Shabby Shriek!!!

SHRIIIEEEEK!!!!

Oopsie! Sorry! I forgot to use my inside voice, but when I saw the price tags on these gift guide goodies, I lost myself for a moment there! I never knew Shabby Chic was SO lucrative even in this oh so dreadful economy!

I'm going to have to go out and buy some fraying fabric and a Craft Robo now. I think if I add fake cloth flowers and vinyl decals to my terrarium enterprise, I'll finally get my own front page feature and make boodles of bucks!

If you'd like to see more Shabby Chic fabric flowers, be sure to check out this lovely site!

Green and Growing in Springtime!

Oh LOOK! I made a terrarium too! Goodie for me! And best of all it was so easy and cheap to make! My little nine year old niece, Skipper, showed me how to do it! I'm going to start making them and selling them. I see that they're fetching upwards of $40-$50!!!! Wow! And all it cost was a DOLLAR to make! I'm going to be RICH in no time!!!

Mr. Etc was kind enough to film me making one and I wrote out the instructions. Now you can make one too! Let's all get rich together!!!
