Would you?

So it's no secret that I'm trying to make some extra cash for my wedding, and I'm having a sale Memorial Day to assist with that goal :) I have been toying with the idea of teaching a class though. So here is a question for you. Would you take a class to learn how to make jewelry if all of the supplies were included? What would you pay for the class? Would you be interested in learning how to make any of these items?

The idea is that even though the techniques are the same the pieces would all be unique. I'm not into making cookie cutter jewelry and I wouldn't want to teach that way.

So what do you think? Would you be interested? Or would you rather just buy your jewelry in a store?

Wino Wednesday: Scarlet Five

Welcome back to Wino Wednesday with Aubrey from High-Heeled Love and Myself!

Three Simple Rules:

1) Take the Button

2) Write a Wine-related Post

3) Link-up!

Today I'm going to do a review of sorts of my new favorite wine :)

From the CK Mondavi Website:

Scarlet Five is our winemaker’s signature cuvee, an expression of five red varieties capturing the best of each vintage. It has the backbone of Cabernet Sauvignon, the finesse of Merlot, the structure of Petit Verdot, the floral essence of Cabernet Franc and the boldness of Malbec. This full-bodied wine offers flavors of black cherries and plums and ends in a soft, balanced finish.

Our family winery, established in 1943, has been committed to creating fine wines for four generations. We harvest grapes at their peak of ripeness from prime California vineyards, creating wines with fully developed flavors.

Appellation: California

Varietals: 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot, 13% Petit Verdot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 1% Malbec

From Yours Truly:

This is honestly the best wine I've had in recent memory. When I was in Georgia last weekend I found it for an excellent price and I bought 6 bottles. It's dry, but it has so much flavor and is does have a smooth finish so the "dry" isn't as abrasive as it can be in other wines. Even my sister Megan, who doesn't like red wine, liked this one. I found it at Jax's for $8.79 for a 1.5L bottle. I spotted it in a Publix last night for $9.99 for the 1.5L bottle. So it's a good buy, and it's delicious. 

Seriously, try it. Let me know what you think of it!

Happy Wino Wednesday! Link-up Below!

Where I am today

I didn't mean to lie, but it happened. I promised a blog sale today with my Natural Stone Collection and I got so busy with other things last night that it didn't happen. Next week. I promise!

I miss my dad. I feel like I need to write it out, but I don't really know where to start. Planning this wedding and knowing he won't be there is so hard. I was desperate to hold onto his house for the longest time but I finally admitted to myself and to everyone else last week that it's simply not in the cards for Jason and I to take it on. So now we're planning cleaning weekends and estate sales and in the same day we're talking about bridal showers and bachelorette parties. It's just hard. 

Jason and I have our first pre-marital counseling session tonight and we're excited about it. (Does that make us geeks?)

Don't forget to swing by tomorrow and link-up for Wino Wednesday!!!
