I absolutely love these hand-embroidered necklaces by MOSS. They are so intricate and lovely…it’s like wearing a tiny piece of art around your neck. And you can’t beat the price either. The bee necklace (above) is only $25! She also does gorgeous crocheted jewelry too, like the adorable little acorn and stylish assymetrical necklaces shown below. Be sure to check out her etsy shop. If you live around Portland, try to catch her at a craft fair – she’s got more beautiful things that aren’t yet online!

These full of character plush creatures from Noelle Doodle make the best gift for babies and kids! They’re super soft and cuddly (and many of them don’t have any choking hazards like buttons or small attached parts). Matilda has a couple and just loves them. And she freaks out every time we see the Noelle Doodle booth at craft fairs. She’s a big fan! She was pining hardcore for the alligator shown below. Click here to visit her etsy shop.
p.s. Plus, Noelle is super sweet and it’s always great to support such a nice crafter.

Here’s the thing, folks. Kara Suzanne and I go all the way back to middle school. She has always had the most beautiful voice. I loved when she would sing and play her guitar for us, or when we’d go to the middle school choir concerts and she had a solo. She’s amazing. Her last album, Aumsville, is stunning. If you haven’t heard it, you can check it out here. Now Kara is hard at work on her latest album, Parlor Walls, and she needs a little help. She has the opportunity to produce the album herself and retain full creative license. Something all artists dream of, right? So if you pre-order Parlor Walls, you’ll assist in the production of the album. It’ll make you feel good AND you’ll get a fabulous new set of music to listen to. She also offers other contribution packages should you wish to help out even more. You can hear some new demo tracks here. (I really like Doses.)
