VOL.25

The buttons are here!

I received them in the mail today, photographed them, and even had time to get them listed. I absolutely love how they turned out. So cute and...well mini. I was worried the text would be too small to read very well. While I admit it certainly doesnt jump out at you... it is still readable. :) Here is a close up, the black and white is really striking! These would be a great addition to a vision board, or as a little gift for someone in need of a little pick me up. There really is SO many uses. The... Read more →

the butterflies are free- NEW art!

Here is the first print resulting from my butterfly inspiration. :) I titled it "The Butterflies Are Free" and listed it in the shop a little earlier this morning. I still have 4 other butterflies sketched, that I havent used yet. So, I definitely see more coming. I have such a hard time not making every print into a print set. :) I seem to really be having a hard time holding back on this one....So a matching print may yet still come. I printed this yesterday and put it in on that wall. I love it to pieces. Every... Read more →

check it out!

I am so glad I listed these prints yesterday, "is tomorrows wish" made it to the etsy homepage today. Resulting in at least one sale, a bunch of views and a TON of hearts! I think it blended great with the other etsy items chosen. :) Its been awhile since I have posted pictures of any interior updates (aside from trins room) Now that Jaydon is back from his trip, we are focusing on getting things done around the house before baby arrives. Not that this is a priority... but he finally installed my ikea booklighting! I purchased them on... Read more →

Yet another new print set...

Hello! Its a little late, (again!) but I haven't had a chance to blog about this new print set. I listed them a little earlier today, and keeping with tradition... I am now blogging about it. :) The prints are also listed individually. This is the set I was working on (and finished) before the kitchen series. I suppose I had considered keeping these to myself until after the baby was born. But, I think Lyndsey from Coveiter is right... I need to list them as I finish them. Thanks for the advice Lyndsey! Hopefully a couple weeks after the... Read more →

the cherry on top...

Ok! So, its late... and this will be my THIRD post for the day, and I really need to get to bed, but I HAD to post this first. Before heading to bed, I was doing a quick run through of my favorite blogs, and found yet another surprise over at decor8. :) An actual feature in her etsy take five tuesdays column. Yep... ME! Even though I paid for advertising on her blog a few months back, I have dreamed of an actual feature. So, this was like the cherry on top to an absolute perfect sundae of a... Read more →

inspiration with wings

As I have said before... I generally have several projects or ideas running through my head at one time. One certain project has been on my list of things to do for months now. You can probably guess just what it contains? Yep, butterflies. I have been researching the different species, and am slowly compiling information for a new series. I browsed flickr for some gorgeous photography, and created this mosaic. I thought you may enjoy it as well. I am still not sure exactly where the series will go, I have so many different ways I can push the... Read more →

discovered "chirp away" on decor8 this morning!

To say I am excited, is somewhat of an understatement. :) I just now found one of my first prints "chirp away" featured in the fresh finds column on decor8's blog. Yay!! This completely made my day... and I will probably be feeding off of the excitement, the rest of the week. :) Here is a screen shot I snapped seconds after spotting myself! :) also, I am working on two new additions to the i heart kitchen series. I have one completed, and thought I would share a teaser... :) I promise a full image will appear in the... Read more →

i heart kitchens

Me again!! I really wanted to wait to list/post these until I could get some super cute pictures of these in my kitchen, but since I still have to snag myself some snazzy frames, I decided I had better just list them. :) I adore the colors and freshness of this whole set. Since 4 is hardly enough to fill the walls in my kitchen, I really foresee some new additions to the series. Any ideas? I considered a toaster, definitely need a toaster in there... :) Maybe a vintage stove? They are all available individually in the shop as... Read more →
