Funny little bits!
I wanted to share some of the items the sweet Post Lady brought to my door the week!
The adorable black droplet and cozy little house are from AshleyG! One of my favorite Artist! I love her work and wish I had more money to start my own Ashley collection :) These little mini paintings are actually made of porcelain, and being a lover of clay I just new I had to have them.
Next are these amazing buttons by Urbanturn. I love the shape and texture of these beauties! I have not decided yet what I will make of them, but all I know is it better be good! I am also a lover of interesting and strange items, and these being made from deer antler are defiantly different!
*Even though I am not fond of hunting, and I myself would never do it. I do believe in utilizing parts of already dead animals.*
Stay warm and cozy!
Cheers

Why I love......
mymy! If you haven't check out her shop you have been depriving yourself of awesomely cute and quirky buttons! Perfect addition to any cardigan these 1 inch buttons offer a stylish and or opinionated accessory. I have listed below 3 of my favorites!
Girls with glasses rock harder! Such a true statement, and just because I wear black glasses does not make me bias :)

I love photobooths! This button always reminds me of one of my favorite books: "photobooth" by Babbette Hines. One of the coolest books and buttons ever!


Now I am differently not your typical house wife (just ask my Husband!) but I sure do love to bake! At Thanksgiving I am always in charge of all the desserts! I think this year I will wear my "I Bake" button to dinner!
♥♥♥
Now mymy is not just about buttons...she makes her own yarn , Zines, and is a HUGE supporter of Artist and Crafters! She has a website dedicated to selling, displaying, and giving info to independent artisans. I personally love her craft guide to all the up and coming events!
So if you need buttons, yarn, artisan support, or just to talk to a really awesome girl...head on over to mymy!

Hello out there!
It has been a whirl wind couple of months! I hope everyone is doing well? I have been sick twice in the last 3 weeks! ugh! I finally got over my yucky sore throat and fever..and then hubby went on a business trip! And everyone knows what planes carry..well besides people :) they carry lots of germ infested people! So next thing I know hubby, kid and I are all sick! So here I sit drinking some tea and eating saltines. What a way to spend a day!
Well besides being sick, many things have been happening since my last post! I know, I know, I haven't been posting ...sorry! I just don't have enough time in a day! So time to play catch up.........
Lately I have been going a little button crazy! I have tons and tons of antique buttons that I adore. So finally I decided to add a button touch to one of my pouches! I think it came out splendid! I love this color combo to and defiantly see it making an appearance in later ity-bity Bags :)

Ok, now for the big news! The past 2 weeks I have been sewing like a mad women and feel like I am being smothered by squid! Why you ask? Well my ity-bity squids are soon to be off to the Mtv movie awards swag bags! How awesome is that! I am so excited (but very tired of sewing) and can't wait for them to be done and arrive safe! The Mtv awards airs on June 1st, so keep your eyes peeled for any ity-bity squids :)
Also Harriet the hoot will make an appearance in the new Etsy ad featured in the June Venus Magazine! So go pick up a copy and check it out!
So see..I did not forget about you! It has just been a little cray around here!
Happy Wednesday!
