Frustration...



Okay, so I need everyone's opinion, please! I made this handmade this dress, put it on KSL and it's NOT SELLING! TONS of people are looking at it, but I haven't gotten even one call! It's made of cotton/poly for easy cleaning, but not as wrinkly, had a zipper in back, fully lined, with cute satin flower trim. Everyone I know that's seen it just thinks it's awesome and so cute, so the only thing I can come up with is the price is too high. So tell me how much you would buy this dress for. Now, don't be too generous, that won't help if everyone says "a million dollars!" because I need your honest opinion. Please please please let me know what you think. Thanks

Enrichment Night

So.... I'm freaking out a little. I'm being divided between two callings right now, Mia Maids and Enrichment, and since they are both pretty new callings, everyone's trying to get the "new girl" to share her talents with everyone! Didn't realize I had talents until now! So, last week I taught my mia maids all about hair and how to french braid and just a basic formal updo for when they start dating. No big deal, except I was given two days notice to plan! Also, I was informed I was volunteered to teach the Mia Maids how to sew pajama pants with two days notice, but luckily that activity was moved so I have a month to prep. And tomorrow I'm teaching enrichment night! Yeah, just me! At first it started as teaching a craft/skill at a Super Saturday-no big deal, I've done that before. Just provide the materials and give basic instructions. Then, when they decided to go more "spiritual" with that Saturday activity, rather then cancelling my class like everyone else, she said will you just teach it for an enrichment night? ALL BY MYSELF? Freak! Not being able to say no, I asked exactly what she wanted me to teach. She's been my visiting teacher, so I thought she might say "how to build a frame" or maybe "photography" but no, she wants me to teach how to REFINISH FURNITURE! Seriously? I know hardly anything, but now I have to teach a 90 minute class about it! So, for any of you out there who have taught enrichment night before, just tell me the time goes by so fast and it will be great :) Sorry for the ultra long blog. You know me, I tell long stories with more then enough details :)
