but sometimes that is better.
  It is FRIDAY MAY 14th 11am to 6ish
(aren't you excited- I am)


If you can, bring your stuff before - or in the morning. . Grab three things - or a few more. - It doesn't need to be overwhelming. If you only have time to get it in a bag - I am happy to price it for you.

Sorry for not too much notice, I guess a next week is busy for lots of people with school so soon being out.............. A few of you wrote last time about not being able to participate - no worries. But some were out of town - so the short of it grab whatever clothing - you your kids, your hubby, your friend, your sister, that you aren't wearing - too big, too small, forgot to return, just doesn't fit right........... anyway stick a sticker on it, with the size, PRICE you set, and your name. Include on envelope if you don't want to put an envelope on them all. Once your item is purchased I will collect your money and
return it to you a few days after the sale. Tell your friends - the more the better. 
REMEMBER you can just come and shop you DO NOT have to have clothes to SELL.
Or you can just sell and not shop!

Just stop by and visit- I promise to have something yummy..... a treat, I would love to visit. I had a lot of fun last year. I already have recieved great things - especially kids stuff.Call me with questions.

2nd Annual Clothing Swap - Please Come

The 2nd Annual Clothing Swap
Ahhh….. Spring!!! Time for a little spring cleaning. Time to clean out our closets. You know, put away the winter clothes and get out those t-shirts and capri’s…………. Now that I say this it will snow tomorrow right? Still I think spring fever has hit.

So, I wanted to invite you to participate in a different kind of “party”. Due to the current economic situation, I think we are all feeling our budgets get a little tighter……….. I thought it would be fun to host
A Clothing SWAP. A way to get "gently used" clothes for a bargain and make a little cash! This is how it works:
  • Gather up all clothes and accessories that you haven’t worn in a year, or even clothes you are just tired of and would like to make a little money on. Just make sure they are clean, no stains, and preferably wrinkle-free (they will sell better this way).
  • Attach an envelope, card, or sticker with your name and print the price you are wanting to sell the item for. Attach the envelope to the item of clothing. Once your item is "purchased", the money will be placed in the envelope and returned to you.
  • Simply drop items off between NOW April 29th. 957 East 1900 North in Lehi. The sale will be FRIDAY, MAY 14th, 11 AM to 6 ish  
Wanted Clothing in all sizes! Gently used and in good condition.
Spring and Summer and Winter Clothing .
Accessories: Shoes, Purses, Hats,  and Jewelry.

Questions – Comments e-mail or call 801-768-2489.

Clothing SWAP - Q & A

I am so excited for The Clothing SWAP Party............ Are you?

Thanks for wanting to participate - here are some of the questions I have recieved.
Frequently Asked Questions - ANSWERED.

Sizes? Yes, I want ALL sizes. X-Large, Tall, extra tall, medium, small, extra small, petite. This is a clothing exchange for ALL of us!

Can we bring children's clothing? YES. This was a big debate for me, only because I was uncertain how I would be able to display everything in my house. I also wanted to make sure we were wanting to sell items in very good quality. The same applies for women's, and men's clothing, each item must be "gently used" clean and wrinkle free.

What needs to be on my envelope, card, or sticker? The importance of the envelope is so I can properly identify your clothing. The envelope is basically your price tag. The envelope must include:

Your Name / Phone Number

Clothing Size

Clothing PRICE

Once your item is purchased I will double check the cash and seal your envelope and file it away under your name. Then when the sale is you will collect all the envelopes with your names.

I have no clothes to sell, but I  want to come to the sale?

No problem. All are invited, whether you have anything to sell, or just want to shop and not sell a thing.

Erg, ahh, yawn, ....., it's Monday

Oh my goodness, not sure what the deal is but it is Monday morning, and I cannot- or seem to be "choosing" not to be able to drum roll please...................
get my act together
get motivated
get dressed, showered etc
get happy
get focused
get cleaning (because life is better around here when it's clean)
get going

So how do you do it?  I am all for having a break once in a while- yada dada..........  but one does need to face the inevitable - so all joking aside.  Tell me please how you amazing Mom, friends, women, pick yourself up and get going...........?  I have spent the last 20 minutes blog hopping.  Hopping from site to site I am thinking, seriously how did she cook that, build that, throw that (party), make that, grow that, sew that, organize that, work out like that?  Am I the only one that feels this way?  I am lucky if I type on my blog every three months, let alone share my creations (I think I have one - somewhere) or take a picture of it (I really just figured how to get the pictures off my camera - I think it is called download). Sorry about this ramble.  Anyway back to my real problem. 
It is going to be 75 degrees and I have flowers to plant today!  I am setting that up as my reward.  My goal is to be outside (anyone else low in  vitamin D) by 11 am- it is 9:40 now.  How is that for serious motivation!  I hope your Monday is off to a better start than mine, but if not, curl up with a good book, or get thru your DVR list and enjoy it.
