Hi my friends! I'm so happy to announce that I am doing a collaboration with Novica The Impact Marketplace. As you may already know I love to support small business and handmade artisans. You also know I love making an impact. I was given a gift card to help spread the word and I cannot wait to share with you all as soon as I receive my beautiful artisan piece. Every piece is handmade with love and pride for these artisans and every piece tells a bit of a story of their ancestral and cultural heritage. ALL ABOUT NOVICA Novica has a mission to spread happiness by improving the life of an artisan and their community by showcasing their handmade art. Novica provides a customer with beautiful gifts from jewelry to housewares and more that can be purchased from the world over, and in turn this global selling and purchasing of handmade art uplifts, empowers, and improves the way of life for the artisan and their community.

The Fairy Garden

There's something enchanting about a mini fairy garden. I have always loved the world of miniatures for as long as I could remember and since my grandfather built me a real dollhouse at around the age of ten or so. It is a grand dollhouse and I still have it intact like the day he presented me with it. It currently, however, resides in my basement still wrapped in plastic wrap from a move sixteen years ago! I am going to revive it this year, and that will be a series of stories for another time. Stunning details, moving windows can't wait to work on this and show you! What I Bought So back to a smaller level, I bought some oddball succulents and a couple of mini fairy garden pieces at my local garden shop. The cost involved, just under $20.00, each succulent was $1.25 (the three hens n chicks were sold as a trio) and the fairy pieces were $14.99.(the set had two mini chairs, 1 fairy, 1 trellis, 1 cobblestone walkway, and 1 fairy house) not great but cute enough.
