Evening Craft - Mini Daisy Wreath and I've Been Tagged!

Hi all! Feeling a little better this evening. I did end up going to the doctor for antibiotics though. When all else fails, see the doctor! :) That's my motto. She did see me and say, "What is it now, Michelle?". Lol! After the doctor's visit I came home and made Jim and I a nice steak dinner with coleslaw and some delicious sweet potato fries, except instead of baking them in the oven or frying them I steamed them. They turned out SO delicious. I didn't take a picture of the meal though. What I did take a picture of was my evening craft! I needed to get a little creativity out for the evening. Very simple, daisy silk flowers, glue gun, ribbon and small plain wreath!

MINI DAISY WREATH






Also, I've been tagged by Heather at Family Forever! Here are the rules:

1. Post a picture of whatever bag you are carrying as of late. No, you cannot go up to your closet and pull out that cute little purse you used back before you had kids. I want to know what you carried today or the last time you left the house. No cheating!

2. I want to know how much it costs =). And this is not to judge. It is for entertainment purposes only. So, spill it. And, if there is a story to go along with how you obtained it, I'd love to hear it.

3. Tag some chicks. And link back to this post so people know why the heck you're showing everyone your bag.

Okay, so here's my purse or should I say bag? I like carrying a bigger bag to work everyday in case I have to throw my lunch in it or something bigger than normal. No, this isn't a Burberry bag. I'm proud to say it is a rip-off. LOL! It cost me $50.00 (I think). My memory is going these days but I know it was around that price.
These are my basic items. You cannot see my phone because I'm using my phone (Blackberry) to take a picture of this mess. ;) Let's see there is my fancy cheetah print wallet, my favorite must have shade of lipstick, a pack of peppermint gum, my iPod, lotion, Zicam, antibiotics, keys, two packs of Emergen-C (that worked well), a little perfume/body spray of Midnight Pomegranite and pink hot chocolate (from two weeks ago when I went to Tea with my friend Tami. I don't know why that's still in there. Ha! I typically have hand sanitizer but I left it at work along with my Kleenex I usually carry as well. Oh well, there you have it!

Now I'm supposed to tag a few chicks to play along. I choose...

1. Anya at Kareltje en ikke!

2. Lisa Michelle at Memoirs of a Wedding Planner

3. AndreaLeigh at My Chihuahua Bites

Okay guys, as usual play if you'd like but have fun with it and be honest girls. ;)

Hi Michelle! Hope this finds you feeling better! Your wreath is a breath of spring...so needed about now! Love the purse tag game! I once won a shower game for having the most obscure items in my purse (had to be there) but I am noted for carrying around anything that anyone could possibly need- which does come in handy every now and then. Have a great evening!

I am glad you are feeling better! Thanks for visiting me. I am glad it made you laugh, but sorry it made you cough. Can't win I guess. Hope you continue to get better and get rid of that cough. Take care!
