Rachel's Holiday Craft Boutique

Had a great turn out at the Rachel's holiday craft boutique last saturday. There are going to be many fashionable women wearing honey lane products this fall/winter. Yippee!

Gold Rush Days

Back in August I went to Gold Rush Days in Oronoco, MN where there is over 1,000 acres of flea market. Here are some pics of the treasures. If you haven't had a chance to go, definitely take a day trip out there next year, I highly recommend it!

Circus! Circus!

So I've got it in my brain that I'm going to develop a series of Circus prints. When this will come to fruition - I'm not sure, but it will happen. I started doing some research this morning. See what's out there, see what's been done - that sort of thing. Here are some of the most interesting and inspiring. Enjoy!

{ it's a crewel world }

Last year my sister bought me a few adorable crewel kits at an estate sale and I had also purchased a few at some thrift stores. As I was sitting around doing a whole lot of nothing this past, dreary weekend I decided to bust them out and get to crewel-ing. Can't wait to show the end result. So far it's pretty easy to pick up and teach myself.

Cork Board / Inspiration

My inspiration board if full of great labels that I just can't toss, pretty illustrations, adorable cards, charming ornaments, as well as pics of me and my sis quite young. I love to look at all the goodies!

oldies but goodies

I was cleaning my office and came across this binder I had made during college. I did some sweet tracings with colored markers to pretty-up my boring black binder. Makes me want to experiment with that further.

{ cozumel }

I just got back from my first trip to mexico with my entire family. My mom, dad, sister, brother-in-law, aunt, uncle, husband, and myself ventured down to cozumel for one whole week. Unfortunately, I did get sick for a few days :/ But recovered and enjoyed the beautiful environment. Here are some of my favorite pics from the journey.

clutch onto the new year

I adore these beautiful clutches by red ruby rose. The graphic nature that is in me thinks this is the perfect evening bag, elegant yet exudes personality and unique style. You can find a variety of designs at { www.notonthehighstreet.com } A must see.
