Sunday (on Thursday) Gift Guide: the wanties
November 19th, 2009No beating around the bush on this one, friends. This is all stuff that I want for myself, plain and simple. Beautiful, magical, inspiring things that make my own heart skip beats. I started to write a draft of this to auto-post on Sunday, but decided to just do it now so it’s not in the middle of my two “leaving” blog posts. A cookie to whoever can guess what I title them. Hint: Lost.
Hand-carved cherry wood spoon by joinery : $28.00. I could drag myself into the kitchen on a day with no cooking motivation just to be able to use this velvety looking spoon.
Ribbon screen printed skirt by made with love by hannah : $68.00. I want this skirt to wear every day of the year. It is happiness incarnate… in skirt form. Size small!
and…
Sweetest prints ever by Freya Art : $5.50 each. I don’t know which I love best, so I want them both to frame as a pair.
Recycled chandelier necklace by Eco Bling Couture : $36.00. For when I need to break out of my mama uniform.
Set of three apple-print reusable snack pouches by Cotton Top Quilts : $19.00. To accessorize my mama uniform :)
I can’t even tell you how long I have loved this piece. I don’t even know if I’m worthy. Birch bark cuff bracelect by elizabeth scott designs : $210.00. My wrist is 5.5 inches around, by the way. And also, I love her ginkgo ring (size 5)… and everything else she makes. Love with every square inch of my heart. Just sayin’.
Listning: David Rawlings Machine
(Hazel is) Reading: Big Red Barn
Working on: last night I finished up packaging a batch of earrings to drop off at La Perlerie this morning – that is IT. NO MORE CRAFTING. …until next week.
Packing progress: I don’t even know – it’s crunch time and I’m in a frenzy. It’s under control, but in a frenzy. I farmed a third of my house plants to Chris, John, and Georgina this morning, and am about to go fill the five boxes I pre-taped for use during Hazel’s nap. And instead I am blogging???

I knowwwwwwww… it’s probably your fault that I love it. You have genetically predispositioned my wrists to need silver cuffs :)
