You know the saying "It's a small world"... people usually say it when they bump into someone they know in an odd place, or when you find out your new neighbor is really your cousin from Ireland... The saying doesn't REALLY fit today, but whatever, it is the one that is running through my head as I announce this week's VIP. Congrats, MarLena! 10% off and free shipping all this week. And if you email me before I announce the next VIP, and tell me your FAVORITE colors, I will send you a free pair of winipoo earrings, custom made just for YOU.

The thing is, I've been thinking of MarLena ALL WEEK! My mind will want to type "Melissa" or "Myrinda", but instead, I'll type MarLena! And MarLena is not an easy name to type! I gotta hold the shift key down twice. ;-)

So I've been making typos, and thinking about MarLena, and then I pull her name for VIP. So... it's a small world. Or deja-vu. Or what a coincidence! Or... whatever. Congrats, MarLena. You better email me! LOL!!

Have you all checked out my new auctions? They are so so fruity.

I hit the motherload today.

I am decluttering my house. And I found (I haven't seen this stuff since Johnathan was a baby, so, like, 11 years) my music collection. That is right. I didn't exactly LOSE the collection. I just FORGOT about it, my life being taken over by Barney and Thomas the Tank Engine.

Lately, I've been remembering some of my younger days, that were so influenced by music. It's that sattelite radio John got me for Christmas! I love that thing. I'll be driving along, and I'll be listening to 80s Alternative, back when it really was alternative music, and a song will come on that I will not have thought of since I was wearing hotpants over black tights. Man, does it take me back.

So today, I am ripping music onto my harddrive, and I'll be featuring some select songs here for you. I thought The Poozies "Another Train" would be a good one, to stick with the a cappella genre for another week. I don't remember buying this cd. But I know it was "recent", as the release date is 2000.

My previous music features will still be accessible at the bottom of this page. Enjoy :-)

All three kids are sleeping over my in-laws' house tonight. Yippee!! :-) Party time! Hmmm, maybe I should pick some music that is a bit more upbeat. Hehehe.

Hello!! Happy April Fool's Day! I've been tricked all day long. My kids are having a good time. Hehehe :-)

Yesterday, Johnathan and I went to the Kimmel Center and heard the Philadelphia Orchestra play music from Fantasia. It was a true joy.


On the way back to the train, we stopped in F.Y.E. (what used to be Tower Records). I treated myself to a cd. I haven't bought myself some tunes in ages. Well, I've caught this song a few times on satelite radio, and I love it, so I bought the whole shebang. The artist is Imogen Heap. The song is called "Hide and Seek". I can't speak for the rest of the cd, because I haven't listened to it yet. But here is the song that I think is cool (moved to the top of the webpage!)

Update day!! Who is this week's VIP? Congrats, Steph0117!! 10% off and free shipping all this week. Plus, email me your favorite colors, and you will receive a free pair of custom earrings, just for YOU!

I have TONS of stuff ready for auction tomorrow. I can't WAIT for you to see!!

FYI: I am trying out a new email service this week for my what's new update. I am going to send it through Vertical Response. If it goes smoothly, I am going to switch my mailing list over to them. I like Bravenet, but Vertical Response has some cool features, like stat reports and stuff, that I think will be rather useful.

That's all for now. Be sure to stop back tomorrow to check out all my new designs!

Hello! Thanks for stopping by today to check out what's new. I am still recovering from my WONDERFUL weekend to New York City. I could not have dreamed of a more pleasant experience. I love New York!!

I posted pictures. You can see them here: http://winipoofun.com/NYC0307.htm

On Thursday, LimeVine will be bringing you designs inspired by seaglass. The pearl fringe bracelets are no longer available, so I designed something new for this theme.



Look for that, and many more new designs, on eBay this Thursday!

I am participating in such a FUN eBay launch this week. The theme is Beatlemania. I've seen previews of some of the designs, and they are the funnest!! I have a bracelet and necklace set to offer, custom created for a child or adult.

I will be out of town Friday morning to Sunday evening on a trip to NYC. Yay!!! I'll be sure to buy lots of beads, and take lots of pictures. :-)

Thanks for stopping by today! Have a great weekend!!

Top of the mornin' to ya!

I submitted a press release to area newspapers regarding the Boutique Angels, and two of them picked up the story, The Pottstown Mercury & the Spring-Ford Reporter. The writer for the Reporter did a little phone interview with me. That is always a bit embarrassing for me, because I think that the words coming out of my mouth are stupid sounding. But Lynn Jusinski did a great job of making me not sound too dorky. Here is a link to the article:

http://www.zwire.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=18083163&BRD=1306&PAG=461&dept_id=562928&rfi=6

The surprising thing for me though, was that the article was on the FRONT PAGE, along with a picture of the bracelet I am auctioning for the ASA!! Isn't that exciting?? Thank you, Lynn!!

I have pictures for you of two bracelet that are for ebay next week. Unless you want them. Then email me and I will sell one or both to you!! They are Ocean themed. Freshwater pearls & fine silver sea shells. Gorgeous!! One is Sunrise, and one is Sunset.





$55 a piece. They'll start on eBay next week at $60. Email me at winipoo@aol.com if you want to get you a winipoo!

Have a great weekend!!

Hello! Thanks for stopping by today! My southwestern jewelry is listed on eBay. I hope you'll go check it out!!

I have some new designs coming up later this week. Here is a CUTE necklace made to match an upcoming fleur*lenfant design.

Remember WAY WAY WAY back... when we celebrated my website's birthday? Well, way way back, Michelle won a gift certificate from playing one of the games. And way way back, she told me what she wanted: an autism awareness bracelet. You'd think that something so sweet and simple I'd be able to whip up in an evening... but I struggled with this design for MONTHS!

X
Yes, it turned out sweet and simple; you'd never know the hours I speant pondering this bracelet! KUDOS to all the jewelry girls that do awareness bracelets!

And speaking of autism awareness, starting next Monday, the Boutique Angels will be launching auctions on eBay, with 100% of the sales going to The Autism Society of America. I will have a special design for that launch. Stay tuned for more info!

Happy update day! Who is this week's VIP? Congrats, Elise P! 10% off and free shipping all this week. Email me before the next VIP is announced, and tell me your fav colors, and I will make youa free custom pair of winipoo earrings :-)

Not much new this week. I relisted a few auctions.

I relisted Nocturne with a Buy It Now option. Just go on in there and buy it - no bidding at all. Don't you think Kelly Preston's Oscar dress would have been so much BETTER if she had a winipoo to go with it?





Don't mess with fashion, girls. Don't walk... RUN and get YOU a winipoo! :-)
