Love the bamboo pens!! One little thing I enjoy is a nice hot cup of tea with a little piece of dark chocolate! Perfect for a fall October day!

Fran is the winner of our bamboo pens!

fun friday giveaway

Most of the time our home doesn't look the way I want it to look. Shoes and backpacks littering the floor, dishes in the sink, and some sharpie on the upholstery that the dog has eaten a chunk of. I don't long for it to be different because that will mean that my seven children have grown and are gone.

I do crave order and beauty where I can find it...usually in the little things.

I love having a fun container full of matching pencils or pens on a desk or by the phone. Years ago I ordered about 1000 red pencils for my red and green kitchen. This week we got in a shipment of these bamboo pens for Kayce's Store and I am in love. I will confess that I can never get enough bamboo. (I found the white and green container at salvation army.)

It was so fun to hear from so many of you last week that I decided to do another fun Friday giveaway. I will be giving away two sets of pens. Just leave a comment and I will pick a winner on Tuesday. I would love to hear about you and what "little things" you enjoy.

Happy Friday!

spring

I know that everyone is so excited that Fall is here. But in my business we are finishing up next Spring and working on next Fall.

Today one of my favorite models tried on some of next springs goodies that will end up on our web site.
I have been so spoiled, having models at my finger tips. It won't be quite this easy when the models aren't mine.

But for now I am enjoying it.
And lucky for me she does too.

tin can treats

This past Sunday my friend Melodie asked the girls to be part of a photo shoot for her fabulous party in a camper Tin Can Treats.

They had a blast eating lots of her goodies.

I had a blast being inspired by Melodies beautiful styling and seeing one of my favorite photographers in action.

These are a few of our photos as we tried to stay out of Tec's way but I can't wait to see the real photos!

the winner!

Thank you to everyone who left a comment! The winner of our wooden necklace is sarah k. Sarah please let me know your address and we will get your necklace shipped right out.

fun friday giveaway

One of the things that I love about blogging is all of the fun creative people I have "met" along the way. One of my favorites is Lauren from Pure Style Home. If you don't already read her blog please head on over. She has a great sense of style, can create on a budget and I love her honesty that comes through her blog.

When I saw her new picture on her blog I was so excited because she is wearing our necklace.

Now one of my lucky readers can have one too.

Just head over to my web site and let me know your favorite women's dress. Leave a comment for a chance to win. If you put this on your blog just let me know and that will give you 10 chances to win.

I hope that everyone has a wonderful and restful week end.

I will announce the winner on Wednesday!

Happy Birthday Charlotte

Yesterday was a very special day.

My oldest girl turned....

It seams just like yesterday that she was modeling my tiny new line of clothing for little girls.

Now she is a beautiful young lady who I love to hang out with. She is smart and creative and it has been a joy to watch her grow up.
