Last Day!

It was a great day- and so fun to meet so many of you! (The flooded upstairs toilet- not so fun.)We hope you are excited about the treasures you packed home, bring your friends back tomorrow. Don't forget to pick up some of Crystal's delicious homemade chicken noodle soup and rolls to take home for dinner- they go fast, so come snatch yours up early!

Parking

No, not the making out with your boyfriend parking- The where do I park at Oh Sweet Sadie! All of the homes that are For Sale in the cul-de-sac are a-ok with parking in front of their homes, and in their driveways. Feel free to park on either side of the street. Please, please, please do not block the driveways of the 2 homes that are occupied in Rock Canyon Circle. Specifically, the home directly across from the event. 5 hours to go! Yipee!

It is 1:00 am, do you know where your man is?

Mine is sound asleep. He is not indulging this insanity any longer. We will be ready at 9:30 am for the fun to begin! The place is packed with the most darling, original, yummy creations- I am amazed at the beauty women can create. Look forward to seeing you at the show!
Don't get lost- Print the directions or bring your map (and your wallet)! Do not use mapquest or google maps, the subdivision is too new and they are not accurate. Call if you get turned around, 635-9422.

L is for the way you Look at me, O is for the Only one I see....Times Up!

Congratulations to Hilary for Liking Oh Sweet Sadie Very Entirely! I asked my neighbor's husband to judge this contest because I thought so many were very clever... I could not decide. He emailed me the winner and said, "It never hurts to suck up to the judges." So there you have it.

The contest today is the best acronym for LOVE. Come on all you creative ladies... this can be the most fun you have all day, and the prize is definitely worth the cognitive effort.

THE PRIZE:
1.
Bitsy Blossoms is giving away these little beauties to adorn your little beauty.

2. Jamie Bringhurst, of Studio JK, is an organinzational consultant (the very profession my mother wishes I was interested in) and she is donating both sets of her “Arts & Crafts” labels. They are 4 inch picture labels for children’s arts & crafts. You directly apply the labels to the front of children’s art & craft supply containers for instant recognition! They were specially made for use with children 5 & under. Children in this age bracket typically cannot read, so the use of pictures gives that familiarity to them & allows them to visualize what item belongs in what container. Each set has 6 labels.

3. Nycole Rosen is giving a $10.00 gift certificate to purchase any of the incredible creations at her booth.

4.

Lauri Cox is giving this beautiful pendant- it has a cool iridescent finish.

5. And if all of that is not enough, Logan Hammer, the man who sells fantastic headbands, is willing to part with 2 for the winner of this contest.

The contest closes at midnight tonight! (Hopefully when we are finished setting up and ready to open Friday morning. Yipee!)

You are what you eat... so eat something cute!

If you needed a little treat while shopping- Amanda Packham of Cutie Cakes has something scrumptious for you to snack on while you shop. You can choose from vanilla cake with strawberry swiss meringue buttercream frosting, or banana cake with cream cheese frosting, or chocolate cake with mascarpone cheese frosting, ooor vanilla cake with chocolate cream cheese frosting. Did I mention they are too cute to eat? Save your points ladies, you're going to need them!

Baby Bintz

Carlie Wedel is among the growing group of “Mom Inventors.” After becoming very unsatisfied with the grocery store selection of Binkie Clips, she decided to design her own for daughter, Halle. Carlie had so many compliments and questions from other moms in stores, on planes, and at the park, that she decided to start making them for other moms and babies to enjoy. With much success Carlie launched her designer line of Binkie Clips in 2003 and now sells them and other great products all over the United States to many happy customers.

“The one thing children wear out faster than shoes is parents.”

That is a great quote from John J. Plomp. Today's prize is a darling pair of glamor baby booties from Jenni Moody, my favorite cowboy or sneaker booties from Sarah Natividad and a free pair of shoes from Studio 32 Shoes! And today's contest is an easy one. Anyone who makes a comment will be entered into a drawing. Contest is closed... Watch the video to discover the winner....

You'll just have to trust me. I have a number between 1 and 100 written down, in a sealed envelope, and under the watchful eye of my 5 year old daughter. (wink.)
