30 before 30 update... deep breath

I got bangs.


And I'm not sure how I feel about it.  So I'm giving it a day or two before I post a picture.  Sorry.


Love,
Emmy

Secret Admirer or Creepy Gift Giver?

So, I arrive at my house after a day of absence to find two beautiful peacock feathers stuck through my doorknocker. No note.  No tag.  Odd, right?  How did these peacock feathers find their way to my door? 

If you knew where I lived, you'd know it could NOT have been accidental.  There is only one person that should ever pass by my door and that is the person that lives in even a more secluded spot than me in the apartment complex.  No one just happens upon our doors.  You have to be invited and given directions. So, was it a secret admirer who gave me this gift?! Or was it just a random creepy anonymous gift giver? 

Yours,

Yes, Please

Yours Emmy is on Etsy!

Yes, it's true!  My 30 before 30 list is being checked off quickly and it's VERY exciting!  I even was 2 pounds closer to my weight goal when I woke up this morning!  I just KNEW it was going to be a great day.

Well, as for "Yours, Emmy"... we're now on Etsy.  If you're not familiar with Etsy, it's an online collection of stores for those crafters of us who make handmade items.  Check it out at YoursEmmy.Etsy.com.

Since I've be sewing like crazy and being uber crafty as of late, I thought I'd use that to my advantage and start putting some things on sale via an Etsy store.  It's going to be a slow go of it getting things complete and posted on the store, but please visit often and let me know if there is anything you want to see more of!  Here are a few sneak peaks (and bad pictures - I need to practice my photography skills) at types of items I can make so far and will be putting on sale:

Pillows!
Bags!
Headbands!
Baby Toys!
Burp Cloths and Bibs!
Pants!

Yours,
Emmy
