| Hi Everyone,
Here it is, our September Hip Kit & Add-On Kit(s) sneak peek. It will begin shipping out early next week. I apologize for the delay. We closed our Snoqualmie storefront on September 10th - which was a huge undertaking. I also had to get ready to send our oldest daughter off to college. Tons of details to attend to as she prepared to begin her life in the dorms. :) This week I feel like I have finally caught up!!! Boy, does it feel great!
Our September Hip Kit and all of the Add-On Kits are fabulous!!! The rich colors celebrate the coming of fall, and family time as well as back to school and more. I think you are going to love what I have put together for you.
For those of you who want add a little extra theme to your kit, we have a special purchase available this month! You can purchase this special "Back to School" collection to go along with your Main Hip Kit for only $7.00. It would be a great addition to our September Embellishment Add-On Kit - make a little "School Days" mini album with your back to school photos, or use them for your Teacher Appreciation Day Projects. They are a great staple to have on-hand. |

| Here is another collection of projects created by Melanie using the products included in our August 2011 Hip Kit & Add-On Kit(s). I love how she used the burlap on her “Happy Birthday” card. It adds such great texture to her project. Beautiful work Melanie!!! If you aren't a Hip Kit Club Member and would like to find out more details and sign up CLICK HERE |

| Here are a fabulous collection of projects created by Melanie Jarocki using the products included in our August Hip Kit & Add-On Kit(s). I love how she gave dimension to her “Tidepool” layout by handcutting pieces of the sun and popping them up to add interest and texture to her page. Great job Melanie!!!

| I know that it seems like I have been missing in action. :) ha ha. After closing our retail storefront two weeks ago - I have been busy trying to get Megan ready to go off to college. It has been a great couple of weeks. Megan and I have spent a lot of quality time together - picking up stuff for her dorm, hanging out at home or whatever else happened to be on the agenda for that day. :)
Today was a huge day. Megan went off to college. We started out the morning getting things packed up and running a few last minute errands. We grabbed lunch and headed off to the University of Washington to move her into her dorm.
We got the car unpacked, and got everything loaded into her room. She met her roommate - a wonderful girl from England - and they clicked right from the start. The three of us spent the afternoon making beds, hanging pictures and decorating their room. I was so glad to be able to have this time with Megan. These hours were so precious to me and I know they meant a lot to her.
After a lot of hard work - the three of us went out to dinner at U Village. It was the perfect ending to a perfect day. Afterwards, I drove them back to their dorm and dropped them off. I gave Meggy a big hug, told her that I loved her, and reminded her to be safe. She walked into her dorm - and is so ready to start this exciting new chapter in her life. She is such a great girl and I am so very proud of her - she is going to love her college experience.
As much as I am excited for her - I am going to miss seeing her everyday. When they are little you can't imagine them going off to college - but it arrives faster that you would think. They do grow up too quickly. As much as she is ready to go, I am not quite ready to let go. I love you Meggy!!! |
