Feature Friday! – Morning Tempest Studios

So, I'm a new blogger which technically means I can do whatever I feel like and get away with it. So, that said, I've decided to implement "Feature Fridays"! This is where I will feature another artist on Etsy whose work I love, so that you all can love them too! Yay! Everybody wins!

Today's and my first ever featured artist is Crysta Icore from Morning Tempest Studios. I happened to stumble across her shop and promptly found myself giggling out loud. She describes her shop this way: "This isn't your typical baby boutique filled with teddy bears and pastels. Our bibs, blankets, and t-shirts are geared towards those with more eclectic taste. From steampunk to Ninjas, we do our best to create a shop where you can find entertaining gifts for the extraordinary family." And she couldn't have said it better! Her embroidery is clever, quirky, and has a refreshing twist on cute. 

Find all her super fun creations here:

Fireworks!

Happy 4th of July!!!

It's shapin' up to be a good one too! Not crazy hot yet, so being outside isn't unbearable. Gotta admit, I get homesick on this holiday. I love backyard BBQ's, corn on the cob, a sense of family/friend community. I'm a long way from home though, so today will be a day of phone calls and chilling with my hubby. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that maybe I will be able to see some fireworks from our house though!

Here is a patriotic addition to my shop (with a particularly fun name if I do say so). Hope you all have a wonderful Independence Day!  ;-)

French Toast and Dancing!

Yes, you heard me right. French toast and dancing. What could go better together, you ask? Not much! If you haven't put it together yet from the few blog posts I've written, I'm a bit of a sweet tooth. I'm also a huge fan of dancing, so when the two come together... magic fairy angels sing the macarena.

My new foodie friend has generously invited me to a dinner of peanut butter french toast (sorry husband that I leave behind to fend for himself with dinner). Then we will be off to a night of dancing (and possible indigestion)!

Off to make some pretties for my shop. I have a real sparkly one coming soon!

Caliente Farmer's Market!

Holy smokes, it's hot here today! 103 degrees last time I checked. Today was farmer's market day (love to support our local farmers!) and my husband and I and a new friend of mine definitely made it a point to go early this morning to beat the heat. Safe to say we were attracted to all the juicy, cool, and crisp items as we mopped our foreheads in the sun. We got blueberries and blackberries in this week's haul, so in honor of that and to indulge in the colors of coolness, here is a fresh listing at my shop.
