My life in pictures

I haven't had much time to write about my adventures lately due to my hectic holiday schedule, so I present to you a bunch of pictures for you to enjoy. This should explain my happenings and whereabouts for the past month errrr so. Oh yah, And I'm totally not going in order because Blogger is terrible at rearranging pictures.

November: The Girlie Show rocked! It was in early November in Oklahoma City. This was my second year to participate as an artist, and I do hope it'll not be my last. LOVE THE GIRLIE SHOW!

August: At some point in August we participated in a Party like a Pirate street festival in the West End, Dallas. It was a beautiful day for pirates and artists.

December: On our way to San Francisco to participate in Renegade Craft Fair. Dylan looks angry. But he's not. Just tired. This was about 20 hours into our road trip.

The drive was beautiful!

We enjoyed a night in El Paso, TX


Our booth at Renegade Craft Fair!!!!

We got iced/snowed in on our way back to Dallas. It was Christmas Eve and we were stuck in Abilene, TX for the night. We were literally 2 hours away from hearty home cooked meals and family, then this happened.

September: Etsy Dallas celebrated it's 2nd birthday this year. We celebrated with cupcakes and friends and good times.

Maybe September too: I showed my artwork at the Coffee Haus Downtown in Arlington, TX. They have the yummiest vanilla latte I have ever tasted. For reals!

Dylan proposed in November! weeeeeee! We are now working our way through the wedding planning. Fun! I'm so excited to be marrying my best friend and the greatest boy I have ever known.

We went venue hunting right when we got home from our trip to San Francisco. We were so lucky to find this awesome converted water filter building for our wedding. It's going to rock!


November: My friend, Karmacrochet, made me a bad assed knitted scarf that I sewed some of my handmade buttons. I LOVE this.

It's been busy crazy time over here. Now time for a nap. I like to take inspiration from Dylan and Lulu's little cuddle fest on the couch. MY TURN!

Much fun this weekend!

Okay folks, grab your friends and head out to two super fun handmade shopping events. I'll be in two places at once this weekend. So whether you're in Dallas or Oklahoma City, you will not be without some Pamela Michelle.

The Girlie Show - Oklahoma City, OK
The Girlie Show is art, creativity, craftsmanship and funk. Hand-designed … sometimes refined … and all by chicks. It’s not stuffy like an art show or fluffy like a craft show. Think less haute, more hot. Guys, girls, good times. And this year is rockin’ number six.

Hope to see ya there! This year i'll be rock'n it with all my Dallas gals: Cut Out and Collect, Tara to the T, Enju, Texas Tarts, Superchica and Free Lisa. And also a very sweet jewelry designer, Ornamental Things form Austin, TX

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6
8 P.M. TO MIDNIGHT

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 7
NOON TO 5 P.M.

FARMER’S PUBLIC MARKET BUILDING

Bee Things Yard Sale - Dallas, TX
Bee Things is hosting a very artsy yard sale. Come enjoy some early holiday shopping right in the coziness of the Bee Things home. There will be snacks, prizes and some good old fashion hanging out and having fun with friends in the yard. I'll have small but awesome collection of my handmade necklaces for sale, along with Bee Things' hand printed artwork, Paperfingers' art prints and some sweet wood artwork from Noshii . Stop by, Say hi, and stay a while for some good times.
