ANNIVERSARY SALE

This month is James and I's 6 year anniversary, on the 22nd, the Autumn Equinox.  We will be taking a mini vacation for the first time for our anniversary since we've been married, minus our two year late honeymoon stay we took (30 minutes away from our house).  Ha ha.  We usually just go get pizza at our favorite pizza joint every year.  So this year, I'm pretty stoked!   

We are having a week long sale to raise a bit of funds for our trip.  Our one car decided to break down on us this week (of course) , so we are needing to fix it up before we hit the road.  I really want to take a little trip without being stressed about finances the whole time, how fun would that be?  So, b/c of this, you get a deal!  I'm going to try to add new things to the shop throughout the week as well!  Enjoy the sale, and thank you in advance!

Use the code 'septlove' to get 30% off your entire order in any of our shops.  If you buy from more than one of our shops we will combine your shipping and refund you.  Please enter the code at checkout in the discount box, not in the notes to seller.  You should see your discount before you pay for it to work! 

ROOTS AND FEATHERS // SKYLINE FEVER // VIOLET BELLA 

Spontaneous River Walk

The other night, I opened the door as the sun was going down, there was a beautiful slight chill in the air and it just felt like a moment I wanted to embrace in nature.  So I told James I wanted to go walk down by the river.  So we went.  The sun was down within 30 minutes, so it was a quick one, but it was a magic time.  As the sun goes over the horizon you can hear the bugs chorus get louder and louder, things start to feel slightly exhilarating because you can't quite see everything in all of the tall bushes.  It was a refreshing 30 minutes spent taking in the beauty and feel of the oncoming night.  Mmmmmmmmmmm.... 

ROOTS AND FEATHERS HOME DECOR

I almost forgot to share these babies on the blog!  I made these a few weeks ago, and I'm just so in love with them.  There are only two left in the shop!  Time to make some more.  Most of them are inspired by the sea and the mermaid, and you can definitely tell.  That theme has still not left my mind.  I love creating new spins on old designs.  Like giving new life to something that has come and gone.  That is how I feel about the gypsy fringe wall hangings.  One of the first things I actually created for Roots and Feathers was the inspiration behind them.   

After several days of feeling very down, achy, and no luster for much in general, I'm glad to say my spark came back a bit the night before last.  I actually made some sketches for some new stuff, along with sketches of things I want to bring back that have been forgotten about in my shop.  It's not all that often I actually break out the sketchbook.  I should more often b/c its really inspiring when I do.  And it's pretty cool to see a pencil drawing of something come to life! 

Today, you will find me in the studio.  Have a good one! 

FREE // DIY INSPIRED

I just had to share this beautiful rendition of my Nature Letters DIY that Katelyn from Gypsy Moth Sol did.  I think it is absolutely beautiful, and she chose the perfect word for this project!  I sent her some Texas nature to use, and she mixed in some other beautiful things she already had in her own nature collection.  I'm just wild about it! 

While I'm talking about Katelyn, can I just dote on her for a minute?  Have you seen her blog?  She has such a beautiful soul on such a deep journey in life right now.  AND she makes amazing things!  I'm absolutely obsessed with her crystal infused lotion and her bath salts.  I highly recommend anything from her shop!   I'm excited to be going to see her for two days at the end of this month.  It will be my first time seeing her new house and I just can't wait!
