Life in Snap Shots.



































Photos from my life. Starting from the top left, read it like a book.
❶ I'm in love with this man.
❷ Yoga, yoga, EVERYDAY - even when the pain is just TOO much - get on your mat and do 5 minutes worth of deep stretching. Use blankets, pillows, whatever you need to feel comfortable.
❸ My beautiful sister holding her daughter Allison.
❹ YOGA EVERY DAMN DAY!
❺ Beautiful day out at the lake.
❻ Packaging for orders! I am one blessed lady being able to work from home and create beautiful things to send out into the world! So thankful.
❼ From where I stand.
❽ Down dog is my go to pose to alleviate stress. When I get anxious or really stressed, I just fold forward, step back, and press my heals down. Hold for 5 deep inhales and exhales and then release.
❾ Me and the beautiful bride!
❿ Reunited with my lovely Lacey! She is my other half living in another city!
⓫ A photo of my sweet grandfather. He passed away not too long ago. What a great man he was.
⓬ Reverse warrior on a bridge. Whenever you lack confidence, or are losing hope, or maybe just have the blues - PRACTICE the warriors. They are called "warrior poses" for a reason. They help make you strong, confident, and joyful.
⓭ I really do love him so much.
⓮ Practice even when you ache.
⓯ My boyfriend bustin' a side crow.
⓰ KNITS!

Sending light & love to you,

New Creations: Cute and Cozy!

I've been filled with inspiration for knits to create for spring/summer. My head is full of bouncing ideas, but unfortunately it takes me 1-2 weeks to actually experiment and create what's in my head. I have a few new things and they are all very special to me. Creep out the new products here.

First up are the new and improved Nataliedee Bow Headbands. They are thicker, more durable, and bigger so they POP a little more. The cutest addition to any outfit.
This second item is a bow necklace. I've created it slightly larger than my original attempt. It's also set on a more delicate bronze chain. I especially love this in ocean!

One of my favorite new things are slippers! My feet are always cold, and now they are nice and cozy in the little mum slippers I've created!

And I am absolutely crazy about these mary janes. I wear these ones to sleep so I wake up with them on and don't have to step on the cold wooden floors.

 These marble ones are just adorable. I get bored with solid colors - these marble ones are a pastel lovers dream.

I hope you love these as much as I do.
I'll be creating more and posting each week!
