Mary's Berries - A Kitschy Collection

I've been collecting these awful figurines from the 70's for years now.  Every time I find one at a thrift shop I grab it up as quick as I can.  Etsy was looking for some Etsian collection videos so I decided to make one up real quick.  I've been meaning to show these guys off ever since Michelle gave me the "Things Go Better With Sex Guy" - the figurine that started the obsession.

Hey! Rock n' roll, The Storque just posted an article on my ugly Berries collection. Woo wee. Way to share the freakiness! Oh, and apparently I've been calling them by a backwards name all this time - it's R.W. Berries! That's me, the queen of dyslexia for you. :)

This is Me

After being sick all last week I seem to have lost my momentum. Blech.  That stuff takes a lot of energy to work up so it sucks to back at the bottom of the hill again.  But I am determined to get back on the productive trolley ASAP.  I have all kinds of cool things going on behind the scenes that I am just itching to announce once they are concrete.  For now, I've been focusing on listing some new items that are long overdue to hit the Scribble Nation Shop. This includes a bevvy of new Boot-onnières, including Michelle's awesome Button Boot-onnières, a slew of new Kitschy Kitchen Magnets, and a couple of adorable clutch handbags. (One of which sold already!). I'm also getting some more Upcycled Envelopes ready so they should be up pretty soon. 

LOL

This is where I was all last week - but cuter.

Prom Pixie

Sniff sniff. There she is, the littlest McSibling trotting down the dock in her Senior Prom dress. She'll be graduating High School at the end of the month.

It feels like only yesterday, and not almost ten years ago that I went to my prom. Though, in truth it wasn't MY prom, but a childhood friend's. Either way it was a prom, and the only one I got so I'll try to keep it alive in my brain for the sake of sentimental checklists. Prom, check.

While my date was a love lorn friend, Caity's was her high school sweetheart and boyfriend of two years, James.  Though I am yet to meet James in person, he seems to be a very nice guy. Sweet, funny, and madly in love with my little sis.  They make an adorable pair. :)

Here's the money shot!! The classic side by side prom pic. I wish I had one of these, but alas, I've only got a handful of snapshots. I wonder if I can dig them up? Might be time for a scan.

Ohhhh yeah. I just found my prom's side by side. I've got to warn you people, it's a whole lot less virtuous. :P Yes, that's stogey in my hand. And yes, I am practically tiny next to my date despite the fact that I was wearing 4 inch platform shoes. Oh well.  His name, by the way, is Steve Celentano, and was very good friend of mine while I was growing up. I haven't seen him in a verrrrry long time, but last time I did he seemed quite happy. Here's hoping he still is.
