I am participating in the Chicagoland Buddy walk on 10/10/10. We are trying to raise $500 as a team. Here is the link to my personal page, if you would like to donate. Or you can even join our team. We are looking for people to walk with us.
Any donations are appreciated. I am also selling keychains, with all profits going to buddy walk, on my facebook store!

School Supply Shopping
I went and did a little school supply shopping tonight. I only grabbed what I could remember because I forgot to put the supply list in my purse.
I do not remember Jake's list being so long and detailed last year! Wow!
I figured I would blog about the expenses and see what the grand total is when I am actually done with it.
This post will be updated and crossed off once I actually purchase the items. I estimate it will be roughly $300 for everything including uniforms...not including outerwear, even though we need to purchase larger sizes this year. Really If I had more than 1 kid I would go broke buying everything!!!!
Clothing:
5 uniform polos
5 uniform pants
2 uniform shorts for hot days (luckily these still fit from last year)
5 undershirts because white polos are see thru
1 approved sweater/sweatshirt to wear in school because only certain ones can be worn (reuse from last year)
1 pair of new shoes
1 backpack
Also needed but optional I suppose...new socks and underwear. It makes it more fun to have all "new" stuff for a new school year.
Because Jake had a growth spurt we also need :Winter Jacket, Light Jacket for fall and spring plus snow boots, hat and gloves (reused from last year)
Now for the required school supply list!!!
Item---------------------------total cost not including taxes which are 10.25% in my county
$10 mandatory----------$10
1 5 subject notebook
1 24ct crayola colored pencils
2 48ct crayola crayons
2 disinfectant wipes (no baby wipes) $1.99 each on sale - $3.98
2 4ct dry erase markers
4 large erasers
1 addition flash cards
1 subtraction flash cards
7 folders with pockets
3 8oz elmers glue
5 glue sticks--------2 for .25-----$0.75

WOW Long time no post!
I have been super busy creating stuff. My entire January thru March was comsumed with bottle caps . My April thru June has been consumed with bottle caps, little league and a few fests.
Maybe you saw me somewhere?
I was at Villa Park Summerfest on June 19th.
I was also at Little Boots Rodeo on June 27th.
Both shows were a blast. I am now addicted to fests LOL I am currently looking for some more fests to participate in. I will keep you updated on shows on my side bar :) Take a look

Last Day for Online Orders & More
Last Call for all online orders to arrive by Christmas. If you are needing to order bottle caps for upcoming show or to make gifts, the last day to order is December 10th!!! Orders must be paid for by midnight cst or I cannot guarantee delivery by December 23rd (so you have a day to make stuff!) Any order placed after that date that needs to be there by Christmas will incur a $25 fee for rush service and overnight shipping!!!
If you need to place an order for COMPLETED keychain, clips or anything else, the Last Day to order online is Dec. 12th. Items must be paid for by midnight.
If you are local and want to place an order and you are willing to pick up your order, the last day to order is December 17th!!!
I will be taking a MUCH MUCH needed break from December 20th thru the new year! You can still place orders, but I will not begin working on them until January 2nd!
I will be at Builta School in Bolingbrook tomorrow from 10am-2pm. I hope you can stop by and see me. There will be lots of activities for kids and Santa will be making an appearance :)
I would like to thank my wonderful customers this year! Thank you for choosing me to be your supplier or for choosing my hair accessories for your child. Without you, alot of things would not be possible for me!
Merry Christmas!!!
