Raise your hand if you're ready for Spring!

If you guys are like me, you're well beyond ready to see the arrival of glorious Springtime! ;) To me, spring has always marked the beginning of gardening, getting the house spic & span, and embarking upon new fitness regimens. Usually, however, the fitness regimens don't last; but, this year I am bound and determined that they WILL last. I decided several months back that 2012 would be a year of changes, positive changes, in the Southerner household, so I'm committed to making things stick!

I must say, though, that aside from being excited about Spring coming, I'm thrilled to see that the Freebie Giveaway is going quite well! If you haven't already, be sure you go to the Fb page & 'LIKE' the most recent status update to enter the contest. Also, be on the lookout for some new merchandise going up on the site a little later in the week, too. There are lots of new things in the making in the Southerner's labyrinth, I tell you! ;)

'Til tomorrow...

All the goings on...

Whoa. Sorry for the lack of posting this week, folks. It's been, yet another, crazy week at the Southerner household, though. Mr. Southerner's new job is wonderful & a HUGE blessing, but it's a big adjustment! Whew!

But, in other news, gues what I've been daydreaming about all week long? SPRINGTIME! And of course, Easter! ;) Two of my personal favorites! So, of course that's sprung a Easter craft brain storming session. I've come up with several ideas for some accesories, tote bags, and home decor. I'm excited, I can't wait to get some samples made to share with y'all! :)

Anyway, I've also decided that I am going to open up the blog to sharing other things besides just my crafts. I'm going to add health & beauty tips and tricks, household tips, decorating tips and ideas, recipes, fashion, and basically anything that I think is of interest and worth passing along. I want the blog to be fun, entertaining, and informational, so I think branching out will help it along, don't you? ;)

Alright, gang, I am off to delve into some laundry and bathing the multitude of dogs...enjoy your weekend, lovebugs!

New Goodies!

Hello lovebugs! Did everyone have a happy V-Day yesterday? :) Hope so! Mine was lovely...spent with family, which was nice. Much better than last year when Mr. Southerner had brought home the tummy virus & we spent the holiday sick as dogs...lol

Anyway, there's a bunch of new merchandise to check out on the Facebook page! Yay! I hope you're all as excited as I am! And don't worry, there's lots more to come, too. I just have to get everything pressed and photographed! ;)

'Til tomorrow! XoXo!

Long time, no blog :(

Happy Monday & Valentine's Day Eve, loves! Sorry it's been so long since a new post!

It's been a hectic week last week in the Southerners' household. Mr. Southerner (aka: Adam), just started his new job this morning, so Mrs. Southerner (aka: ME! ;P ) has been a busy little bee wrangling up things such as new work clothes for him. AGH! It's enough to make lesser women throw up their hands & run away screaming in frustration! At least that's what I believe...lol (I am being a bit dramatic on that belief, though, I imagine...) It's crazy, though, he's working in an auto plant, so, they have some fairly strict clothing guidelines. I guess that's good, maybe, because they just can't be selling scratched up vehicles. ;)

So, as you can imagine, I am just ITCHING to get back to crafting this week! I left no less than four projects just kind of hanging in the balance when we found out he was making the swap this week. Once those are finished, I cannot WAIT to get to work on my spring and summer projects! Those are my favorites! :)

Be on the lookout not only for new products, but, a Monthly Freebie drawing to be posting this week!

XoXo!

Finally!

lol, And no, I am not about to shout "The Rock has returned to ________". ;)  Anyway, enough of my silly WWE fangirl nonsense! Time to get serious!

I officially have items up & listed for SALE on The Vintage Southerner Facebook page! YAY!!!! :) For now, that is the only site where items are available for purchase. Eventually, I will be opening a page on either Big Cartel or Etsy, but that's a wee bit on down the road.

But, for now, hop on over to the TVS Facebook and enjoy the goods! More to follow VERY soon, gals! Enjoy!

Happy Monday, loves! XoXo

Hey y'all! Hope everyone is having a good humpday! I don't know about y'all, but, I've always been fond of Wednesdays; the week's almost over & the weekend is in sight, there's good tv shows on, & it's our usual "date night". :) Also, this particular Wednesday has brought us the month of February...yay!

Before I head back to working on pin cushions and aprons, I wanted to share a page with you guys. I'd like to introduce you to my fellow crafter & lovely sister-in-law, Holly, who creates blankets and bows. She makes some beautiful goodies, y'all, so please be sure to check her out on Facebook! :)

'Til tomorrow... XoXo
