I’m Drawn To…

Dogs. I love dogs. LOVE. I’m more of a big-dog-type-a-gal and my favorites are definitely Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, German Shepherds, Weimaraners…oh, who am I kidding. I really love too many doggies to list them all. There’s just something that makes me smile and get that warm and fuzzy feeling inside whenever I see dogs and so I thought I’d share some amazing artwork I found on Etsy featuring them. Enjoy…

I’m Drawn To…

Buttons. Colorful buttons. Buttons that are in fun shapes and sizes. Did you know that there are all sorts of uses for buttons other than just to keep your pants and shirts on? Use them in crafting (cards, scrapbooking, etc.), sew them on a bag or use them to spruce up an old sweater. I found tons of buttons just on Etsy alone. Imagine the possibilities…

I’m Drawn To…

I seem to go through phases of things that I’m obsessed with. Things I love. Things I’m drawn to. You too? So I figured, hey, why not do a weekly feature on it. It’ll allow me to feed the current fixation I have and you’ll be able to know what is going on in my crazy head (as if you wanted to know!). Here goes…

Recently I’ve been drawn to letters and numbers. Vintage ones, antique ones, new ones…letters and numbers. I like these…
