A penny for your thoughts

I am seriously craving this splendiferous necklace from Michelle of Old Soul Jewels. Michelle created this line of jewelry to showcase the lovely craftsmanship in the smallest of common items, and to preserve them for the future. Let's show our appreciation by snapping these up!

More booties
2007-05-22 15:07:00
Eva from appleandeve sent me a link to these handmade felt booties from Quiet Hours Toys. "Cobbler" Sarah Hillgrove's Diddle Dumpling line of baby and toddler shoes are made from wool felt and recycled leather. Each pair of shoes is custom made for your baby's feet.After I looked at the booties I went to check out Eva's shop. She has a precious line of dreaming bird dolls that would be the perfect "extra" to add to your baby gift. She does all her embroidery work by hand from her own patterns, and it is just gorgeous!

I just discovered Feather Your Nest, an adorable shop located in Eureka Springs, Arkansas . For all of you that aren't lucky enough to live here in Arkansas, don't worry, they also have a super cute on-line boutique! My favorite section is "housekeeping," and I think I'm going to have to order a pair of those fabulous gloves. I just can't decide between the "Yellow with Orange Hibiscus" pattern or "Pink with Peachy Rose." What do you guys suggest?

Kevin and I went to see our new niece this weekend. She was so tiny and beautiful, I think I would be content to sit and hold her all day. She was wearing this little onesie from Okawa Studios, and I knew that I had to feature it. I only wish I had a picture of her wearing it!
