Quick weekend update, I wish I gotten more pictures but here goes…
Took a short road trip up to McHenry to visit Ashley (we had some official S&H business to get to) and it was my first time ‘officially’ visiting the Black Orchid Boutique, a new store Carol opened. It’s soo cute! I love the store space, the furniture and displays, super fun. Dreaming and wishing about our own store, a long way into the future…

My handmade necklaces are now available in a retail setting. Really, really exciting! Of course, you can grab them on
our Etsy page – get 15% off with the coupon in the sidebar – I’ll be posting ~new jewelry pieces later this week.

I tried on a lovely floral dress from Billabong, thinking when to wear it out. I’ll be back in McHenry next Saturday for their famous sidewalk sales – cannot wait!!! Check out more store pix below…
