TREASURY - BRIGHTER DAYS

This pretty grouping includes my rhinestone leaf necklace (center row, second from left), along with a bunch of other pretty and fun neon items.

NEW - CUSTOM ART PRINTS

I have had so many inquiries lately about custom art prints! I love finding out what is special to someone and helping create the perfect piece for their home. So I have created an etsy listing so that you can order a custom art print! You'll receive 2 art prints with this purchase, available in 3 sizes (5x7, 8x10, 0r 11x14). See the listing for details and examples of custom prints I have done. Click here to see the etsy listing.

CUSTOM - MY SOUL LOVES PRINT

I love getting custom requests that inspire me. My dear friend, Angi, had a request for this certain piece of scripture and a general direction of the look she wanted to frame for her home. She and her new hubs, Griffin, are friends of ours and happened to get married in my parents' beautiful backyard. Here they are...

Isn't she just stunning? I mean, Griffin looks good...but ANGI LOOKS INCREDIBLE. Ok, back to the print...she sent me her ideas and I got to work. First, a custom floral illustration. Because Angi loves nature and animals and flowers and all. So I wanted it to be pretty and organic.

And then I set out on a handwritten, casual script. After a few tries in my sketchbook, I had what I wanted. Here it is, the finished print...

This is now available in the shop as a 5x7, 8x10, or 11x14 print. This would make such a lovely gift for the one you love. Or it would be a perfect statement piece at your wedding. Or if you are a bridesmaid, buy it for your bride. Or as a shower gift! The possibilities are endless.

Happy Friday, friends!

NEW - A YEAR OF ART PRINTS

I'm so excited about this. Eeeeek! It's been in my head for a while. And one night, I just sat down and started cranking it out. It has taken some revisions. And test prints. But here it is. A year of art prints.

12 art prints. 1 for each month. Switch these 5x7 prints out each month in your own frame or purchase one of mine with your set of art prints. This makes a wonderful gift for someone special in your life. Or you can purchase the set, keep some for yourself, and give some away.

Each print is a full color, 5x7 60 lb. matte photo cardstock print. The quality is beautiful. And each print depicts a lovely quote, picked to warm your heart and inspire your thoughts. Check the set out in my shop!

NEW - RETURN ADDRESS STAMPS

I've been working away at getting some return address stamps in the shop...and they are finally in! So go check them out in the shop!

SHE BELIEVED

"She believed she could. So she did."

I saw this quote on Pinterest a while ago and it struck a chord in me. And I have adopted it as my own. Never has my life been so full. Never have I had so many wonderful people, opportunities, tasks, and adventures before me.

In 2014, I wasted a lot of time fretting about what I could do and what I couldn't do. I had moments of despair when I looked at the forecast of the days before me. I felt like I was drowning in all the things "I had to do." I didn't have any confidence in my ability to work well, parent well, love well.

But today, on this first day of 2015, I look out with hope. I declare this year as one where I believe in myself. Today, I tell myself, "Caity, I believe in you. So get to it."

2015, I accept you as you are...a year ahead of challenges, blessings, promise, and hills both up and down.
