a little bit of happy for you – this week in photos

Posted on 27. Nov, 2010 by in inspiration, photos

1. A peek at some of the new inventory we are putting together for Cyber Monday! 2. Silly grandpa (and Alice laughing so hard. 3. My favorite ribbons and trim I’m using right now. 4. A new headband to add to the shop soon.

5. Making monkey bread on the day after Thanksgiving. 6. A Scandinavian/fair isle sweater-inspired felt bangle cuff I made. 7. A wonderfully inspirational message on my mom’s bathroom mirror. 8. We usually write “gobble gobble!” on the chalkboard each Thanksgiving, but this year’s family breakfast brunch celebration called for something else!

9. Hot spiced apple cider is a staple in my parents house when the weather gets cold. We just brew Simply Apple apple juice with mulling spices. 10. A baby bootie craft project from the girls at http://sissylove.etsy.com. Thank you so much, ladies! 11. Alice digging through my luggage. 12. Bright colors in our living room.

    You can get a beautiful print of your mom’s bathroom mirror quote from Elise Blaha. I love the ones I’ve ordered from her.

    Here is the listing in her Etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/listing/62484274/more-less-5×7-print-you-pick-the-color

    Also, her blog is awesome. I think you two are kindred spirits.
