#thePerfectMonday by Pelhuaz Week 15

This week was all about the blog. 

The weekend was a little complicated, as the Girl caught a stomach flu and you know how that goes... Beside that, lots of rain, cold weather, and cuddles. So here are the achievements of the week, because we need to be accountable of our efforts, and accomplishments! Hello Week 15!

1. This week I dedicated time to the blog -as you can see. I wanted to give it an unique look but within the brand spectrum. I think I made it. Last week banner was hideous and I hated it, but I'm liking this golden thingy... Looks clean and modern, at the least that the way I think it feels. What do you think? You like it? Ohh, and I even added a cute signature!

2. New banners for the weekly posts... Yes... Again! If I don't "feel it" I won't leave it alone... And I'm feeling this one! Stay tune, as you will see the awesome new banners on Thursday #handmadeFavorites post. Here's a peak!

3. My handmade community it's very important to me, and I'll do everything I can to support them in return. After reviewing the blogs statistics, I discovered that I'm not doing too bad... Not bad at all. I decided to add them on the blog to share the love with my blog's visitors. Friends like Kiser Krafts, QtsyLife, and Team Neville, among few others are now part  of Pelhuaz Blog as My Crafty Friends. Take a look at our side banner, to discover all our friends and their amazing handmade businesses. 

4. I've being preparing everything for Sunday's event. I tried to staged the table but Tiny wanted to use the Table Cover as a cape. Not a good idea. But I did identified and packed all the inventory that I will take with me to the event.

5. I received a fabulous happy birthday #happymail surprise from my Beautiful Friend Kelly. She put so much love to it, that I still feel it. I loved the purse she made just for me (I have a one of a kind Kiser Kraft Designer Purse), and have been using it since I received it! Her daughter also spoiled me with the most amazing necklace that even have (what I think it's) a USS Enterprise. I'll sure use it on Friday, when I go to the movies to see it!

1. I started making the official documentation for our next School Year and the 5th Grade Binder. Still few weeks to go, but I prefer starting early as my time it's managed by a Tiny Cute Human that most of the time is uncooperative and demanding. 

2. Our color selection for 4th Grade was Green and Yellow, this homeschool year we decided for Rainbow. I'm now in the process of creating templates and forms that I soon will be sharing with you. 

3. The girl started a two weeks Summer Music Camp. She was excited and scared at the same time - you can tell by her face. She wasn't that into it at the beginning, due to the kids weren't following instructions (she's a very organized and methodic girl), and they weren't doing much. But she got the hang to it, and started enjoying her time with new songs and dancing. On Friday they will have a presentation for the parents as the closure of the camp. 

4.Tiny and I went to visit Grandma and Titi, and he was exploring all his surroundings. We might have a Singer or an Electrical Engineer here... 

That's it. I hope your week is awesome, and you have a fabulous time.

#thePerfectMonday Week 6

The perfect weekend brought us a #thePerfectMonday! 

I wish you all had a great weekend and a fabulous Mother's Day. I spend it with who matters the most - My Family. 

I had a very intense week, but I'm happy to announced that the Homeschooling Year ended with great outcomes, and Pelhuaz still rocking!

Here are my achievements for last week:

For Pelhuaz: 

• Sales are still coming... Yay!
• I received a special request from a son that wanted me to send a gift to his Mama address. He lives in the states, and Mama live here in Puerto Rico. I was able to make a pretty package, and a special delivery edition of a #happyMail. It felt so good to be able to be the channel to their love. I hope that Mama had enjoyed the gift, the surprise, and the love that was sent her way.

• We participated of a Tiny Bazaar that wasn't the best experience, but I did made a sale. I took the kids with me, and Oh-Gosh-Oh-Gee Tiny was a Hurricane! From wanting to help to arrange the table, from running all over the place. I'm pretty sure he manage to scare the possible customers, but a Mama needs to do what a Mama needs to do. I learned that if I'm not able to take someone with me to look after the kiddo, I'm better to say "No thank you!" I wasn't able to take even 1 picture. :-D
• I ran a Flash Sale to celebrate the May the 4th. Don't forget that I'm a geek! :-P

• I got inspired, and made few new necklaces

For My Homeschooling Project:

• The homeschooling year 2015-2016 it's officially over. (Can I hear an AMEN?)
• It was our first time with this venture, and I can say that we did pretty good! 
• The Missis was promoted to 5th Grade and her grade average was 91A
• All the reports and binders were completed.
• I tried to educate my kids into the Star Wars Culture, but Tiny got afraid with Kylo in the first scene. Oh well, I'll wait... 
• Vacations here we go!!!!!

Let's sit back, do nothing and enjoy our new #thePerfectMonday.

   

#thePerfectMonday Week 2

You are strong... Don't give up!

How about starting a new week with a great attitude? Let's be grateful for our blessings. 

After the reopening of Pelhuaz Store at Storenvy, I've been a little busy with few others. Who knew? I'm happy and excited!

I wanted to share the good news from last week:

From Pelhuaz:

• I had three new orders! Including some custom orders.

• I was able to design a new bracelets that are now available at the store. 

• I do need to look for a best way to take the photos, as they are not all with the same light. So far, I'm happy with the way the storefront looks. If you have any suggestions, feel free to let me know! 

From My Homeschooling Project:

• Last week was our Spring Break. It was in an off week, but as we are homeschooling, we have the opportunity to decide what suits us better and go for it. We visited few sites, went to grandma's house, and even kidnap Daddy from work. It was a very fun week.

• Now we need to stick to the schedule as we have only 5 weeks left to complete our 180 days of school.  

This week will be a great week and today will be #thePerfectMonday

#thePerfectMonday

How about starting our week in a great mood? Why don't we declare that this will be a #PerfectMonday? 

There is a saying that you attract what you declare. So let's try this, and see what happened. Also you might recall that I decided to reopen my #StorenvyStore and kick-start the blog again. The truth is that the pelhuaz.com adventure didn't gave me time to do the things that I love, and felt obligated to it.

Now, I feel like having fun again... Just the way it should be.

I wanted to share few things with you...

From Pelhuaz:

• After reopening, I made my first sale... YAY! 

• The IG and the Twitter account  where updated. Feel free to visit and follow. I promise it will be fun.

From My Homeschooling Project:

• This week we are having our #SpringBreak. I know it's different from everyone else but it's what suits us. We have a very fun week planned, with field trips and hang outs, that we can't wait...
• March was a fun month where we learned and made activities related to the #NationalCraftsMonth, #WomenHistoryMonth, #MusicInOurSchool #ReadAcrossAmericaDay, #TheIditarod, #PiDay, #StPatty, #Spring, and #GoodFriday. You can imagine how fun it was!

Wishing you all a great week, and don't forget to declare it!
