Little Fixes: Advance copy in my hands!!
Last week I got a pretty little package in the mail with my name on the front! Yay!! It feels so cool to hold a real copy of MY BOOK in my hands. Weird, but cool! And I got to bring it to church on Wednesday and show all the moms whose kids were in it. It's hard to believe that I've waited over a year for that moment and it's already come! Quickest year ever.
It's funny, when I first got it, I didn't really even want to look at it. Is that weird? Do you do that with things you've made? It's hard not to see the flaws of our own work. Like: "WHY did I use orange instead of pink?!" or "These colors don't look nearly as bright as I wanted..." and silly stuff like that. But the more I flip through it, the more I like it. So that's good. :O)
Yeesh, I hope you guys like it!! I'm so scared out of my wits for when it comes out! Someone tell me to just have an espresso and relax. ;o)
Anyway, like I've said before and will probably say a million more times because I'm under contract ;) it's available to purchase on July 1st! But you can preorder it now on Amazon, so you should do that! If you want to. :O)

wow, looks SO awesome Disney!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteThis is so awesome. I love to see someone living and doing not just wishing. You are an inspiration. Hang in there and know you are worth it.
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
DeleteWell done, Disney! I look forward to reading your book. Hey...you are blonde now! Did you feel like a change? Now have an espresso and relax! :-)
ReplyDeleteHaha yes, blonde! My pink just faded out so I'm doing the blonde thing for a while. I like it!
DeleteGreat job Disney! I can't wait to see the whole book. I already told some friends and family members about it who are into crafts. I'm sure this book will be a hit. Especially now, when people are on a tight budget because of the economy. Time to go back to the values of old and instead of throwing things away, either repair them or repurpose them. You did a great job of showing what can be done to extend the life of clothes. Thumbs up (y)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Siggy!! You always encourage me :)
DeleteYou look GORGEOUS blonde Disney! Love it! Especially with the dark eye makeup - gorgeous! and the book looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I'm so happy for you to finally be here~
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteRelax and have an espresso? Does that work? Anywho, relax, ya silly thing, the book looks incredible and is going to be soooo loved. Congratulations on the copy in your hands!
ReplyDeleteDisney, I am so excited for you. As soon as I can, I will order it. Wouldn't a cup of hot tea be better than an ESPRESSO? If you need to relax, that is. I love seeing pictures of Paige, who is one of the most beautiful children I have ever seen. Congratulations! You have worked hard! Now, just relax and take it easy with all those little ones. :0) Pam, from Muncie, IN
