Last night

Well I did a workshop at a scrap night at one of my friends school last night.. I think it went well... They invited me back to do the one they are having in January.. So I am psyched about that... I got 2 people to have a party after the holidays so hopefully those go well... Plus I got a couple of nice orders... Everyone had a great time... I demonstrated the dryer sheet technique... everyone loved it, especially since it was soo messy...lol
This morning i am working on a christmas garland to hang over my french doors and then i have to be in work at 1...yuck it was supposed to be my day off but i switched with someone.. oh well what are ya gonna do...
