The Monday Blahs

I woke this morning with the Monday blahs. The weekend came and went to quickly and it was back to the workweek grind. I had a really nice weekend and didn't want it to end. On Sunday I celebrated my Maltese Chico's 4th Birthday. We spent the day at the park and took a trip to Three Dog Bakery, where there were various pastries for pups. So after dinner, we sang Happy Birthday to Chico (yes, we are those type of dog parents), and Chico and Maxwell celebrated with doggie cupcakes and ice cream.

My Little Miracle

For Random Mondays, I wanted to talk about the inspiration for my new collection, the Chloe Collection.

On October 9, 2008, my beautiful little niece Chloe was born; the only problem with her birth is that she was not due until January 18, 2009. She was born 13 inches tall and weighed 1 lb and 10 oz. She stayed in the NICU until December 31, 2008. (Her first diaper was the size of my cell phone battery)

Chloe was a little fighter; the NICU nurses gave her the nickname feisty. Chloe always did what she wanted, she was born when she wanted, the nurse would position her a certain way, she would move, she would be wrapped in her blanket to simulate the womb and she would kick her foot out of the blanket. That’s when I knew she would beat the odds; she was my little survivor.

Chloe is doing great now, laughing, smiling, and talking (baby gibberish, but I’m not sure if she realizes that)

The Chloe collection is made from Swarovski Crystals, crosses, angels, all things that remind me of miracles, innocence and spunk; all that I would use to describe my Chloe; my true miracle.
Here are pictures of Chloe in the NICU, recent pictures of Chloe and the first bracelet from the Chloe collection.

This bracelet is made from pink and white Swarovski Crystals, and sterling silver beads.

There is a sterling silver and Swarovski crystal cross that hangs from the sterling silver toggle.

This bracelet is for sale at my etsy shop at http://www.fabulouschic.etsy.com/

Over the next two weeks I will feature more pieces from the the Chloe collection.
