Chocolate Beans on Etsy









These needle felted treasures are the work of chocolatebeans, a husband wife team I found on etsy the other day. Billy and Xuan make these wonderful little characters with such personality they made me smile when I first saw them. I knew I just had to share them, and as a bonus their shop name has one of my favorite words ("beans") in it!!! I know I know. It was meant to be :) . What a coincidence right?! I hope these photos can bring a smile to your face as well and that you're having a great week. I know I am. ;)
*Feel free to stop on by their shop and let them know what a great job they're doing!!

This weekend has been so much fun! I went with a friend to a museum, went to the fabric store with my mom and have enjoyed all of it.
My bird print also was featured in my first treasury thanks to shkolnik!!! Also my tiny little 3x3 was put up on the 3x3 blog!!!:) I am grinning right now just thinking about it.
I feel so amazed just at the innate beauty and kindness so many other human beings possess. This weekend was contest to that, hence the title of this post.
The music below is by Madeline a very talented singer that a friend of mine introduced me to...


Hope your weekend is just as good as mine!!

A Foxy Frenzy









Foxes have been on my mind lately dancing around making me draw them and search for them on etsy. This is the result: lots of images and wishes to get all the foxy things I love. Oh drat! I wish I had more money to spend on all these things!

Not to mention listening to way too much Fleet Foxes.... Hope your having a great weekend! All I can say is thank goodness midterms are over!:)
P.S. Click the images to see where I found the items!
