I think it’s something we’d all like to have happen. We all strive for this and a little reminder of it up on a wall is perfect. Perfect, indeed.

Kimberly Collignon, a Buffalo, New York based artist, sent me a little email sharing her work with me and I thought I’d pass them on to you. The images are simple and have just enough color to brighten your space. I love that she uses eco-friendly cardstock, too! Visit Ruthie Designs for more…

Jennifer over at Made by Girl had asked me to put together a little guest post for her. I was, of course, very honored and excited to do so. I adore her shop and her blog always makes me happy! The topic was “7 Things on My Wish List for 2009″ and, uh….let’s just say the hardest part was narrowing the list down to a manageable number. I ended up sticking to handmade because those are my favorite things. Some items may look familiar to you since I featured them on Mixed Plate in the past. Check out the post and Jennifer’s shop.
