fff vol 42


Favorite finds from the last week: 


1. Etsy find of the week:


I've talked about it before.. I've been on a quest to find the perfect turquoise ring for many years. Specifically one that looks like the one my grandmother always wore. I've found a few that have come close, but none that captured the exact look. When I found this one I immediately fell in love with it. Its different than hers -  but I think in a good way. In a way that would make it mine, but still reminiscent of hers. Maybe I havent found one like hers because I'm not meant to.. I'm meant to have one of my own with a touch of her. If that is the case.. this ring fits the bill perfectly.


2. Blog of the week: 



I came across Mel, via Nicole and have been reading her blog ever since. It's a funny thing how bloggers seem to form little mini clicks and run in the same circles. I love my little circle of friends I've met and continue to meet. So head on over and say hi to Mel. She's awesome. She's sarcastic. She's creative. You'll love her!

3. Please can I move in?



If I ever find myself in Stockholm looking for a place to live. These apartments would be pretty high on my list. An old industrial building has been turned into beautiful apartments. They are even going to have a dog spa! Yes, please. I'll live there.


4. Get in my belly... 



These pumpkin cookies look absolutely delicious. I've never liked pumpkin pie, I think because the texture grosses me out. But pumpkin cookies or pumpkin doughnuts, yes I will eat any day of the week. I must try these!


5. Tee shirt of the week from Bark Decor



A wild catalope shirt. Do I need to say anything more?!


Today we are starting on a huge renovation project. Yes, I will document the process! Three days of full on hard core work, with a break to go to the farmer's market tomorrow of course. What are your weekend plans?

np! i love your little blog =) (and i entered your giveaway! i LOVE that ornament, and i would completely make it into a necklace!)

thanks - we already moved half of the bedroom last night, we'll see how far we can get today. i need to find time to make some more soaps at some point too =)

Have fun crafting!!
Oh, that ring is beautiful! I also love everything pumpkin flavored. :)
Yay! I love, love, love when I see my blog buddies becoming blog buddies and sharing mad love for each other. I smiled so big when I saw you picked Mel this week. You two, as you both know, are my faves. You are lovely, lovely, lovely ladies.

In other news, I think you should buy that turquoise ring. I love that your grandmother wore one and I love that you have been on a mission to find one that is reminiscent of hers. That's incredibly sweet... just like those cookies. They look awesome. Make them and then tell me how good they are, OK?
