#thePerfectMonday by Pelhuaz Week 16

This week was all about prepin for yesterday's event. 





The Girl is feeling so much better from the stomach flu, but now was Tiny's turn. He just got a little fever and running nose, so it wasn't that complicated. We participate of an event and we had lot's of fun. 

So here are the achievements of the week, because we need to be accountable of our efforts, and accomplishments! Hello Week 16!


1. I need to let you know about this big achievement, as we were part of a local event at Aguas Buenas, a town near my house. The event was fabulous. Lot's of foot traffic and people stopping by. I made tons of sales, and Pelhuaz Fun Bags were part of them. I'll be asking soon for more biz cards from my Crafty Friends. 

The trick was to bring just affordable items (3 x $5, $5 & $10) easy to sell and move. That was the best idea, ever. The setting looked nice, and the location was perfect. Pelhuaz was the first table, and everyone had to passed in front of my table to get in or out the Festival. I really enjoyed my Sunday!




2. I made all the decoration. The banner, the flowers, the windsocks, the garland, the art print, and the Kiosk Type continuous presentation - that was running in the Surface. Not sure if you can notice it, but there's my "I make pretty things" image, and it really did the trick. If you are interested in a copy (.pdf) send me an email, and I'll be glad to send it over. 
  

3. I have a partner in crime that is always there for me. She's a good friend that makes so many beautiful things for the Little Princesses. Marie, is the owner of Little Things by Marie, and I'm in love with her creations. To take a look the pretties that she offers, visit her Facebook Page or IG.

  




1. I'm still working with the documents for our homeschooling 2016-2017 year. I looked for calendars and schedulers and came up with a cute design.



2. Don't forget that this year color theme is Rainbow! 


3. The Camp Closing Event was fabulous and the girl loved performing with her flute. You can tell by that face that she was so happy. They gave her a certificate, that she felt very proud of receiving.






3. Also Tiny had his camera moments... (yes, he's wearing Daddy's shoes)



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

I can't blame her for being obsessed, because they do have amazing decal that meets everyone needs. My very own favorite from their store is this Be Your Own Warrior decal. Also, Decal Drama is part of Pelhuaz Fun Bags that goes out with every Pelhuaz' new order.

This week, Beth posted Wilde Feature: Jessi of Sunshine Hideaway featuring Jessi of Sunshine Hideaway. I'm very interested in her items, specially the Tarot reading. She also have pendants. I liked the Caged Stone Pendant style.  









In order to be an effective Small Business Owner you need to be organized. My exquisite friend Cristie helps us with that. She recently opened I'm Late - a Planner Accessories Store, that have so many beautiful things. From charms, stickers to bookmarks and gifts ideas, she have them all. Her blog, I'm Late Planner Girl offers ideas of how to be, and stay organized.

#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.
