"Hairbows for Haiti"

Ok... I was thinking to myself this morning, how can I help the relief effort in Haiti?

My first thought was. Quit my job and fly over there to do what I could? Obviously, that won't work or go over well with either the family or the boss.

Second, OK I'll volunteer at the telethon this evening at the American Red Cross... I called and was turned away.. too many volunteers. And that's a good thing!

Now brings me to my next idea, what can I make and sell to raise money to give to the Red Cross.

Viola~ Hairbows. That's all I know how to do. So, here it is. "Hairbows for Haiti", please support our efforts, we know it's not much but it will help so many in need. A little bit will go a long way.

Details will be posted later this evening.

Love,
Missi

My Little Man...

I'm just a little behind on my layouts.... Here's one of me and Jayce when he was about 12 months. Hopefully, more to come, if time permits. Enjoy!

First Layout Using Close to My Heart Products!

I'm going to attempt to start a blog with my craft and scrapbooking projects. Hopefully, this will keep me motivated to keep doing more. Also, I just starting demonstrating for a stamp/scrapbook company and I think it would be a great place for my customers to go to get ideas and share them with me. Hope you enjoy. Here are some pics of my first layout since joining "Close to my Heart". ~ Melissa
