in my kitchen.birthday
Since my birthday is Tuesday and Brian works at night, I wont see him for my birthday. I got my birthday presents early as well. YAY ME! I got a brand new Kindle w/ Wi-Fi!! AND his parents gave me a SEWING MACHINE!!

(DISCLAIMER: I HAVENT THE SLIGHTEST CLUE WHERE TO EVEN BEGIN WITH THE SEWING MACHINE- I CAN SEW A BUTTON ON AND THATS IT. ANYONE WANNA COME OVER AND GIVE ME LESSONS? ;) PRETTY PLEASE)

I promise to post pictures ASAP but now I am off to get dressed for the day- lots of visiting to do! I hope you are showered with kisses and hugs from your little ones and pampered from your not so little ones! You deserve it!

Mother's Day Gifts!

My class Mother's Day gift this year! I think they came out so cute!

The kids were able to ModPodge the scrapbook paper on to the blocks with some help from us.

( for confidentiallity reasons I am not posting pics of them doing this, but they had a blast!)

We obviously have one student who lives with her grandparents, so thats why we have Gran blocks too!

( I think those might be my favorite!)

I LOVE THESE!

Linking up to these parties:

Busy as a Bee!

Lots going on around here, I have plenty to do for many of my friends and I am happy to oblige. Hopefully that gets my name out and gets me known around town and more people will want me to help with their parties. So tonight this is where I will be:

sitting in front of my computer

with my lovely silhouette (think i should name her?) and a Diet Coke of course

watching MY TIGERS whip up on Tulane.

I have 2 birthday banners, and 10 centerpieces to make, I better get to cuttin'-

Happy 1st birthday to Leah! And Happy (belated) 13th birthday to 'Rica!

PS: GEAUX TIGERS!!!

Monday oh Monday

Blah.....so today was my first day back from Spring Break. We have only 17 more days left of school if I counted correctly. I am oh so busy. I did participate in the crafterminds tweetchat this afternoon about media kits. I am really feeling like my blog is so small at this point that having a media kit would be so unnecessary. I have less than 50 followers and dont have a shop up and running. My goal for the summer IS to get a Paper Party goods shop up and running but until then what do I have to offer except my few craft projects and my blabbering? Maybe I am selling myself short? I just feel like what do I have to offer prospective advertisers? Maybe I need to think about it some more...Not really sure. Anyone else have a small blog/shop with just a few followers and still have a media kit with ad space for sale on their blog? Help!?!

Happy Saturday!

Yesterday I had a migraine but I was able to make a few more things for Bailey's Wizard of Oz themed birthday party.

This is the basket where the lollipop favors will be showcased. I think its really cute

Here are the centerpieces I made as well. Nothing to fancy but Bailey requested that her name be written "fancy", so this was fancy and she was still able to read it. 

And the best part of the whole crafting process from yesterday was while I was sitting at the table Eli was in the back yard playing with his water table, I looked out the window to check on him and THIS is what I see.

Yes, that is my son, peeing in the back yard. Yes, we live in Louisiana, but we do have indoor plumbing. HA HA. Brian was proud and thought it was hilarious. I did not think it was so funny. But I guess it could be worse.

Let's play I SPY {shoes & jewelry}

One of my favorite bloggers little miss momma is hosting a linky party called I SPY. She chooses a different theme each week and you take pictures of that theme and link up with other bloggers. I have been following along each week but have yet to have time to link up, but YAY for Spring Break because I have time and its one of my favorite themes {shoes & jewelry}! So if you get a chance swing by and check out all the shoes and jewelry that everyone else has...Thats my favorite part :)

{JEWELRY}

I am ashamed to say that this is what my jewlery box looks like most of the time.

Here is my fav piece of jewelry {besides my wedding ring}





Brian gave me this for Mother's Day right after I had Ben Henry and I love it. Makes me think of my boys every time I hear it clink.

{love}







Meet my {child care shoes}

Thats what Brian calls them. Because they cost as much as a week of childcare. LOL

I love them and thats all that matter. They go with almost everything I wear ( lots of black & gray) and I purposely wear things so I can wear them!

What I've been working on.

My friend Jessica's daughter Bailey will be celebrating her 5th birthday this Saturday. She is having a Wizard of Oz themed party. She is having the party at a gymnastics studio that doesnt allow decorations. BOO! So that leaves me out. But I was able to help Jess with these thank you tags.

She bought the stickers from an Etsy seller and I "Warm & Fuzzied" them up for her by adding the rainbow papers. I think they are pretty cute. I am also making a cute sign for her favor basket, she is giving the kids big lollipops. SO the sign is going to say " For the Lollipop Kids Love the Munchkin. I will post a pic when I am done with that. Its coming along quite cute!

Happy Wednesday!
