Canine Chic

I literally let out out a squeal when I saw Beantown Handmade's doggie adornments on the front page of etsy.

They are the cutest dog accessories I have ever seen. For Real.

HeartFelt

Now that the holiday season is long gone and I am getting comfortably settled into 2010, I am finally feeling inspired to craft. With Valentine's Day just around the corner, what better excuse to make something pink and pretty?I have to mention that aside from our etsy shop items (that my mom and I create together) I rarely ever share anything that I make on my own because I am always self conscious about whether or not anyone else would think it is cute. Does anyone else ever feel like this?I guess I just feel like with so many amazingly creative people, and so many wonderful ideas out there, that I am out of slightly out of my league. I don't know why I feel that way. I am always so quick to share beautiful things that other people make here on my blog, why not my own? I think my 2010 goal will be to craft more and be proud of what I make :) Starting with my felt heart stitched Valentine. I may sell this in the etsy shop.....haven't decided yet. I am not sure what to promote it as. It is basically a decorated heart that you can hang. So maybe a door hanger? Or maybe it could be a gift accessory? A Valentine keepsake? Any suggestions?

PrettyNenny

Good morning Lovelies. I hope your Monday is off to a great start! I wanted to share this new Etsy Designer, prettynenny.

Prettynenny makes wonderful hairbands that are just as easy to wear as they are gorgeous.

Sporting a hairband is an instant way to glam up your look. Wear this pink plaid one to unlock your inner school girl.

Hairbands are also a great accessory for your bridesmaids. Matching bands would be a great way to unify them leaving them free to wear non-matchy dresses.
