Artful Sentiments is moving to a new host... so if things look a bit wonky for the next few days, that is why! Please stop by again later in the week, and everything should be back to normal.

Happy Shopping!

It's that time of year... time to start thinking about holiday shopping. Over the last couple of years, I've been shopping more and more at all of the wonderful small businesses out there - they have so much to offer, and it's not the same old stuff you find in the mall.

To shopping easier, some of the fabulous indie bloggers are providing gift guides to help us on our quest for the perfect gift. Modish is one of the first to come out - you can see great gift ideas from Artful Sentiments and many other indie businesses in the Modish Holiday Gift Guide. Happy Shopping!

Keep Calm


The Mantra. You can only imagine how excited I was when Victoria (sfgirlbybay) posted about the new color she was having printed for the Keep Calm and Carry On posters - chartreuse! Of course I immediately ordered one to put in my workspace. It arrived a couple of weeks ago, and I finally got it to the frame shop yesterday - can't wait to get it back and hang it.

These posters are reproductions of a British WWII poster, and they're popping up all over the Internet - you can find whole shops with Keep Calm merchandise. I guess lots of us need that little reminder - I know I do, especially through the crazy holiday season!

Lovely day

Yesterday I had a lovely day with my family at my cousin Kristen's baby shower. We haven't had a new baby to celebrate in our family in a few years, so we're all very excited! My aunt and Kristen's best friend (our hostesses for the day) threw a beautiful party complete with a delicious fall lunch and yummy cupcakes, and I was honored to make the invitations and favors.

Now we're all looking forward to the arrival of Kristen and Craig's little one!
