Summertime reading

Every month, EtsyBloggers have a blog carnival. It seems that there's a topic or two each month about which we all blog. Pretty fun stuff. One of the topics this month was books we read over the summer. Well, my summer's been filled with wedding planning, and most of my reading has been related to that -- it's only four weeks away. I didn't have a favorite book, but I did find the latest one I read to be very helpful: it's I Do! I Do!: The Marriage Vow Workbook, designed to help me create inspiring marriage vows that will sustain my marriage now and in years to come. I got it on Amazon. Hopefully, it will help me do exactly what it say. Thanks for stopping by!

Patch: EtsyBloggers Featured August Seller

This month, I renewed my membership in the EtsyBloggers team. Every month we feature a team member on our blogs. This month, our featured member is Patch, who has three Etsy shops, one for her jewelry creations, one for vintage, and one for supplies.

Since I'm still new at this, I'm just going to show you some of my favorites among her listings:

FIrst, I just love these beautiful origami flowers from her supply shop



She also makes gorgeous jewelry, like these peridot earrings



And you can find wonderful vintage items from Thailand like this lovely matador jacket



Just click on any of the photos for more details or to visit her shop!
