Pay It Forward



I heard about Kelly at "Till Death Do Us Part" from Michelle at Petite Michelle Louise.

Both have beautiful blogs and a lot of great ideas to share. Michelle is participating in a blog project called...Pay It Forward 2011! She found out about it from Kelly. When I read about it, I wanted to be included, but was a little concerned about finding the time to create something extra. But the idea is pretty awesome and what a great way to motivate me to create! It's also a fabulous way to gain new friends, receive inspiration from the creativity of others and last, but not least, to "pay it forward".

Here are the guidelines:

The first five people who comment on this blog post will receive a handmade gift from me! (Devonay of Lumpkin and Me)

In return, you must FIRST write a blog post explaining Pay It Forward 2011.
Then.... send out a handmade gift to the first 5 visitors who leave a comment. Take your time...you don't need to send them in the next few days. These creative gifts made with your hands and hearts will be worth the wait.

So, what are you waiting for? It's bound to be a lot of fun!
I liked what Michelle said on her blog: "It's not the size of the gift that matters, but the spirit of paying it forward."

Act quickly! Michelle's 5 openings filled up fast!

P.S. If you haven't seen the movie... you just gotta!!! It's awesome!

UPDATE: There are still a couple of spots open!!!!!

Thank You For Being A Friend

So the good news this week is my tax check came! Yay!!!
I have wanted to order something from my good friend Cindy Adkins' etsy shop for some time now and I did! She makes the cutest things!


I was so excited to see the package in the mailbox. I opened it and it came in this sweet little bag with a little bling of embellishment. I'm all about the sparkle!

She also sent an added little bonus... the tag shown above, with more of my favorite elements on it. It's like she reads my mind! Even more special was the sweet personal message on the back. I will cherish this, Cindy!

And I wish I had a better shot of the necklace. My camera doesn't do it justice. You've gotta stop by Cindy's blog and see all of her beautiful creations. Don't forget to check out her etsy shop as well.
