My Table Monday - 50 Party Favors!!

So it turns out that I took a short unexpected hiatus from blogging.  It started with Mother's Day weekend taking planned much needed time away, then last week I got 2 large custom orders. I love custom orders - they are my favorite. 

I missed blogging a lot while I was busy sewing so things will be back to normal and I will be posting more this week!

I'm pleased to share with you that I recieved a custom order request for 50 owls in 3 days.  The owls were ordered on a Tuesday and needed for a special birthday party across the country by Sunday.  This meant I had to be at the post office no later than 1:00pm Friday afternoon for express overnight shipping. Needless to say only 8 hours of sleep in 3 days, & 50 owls later I made it to the post office by noon with an hour to spare last Friday!

I still love making these cuties.  So - Let me know if you have any parties planned this summer, and I will get started on your order.  Preferably with a little more notice this time, lol. This was the best picture I was able to get in the mad rush to the post office. A special shout out to my mom who helped me out with my son, and helped me get the order complete in time.
