Talk About Tuesday (Updated)

********Update*********
I've had a lot of ?'s about this product.....so I wanted to share how I stumbled across these.  I was in Hancock Fabrics buying heat resistant material to make hot pads.  The clerk commented on the material and said she didn't know why companies didn't make curling iron covers.  My mind was a thinking!!!!  She said, long ago, curling iron covers were available to buy but in recent years was unable to find any......and that's how it started!  On my way home I decided how I was going to make these and got work.

********The Original Story*********

I had a great work day yesterday....I made these Hot Iron Sleeves.  I love making these, they are fun and useful. 
I wanted to share them on Talk About Tuesday because I'm so proud of myself for finishing.  I've sold out of all my other Sleeves so I was desperate to have  more. 
The last few weeks have been so busy getting the kids ready for school.  I think moms should get a bonus box of bon bons, a long, hot bath and a wonderful massage  for accomplishing this task. 
Anyway, I have to get back to work.  I have two shows coming up and I have a lot of catching up to do.
 

These sleeves are great for your curling iron or flat iron.  The lining is a heat resistant material to keep a warm (not HOT) hot iron safe.  Remember to unplug your iron for at least one minute before putting it inside the sleeve.  A great traveling tool for your suitcase too.  Measures 5"x15"  $10 each.

Secret Shopper Game

I was invited to play another game on Etsy.  It's a secret shopper game.  Several shops get together and look at each others shops.  We choose three to four shops we want to buy from....and when it's time and everyone has had time to window shop.......the leader of the game tell us to send her, through convo, the shops we want.  After a few minutes, she tell us who we have.  Your choices have to be sent in fast, to get who you want.  It's a min. of $15.  So....you spend $15 and someone else spends money on you.  You can come out even or ahead or in the hole, depending on how much you spend.  Does that makes sense?  Okay.....I'll show what I got.  I got a steal...everything was half price.....awesome.  So here they are, check them out!

Allyson Hill * Car Litter Bags

If you have a car and kids...you have Garbage!!!  With our seven kids it tends to get a little messy.  Since finding these Car Litter Bags I've been able to keep the trash off the floor.  I bought two of these and I love them.  One of the ones I bought is pictured.  These are easy to use and very convenient. You can find more styles by checking out her Etsy Shop or Blog.

Girls Only!!!!

I find fun things all the time.....can you guess what these are?  There called Hideaways from Madbags(go to her site for pictures of the inside).  A very cute way to hide tampons and pads.  Madbags did an outstanding job creating these.  Check out her blog here.

I'm making some of my own to sell.  The design will be a little different so I don't copy her design.  Let me know if this is something you would be interested in.  I'll post my design soon.
