I'm bouncing all over the place this week. By Tuesday night, I'll be in Concord, North Carolina again for Donna Downey's Inspired Artist event. While there, I'll be teaching a mini-workshop on Thursday called The Flutterby Flip-Book for which my team has been kitting supplies all week. Around the studio, stacks of Heather Bailey papers are shuffled together with some beautiful solids from Bazzill Basics. And we're surrounded by bowls and tubs of colorful ribbons, flowers, clothespins, rhinestones, butterflies, and brads. Bowls of candy.
Cutest paper project! Can't wait to show you. (We'll post some extra kits to the Heather Bailey Store later this week.) If you're in North Carolina, come see me. Here's where you can sign up for the last couple of seats in the 1pm class. The 12pm class is completely sold out.
late Thursday night as well (at Donna's irresistible urging). We'll
probably be somewhat loopy by 10pm, so I'm expecting more of a giggly,
slumber-party-like setting than anything else. Everyone in the class
is getting two sets of Trash Ties and I'll be spending the hour
teaching how-tos and demonstrating hairstyles. I hear there are a few
more spaces available in the 9pm & 10pm classes. If you're in NC,
sign up! I'd love to meet you. Here's the workshop schedule
where you can get your tickets. Scroll down to the time-slot you're
interested in (both are on 5/7), then click the blue & orange 'buy'
button to read more about the class.
On Wednesday, before the workshops, I'll be at the Free Spirit
headquarters in Charlotte, discussing fabric, hush puppies, high school (Jeff, the Sales Manager went to the same
high school as I – small world), whatever comes up. It's mostly a
social visit. Always fun.
while we preview our classes to each other and the entire volunteer
staff. There should be some fun dinners in there too, I think.
Come Saturday night, I expect to flop into bed like an eggy crepe.
Perhaps
my kids will pour some syrup on top on Sunday morning — a smoochy
reunion. Isaac's always good at heading up some sort of kid-made
breakfast-in-bed for Mother's Day as well. I dream of fuzzy slippers and
chocolate.
I don’t know much about scrap-booking, but I know it all looks delicious. Have a fab time.
It all just looks so edible and delicious!! Yum 🙂
Love all the delicious looking scrap supplies.
Sounds like you guys will have a blast. Enjoy!
Wow, I’m tired just reading this! Love all the shapes and colors displayed.

Hi Heather,
I usually just lurk around your blog because you always have sooo many comments, but today I’m feeling friendly. I recently bought your pop garden sampler and am loving the fabrics alot! I always feel so cheerful and happy when I see any of your fabrics/designs/etc… and just wanted you to know.
I heard that you live in Gilbert. (is this true?) I grew up there and only moved to Mesa after I got married to a Mesa boy (almost 17 yrs ago) my parents still live there though.
Have a great time this weekend!
Take care,
🙂 Missy
What a fun life!!! 🙂
Those bowls of treats look so scrumptious! You sure know how to throw a fun time! Your schedule sounds hectic as can be. Have a ball!

Oh I wish I could be there …everything looks so colorful and fun. Sounds like a fun agenda but the syrup on Sunday morning sounds more fun 🙂 Love those days.
Janet
Oh, these colors are so lush and vibrant– love, love, love!
Hey Heather, thanks for commenting on my blog! I love the design of yours! What a cute post! K bye 🙂
I love those colorful crafts displayed! I think I can also use them for designing my handmade hair accessories. I also love making scrapbook and paper crafts. It is an artful way of compiling my photos and other collectibles.
