Ya.. you got it. I ran to Michaels like a lunatic.. (Now why is Home Depot open 24 hours but Michaels isn’t?? HMMMMM??????) Until I found those doll pins, it was 1/2 hour. I had to ask 36 different staff members with blank faces.. dontcha just love that look? The raccoon in headlights look? like they are thinking (I HAVE NEVER EVER HEARD OF WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT AND YOU JUST WOKE ME UP FROM MY NAP). Anyhow, I bough about 600 of them (ok, maybe 150).. Ok if there are any racoons in headlights reading, read my organization contest and comments.. someone spoke about the doll pins). I bought the bases for them too so they can stand up.. OMG.. I LOVE THEM.. I bought short stick pins to pin the tail (not on the donkey).. Oh I bought the CUTEST plate holders.. you know, the stand that opens into a v to sit a plate in it? I decided to invest in one so I can perch my card and take a photo and no more lopsided cards! p.s.. this plate stand is the mini-est, cutest little thing you have ever seen.. so ya, I bought 3. Then I ran to Staples and based on everyone’s recommendation bought a label printer (Brother P Touch). hmph. i am done. I cant believe it. I am not complaining cuz I am SOOOO HAPPY! So if anyone else has any other favorites to share.. please do!! LOVE this post.
I am going back to worky worky
MWAH!

Yay!!! So glad you found the doll pins!!! Now you’ll wanna buy lots more ribbon to fill those jars to capacity! And then more jars…then more pins…then more ribbon. Ugh!! It’s a vicious circle of pure enjoyment!!!
Glad you had so much fun!!!! I love shopping for goodies. So much better than spending money on groceries or the phone bill~LOL!
Glad you found your pins, now what are doll pins and what are you doing with them, lol. Pictures? Thanks and glad you had a good shopping day 🙂 MomD
I love reading your blog. You are such a hoot. Now if I could just remember *not* to have coffeee in my mouth while reading your blog I would stay a bit drier. 🙂
Thanks for *always* making me laugh.

So glad you found the doll pins yesterday. I also saw them at my Michael’s but I did not buy any. On top of having too much ribbon (It wouldn’t fit into 100 jars and then where would I put all those jars???) I want to buy more Bellas. 🙂
You are such a hoot. You bring a smile to my face…I so want a Michaels..
I am at worky worky…lol
Great news about the stands…but we love your cards lopsided or not…and of course the bellas….My daughter and I can’t wait for them to come in.
We are so impatient!!! Like kids waiting on candy..
What in the world are doll pins? Your gonna LOVE your label maker. My husband says I’m addicted to mine. I label EVERYTHING!
