So anyway . . . made a stop at Michael's this morning where I got some silk flowers for a craft project. Apparently floral stems can't be snipped with just anything, so my plans to complete my little crafty project will have to wait until I can get my hands on a better tool. (I already messed up some heavy duty kitchen scissors and a pair of wire strippers/cutters attempting to cut stems).
Also stopped at Frances (finally). Very cool store with a bunch of neat things.
Saw this wide belt I really liked. After trying it on though, I came to the conclusion that Greg was right all along when he said that my body type (i.e., short) is not suited for wide belts. Too bad. I tried so hard to believe and convince both of us that I just didn't have the right belt.
A couple dresses caught my eye there too, not that I could justify actually getting either of them:
I really liked this brown and white printed dress with mint green sheer overlay
I just liked the look of this dress.
I thought this baby tee was so cute, I couldn't pass it up:
The lady who owned Frances was very nice - she let me take pictures to post : ). She opened the store last year, I think pretty much from scratch. Takes a lot of work and guts to start your own business . . . I'm always impressed to hear of the ones that have been successful, because it can be such a gamble.
Went to Lucky 15 after Frances - they had a spring sale going on. I know I said that I didn't really need more scrapbooking stuff . . . but how could I pass up a sale?!
Overall, a pretty productive day for me given that the alternative would have seen me getting up at 12:00 or 1:00. I don't seem to be able to sleep in as late as I used to when I was younger . . . my back starts to hurt after 10 or 11 hours.
