Love the cup! I was wondering how you drink out of it but I see now! Very chic!!

Jen said...

Lalalalalove my cup!! The boys were quite impressed too, and not opposed to drinking out of the "pink sparkly" cup once they realized it had DP in it!! Thanks again, it is FAB!!

You did a fabulous job on your cup!!! It looks amazing, we're so proud!! What the H E double L is up with the green straw, girlfriend you must coordinate the straw as well!! The 7-11 usually does the trick, slurpee straws, just cut the end off!! Have a glorious time glittering, glad we could provide some inspiration.
Love, The Tipsy Girls

That cup is delightfully girly. I would have to say it is blingtastic! Love it! As for Hobby Lobby, I can't believe you were a virgin until today. I can't keep myself out of that darn store. I would save myself bundles if I didn't live near two of them. :-)

Cecilia said...

FABULOUS! What about mine??? J/K :)

andrea said...

That cup is unbelievable!!!!

Glittery freaking awesome!

As for dinner....spaghetti, salad, and homemade breadsticks.

Hobby Lobby....yep. I love it. Good thing it's sorta far away so I don't make the trek up there all that often. But Riley is in need of some art supplies for school, so I think I may need to go there instead of our local craft store.... :)

Jamie said...

Lucky girl. I lOOOO-OOVE the cup!!!
Hamburger helper anyone?? Yep that wa the height of my creativity today. I have been to the fantastic Hobby Lobby and I must stay away. My budget can not handle all the ideas rolling around in my brain.

Amy said...

Very nice cup. I like it! LOVE LOVE LOVE Hobby Lobby. It's a BAD store.

goingsome said...

Cute cup. Fabulousoooooooo. Dinner was McDonalds for the kids, since the elementary school was having a fund raising event. We had meatloaf, after the kids went to bed.

Havn't heard of Hobby Lobby. Am I living in a hole? I'll have to look that one up. Love crafts, though craftiness doesn't come easy. Hey, there is allows a first, with good inspiration.

Connie said...

Truly delightful cup!! I can't believe you are just realizing that crafting is right up your alley...you are a natural!!

SuperCoolMom said...

I'm liking BLINGTASTIC or Glitterific! It is AMAZING! I love that you went all out! (I'd be all cheapy about it.)

Dinner tonight was Breakfast Burritos (Bridger's specialty) since I had to rush off to cake class.

Cecily R said...

That is one RAD, FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC cup! There is no way either of my girls could leave that alone for even a few seconds!

And I don't even mind the black and fushia!
