A Few Tuesday Treats

Just a few of the new treats listed on our site this cloudy
Tuesday afternoon.

Sunbathing

Sunbathing on a Sunday morning. . . ahh the life of a cat.

April in Paris

After being sick for over a week I am slowly getting back in the swing of things. One of our new collections was just completed and we have several others on the way! This one is called April in Paris. It is frilly and feminine and features a soft pastel palette
with lots of lace and ribbons.

It includes a variety of note cards, gift tags, journals, bottles, stamped bags and a few other treats! Each has a little French message.

I really love the images, they are rather stoic but very beautiful.

Some pieces also have stamped burlap accents.

This is the first journal. Lots of vintage lace and pretty paper rosettes adorn the cover, simple yet elegant.

A sweet bottle to fill with buttons or craft supplies.

The second journal has a wide row of vintage lace and a pastel graphic paper background. Very pretty in person, as you can tell I was beginning to loose my light while photographing these last few.

This is just a sampling of the complete collection now available here. We hope you like them as much we do. Well, back to work on our other new collections.
Happy Wednesday!

A Spare Moment

Though my spare moments are few and far between lately I managed to sneak in some time early this morning to list a few new items. It has been a busy week around here, sick kiddies, sick hubby and much cleaning going on. We have just a few weeks left before escrow closes so it is yard sale time!

I have been going through closets and cupboards. . . piles of things to get rid of and new goodies to buy!

We also need some new furnishings so I am really excited to go shopping!

Anywho. . .here are a few of the new treats now available here.

I especially like the new bunny mannequins! They are just darling in person.
Well break time is over, back to cleaning!
Enjoy your weekend!

A Little Faith . . .

This is what I keep reminding myself lately, to have a little faith. I am happy to say it is working as things are gently falling into place. My husband and I are in the midst of buying our first house right now. We have just over 4 weeks to go until closing. I am so overjoyed, it really is a dream realized for us and we are so fortunate the house is just what we wanted. It is an old home built in 1915 with many unique original features. It needs some work but that will be the fun part! So lately when I find myself running around at a million miles an hour not realizing if I am coming or going I just stop and remind myself it will all be worth it very soon. Though I am unable to do all the projects I had planned for the shop this month, we are doing what we can to keep things going before I will be taking a break to get settled in to our new home. I am a bit superstitious so I won't say anymore but we will be sharing the transformation with you all as I have some big plans in mind.
Happy Sunday! :)

A Few Vintage Valentines

Well vintage inspired anyways. I enjoyed another day of creating. It was cold and raining so the perfect time to get some new goodies made. I worked primarily on Valentines with a few wedding things as well.

I was on a roll today and before I knew it, made well over a dozen gift tags. Don't you just love it when you are "in the zone."

I also stamped some gift bags. . .

and made some new note cards. I just love the way they turned out and it was nice to play with pink for a change.

Well I am off to snuggle on the couch with a cup of cocoa, my sweet hubby and a movie. For a closer look at these goodies and more, visit our site here. :)

Just Messing Around

It was a sunny cool day here and while the kids enjoyed playing outside I took some time to play a bit as well. It has been such a busy few months here as we have been house hunting and have finally found our little dream home. Now while we wait for things to move forward with it I jumped at the chance today to relax and create just for the fun of it! The first thing I did was this wreath. I have always wanted to make one so I tried my hand at it and this is the result!

I also made a creamy lace covered canvas. .

and a few Valentine treats. It was such an enjoyable day and now that I have the creating bug I am off to play some more this evening!
These creations and a few other new goodies are available here.
Happy Crafting!
