Etsy Teams!!!

I joined two Etsy teams yesterday!! I am so excited!

The first team is EtsyVeg. I have been following this blog for a few months now, and I am so honored to now be a part of the team! Growing up in a pretty rural area, it could be tough to find like minded people, but having a group like this really helps me renew my beliefs and reassures me I'm not the only one out there!

The second team is The Dachshund Team. Of course my dachshund, Lily, is a huge part of my life (she makes sure of it!) so it only seemed natural to join this team as well.

Please check out their sites!

And thank you to everyone on both teams for already making me feel so welcome :)

Dance :)

I've always admired dancers. Last week I finally got the courage to go into a dance studio and inquire about taking classes. So tonight I am going to try out a lyrical class. I am super excited. Yesterday I went and bought a leotard and tights (kind of a scary thing when you don't exactly have a "dancers" body) so I'm all ready! To celebrate, here are some dance inspired items for you :)

This ballet slipper necklace by White Trash Charms (that I've been eyeing for months now)

This cute ballet slipper charm

This tutu for dogs and cats (I think I've mentioned before how I want this for Lily, but I say it's worth another mention :)

These zebra print ballet flats (which I happen to own!)

This ballet inspired necklace

And this print of bears dancing :Þ

Wish me luck tonight! I hope it's not a disaster :)

So here's some news for you - I love Etsy :)

Here are a few new things added to my favorites recently.

This lampwork bead wire wrapped ring

This mushroom handbag

This hand painted ring

These comic book magnets

This pretty vintage ring

And this pendant

I also listed these two new cards in my shop!

This Little Piggy Card

I took this picture a few years ago at the Maryland State Fair. I want a mini pig so so bad!

and this Antique Furniture Card

This was taken at the Captain Visger Bed and Breakfast in Alexandria Bay. The innkeeper was so super friendly, and she went out of her way both mornings to make Karim and I vegan breakfast. It was so delicious. I would consider making the 8 hour drive again for that alone!

Only three more days until Halloween!! Happy Wednesday!

More New Cards :)

Listed in my Etsy Shop!!

New Things I'm Loving!!

These rings from Molly Proctor's new collection!

This new piglet print from Sharon Montrose. You can't deny he is smiling!

This faux bois log (I'll stick with you)

And this card.
It's another rainy day here in Baltimore. Yuck!

New Items!!

Just posted three new cards in my Etsy Shop!!

The Happy Dachshund Puppy Faux Polaroid Card. This is a Polaroid I made with a picture of my dog Lily when she was only 4 months old. Now that face shows true happiness :)

Love Grows Faux Polaroid Card. Taken in my backyard!

Partly Cloudy Card. Taken a few summers ago on the beach in Ocean City, MD. I love the way it looks, especially as a Polaroid!

Also, I bought this purse from UO today!! I love it!

Happy Monday!

You're a deer :)

I don't even really know why, but I LOVE this! Can't beat that it's from Shana Logic, where everything in the shop is handmade!

I made some new cards earlier this week for my Etsy shop! I'm going to really, really try to get pictures of them outside this weekend and get them listed! It's hard when it rains every weekend though!!

Fingers crossed for good weather :)
