Wuglyees Is All Boxed Up!!

    Aren't these boxes great!! They're perfect to put your customer's jewelry in for the Fall season, don't you think?! These aren't the ones I got though. I just saw these this morning! I did get some though. I got 50 of these...
     I got them from a great Etsy shop called NotableNotions. They have a whole section of Presentation Boxes! I needed some that were see through on the top, and a bit larger than the regular jewelry display boxes. My crochet necklaces need more room to spread out! And since they're fiber/crochet, I can't just leave them in the air when they are on a shelf to sell, or at a craft show. And it appears that that may be my next move...to have my necklaces and crochet jewelry in a Craft Mall type outlet.
    If I had the money I'd probably be stocking up on boxes from this shop. They have all kinds of shapes and sizes! You'll have to check it out for yourself. They have 12 pages of boxes...and all kinds of other supplies too!! I particularly love these boxes though...
      If you buy these you can save on wrapping paper, ribbons, and bows! Your jewelry will show up at the customer's house like a little present! :-)
    It was nice to get something in the mail yesterday, to distract me.  My activities, due to this pinched nerve in my arm, have been curtailed. I spend my time sitting with my arm slung up, listening to magazines, watching TV, and eating and resting. (I got a really nice long distance phone call from my "New" cousin last night too!!) I guess sipping on soup and taking EXTRA naps is better than sucking down pain pills and screaming! ^_^
    I'm kidding because, actually, my arm is feeling a lot better. I can move it almost everywhere now, except for up and down in one area. But at least it isn't aching every minute like it was a few days ago! Massages and resting it in the sling is really working wonders. I'm even typing a bit with my fingers on that hand right now! I can feel it getting tired though so, before I take off for the day, let me introduce you to another AWM team member. Her Etsy shop is emilybetti. This is her business card.
    And this Ebony Elegance Bracelet is from her shop.
    Beautiful, huh?! Please go by and check out the other cute items she has too!
   Okay, poem.

Hanging Out

I'm hanging out, and eating,
this and that, pick, pick, pick!
There's not much else to do
when you're home and feeling sick.

Listening to some music,
making plans in my head.
Just like a tuna, flipping
back and forth in my bed.

Laughing at the T.V.,
playing scrabble all alone,
Looking at the walls
while I'm chatting on the phone.

I'm hanging out, and waiting
for a change in the weather,
for my cold to go away,
and to feel a whole lot better.

Then it'll be back to work,
and I'll be up and about,
waiting patiently for a day,
when I can just be hanging out!
