Tick Tock..."Time" will Tell...

Don't you enjoy when a package arrives in the mail, one you've been waiting for, and anticipating it's arrival? I love to come home from work and find a package that I know will make me smile!  It's certainly better than opening those envelopes I unfortunately recognize from the credit card company!

Well, my first Allen Design purchase arrived! Isn't it adorable?!  Check out Michelle Allen's blog and her shop! http://allendesigns.typepad.com/blog/

She's become a favorite designer of mine! I've been admiring her talents for quite some time AND her endless ambition!  I finally ordered one of her unique clock creations, and I couldn't be more satisfied!  She's a cheery cupcake lady painted in some of my favorite colors; pInk, TuRqUoise, REd, blAcK! She made me smile as soon as I pulled her out of the box.

She's found her perfect place...in my laundry room to cheer me when I head in there to conquer the dirties! 

She also serves as a reminder to keep creatively dreamin' of that charming cupcake shoppe I would love to open! I envision looking at her hanging in a quaint, downtown bakery as I'm preparing delightfully-colorful little cakes!  I dream of not counting the minutes to "get out" of where I am!  She's a cheery reminder that time passes by very quickly,...so, try to find that which you love doing! She looks pretty cute in there, don't ya think?
