Happy Harvest!

Hope you're enjoying this season of thankfulness! I am thankful that the art gallery I helped my church start is up and running. Details to come...

I have many collections and feel its time for something new. I love magazines, but have way too many of them. Solution: I loaded them up on ebay. I will continue to add more titles regularly. Over the past few months many were sold, but right now I have 70 for sale. There are lots of Somerset Studio and Mary Engelbreit. Here is the link to my store,

Back from Glitterfest

I have been to 2 different Glitterfest's in the Spring and assumed the Fall one would be similar. Well this was so much bigger, that vendors were outside! The variety of artists and creations was delightful. Outside there were plumeria trees in full bloom (pictured) that smelled heavenly. I had a short visit, so I was only able to purchase a few things on my way to another appointment. I so enjoyed talking with many artists. Some of them confessed they were up till 4 AM preparing. There were people with Press passes and cameras taking pictures for magazines. I was so tickled to be there. One of the nicest things that happened was that the artist DollyBelle recognized me and said hello. She wasn't hosting a booth this time, but shopping. I love the way she dresses-its amazing!

You can see the fun things I purchased, namely some vintage posies, a sheet of ledger, and a large tag made by Priscilla. She mentioned giving some classes and contacting me. I collected so many business cards and websites and am slowly going back and reading all their blogs. Glitterfest was too fun!

Its a Great Day!

There have been a few favourite stores of mine that have closed recently. Well today a new online store has opened. It is called Such Pretty Things Shop. If you love vintage anything, you must check it out. When I first began looking online for blogs, Such Pretty Things was one of the first ones I came across. It was at a time of great sorrow, and all of Jessica's pretty colours and ideas were very uplifting. I consider her blog a blessing.

She had indicated that 1 October would be the grand opening, and I quickly made a purchase. There are many different products in various categories; Vintage Craft Supplies, Home Decor, and Jewelry, to name just a few. Her aesthetic is well developed and her colour palette, in soft pastels, is consistent throughout her product line. You must take a look!
