The worst to me is when I ask a question & they are like, “I do not know, I do not work in this department”. I cannot stand it!! I am like can you find someone that does???? ICK!!!<br /><br />Your creations are so pretty, I love the little toile one with the stroller, how precious is that!!

Definitely worth the extra price (they even gave my kids lollipops). <br /><br />My trick at HomeDepot/Lowes is to pretend that the closest employee to me is assigned to help me. "Show me how to..., Show me where to find..., I'll follow you..." The best one is, "I'll do it myself using the your equipment." That gets them moving pretty darn quick. And always, I follow up with a smile and a thank you. <br /><br />The "Shh" sign is so cute. Definitely, adorable!<br />-KyleenUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12460486262245231098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5288378010551182384.post-72474251450339275502009-05-15T08:35:00.000-05:002009-05-15T08:35:00.000-05:00Love the sweet baby girl sign... so precious!Love the sweet baby girl sign... so precious!SarahJarnaginhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16181609714639957493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5288378010551182384.post-71772322842788507582009-05-15T07:05:00.000-05:002009-05-15T07:05:00.000-05:001.

I can never find anyone to help me and my boys always HATE going and let me know it. When we bought this house last summer we went every.single.day for weeks because we needed something or had to pick out this or that. I got a little burned out and have just begun going back. You'll get it all done eventually. Just enjoy your quiet house for a few more days!Mandi Shandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06199323249251582638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5288378010551182384.post-4106681524449000642009-05-15T00:56:00.000-05:002009-05-15T00:56:00.000-05:00aw thats so cute.aw thats so cute.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02290418448813811641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5288378010551182384.post-4478009930126828942009-05-14T22:34:00.000-05:002009-05-14T22:34:00.000-05:00Oh how funny...well, in a "not funny" kind of way....Oh how funny...well, in a "not funny" kind of way.<br /><br />I do love the flower.
