Just a quick moment to address some blog business:
::: Button, Button… who’s got a good button? I’m looking for someone to design a logo and button for my blog. I figure that many of you have done this or know someone who designs them… any references for a great button/logo person? You can either leave a comment or email me {makinglemonadeblog at gmail dot com}. If you have links to their website (or yours, if you have examples) I’d appreciate it. Thanks so much!
::: Halloween Spooktacular: ugh, yes, it’s that time of year again. I’m glad so many of you love the fall, but I’m a summer girl. I’m trying to cheer myself up by planning a Halloween SPOOKtacular for the end of September/ beginning of October. If you have an Etsy shop and are interested in coming up with a Halloween/ autumn related prize for a multi-shop giveaway, let me know! {and just so you know, I’ve already lined up two REALLY CUTE shops to give a prize! Wait till you see the onesies from cottoncupcakeshoppe!}
::: I’m also on the hunt for photos and instructions for homemade Halloween costumes, so I’d love to know if you’ve done this in the past.
Okay, that’s it! That was a pretty painless meeting, right? Now on to bigger things, like watching Noodle stagger around the kitchen with her latest toy, Large Plastic Spoon! She likes to use it to hit her other new favorite toy, Pizza Box!
Check out my two posts on knocking off a Pottery Barn Kids Halloween costume! You might get some ideas for your own knock-off!

Just stopping by from SITS! FABULOUS blog idea! I make my own costumes, for both myself and my diva doggy…Sad, I know but I’m not a real mommy yet 🙂

I just had a button designed for a weekly feature I do on my blog and I was very happy with the designer; adorable portfolio and very easy to work with. You can check out her site ‘Once Upon A Blog Design Shoppe’ at this link:

My daughter is loving the plastic spoon right now, too!
I would LOVE to submit a Halloween-related item for a giveaway! The item isn’t in my Etsy store yet (this weekend, hopefully!), but I do small pumpkin felt hairclips. Let me know if you think you’d be interested!
