Hmm, about me?
My name is Kelli. I live in the great Southern Bluegrass State of Kentucky. I am NOT a UK or U of L fan. *I heard that*
I am a *insert age here* mom of 3 wonderful children. They are the light of my life and bring me so much laughter and joy.
I have 2 beautiful teen daughters who keep my ears burning with gossip and music (gosh how things have changed since Frampton, Floyde and Stevie) and my gas tank on empty from running them to Orchestra, The Summit, Tahoe and the Marina. They leave dust bunnies in my wallet from *gimmie* money and trips to the mall. My 15 year old is a Sophomore in High School, lord help me she is 15 going on 30 (or so SHE thinks). They are so much fun and keep me looking young.
These were taken the last time we were down to see my folks. Aren't they just so sweet? They had SO much fun!
They are growing up SO fast :(
These Flamingos were so vibrant, beautiful and cheerful.
I also have an son who just turned 4 in December. He is a rambunctious little tot. He is just a blessing from above. If you can over look his temper tantrums, his ability to break the sound barrier with his girly, shrill, & funny, screams (yes, HE thinks he is hilarious), his overwhelming desire to sleep in mommy and daddy's bed and the ability to throw an object quicker than the speed of light, he will melt your heart a gazillion times a day.
He loves to help cook, tidy the house, play with his Spiderman and Dinosaurs and run, oh this boy can run. Run, forest run....
All joking aside I am so in love with my children, they are everything I ever dreamed about and more. My daughters are perfect in every way imaginable and I am sure they will do great things one day.
My son was born with a CHD known as
Ebstein’s Anomaly and is one tough little cookie. He is full of energy, love and happiness.
We have a long journey ahead of us.
I couldn't image my life without him or my girls.
I am married to the love of my life who spoils me and the kidlets rotten. I couldn't have asked for a better husband. At almost 40 (whoops almost gave it away) my life is "almost" perfect.
We have 3 furbabies who also hold a special place in our family and our hearts.
Below is Abigail Conchetta aka "Abby" our Spoiled rotten, almost human, Chihuahua, who rules our roost. Don't let her size and cute looks fool you; she is the QUEEN of her domain!
This little cutie patootie is our newest family member. Her name is Co Co Bella and she is a tiny Yorkie at 2 lbs. 2 ounces and she is such a sweetheart.
Here she is at 4 months and 2lbs. 8 ounces after her first puppy cut. We sure do love all of her BEEZ BOWS! I have to admit though she HATED her groomer and her hair cut, so we will NOT be going back for a long while! It's back to the kitchen sink for us!
She had a bad accident the first of the year and we almost lost her. It was a very tramatic ordeal for all of us and she is even more spoiled now than she was before. She is part feline and truely has 9 lives and used them all up in one day..
I am so grateful she pulled through and is still with us.
Here is the latest member of our growing family. We adopted him on Christmas from a Pure Bred rescure in Cali. His name is Mister Kitty, he is a Seal Tipped Ragdoll and he is the King of his castle..
Besides being a mother and wife, which is something I wanted for as long as I can remember. You know, the family, the house and white picket fence, the things little girls dreams are made of...
I enjoy many, many things. I enjoy long walks with my family, quiet evenings at home, scrap booking, curling up with a good book, baking, gardening, NHRA, only team FORCE of course, getting pampered, music, Art, visting with my folks (though I don't get down to visit them nearly often enough), and shopping, oh how I love to shop! Sometimes I spend to much *insert halo here*.
I mean seriously who can pass up a good sale?
But other times, I can shop for hours on end and don't have to buy a thing! I love to poke through old antique shops searching for that hidden treasure that someone haphazardly tossed away, not realising that it will be the find of a life time for someone else and will be cherished forever.
I love keepsakes and passing them on to my children. One of my favorite sellers here on ebay is Cherished*VintageShe has an amazing talent and kindness that goes well beyond the surface. I was lucky enough to purchase 3 of the most darling Vintage Chenille Bunnies for my children from her early this year and we all just fell in love.
Be sure to check out her stunning Vintage Christmas itmes and wonderful OOAK quilts!
Remember, it is the little things that memories are made of.
Now for the little details;
On my auction listing page, and in my Pickled Parlor Store you will find an abundance of Templates, Auction add ons and Graphics. I hope you find something that sparks your interest. Some may not be to your liking and some you may find to be an exact match for all of your eBay needs.
MOST font styles, sizes and colors can be changed to suit your needs.* Some may require a small addtional charge.
Just let me know if you need anything changed when you submit your payment.
Please do not be
"one of those customers"
who wants everything changed after the transaction has been completed. It is VERY time consuming to make changes after the fact. Small changes are fine, just please be respectful in your requests and treat me how YOU would want to be treated as a seller.
If you wait until 3 weeks after I ship your item to have an epiphany and decide you want everything changed, chances are, depending on my mood, I am liable to ask you to go take a hike.
Seriously //(*_*)|| Don't make me blink you!
If I make an error I will gladly fix it at any time!
For a small additional charge I can change many of my background colors to suit your needs. Just shoot me an email for a quote and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
I can also make ALL of the templates that you see into matching About Me pages, Storefronts, Store Banners, Store Logos, Invoice Logos, Hang tags, Rebirth Certificates, Invitations, Blog Layouts, Websites and Thank You Cards. If you are interested in a custom order to match the item you are selling, just let me know and I will work with you until we find a good match.
PLEASE feel free to contact me
with your questions!
If you need any help or have any questions regarding my templates or graphics please contact me and I will be happy to assist you. minkydot@aol.com or www.pickledparlor.com The only stupid question is the one not asked!
I do my best to get a few new templates or graphics up for auction each week; it really just depends on what is going on at home with my children. Between them and my husband they ARE my full time job and keep me on my tippie toes most days.
I get so many wonderful questions that I wanted to answer them here incase anyone out there is bashful like me and are just to timid to ask.
Q: Can the font size, style and color on the templates be changed?
A: Yep, the text style and color with in the description, payment and shipping or terms area can be changed easily by you.
Q: Can you make me a matching About Me page, Storefront, Store Logo, Invoice Logo, Hang Tags, Blog page, Website and Thank You Cards?
A: Yep, I sure can! I can make ANY matching item for any of the template designs in my shoppe.
Q: Can you make Custom Storefronts, Websites, Blog Layouts, Auction Templates, About Me pages, Store Banners, Logos, Digital Hang Tags and Digital Thank You Cards to match the items I am selling?
A: Yep, I sure can! I LOVE custom work and I can’t promise you that it will be an EXACT match to your item, but we will work together until you are happy with your purchase!
Q: Do you offer buy one get one free items or give discounts?
A: I'm sorry, but I don't offer buy one get one free templates or graphics on an everyday basis that is the other guy's slogan, but I will cut you a discount should you deicide to go graphics crazy and buy a whole gaggle! Also watch my store and read my BLOG for great discounts, sales and coupons!
Q: Can I use the Auction Template that I purchased as an About Me Page?
A: I'm sorry, but in order to keep my prices as low as I can separate purchases are required for About Me pages, Logos, Hang tags and Thank You Cards! Just an FYI if you break this rule I will block you from future purchases, and I WILL REPORT YOU TO EBAY FOR THEFT because it is not fair to me and it is STEALING!
Thank you SO much for taking the time to read my a little "About Me & My Family" Page. I hope you visit my auctions and make a purchase VERY soon. It is time for me to go put on my mommy face, lend an ear and kiss a few boo boos.
But, before I go I wanted to leave you with a few favorite, funny quotes that made me smile or gave me a giggle.
See You Soon!
