Fish Fear Him...

Alex went fishing with his dad and they sent me some great pictures:

Glad they had a fun day on the lake!

Last Day Etsy Love...

Five days of Etsy Love posts is enough for now! I'm sure as the holidays approach, I'll be stalking Etsy for gifts and maybe share again.
My last Etsy shop that I want to share is Lionsgate Designs. She makes bouquets out of vintage brooches. I {heart} vintage brooches and would love to know where she's getting her stash! I'd use one of her bouquets to use as a floral piece in my home. Aren't the gorgeous:



my fave:


No, this IS my fave:

So pretty, I wouldn't be able to choose!

I hope you've enjoyed the week of Etsy Love - I know I did!

Baby Etsy Love...

Need an awesome, inexpensive (only $5!), well-made baby gift? Head over to Etsy and see MoxieMandie! You will NOT be disappointed.

I bought this one for my friend Rhonda's sweet baby Teagan:

It was so soft and the fabric was perfect since her awesome grandma Shelba keeps her during the day (and Shelba gave Alex a brown teddy bear when he was born, I'm silly sentimental, I know!).

I thinking about getting this one for baby Gavino:


This one might need to be for Josey:


She also makes pillow covers that are in awesome fabrics. :)

Dream Etsy Love...

My dream Etsy store is TianaCHE, her felted creations are delish, but not in my budget. I still love to look at her shop, hope you will too:

If I ever get down to a size 6 (her average size that she makes), I think I'll treat myself to one - HA, don't think I need to start saving my pennies anytime soon, but a girl can dream!

More Etsy Love...

I LOVE purses/bags, I cannot have too many, but I don't change my purse to coordinate with my outfit. Do you? I tend to carry the same purse for a few months at a time. I found an Etsy shop that has my dream fall purses, it's NzLbags.
Check out these gorgeous colors:




And my FAVE:

I'm loving grey, especially when paired with yellow! Cable knit purses = yumminess!
