You know how when you are planning your wedding and are in fear of something going wrong ?? Thinking what if the flowers are the wrong color or the cake falls or I faint at the alter...well have I got a story for you! We attended the wedding of one the gals who works in my salon yesterday, It was a beautiful wedding down to all the details, pink, white and black were the colors. I did take some photos I can post later (battery dead on camera) anyway after everyone had eaten and the newly weds were making their rounds to greet everyone at the the tables there was a huge CRASH!!! and I mean HUGE!!! One of the partition walls the Country Club had set up around the room fell down, it landed on the heads of two people sitting at their table one was a gentleman maybe in his 60's and the other was this little old lady who later I heard was 91..this is really not funny, it knocked her unconscious and she landed in the lap of the man sitting next to her. When she came to, she fainted again and someone was trying to hold her head up..in case of a neck injury. The gentleman was knocked to the floor right out of his seat..although I think was not hurt as badly as this fragile woman was. The paramedics came and took them both to the hospital! How sad this was as the happy couple stood there not knowing what to do! Finally the folks at the club got the event going so that people would not just stand there looking at this going on. Now how to get over that happening at your wedding?
Kim's events are always over the top, my first class was with the famous Lisa Kettell, she had us make the cutest little ballerina to go in a frame, I wasn't sure about this one at first but as I put her together I fell in love, isn't she cute? I still have not finished the frame with going to Silver Bella and getting ready for the Holidays...it will get done in time. 
I loved Julie Haymakers class also we put together a foam board frame (what a great idea) and covered it with vintage papers and made a little flower pot with felt and old buttons and such..this was another fun project. Last but not least we made the beautiful cuffs , this class was taught by Ruth Rae, I love her free style, she just seems to throw things together with such flair (of course she does not literally throw things together) I have been wanting to make one of these for a long time now.
I always come away from Kim's events so happy with all of my projects and with the teachers and the new skills that they teach me. It really keeps my mind in creative mode as I want to try to come up with new ideas and creations. Of course you must look at the beautiful decorations that Kim puts up at all of her events.....She is already planning for one in July with Mermaids...OMG I can't wait to see what she comes up with for this one!
This is one of my favorite pics of him at age 10
