A wonderful treasury I would love to share! It was inspired by a song called "You're Just a Country Boy" as sung by Alison Krauss.
Such cute imagery in this song and the treasury!
Check it out!!

What do you want to be when you grow up?
So its cliche, I know it is. But the thing I keep asking myself lately is What do I want to be when I grow up? As a recent college graduate, there are many things I would like to do and just can't seem to figure out which is best for me.
Being a starving musician always sounds fun, until you are one and can't pay your bills and then you want a "real" job.
I've been thinking lately about possibly going back to school (shocking, yes I realize I just left) and getting my arts education teaching certificate. Another piece of paper that is suppose to tell people...hey this girl can have a job!
So to all my fellow Etsian, what do you want to be when you grow up?
This can sometimes be a superficial question or you can make it mean more, depending upon your answer. I haven't figured out mine but has anyone? I really would love to hear your life determining stories! When I think of what I want to be, I also think about the good ole' bucket list idea. How much do I want to accomplish before I leave this fine earth?
A website that I found some beautiful inspiration in this week is the Before I Die Project. When you look at the answers from around the world, makes you want to do something, to change something, and really puts you back into check to stop whining about your life. So please check it out! It is an amazing look at humanity! This was a slightly sporatic entry....but I don't mind...it is how my brain works...and I'm saying no to proofreading since this was more like a journal entry than anything else.
So for one day I'm not going to try to get you to buy something from my Etsy site or anyone else, just want to inspire and possibly make you think. Because lord knows we can all use a little of both every once in a while!
Cheers to all!

It's About Time I Show Some of My New Items!
It has been a while since I've just shown some of my new items.
Since I've moved to Nashville, I've had some free time to kill on my own and I've been thrift shopping a lot. So vintage items have really been my specialty lately. This is only the beginning to the collection I've found in the last couple of weeks but I figure, hey, it is a good start.
Lots of nice cozy fall wools
And don't forget a girls best friend, SHOES!
There are many other new Vintage items in the shop and there will be more added daily.
In addition to the new vintage items, I've also started a Songbird Stationary Series. All simplistic pieces of stationary with lovely songbirds adorning the papers. This is a new work in progress, so I'm open to suggestions and also open to special orders.
In additon to that, if you haven't already, make sure to add me on Twitter and Facebook to keep current with daily promotions and sales!
