Sunday Afternoon Housewife

It’s been an awfully long time since I’ve done a Friday Favorites post, but I figured since my birthday is only about 3 weeks away, I better give ya’ll some time to order me some goodies! Really though, I do love sharing things that I find beautiful with you, and I love when you share [...]

I have a small personal goal for 2011 which I would like to share with you today. It’s nothing life altering really, but I hope it will be bath altering. I have a goal in 2011 to use only handmade soap. I don’t want to use that stinky over processed chemical stuff that comes from [...]

As short as it is so far, there have been several amazing blog posts by some of my favorite bloggers over the last few days. Many of you may have missed them because you have been busy wrapping up the holidays and ringing in the new year, so today I wanted to round up some [...]

Last Saturday was the most awesome ever INDIEana Handicraft Exchange.  If you didn’t get to make it to the event, you’re probably regretting it already. With over 100 booths and vendors from all across the continent, the biggest problem I had all day was trying not to spend every last cent of my own hard [...]

Last Saturday I was at the Bloomington Handmade Market spring event, and what a wonderful time I had! I was so busy most of the day selling my jewelry I never got a break, but thankfully my dear friend Liz took time out of her day to come sit at my booth for the last [...]

So, after a whirlwind weekend in Fort Worth, I headed down to Austin for SXSW. I was in Austin for 5 nights, 4 days, and between day parties and late nights, I did my best to find as much awesome handmade goodness as I could. One of the best places I went to scope out [...]

Earlier this month I spent 10 days in Texas, first in Forth Worth, then Dallas, and then Austin. First I was in Fort Worth for the Funky Finds Spring Fling. I had a great time as a vendor at the fair (you can read about my adventure by clicking here), but I also met some [...]

Of course my upcoming trip is about all that is on my mind, so I decided it would be lots of fun to look at travel goodies in this week’s Friday Favorites! I did a simple search on Etsy and typed in “travel” and one of the first things to catch my eye (of course [...]

I’m taking a little break this week from my “regular” Friday Favorites of only handmade items and instead sharing some of my favorite websites to go and  look at things. It’s weird sometimes how I can spend so long just looking at things that interest me. So, if you are a looker, like me, here [...]
