I was busy to an extent this weekend. Over the past week I have been taking some of my jewelry supplies with me to work and stringing beads on my lunch hour. Saturday, the NC loli's had a meetup at the IKEA in Charlotte. I had fun. I finally decided what I would wear. I ended up wearing my Meta Royal Emblem skirt I have tried to sell. I thought I would try it one more time. I tried it with burgundy and brown and cream this time. I thought it turned out ok. I was going for something a bit Classic and comfortable. I sadly did not take any pictures of my outfit. I had not been to the IKEA down here and it has been several years since I have been to the ones around Washington/Baltimore. I went looking for a new cabinet for the dolls and I think I found one. Of course the one I want is out of stock at the moment but that is fine. I will keep an eye out for it. I did get a cute little animal nightlight that is just too funny and a shelf to try in my bedroom. After IKEA we hung out at Amalie's and I had this wonderful dessert with strawberries. I remember it is what I got the last time I went there. On my way home I stopped of at Kirkland's at Concord Mills and picked up 2 jewelry trees they had on sale to use as displays and then finished up the day at AC Moore where I found a couple more cute pendants and a pack of sax blue glass beads. Of course all day long we got funny looks from people. But I think the best remark was from a lady I ran into at AC Moore. She saw me come around the end of the aisle and I heard " Well you look like one of those Marie Osmond dolls." I just smiled at her and she was like "Do you know what a Marie Osmond doll is?" So of course I answered yes I do (I have one that I stole the outfit off for one of my dolls). That was just the strangest compliment.
So today I continued to work on jewelry for AWA. I made a couple of necklaces, 2 bracelets and some earrings. I have 2 crosses that I am working on that I plan to do inspired by Moite. They are blue and gold and the other one is blue and silver. I also have several cameos I am working on plus my bird/nature themed pendants to do. I have more bracelets to work on as well and need to get some ring blanks for the bear rings.
Now to bed.
