I had lovely neighbours and I was very pleased with the reaction to my new goodies....  a big thank you to all my new customers!

Words To Live By..........

I have a little sneak peek today of some new goodies I will be taking along to The BrisStyle Indie Designers Market this Saturday, (by the way..... I am sooooo excited as this will be my debut at this very cool market)!

Recently I have been thinking about how I am very encouraged and inspired by words, and sometimes seeing a particular word can be just what you need. I was also wondering how to come up with something that may appeal also to the men in our lives - I played around and came up with these shabby, rustic style word blocks and also some rustic crosses.  I think they will look great on your desk, grouped on a bookshelf, or even on the window sill by the kitchen sink!






Another bonus is their affordability.........
so there are no excuses not to treat yourself or to encourage someone special! 
I think they would make great little Father's Day gifts as well.....
You can purchase online at my Etsy or Made It stores.



If you have a special word or saying you would like I will happily custom make them for you.
