The boots!

The boots are my favorite part of these amazing photos by the amazing Heather Armstrong. (www.heatherarmstrongphotography.com )

But look, one of my crowns is lucky enough to be a part!!! Thanks for sharing, Heather!!!

Kate in the woods

You might recognize my super lovely model, Kate, from our previous shoot. But we got together this past weekend and did some nature walking!!

In the midst of all our whimsical picture-taking, we saw a duck, a turtle and .... a snake!! AH!!!

It was such a lovely day though -- a real spring day -- and I hope the pictures paint a picture of it for you :)

If you want to be happy, be. ~Leo Tolstoy

It can seem like life is never quite good enough. No matter how hard I work, there will always be someone better.

One of the main struggles of life is to learn to be happy with what we have ... it sounds simple, but it's almost impossible I've found. 

When I stop and think about it, my life is pretty incredible. I want for nothing besides the occasional overprices Anthropologie item. 

I'm generally healthy (besides all the anxiety issues) and have a loving family and boyfriend. 

But I think everyone who has a goal tends to compare where they are in their lives with others. It's not good.

There. That is my lesson for the day. :) 

Pretty pictures ... and the end?

Found this pretty ballet bridal shoot on SMP --- stylemepretty.com

Here's some slippers from my shop :) Not as old ... but still quite elegant I think :)

Anyways, the real point of this blog is to discuss the continuation of the blog. It's getting so hard to think of things to write about!

Back in "the old days" of my business, I had more free time during my day job to do things like write long blogs. (ha!)

It's ironic really that now that I'm working on Etsy full-time ... from home ... I find myself so super busy and not able to keep up!

Anyways ... thinking of moving this party to Facebook.

Any thoughts?
