Yea, yea coming from the missy who doesn't have to sew it :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

They're done by hand, I don't own a sewing machine but Z has graciously put hers on hold and said I could give the one in progress to my godchild.

Aww what a sweet kiddo you have! 

I'm just not-so-secretly hoping you might be my FGM, because I would be over the moon if there was an awesome squid in my package! I am NOT a crafty person, but I love things crafted by other people!

 
In other news, I just got a box of unloved samples from my momma (she's subscribed to Ipsy/BB/Glossybox/etc.) and there are quite a few dupes for me in here. More to add to the FGCs box! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

I am totally using FGM/FGC because I am too lazy to type out Fairy Godmother and Fairy Godchild. Also, the 'O' is broken on my keyboard and I have to push SUPER hard to make it work!

 
What are the dates again for mailing out packages?  I still have a few things to order/receive but I'm so excited to send it!

I KNOW.  It's in July which is forever away . . . but I like the extra time & don't mind the "keep adding to it" over the next month & a half.  I always seem to go over "the budget" on these things, but for reals it makes me feel good to put together a whole "experience" for someone else.  It passes time for me & makes me feel like a part of something magical.  When all you do all day long is decode baby talk, clean up messes, do 5th, 3rd, Kindergarten, & preschool homework, clean house, & other things. . . this is my "me time" break.  Although I absolutely LOVE being a mom & wouldn't have it any other way. . . I still need that adult make-up obsessed woman time.  I'm taking my time with this & I'll be putting together something magical for my girl.  I hope she loves it.  It's already been super fun for me.  Now. . . ask me again mid-June & I'm pretty sure I'll be itching to mail it because I will be so excited I can't stand it.  It's going to take some dedication to keep it until July for sure.

Did I mention I love this?  SO MUCH FUN.

Totally get this! I have to drive to NM in Jun and Hubby comes home in Jul( which requires hoarding money like a crazy squirrel accountant) so I can't have the buying temptation around and if I didn't finish it now I'd probably have it still in Aug. I am by no means the shipping standard lol.
 
So I have 1 order on the way and a pretty good extra stash going but today I stumbled on the most perfect thing ever. So excited to have the first thing in hand!! I have a super fun theme all worked out in my head and now @@tweakabell sparked an idea for something handmade I'm going to do. I think the extra time will really help with that. Fairy godmother juices are a flowing today!!

 
I just got home from my first day at my new job and I am so exhausted. Now it's time to stalk and shop! I'm loving the Pinterest idea.

Oooh. . . why didn't I think of that?  I live on Pintrest.  ha ha ha.  I don't pin a WHOLE lot (mostly stuff for my kids birthday parties & holiday things), but boy do I stalk it for ideas for other things.  Thanks for the idea @
