Serendipity day...love is in the air!

Yay! It's Friday...again...already? Wow, this week flew! It's March 16th...my youngest is getting married on March 31st....ahhhhhh...

 
I have some things I have to do for the wedding and now I'm suddenly down to the wire. Panic is setting in. Hmmm...yup...gonna be busy the next couple of weeks.


This will be my last post until the nuptials are over. I have to focus...focus...focus! Gosh, I hate focusing! I'm a do a little of this, do a little of that kinda gal. But, it's MY kid and he IS getting married sooooo, I guess I will focus, get my tasks completed and be back when cleaning up after him is his new wife's worry!...cue up the happy dance music...shhhhhhh


I thought I should get some wedding gift ideas before I go. There's always time for shopping, isn't there?
I need to find the perfect gift for my little (giant 6'7") baker son....

Gonna stroll through some shops that treasured my shop this week....

let's see what surprisingly beautiful things we can find!

My little (giant 6'7") son loves a good wine.
At Corkycrafts they make fun things from wine corks like this wreath. How cool would that be on the front door?

Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue....isn't this the sweetest hair pin in blue? I found it at WeeLambieVintage she has great vintage items for sale in her Etsy shop.









 Dare I say that I may need this vintage crochet book from Amydscrochet ?
Ok, so that would be for me not them....can I just say...

                                              I ♥ babies!

justByou has opened up a whole new line of delicious treats in her shop. These tasty looking morsels are her "Bumpy Road" treats.


I seriously hope they don't have a "bumpy road"  type of life!

Of course no newlywed couples home is complete without romantic candlelight. AMomentinParadise has this beautiful blue hand poured candle she calls "Blue Lagoon". Sounds like a honeymoon destination, doesn't it?

My son's new bride could wear these very cute flip flops on their Blue Lagoon honeymoon, don't you think? I found them at Creatingwithni, she has a wonderfully eclectic shop!

I found another possibility for something old that just happens to be blue too at FancyDodo. Looks like "blue" is the theme this week!

My son may need an idea for a "♥" gift to his new bride. How perfect is this? ....sigh....young ♥...so romantic! Lucinda at ThisArtOfMine has beautiful mixed media art in her shop too!












And now, I really, really, really need to hop to it and get some things done before March 31st! I hope you found some shops to "♥" this week !

It's A Serendipitous Shopping Day

Whoo Hoo! Friday is my Serendipitous Shopping day
 (I love surprises!)

During the week various shop owners have treasured some of my shop items. I love that!
It's always a surprise to see the beautiful treasuries put together and right there amongst so many crafty things is something from my shop!

Making treasuries takes time and a good eye for color doesn't hurt.

They most often are be put together as part of a team challenge and are a tremendous promotional tool for the Etsy community.

I could show you the treasuries but I thought instead I would like to "pay it forward" and share with you some of the wonderful things in the shops of the crafty people who treasured me this week!
                                   
                                                 So, let's go shopping!!!


 For the pet lover, you might shop at   clasergraphic   for a special pet keepsake.




   Spend A Moment in Paradise with beautiful candles and delicious smelling things to sooth the soul.




     Aloha Cookie Girl    has fun tags and   cards and wrappings straight from Hawaii !        








 Dine in Style makes cloth napkins and coffee cozies but this dinosaur bank is really cute too!

Tonebelle has lots of very nice crochet items and lovely jewelry too!

Sky Blue Designs 2  creates beautifully stunning  mixed metal hair clips

 If you visit Amydscrochet you might find wonderful crocheted things like this afghan (it reminds me of my Grandma, she made lots of these)
                   

And of course, it goes without saying that I love to go to the fabric store. Maras Fabric is a place to find all kinds of great fabric without getting into the car.

                                                
Who knew you could crochet a swiffer cover? Audrey's Cozy Crochet did! What a great idea!

  Sassy Pants  creates simply fun and beautiful jewelry. I love the beads in this bracelet!
