Fall Leaf Coasters

I am really happy with the way these coasters turned out. I decided to add the leaf after I turned them right side out, which makes them reversible.

On a completely different note, I am getting back into yoga and it feels so good! I have terrible posture and the yoga helps prevent getting headaches. I'm finally falling into a routine at our new place which feels nice. Enjoy the weekend!

Farm Fresh

Farm fresh eggs are so pretty with the rainbow of pale blue, white and brown. Love them.

I found the blog Something I Made. It is such a great diy blog brimming with inspiration and how to's galore. Cathe is so generous, so many freebies! Check it out.

To The Farm

What is it about the country? It's so peaceful and pretty. We went to the Two Women Barn Bazaar yesterday. It was fun to walk around and enjoy some music and some nice fall weather. There were some great vendors and it was all set up so nicely.

I really wanted to get this dress, but my mind thinks I'm a better sewer than I actually am. It was huge and I would never get around to actually figuring out how to alter it to fit me. It was so pretty.

The $15 Bell Pepper

I told you I would share my gardening. Here it is. A few herbs and a pepper. The pepper is so tiny! I got this great little green pot just for it.

Halloween Banner

Here are a few halloween banners I made. I think I'll do a few more too. I had so much fun making these. I've been saving cereal boxes, so I cut those out and used spray adhesive to attach the scrapbook paper to them. Check out my shop to see what else I've been up to!
I thought I'd give you a little glimpse into our home, you can see part of that awesome view, I'll share more pics soon!

This thing was a beast to take a photo of. I spent way too much time and got really frustrated!
Have a great weekend everyone! Hope you get outside and enjoy it!

Glitter ATC Swap

It was so fun to receive all the glitter ATC's in the mail yesterday. This was my first ATC swap. I'm doing the halloween one too. I have been in the Halloween spirit making some banners for my etsy shop. The theme was glitter, and it pushed me out of my comfort zone, I'm not a big glitter person. I had so much fun doing it though! It was quite messy and fun. Thank you ladies for all of your cards, I absolutely love all of them!

Fall Centerpiece

This seemed so cool in my head, and yet I feel like it turned out mom-ish. I thought stitching around the edges would make it more hip. I'm not so sure. This is supposed to be a little table runner you can place your centerpiece on. I have one more idea in my head. (You know my new philosophy- yes I'm going to make it. I'm not giving up.)

Finally, I'm feeling brave enough to list some things on etsy that I've made. I really would rather be selling stuff I make, but really it's so much easier to sell vintage items. My feelings don't get hurt if some vintage item doesn't sell because I wasn't responsible for making it. But the whole point is to sell handmade. I'm feeling like I'm kinda getting a sense of my style.

I'm also learning while designing and making things that it takes 3 takes to perfect something. This is really hard to deal with. I want it to be just right the first time. But now I just kinda accept that if it's a new idea it takes a few takes.

On another note, I'm really wanting to say some bad words because I shelled out a lot of money to get the lens cleaned on my camera and now I see a little black spot on that first picture- argh! I've been really good with putting my camera away and keeping it clean. So maddening!

I have more to share tomorrow!
