Whatever you do................

Don't catch the virus that is going around. It had me down for a whole month, which is why I have not posted in so long. It's been a long, long month this last month. First I got sick right in the middle of my blog giveaway contest and I had already been sick 2 weeks before that.


Then on February 26, my 2004 dodge stratus was completely destroyed by some guy in a parking lot. It turned out that I owed more for the car than it was worth so I didn't get any money to replace it. The car company got the money and I still OWE! Grrrr. So no car with a teenager and a 15 month old and unreliable bus transportation where we live. So between a rental and my mom's car we have been making due.


Finally, yesterday Easter Sunday, my mom took me to a dealer she spoke to on the phone and after being there for 6 hours I drove home in a new 2007 Hyundai Accent silver. Here's a pic. So now I have a new car and things are looking up. My energy is coming back and I can post some pictures of things I have worked on. I sent out the two prizes for the blog giveaway too. So in a couple of days I will post those pictures. I hope everyone has a great week.



Prim Hugs,

100 posts and a winner

I was supposed to do this last night but have been sick again! I do apologize for not getting to this before now. We do have a winnder. I took all of the comments and then the emails letting me know that you advertised on your blog and put them in a bowl and had my daughter pull one name. Then I took the people who advertised separately and had my honey pull one name.\





The winner is Yvette, Yvette said "Wow Lisa 100 posts! You sure do talk a lot LOL. (Just kidding :0) Congratulations for getting to that milestone"



The second winner is Sue from Rabbithollowprimitives, Sue said "Woohoo way to go Lisa good job."



Ladies please email me your mailing addresses at lwagenhurst@hotmail.com so I can send your prizes off. I will post pics of the prizes later on today.



I want to thank everyone who took the time to come and post on my blog I truly appreciate it and would love to run another contest in the near future just for fun.

One more week

One more week until I draw the winner for the contest. Who will be the lucky person to win. Come on, tell all your friends about my giveaway and they can have a chance at winning something. It's Friday and I am mailing off two more swaps today and one more on Monday and I am done swapping for the time being. Now I can concentrate on some good news I recently got. If you read about my foray into the world of ebay in an earlier post, then you know that I will not try it again with them. I have been accepted as an artisan on http://dandeliondarlings.com/. The grand opening is on April 1. Woohoo!! Wish me luck..

Post number 98

Well this is my 98th post, only 2 more to go for 100. I'm not sure why 100 is such a milestone, but everyone seems to have some kind of giveaway or blogiversary when they hit 100. I have been busy with swaps again, but I am almost done and will devote time to my projects for my doll club meeting on March 1. I also am almost done with the blog giveaway prize and will post a picture this weekend most likely. I have some pictures to post later on and hope to have the energy and feel well enough to get online after work tonight. Until then, have a great day everyone!

Am I doing something wrong?

Ok, so I listed the little elephant doll on ebay and not one bid!! I was totally disspapointed about it and wodner what on earth I could have done wrong, is she not prim enough? is she too cutesie? was my starting price too low or too high? It had me knocked down for a few days. My website is still under construction, but has some stuff on it. I know I need to advertise more, but with the economy the way it is and my full time job outside the home not much time is left for all the advertising. I want to be able to create and post and sell some things too, but so far it is not working out very well. Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions would be sooooooooo appreciated.

95th Post and counting

No pictures to show tonight, I have been working on stuff, but mostly for swaps and can't show them until my partners receive them. This is my 95th post and we are closing in on 100, yay!! I am busy creating and in the midst of designing a free pattern for my blog. I hope to have it up by this weekend. Please bare with me and keep coming back, I promise that the giveaway will be worth the effort. I finally bought a scanner so I will be able to put some of my free patterns online. Have a great night..
