Thrift.

So since my house is filled with unwrapped presents, no one is allowed over for fear of snooping. Today, I took my sister to one of the cutest thrift stores in town and of course snapped some pics too!!

Stamp the night away.

I've been super busy today making new merch! Who knew my sister could market me so well at her work. She sported pair of my festive ornament earrings to work one night and ended up selling it a few hours later. When I went to drop off more I was overwhelmed by all the girls who wanted a pair. I had so much fun personalizing the muslin pages with my handmade stamp, I can't wait to pass them out!

Happy Holidays!

Christmas is officially in the air (seriously though, I can smell Christmas tree from outside our house). We had a rocky start when decorating when we realized we didn't have any tree lights, then found some, then found more that were half blown out. I'd like to think I got my mom's way of working things out! 

 Although this is not Boot's blog debut, she deserves more blog time, so here she is being adorbs in her cute new festive collar!

                   

You may not notice, but I was also very crafty with the fact that we had no ornament hanger thingy majigs. So I used bakers twine! (3 crafty points for Sara!)

No holiday would be complete without you and your boyfriend being ridiculously cheesy with your two cats! No fear there will be a much better one in "Winter" attire. (If you didn't know I live in Georgia.. It was 70 degrees today.. needless to say, I don't own winter clothes)

Instamemories : November

Another month gone, wow, time really does fly! November was great, and congrats to anyone who participated in Movember. November was filled with leaves, hot cocoa and a reminder that it's almost Christmas (and that I have a lot of stuff to get done!) So this month consisted of (from top left to bottom right) 1. Thrifting (and finding this adorable Tom Thumb typewriter) 2. Soaking up all the suns warmth while playing tag with my little sister during Thanksgiving break. 3. OhSo's first ever DIY! 4. Starbucks with friends. I hope you all have a very safe and stress-free holiday. 

The leaves are changing

The holidays and I have a very love-hate relationship. I love buying gifts, decorating, and visiting family. While absolutely hating traffic, waiting in lines, and family members not telling me what they want for Christmas (cough cough Mack). So I shall spend my days attempting to make gifts (Oh yea, did I tell you I'm doing a "Handmade Christmas")! Hopefully every gift will be handmade, except for select few, meaning all the men. 

Dinner Party : Hot Pot Style

So our amazing friends Matt and Claire (who live 2 hours away) came down for the holidays. It was so sweet of them to think of my lifestyle to bring an entirely vegetarian hot pot. I wasn't quite sure what to expect from the meal.  I was pleasantly surprised with the array of vegetables and different types of tofu, and hope that this tradition between friends continues.

Semi Studio Tour

 Every crafter has to have a space that is just for them, to be inspired, to work in or to just relax. When looking for houses I knew I had to have a studio (and so did Mack). It has been "in progress" since we moved in, and I'm sure I'll never be fully done with it. So here is a small glimpse at OhSo Studio!

                

(No visit to my studio is complete without Canary trying to get into stuff. )

P.S. - with the holidays getting closer and closer I may not be able to post as much (sad face) BUT! I will try to post more from my phone and take some pictures every now and then of the amazing inspiration that has been coming my way!
