Arm party + Man Candy {A Delicious Combo}

  Since I try not to post twice in one day, I'm double teaming this post today.   First you will see what I got in Yellow Heart Art and Much Love Illy's Arm Party. You can see it and the other linkys here.   Then you can feast your eyes on some serious man candy. Lena's Tuesday 10 is all about TV boyfriends, and much to my hubbys dismay, I have a few...   So sit back and relax. This post is all about parties. Arm Parties. Man Candy Parties. What more could a girl ask for?    

  This is the bracelet that I got! It's from thee sweetest little blogger Kiana. Baking, Fashion, and Band Camp. You don't get cuter than Kiana. So here is some of her handy work. I just love it. And I know it looks a little lonely all by itself, but I'm working on wearing more accessories. This gives me the motivation.  

This is the bracelet that I gave.

Yeah that's a hose clamp.

I'm super crafty right?

I had so much fun making this.

It doesn't look like the one I pinned exactly,

but I can't wait to make one for me!

You can find the tute here!

          Now for your viewing pleasure.   My 10 TV boyfriends.

Beauty Box Swap {Want some?}

Do ya all know Tiffany?
No, well let's talk about her.
Not behind your back, it's so not like that!

Tiffany found me in the bloggy world, and little did we know...
We live in the same city.
Say what?
Yeah, so she wanted to meet up.
And I said, "Uh, yeah!"
So we did with some other Fresno Bloggers.
Seriously who knew there was such a thing!
And now I blog stalk, er, follow Tiffany everywhere.
Instagram, Twitter, Bloggy.

Tiffany is a girl after my heart, and
when we talked with Shabby Kitteh,
we all agreed on one thing.

Blog gift exchanges are the biz.
And so are beauty products.
Like mint polish that is sold out.
Or beachy wave spray.
Dry shampoo.
We all confessed a love for product.

So now what?
Beauty Box.
Full of things you may not know you want or need,
but you'll love because it will be tailored to you.

Let's hear what Tiffany has to say.
She is the mastermind behind this.

Art Swap

About a month ago, Amber from Sneakers over Stilettos, and Lena from Mom 2 Memphis and Ruby, decided to do an art swap.  So a bunch of us bloggers were pair off to share some art.  The idea was to give a piece that was special to them, or would inspire them.  It sounded like a great idea!

Sounded.  Not because I didn't like my swap partner.  I love her.  I got to swap with Cat from Stuff I Love.  We had fun emailing back and forth.  Trying to get ideas.  And I had loads of ideas.  I wanted to wow her.  So I bought some canvas.  I tore up a book.  I mod-podged, and painted, and stenciled, and vinyl lettered.  And you know what happened?  Uh, nothing but mess.  Ugly cracking paint on canvass, and streaked stencils.  Well, I never claimed to be an artist.

So, please go stop at Cat's blog to see what I "swapped" with her.  I hope she is just as happy with her art as I am with mine.
Now on to my new pieces!

Cat wanted to know what my decorating style was.  I told her "messy".  I let her know that I was really looking to create a little blogging space of my own in a corner of my bed room.  That said, I was looking forward to inspirational pieces.  This is what I got:

She had no idea what a Star Wars freak I was in high school.

Do I have a stash of Star Wars Pez dispensers in my garage?

Do I still put Han and Leia on my tree?

You had no idea did you?

Not many people do.

This was perfect!

Can't wait to put this in a matted frame,

or perhaps on a canvas...

On second thought,

better skip the canvas!

Oh, Cat.  If you only knew.

Well by this, I guess you do.

This is so the story of my blog.

And motherhood.

And life.

This is so perfect.

This one is going in a bright colored frame.

I can't wait!

What is better than making friends AND getting cool stuff?  Looking at what everyone else got!  This is a linky party y'all! 

Art Swap!

Happy Blogging,

Megan
