As promised, here is the second installment of my Renegade Craft Fair day. I found a few perfect gifts this year: a pair of beautiful votives from Julie Dye Craft for my sister, a cute notebook for my sister-in-law and a print (that I’m using as a birthday card) for Joel. I couldn’t resist these [...]
This was my second Renegade Craft Fair and I feel so lucky that I’ve gotten to go two years in a row. Maybe it was the perfect weather or the fact that Abby and I are now totally awesome Renegade veterans, but I enjoyed this year even more than last. The variety of the booths [...]
I have a pretty little necklace collection and for months I’ve been bookmarking ideas for how to display them. I’ve added jewelry trees and decorative hooks to online shopping carts only to leave them unpurchased. I couldn’t find anything I was happy with. So I finally just put a few nails in the wall above [...]
Lately, I’ve been missing the old handmade interview feature I used to have here. It was so fun getting to share my favorite Etsy artists! So I’ve decided that from time to time I’ll have a little Handmade & Vintage Spotlight post popping up. I hope you’ll enjoy them and find something you love, too! [...]
A few days ago, I got a small package in the mail. I opened it at once and found it bursting with the embroidery floss I had ordered. I wanted a few more color options for the bracelet and anklet I’m making for the swap, but I must have ordered way more than I realized. [...]
Even though I’m really looking forward to Fall, (it’s going to be an extra great one this year!) I’m determined to fill the rest of the summer with good things. I’ve been planning day trips, plotting visits to farmers markets, and bookmarking summery things to make and do. Today’s summer loves are just a few [...]
I’m so excited to introduce you to a brand new feature that will be popping up from time to time! I’m calling it To Make and To Do and it’s going to be part to-do list and part how-to. I’m hoping these posts will keep me busy trying new things and finishing (or starting!) projects [...]
My beautiful iPhone sleeve from RobbieMoto came today and I know it’s something I will cherish for ages. Joel and I both pronounced it “sunny” as soon as I took it out of its wrappings. It’s so well made and soft. I can’t decide what I love the most about it, the dovey gray, the [...]
Happy Wednesday! I’m just popping in to share some things I’m loving today, enjoy! I haven’t made a wishlist in a while and when I noticed a lot of things that looked pretty together hanging out in my Etsy favorites I thought it would be fun to put one together. Here’s what I’ve been window [...]
Today’s handmade interview is with the wonderfully talented accessory maker, Ele from Ele Handmade. Her creations are stunning! I keep dreaming of this pair of pewter colored ballerina shoes. I think my spring kind of needs them!
I write about things I like: knitting, fashion, books, and other cozy, lovely things. Thanks for visiting!
