Lunch Just Got a Little Brighter

I admit it. We are paper towel diners. We had a friend over for Thanksgiving dinner this past fall, put together the prettiest little table (with a tablecloth even!) and had to use paper towels for napkins.

No more.

After some thinking and reading and internet surfing and more thinking, I decided to try my hand at some simple cloth napkins. The results were so sweet that I decided to put them in my second Etsy shop.

The best part? They are small enough for my lunch box and are super washable! Eco-friendly and perfect for day-to-day use. What more could a moonlighting seamstress ask for?

Would love to hear your comments and ideas on this simple little design!

Love Coupons Are Back in the Shop

I was fortunate to find some time to put together another limited run of my handmade valentine love coupons, which were so popular last year. These little lovelies are completely customizable, so if there's special text you'd like to include, you can specify at time of purchase. A delightfully handmade and truly enjoyable gift for BOTH of you!

Etsy Front Page!

I was so fortunate to be included in this lovely treasury from softmelody recently. Reading through comments today, I learned the treasury was featured on the Etsy front page! Hooray! Though I missed the feature (it looks like it was around 6 a.m. Miami time), I did reap the benefits - lots of views and hearts for my little pink stripes and sage dot bags.

It's Carnival Time!

Have Yourself a Recycled Little Christmas

Because we live far from our families, my husband and I always have to travel with our holiday packages. Despite the most careful packaging, we usually end up with torn giftwrap and squished bows when we arrive.

I love wrapping gifts, but am super excited about these bags. No more torn packages, lots of saved time and we can reuse them year after year, so no more piles and piles of wasted paper at the end of the big unwrapping!

Plus, they go great with these gift tags from my lucky duck designs shop!
