Happy Friday! The days have all been running together for me but it's nice to say "Happy Friday"! :)
I had an interesting day yesterday - visiting the Customs and Border Control office here in Columbus. Our Epoxy buttons come from overseas and they've had some issues with the manufacturing process. In order to get them here without any further delays, I had them shipped via air direct to Ohio. Well, they ended up on a commercial flight and then to an unknown warehouse. I had to spend the morning at the Customs office waiting for the paperwork to get processed and prove that the product was indeed "Chipboard Epoxy Buttons". Have you ever tried to explain to an older gentleman what chipboard is, how it's used, how it's diecut, what epoxy is, what it's purpose is, what you'll do with the so-called-buttons and how they're not for clothing but for papercrafts. Oh, and when Jillibean Soup shows up on something from overseas - it confuses everyone! Buttons and Soup just don't go together! ;) What an exciting life we lead here (a bit of sarcasm there)!
I have a few things to share with you today. We had a giveaway a couple Fridays ago and we never announced a winner! Thank you to all of you for being our Facebook friend! I love that everyone shares projects over there - even more Jillibean inspiration!

The Customs experience is too funny!! Although, I can only imagine how frustrating that must have been. OY! :/
