a yummy project

Perfect!

Perfect for my husband who is a burger & fry freak! Honestly.

When we were dating, I'd slave over a beautiful meal for him ... you know, in those days of reeling 'em in. And do you know what he had the nerve to do? Go to McDonald's for a side of fries to add to the meal! Humpf!

Anyway.

I figured I was safe posting this here, instead of my personal blog ... plus it's too good not to share!

Aren't these creations amazing? The hubs birthday is right around the corner and you better believe he'll be blowing candles off these little beauties! I may even throw in the real deal for good measure.

etsy love

And this my friends is why I love Etsy!

This awesome felt creation is from Hine ... and for any of you crafty crafters out there ... please check out this animation of her work ... holy wow!

worth checking out!

There are a couple new {to me} websites in town that are worth checking out ...

Made By Hand. By ME. is all about handmade items {think Etsy}, featuring some pretty fun treasures.

And then there's White Elephant Vintage, a Canadian shop with all sorts of fun vintage items. I myself am the owner of a new {vintage} camera from their store! After reading about Holle & Jane, I'm convinced I'd have a blast shopping for goodies with them!

valentine's project {yummy!}

Yummy to look at, yummy to give and yummy to eat! I'm hoping to find some time to make these {pdf of pie box included}.

happy valentine's to me

{via black eiffel}

I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love ...

Oh what I wouldn't do to receive a valentine's like this {and while I'm at it ... to be a kid again too!}.

winter wedding favors

I love {in a strictly professional way of course} my graphic designer and her intern {Nellie & Katie, respectively}.

Brides.com contacted us for some winter wedding favor ideas they could feature.  We didn't have any in the store, so Katie started whipping some up {while Nellie was working hard on a project I will share later today}.  Nellie joined in when the other project was complete.

I love these favor ideas!  And I love how these creative minds work ... seems they can pull creative ideas out of their booties {can I say that?} and put something awesome together.  If it were me, I'd still be sitting at the drawing board.

Or ... I would've given the project to Nellie.  :)

i'm feelin' creative!

We at bwp, received this ...

saw this ...

and made this ...

Do you love the Snow & Graham wrap we used?  And look very carefully, you'll see a little mug 'tag.'  In looking at the photo, the bag may appear larger than it really is.  It measures about 5ish inches tall, by 4ish wide ... and it's absolutely cute as a button!

I'm lovin' all these designs too!  My creative juices are flowin' ...
