Seattle


We are in Seattle!  I snapped these photos on Saturday during our visit to Pike Place.  We are staying right on Pike Street and it has been fun to be so close to the sites.  We have visited the Space Needle and the Seattle Aquarium and are hoping to take a ferry ride tomorrow.  What a beautiful city this is!

Together Forever




I have been working on this design in my head for months, so I am very happy it's finally finished!  'Together forever' has special meaning to me, because in my church we believe that families can be together forever.  I think it would make a great wedding gift or would look nice framed with a collage of family photos.

I just added it to my shop today, and it can be customized in any color.

Project Nursery Feature





So happy to be featured on one of my favorite sites today, Project Nursery!

Still Winter

After a week of sunshine and spring temperatures we woke up to six inches of fresh snow.  I guess I shouldn't be surprised, that's Utah weather for you.  Sunny one day, blizzard the next.  In fact I think it snowed in May last year, which was a nice welcome for us as we moved from Hawaii.

The snow is very pretty though, I must say.  There were a bunch of birds outside Lily's window, so as she was pointing and yelling, "tweet tweet! tweet tweet!"  I grabbed my camera and snapped a photo of this little guy.  I think he's cute, plus he reminds me that spring could really be just around the corner.


I will hopefully be adding two new designs to the shop this week.  We'll see if I can find the time to finish them up!

Organizing Ideas

Call me a nerd, but sometimes I look at the Container Store for fun.  Just look at these great ideas I found!

A craft station!  If only I were this organized.


Is it the closet or the clothes I love?  Either way it looks great!


Whoa, this is cute!


Maybe I would like doing laundry more if I had a laundry room that looked like this.


Toy storage!  Seems like I struggle with this daily.


And I'm sure I could find a use for this leaning bookshelf.

Getting Bigger



My little Lily is growing up too fast. 

I have been thinking it would be fun to track her growth on a growth chart.  Here are some I found that I love, but it's such a tough decision!  Which would you choose?

So Sweet

Here's a tip - don't browse the Food + Drink section on Pinterest when you're hungry. That's what I did earlier and I was pretty much drooling. I came across some pretty amazing looking desserts, wouldn't any one of these be perfect for v-day?

Sugar Fresh Turns One


Wow, I can't believe it's been one whole year since I opened my shop!  I never would've dreamed my little hobby would grow into a business that I am truly proud of.   I can't tell you how grateful I feel to be able to do something I love.  It's been a fun year and I am excited to see where things will go from here.

Thank you for all of your support!

Art For Molly



This adorable baby is Molly Campbell.  She was born on November 23rd, 2010.  On Christmas Eve she was running a fever so her parents took her to the emergency room.  After hours of waiting and numerous tests, a parent's worst fear became a reality.  Molly was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, a cancer of the white blood cells that was rapidly filling her little body.  At only 28 days old her sweet life had barely begun.

Molly is two months old now and doing well.  She lives each day at the hospital, undergoing chemo therapy and countless other treatments. She is expected to remain at the hospital for the remainder of her first year of life, if not longer.

You can read more about her story and how to help here.  There are lots of people coming together for fund raising events for Molly.  An Etsy shop called Art For Molly was opened for her cause, and I have donated a design that will be sold exclusively in the shop.  This design was originally a custom order for a mother of twins.  I thought the saying was fitting and would be a good addition to Molly's shop.



To find out how you can help, visit Molly's website.  If you have an item you'd like to donate for the shop or if you want to purchase an item, you can visit the Art For Molly shop here.  The shop is stocked with handmade art, jewelry and baby items from other Etsy sellers.  All the proceeds from sales will be donated to Molly's fund.
