Weekend Wind-Down #122

It was another busy weekend here at Rancho Cocoa...Missy busted out 30 NEW BADGE DESIGNS Friday night, so we spent the last couple of days printing, cutting out, and punching buttons. We're still stocking up for the big I.C.E. ATLANTA sale this coming weekend, but also, Missy wanted to get caught up on her 365 PROJECT...if you didn't know already, Missy is planning on making a unique ONE-INCH BUTTON for everyday of 2011...that's 365 original designs! You can follow her progress on her 365 Project HERE...she's all caught up now, but we still have to take photos of each new button, and that probably won't happen until after the big craft sale at the end of the week. Anyways, check it out!



























Missy got a bunch of new laser-cut wood items, like this new CUPCAKE CHARM that she designed (more on the wood stuff later)...she took it for a test drive while we set up our CRAFT BOOTH in our living room. We're setting it up so we can price everything and determine exactly what we need to bring and what we can leave behind. Of course, NILLA thought she'd help out by supervising our progress...
