I wanted to post some of my favorite lightning/storm themed finds. We had crazy thunder and lightning storms all last night and through the morning which is not very common up here in the northwest! So, I found these great items in honor of nature’s fireworks display!

this great pendant is made by KittyLoco It is so simple but so fun and funky too!

Ok, so usually the office is about work… which is BORING! But it doesn’t hurt to jazz it up a bit with some fun accessories and furniture! Here are some of my favorites from some wonderful Etsy sellers!

This fun business card holder is made from polymer clay by Stonehouse Studio. I can’t think of a more fun way to keep your business cards close at hand!

… so this collection of wonderful kitchen accessories is especially exciting to me!

I found this amazing artist, glynnbebee, creating beautiful wood utensils on Etsy. They are beautiful and you can choose the wood he uses to make the utensil you order! I’m definitely going to be going to glynnbebee when I need to buy gifts for the 3 weddings my husband and I are going to this June!

These organic, eco friendly napkins from boxwoodgoods are equally exciting (yes … I get excited about napkins). The napkins are simple, elegant, and a great way to do your part in preserving our environment!

The final artist I would like to feature in my first kitchen favorites post is khphillips and his amazing pottery pieces. I especially love the queso pot but this olive oil decanter is very cool too!

A few of My Favorite Things - 1st Edition

Welcome to the first installment of my “My Favorite Things” Blogs. I plan to do these about every week so check back to see what new great items I have been working on in my own shop or have my eye on in other shops!

I have been working on some new designs and just listed two of them in my shop! I think they may be my two favorite so far! I wanted something vibrant and fun but still simple and clean. I came up with these chrysanthemum and berry bunch designs. They are warm and friendly and create the perfect notecard for any correspondence!

I have been looking for condiment bowls for a long time. My husband and I enjoy having little dishes for our dips and sauces when we sit down to dinner. I was so excited to find these wonderful hand made little “raindrop pots” in Antb’s shop

I was also extremely excited to find this great shop … a neighbor to my north … Kootsac. They make wonderful reusable food bags and grocery totes allowing you to conserve in style!
