New Vintage Wallpaper Jotters in the Shop!

My mother gave me this really beautiful Schumacher sample wallpaper book from the 1940's and it has a ton of really cool designs. I knew I wanted to make something with them but I wasn't sure until today.

As you can see I decided to make pretty little jotters. I played around with some different sizes and ways to bind it. I ended up going with a 3"x 3-1/2" size and after much thought I ended up stapling them together and tying a pretty white ribbon over the area that I stapled. I sort of went crazy with making them today and I had so much fun picking out the patterns!

These are really great for your purse or better yet a stocking stuffer! There are only 6 of each set so get yours before there all gone! :)

You can see more about them on my etsy shop designlovely.etsy.com

Citrine & Midnight Cluster

Jane from Glorious hats makes the prettiest treasuries so I was smitten when she decided to make a cluster. Here is a pretty one she recently did called "A Pale Shade of Citrine". I love that by doing so she introduced me to a few new gorgeous shops. Thanks Jane!

I decided to make a monochromatic cluster as well using navy blues. I call this one "Midnight Beauty".

You can see more about these items on the clusters page HERE>>

Etsy Favorites

You may have noticed but I am an etsy fanatic. I am always looking for beautiful handmade and vintage items and I get pretty giddy looking at all of them together. I am especially digging my favorites from the past week.

This weekend I have some hiking and tennis planned. Yesterday I played disc golf. Could I be getting addicted to outdoor activities now? Probably not but it definitely is a great way to get my butt of the computer. What did we do before the internet? Hhhmmm.... Yeah..... I dont remember either. :)

Have a fantastic weekend!
