etsy children's find..nana company



I am having trouble getting off Etsy. (The dishes are still on the table.) My little girls love to play in their little wood play kitchen. We have lots of wood food but nothing as cute as these felt confections from nana company.

etsy children's find..maya papaya













Tonight I was experiencing a case of bloggers block. Perhaps it is the dinner that didn't exactly get cleaned up. (My husband is out of town and he is better at rallying the troops.) So I decided to peruse Etsy under children. It didn't take long for me to find something to love. These beautiful clips by maya papaya are hand stitched out of 100% wool felt. They would make the perfect stocking stuffer.

love...lilly























I am a huge Lilly fan. She is my aunt and one of the most wonderful people I know. The only thing better than Lilly... is Lilly on sale. Above are my favorites from the sale section on the C Orrico web site.

love...cb2










I love the clean look of lucite or glass and I love the reasonable prices at CB2. I bought the lamp for my office and the coffee table for my guest room.

christmas












My love of home, family and anything vintage makes Christmas my favorite holiday. I know that it is too early to decorate for Christmas but it doesn't mean that I can't start thinking. Above are some fun vintage looking finds from hometraditions.

I was inspired by coveiter to check out Linda & Harriett. (They wrote about the holiday cards in their wonderful blog.) Above are my favorites from Linda & Harriett. Take look..they have lots more.

children's books by Robert McCloskey












Bed time stories are a sweet time for me. In our house we always tuck the kids in and read just outside the door in hopes that they drift off to sleep before the story ends. Tonight I read One Morning in Maine for the millionth time. I still love it. His drawings are amazing and his stories timeless. All of the above books are ones that we read over and over.
