Side Job?

So back when we had our retreat for work, I made a lanyard, bracelet and earrings. I was so excited to show it off to Ismael. First words out of his mouth "wow, I can make money from that, let me sell it". That was not the comment I was expecting to hear. I wanted to hear 'oh babe good job' but nooooo "let me sell it". Anywho I guess that was also a compliment from him. But he did plant a seed in my brain and I thought about it over and over.

Finally, I decided to invest in the supplies of bracelet making then went on to necklaces to earrings to lanyards. My sister was thrilled of the idea that she became my sales consultan. Everything I have sold has been because of her. Now I am waiting for my husband to do what he said he would if I started this "business".

Anyways just want to share a few of my samples that have been sold.

Any Ideas?

So we have a beautiful living room and a cute kitchen/dining room. But some of the walls are bare and I need some ideas as to what I can put on them with out making the room look crowded. I love simplicity, after two years of crowded space I need simple. I really wanted to show you some before and after pics but somehow they disappeared. So you just have to trust me when I say it is a huge improvement.















I am content as to how my kitchen turned out. Before, there was tons of clutter, and it looked much smaller than now. Its kinda cute.


So here's where i need help what can I put on the wall behind the tv and max's kennel? I dont want anything that might take away the focus of the wall with all of our pics.

Another area is the walls next to the windows. I was thinking two family picture frames one for pics of his family and another with my family. But not sure where to put them. Or maybe some candles....?!?! i dont know. Im kinda a perfectionist where everything has to be placed equally spaced and the space around the windows are not equal. What do you suggest?
