Christmas Lights

 There is something so magical about Christmas lights.  I love the idea of decorating with them both inside and outside.
 They make me somewhat nostalgic when I see them or think about them.
 So...
So...beautiful.

Happy Holidays

Great Holiday

We had a great holiday, full of family, friends, and amazing food!  I'm so full that I think I should squeeze in a little extra time at the gym this week!  I love Thanksgiving because it feels like the start of the holiday season.  The calm before the storm.  I truly enjoy this time of year!

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!

We're Open!

Happy Sunday!  It's been quite a busy weekend.  We spent all of yesterday photographing, editing, and opening our Etsy shop!  We are so excited to finally have it up and running.
 We have quite a collection of our Reusable Composition Notebook Covers available!  I love these sooo much!  They are made from cotton and include a perfect little pocket on the front to hold a pen and some other goodies that you might need to stash away.  I use mine all time. 
 The great thing about them is that once you fill up your notebook, all you have to do is slip off the cover, and slide in a new composition notebook in it! 
 These book covers can be used over and over!
 Pat created a set of absolutely beautiful holiday place-mats as well!  I love how festive our table looks with with them!

It is such a pleasure to share with you guys all the work we've done in the past few months!  We put a lot of work into making sure that our products are of the highest quality! 
We hope you all have a beautiful Sunday!

Happy Halloween

 When I was younger, I dressed up as a witch on every Halloween.  With the exception of one year when I was an angel.  What made me want to dress up as a witch every year?  I'm not sure.  Maybe it was the magical powers, or maybe it was the pointy hat.  Year after year, my witch costumes would evolve, and they would become more and more distinguished and unique.
 My Halloween weekend has been very nice and relaxing.  The weekend has been full of scary movies, crocheting, and walks in the park.


And tonight, the scary movies will continue!
Happy Halloween!

Snow Today

We had our first snow today.  Thankfully its not suppose to stay. It was a good day to make soup and craft for the afternoon. I'm currently working on a quilt in navy, gold, reds and greens. I have laid out all my christmas fabrics waiting for inspiration! Hope everyone has a great week.

Fall Colors

Can you believe it almost November?  Fall is heavy in the air today.  The colors are beautiful and inspiring. We started the day quilting and then moved on to developing fleece hats, because we all know that fall does not last as long as we would like.  Winter is on its way.
 My favorite colors are those that many associate with fall.  I'm attracted to rich deep colors such as burgundy, brown, and rust.  My daughter calls them 'mom colors'.
Thanks for visiting! I'm excited about this new adventure!
