I GOT A STOREFRONT DONATED!!!!

Okay, wow I'm so excited to share this news with everyone. I was very worried that I wasn't going to get a storefront donated for the project, but two very kind and generous people donated a GORGEOUS place for this project to happen. I went to see it yesterday, and took some pictures to share with you guys.

Isn't it great!!! Well, that's all for now. I've been working a TON lately so expect more blog updates.

Wow, it has been a month!

Summer is almost here! I'm so excited because that will mean that I am out of school, relaxing and winding down from freshmen year. I honestly cannot believe that it all has gone by so fast. Ursuline has just been so great to me, the teachers, the students and the faculty. I absolutely adore going to Ursuline. On another note, summer getting here means that work on my project will start speeding up a ton.

Over these past couple of months, I have been hard at work collecting donations. In these coming days (months), I will be working a TON making sure that this whole project itself happens. That will mostly include choosing the girls and setting up a space. At this point in time, the donations that have been given are pretty much enough to outfit ten girls. I really just need to get jewelry and accessories for everything to be complete. I would also have liked make-up to have been included, but I wasn't able to receive any.

Choosing the girls, seems to me like a daunting task. I want to make sure that the girls chosen are absolutely perfect. I will get it done very soon though. Please pray for me about that. Also, please just pray for this project in general! That would seriously mean the world to me. :)

Now, onto some fun stuff! I haven't really updated with donations lately, so I'll do a little mini-update right now...with pictures!!! This is a picture of stuff received from the VERY popular jean company, Miss Me! I'm so ecstatic that Miss Me sent stuff for the project, they are so great and many girl love their clothing. Please excuse the bad quality of the picture, I took it with my webcam.

Also, besides the donation from Miss Me, I have received very thoughtful and large donations from Tommy Hilfiger, Joes Jeans, and Hot Topic! I will put up pictures later...also I'm going to be doing a blog post abut some inventory I did a while back with my aunt when she was visiting from New York.

I have to go now and study for finals.... :P But, I will update soon!!!

Thank you!
