Specially made Kisses

I do accept custom orders too. Here, cute Erin loved the "Kisses" tassel but really wanted it in pink. When I sat down to make it, I couldn't resist that fantastic large checked ribbon and the "Kisses" tassel took on a whole new look. I am in love with the way the neutral tan fringe and the scrumptious tan check ribbon let the pink pop.

This one is hard for me to let go.

I do hope you enjoy Erin!

First Guest

You might have noticed a few new cute additions to my Etsy shop. My darling, cute friend Jodi wanted to try her hand at Etsy so she posted a few things in my shop while she decides if she would like to start her own store. She's been very successful at our local boutique and can be found at the Farmer's Market during the summer.

Jodi is a incredibly talented and busy! This mother of three beautiful girls is always thinking up something new. It's fun to go to her house and see all of the cute things that she makes. She makes magnets boards, recipe holders, wood letters and burp cloths just to name a few.

In my shop, you will find a set of her wood conversation hearts. These turned out too cute! They look darling scattered about your house or in piled in a bowl. The hearts come packaged in a set of five tied with a coordinating conversation hearts ribbon. Perfect for gift giving or keeping for yourself.

She also makes sweet burp cloths. A babies necessity is made cute with coordinating fabrics and soft minky. Minky fabric has always been my children's favorite. She packages sets of three complete with a gorgeous bow for a stylish yet practical gift for you or your favorite friends.

Be sure to check out all her sampling on Etsy. We would love for her to be as successful on Etsy as she is here.

Guests of the blog

I feel so lucky to be surrounded with talented people. Friends and family that are crafters, scrapbookers, florists, and seamstresses to name a few. Since they are friends and family, I have twisted their arms and convinced them to do guest posts on this li'l ol' blog for me. Look forward in the coming weeks for some new guest posts and a few cute new additions to my Etsy shop!

Rustic Metal Heart

My sister found these amazing rustic metal hearts for me. I loved their rustic shape and size. They screamed that they needed an organic, textural base of cream and brown and while they looked great completely neutral, I couldn't resist adding an unexpected, nontraditional, completely fun pop of satin pink and a sassy stripe.

Now, although I am digging the pop of pink, these could be customized to your hearts content. Go with the neutral base and add in red and/or sage green, or even a smokey blue. Pretty! This could be used year round when neutral.

The cream and brown trim can be fluffed up full or smoothed down. Looks great either way.

Measures 8 inches not including hanging ribbon and about 5 inches wide not fluffed up to my hearts content.
