Little art prints are the perfect thing to tuck in on any wall. In the kitchen, next to the phone, in the bathroom, hung next to the front door... a sweet little printed illustration or sentiment can always find room in your home. That is why LuckyBluebirdArt is one of my favorite Etsy stores. Full of adorable and unique items, you are sure to find the perfect piece of art for your house! :)

{A modern twist on bird prints, this one tops my list of favorites!}


{The perfect print to hang in the bathroom to remind the little ones to wash up!}


1. This toaster & birdie print would look amazing hung in a kitchen!
2. Would this look adorable in a kids' playroom? Remind them to treat each other nicely. :)
3. And another perfect kitchen or dining room print. :)
4. Add a little whimsy to the walls with this gray and white print!

Happy Thursday!

PS.
TWO DAYS until the re-do day, eeek!!! I have sewn the curtains and gotten everything ready. Can't wait to share the pictures with you. :)

I love wallpaper.

Yes, I am one of those people who think wallpaper is unusally charming and busy. However, it is a pain to pick out, decide on, put upon the walls, take down from the walls, yada yada yada.

Enter in wall decals in the form of a wallpaper! Yahoo! No more do we need to slave away on real wallpaper when we can create our own! Way cheaper, way more creative, and you can rip it down easily it you get bored. This shop caught my eye in the past few days because of the clever designs and uses for these vinyl decals. I'm totally in love!

And PS. I'll let you all in on a little secret, but don't tell Andrew. :) I'm pulling a complete surprise-bedroom-re-do-makeover on him in a couple weeks. I am transforming his bedroom from toddler-cute-four-year-old room to cool-snazzy-organized-first-grader-room. Sssshhhhh. He has no idea. I'm so excited. So I got the idea to do a vinyl decal headboard in his room and these totally caught my eye. In the end, these decals were a little too girly to pull off in a six-year old boy's room, but wait until you see what I did find. I'm up to some fun things, let me tell you. Wait and see, friends... wait and see.

In the meatime, go buy some cute stickers and goop up your walls. :) xo!

I had such a hard time deciding which shop to feature this week.

With the Queen Bee Market this past weekend,

I had an abundance of shop inspiration to choose from!

SO...

I chose two!

I did a little shopping there and want to share two of my fab finds with you. :)

Onto the yummy Etsy goods....

1. Stacey Winters' Fabric and Paper Brooch

{Bought one for my momma for Mother's Day and it is oh-so-darling. And you know I love the bits of dictionary pages in this brooch. Genius!}

2. Emily Sparks Blooming Headband

{Comes in a variety of colors. I love love love my slate grey one and have had a serious problem taking it off my head. :) }

Let's just say...

These Queen Bees were extra-talented.

Happy shopping, xo! :)

This shop is so cute, I could eat it all up!
{Literally!!}
SugarRobot is the most fanciful shop on Etsy,
stocked full with edible decorations for your next party treat!
Or if you just want to make extra-fancy cupcakes for yourself,
which I personally think is a fantastic idea.
I mean,
who wouldn't want to sit down and devour one of these?! :)





OK, now I want a cupcake. :)
SugarRobot is amazing.
Happy Tuesday, xo!

"Moon Buns are delightful little bunnies that come from the land of Moon, a beautifully forested valley surrounded by mountains. The Moon Buns love to sing, dance, dress in fancy costuming and put on plays, but they love making new friends even more."


Where can you get your own little moon bun?
From this whimsical little shop!
And the bees are to die for.
And the mochi birds, too.
And every single one of these little creatures, eek!
I bought Andrew the charcoal moon bun and tucked it in his stocking this past Christmas and he was instantly in love. He appreciates sweet little faces like I do and likes to take care of small stuffed animals. :)
I'd like to buy myself a whole pile of moon buns.
Who's with me?! :)

They are subtle, yet so imaginative.
One of my etsy-faves at the moment for sure.
Please visit this darling shop here!

I've got about a million shops that inspire me daily.

I like to etsy-stalk people and drool over their fabulous finds.

So why not share them here?

Each Tuesday, I will be posting a pretty little shop!

Know of any cute shops on Etsy or around the www?

Let me know!

Onto the first of many....

This shop is scrumptious!

Tiny paper flowers, butterflies, and bouquets round out the sweetest little shop!

I think these yellow butterflies would look gorgeous dotting the top of a birthday cake or cupcakes. Seriously, these stunning little paper goods coulc be used in a multitude of ways.

Pop over here to visit The Gilded Bee! :)

Happy Tuesday, xo!
