Beginning


Here we go!

Creating a blog and shop is something that my mother and I have been thinking about for quite some time. We regularly walk through baby stores or home decorating stores and see things that are beautiful but out our price range and say to each other 'we could make that'. So we started making the things we saw and loved and it worked! We could make 'that' and often with a few adjustments here and there we ended up with a product that we liked more then the original.
So we began creating items inspired by the things we loved. This blog is an attempt to document and share not only the process of creativity but to share a little bit if our lives, my mother an inspiring and creative woman who lives in the country of southern California and can make just about anything she sees weather its crafting, cooking or furniture making. Myself a new mom who strives to live as organically as possible, doing my best to take care of what God has entrusted me with including a loving marriage and my 2 month old son. Both of us share a passion for crafting and creating.
Here is a list of a few of the things we love and are striving to include in our lives and consequently this blog:
  • Crafting
  • family
  • knitting/crochet
  • friends
  • God
  • organic eating (for me this means gluten free and because of my son dairy free)
  • motherhood (healthy babies and happy moms)
  • gardening
  • chickens! (we are hoping these will be a part of our life soon)
  • relationships/marriage
  • sewing
  • Thrift store/garage sale shopping
  • pets
  • the outdoors
  • baby wearing
  • sisters
  • home decorating
