NYC was great! now headed to Chicago

This past week was so great!

Dh and I took a short vacation to visit US, few days in New york city and now we are on our way to chicago for a week.

It seems like i just been here few weeks ago, always a pleasure to come back to this city and even more fun to see places i remember :)

With some of you guys recommendations i went to check http://www.metalliferous.com/ which was like getting into heaven! this store is the place i want to live in! i spent about 1.5 hours in there (i think, if not more), thank you so much my facebook friends who told me to visit there :)

Cafe Wha was also a great night, and shopping, shopping and more shopping!

I found some cool bookmark bases, they are so cute and comfortable i had to make some, after making some prototypes and testing how they sell, i took them with me to one of the fairs i am doing, it was a great success! people wanted them as personal gifts with names on them.

another addictive product :)
