BOGO Sale in Honor of My Birthday by la01shelle

Awww, my friend LaShelle on etsy is having a special BOGO sale in my honor because today is my birthday!
Now I feel like a celebrity! That is so cool!


Here is her shop: la01shelle. Convo (contact) her with your choice of earrings and she will make a reserved listing for you with the second pair FREE.

Believe me, she has beautiful earrings. I have bought the ones pictured and they are waiting to be given to a friend on a special occasion. Now you know that I make jewelry myself, so it would have to be something pretty special for me to buy jewelry from someone else. They are so unique and really stunning! ♥


I'm going to her shop now and ... well, who can pass up a BOGO?

Special Announcement!

a special announcement in honor of my birthday March 21

http://www.BlytheAndMe.com is now

I am part of a website especially created for selling awesome items for the Blythe doll.

Check it out! I would love to hear some feedback comments here on my blog.

Prize Chosen by Winner of Blog Giveaway

The winner of my blog giveaway is Jennifer and this is the outfit she chose as her prize from ReesasFavorites.

Winner of Giveaway on TheFeatureCafe

I was featured on Mannie's blog, TheFeatureCafe last week and offering a giveaway of a pajamas and blanket set for the American Girl doll.

I just got home from vacation tonight and found out that the winner chosen in a random drawing was Nikki, better known as zappyturtle! Congrats, Nikki!

Thanks to all who participated in this giveaway!

Contest Winner!!

ATTENTION: Announcing the winner of my blog giveaway!! The winner is JENNIFER MONDRY of MondrysYknotShop.etsy.com. Jenn will be picking the item of her choice from my shop, ReesasFavorites.etsy.com. I'll let you know after I contact her personally what she picked.

Thanks to all who participated in the blog giveaway! It was fun for me and I will be having another contest soon, for my other Etsy shop, RetroReesa.etsy.com. So stay tuned...

Also we just got back from our vacation, so I will be blogging about that soon! ☺

AND I will be announcing the winner of the Pajama and Blanket Set for American Girl doll that I had a giveaway contest for on TheFeatureCafe.blogspot.com.

Surprise! Vacation!!

Surprise! Hubby and I are going on vacation tomorrow through Sunday! We are going to nail down a plan (which means decide where to go) and pack tonight and take off in the morning.

It seems so strange to be going just the two of us. This is our first vacation as "empty nesters." Plus we have rarely taken vacations all our lives. So we are excited to be getting to go somewhere!

I'll be blogging all about it next week!
And announcing the winner of my giveaway!

Yippee, I am following my followers!

Somehow I managed to add the 2 people I wanted to follow to my list. Yay! Whew!

There is the "lost" entry!

Ok, I see my lost entry about RetroReesa.

But I still don't remember how to follow someone...

UH OH, I need help again, please, friends!

I wrote a blog entry and I guess it disappeared into cyberspace!

Now I can't remember how to follow someone and I have 2 people I want to follow...

Anybody reading this, would you help me?

Blog on!

Ok, here I go---

Today I will talk about,, uh,,,, what??? Right now I really can't think about anything other than the CPSIA, and I sure don't want to talk about that!

Think I'll put on some really LOUD music and sew something for my grandbaby. That always makes me feel better.

Later--
Reesa

Here I go blogging again!

All right, let's see if I can make this blog post without having to run crying "help me" to Amanda.

What should I talk about? Well, have I told you that I am on twitter now? Come tweet at me here.

I'm still not sure what all happened, but who cares???!! because it is fixed now. Thanks to the wonderful knowledgeable Amanda! ♥ She gave me step-by-step instructions which I followed and now the mysterious accidental blog is GONE. Whew!

Ok, look for me to be posting every day so I don't forget how...

TROUBLE

EEEKKKK I'm having trouble here remembering how to post on my blog. Somehow I created a new account or blogspot or something. Sometimes I can go to it and sometimes I can't. Sometimes when I log in I see the post I wrote on ReesasFavorites@bellsouth.net (which it is supposed to be) and sometimes I don't. Sometimes I see three names to choose from when I'm signing in: ReesasFavorites@bellsouth.net (which is what I want for blogging) , Reesa, and ReesasFavorites--Reesa@bellsouth.net (there is no such email address!) I'm throughly confused and don't know what to do. When I figure this out I am going to blog every day so I don't forget how to do it!

I can't do this by myself so my good friend Amanda of sygnetcreations.etsy.com is helping me. She is the most patient person you will ever meet! I'm so grateful to have her as my friend. Thanks, Amanda! ♥

Yippee! I've got followers!

I'm excited to see that I have 5 followers! Welcome to my blog!

I think "followers" is funny -- I can just picture us all walking around in a virtual world on a maze-like path hanging in space. This is going to be fun! I love my internet friends! ♥

My first blog on blogspot!

I have been wanting to have a blog here for some time. Thanks to my friend Amanda, of sygnetcreations I was able to do it today. She always knows how to do things computer-related, and is always happy to help when I need it. Thanks, Amanda! ♥

My 2009 New Year's Resolution is to become more computer literate! Getting a google account and blogging here is the start!

I have a blog on MySpace called Reesas_Favorites that I have been learning on and having fun there for a while.

I have two shops on Etsy.com. ReesasFavorites which is my doll specialty shop, and RetroReesa which is empty right now but will eventually contain items with a retro feel. I took a month-long vacation from selling anything and am just now getting back into business. I have 5 items listed in ReesasFavorites now -- all doll clothes outfits for Blythe. I'm having a special offer there to celebrate the re-opening of my newly renovated shop. Here is the link to find out about it:
FREE Outfit with Purchase.

I love Etsy and I'm sure that I will be talking about it a lot! ♥
