Ahhhh...spring.

I think spring might really be here. Pussy willows, daffodils, blue sky. I have to say that growing up in California I did not experience the same transformative spring that occurs here in the Midwest. Your whole life really changes! The kids play outside all day, the air smells different, beauty surrounds you. God is good.

Today we took Felicity on her first bike ride. Nothing cuter than a one year old with a huge bike helmet.



I have also been vintage linen hunting this week. I was inspired by this quilt by Philigry. I have listed a few of them in my shop, and I will have more to come later this week. I found some really pretty ones!

Buttons


I love buttons. I love vintage buttons. There is a lady at the farmer's market who sells her garage sale finds. She has jars and jars of buttons. She has a sign that changes upon her mood. It either says "Everything 50% off!" or "Everything negotiable." *ahem* Her hair also changes every day. However, do not be fooled-this lady is a smooth sales person. She knows what she is doing. She always persuades me to put in just a few more buttons, and she always gets me to spend more than I know I should.

These are some of my favorites in the picture above. I love the bright yellow flower towards the right, the red ones- I love red, and the bright blue floral one screams vintage to me.
