New shop!

I have been so busy with the makeover of my new shop! This week has flown by & I have not really posted much! I have big plans for the new space.. here are a few pictures I took after I painted. I took the pics with my phone so they are not the best!

I painted a pretty lavendar with chalkboard accents! :)







I am waiting on my new light from Ikea. My old one fell at cracked so I had to quick find a replacement on ebay! It should be here today(fingers crossed) I also ordered some tissue paper poms to hang from the ceiling in hot pink & green) & I am picking up the cutest armoir this Saturday! I will be working on the shop all weekend setting it up.

I can't wait!! Hours for next week are set as Wed. 10-3, Thurs 10-5 & Sat. 10-5
I will be vending Saturdays at the dowtown Appleton Farmer's market all summer!

Have a great day! xo!

Summer time inspiration on Etsy!

It sure feels like summer here in Wisconsin today! I was glad that the sun stayed away this morning while I finished up the last of the painting at my new shop! Stay tuned.. opening date is set for June 15th (one week from Wed.)

Here are a few things that I am LOVING on etsy right now.. haha 2 of them I have for sale in my etsy shops, but I do LOVE them!!

Pretty little butterfly hair pin! Perfect for summer days! You can find it here in my handmade etsy shop...www.daintydaisies.etsy.com





& I just bought this pretty vintage dress from www.pocketvintage1.etsy.com I can't wait to get it. I think I am going to shorten it & make it a mini dress! (photo via Pocket vintage)



& I love LOVE these shoes.. but they are too small! I think I may need to find some like it!



I have this adorable clutch in my vintage etsy shop www.daisylovevintage.etsy.com!
I love it! It would be the perfect summer clutch. I have a collection of vintage clutches that will be for sale at my new brick & mortar shop(as well as vintage clothing too)!

Bedroom makeover!

If you remember awhile ago I did a bedroom makeover inspiration post. My bedroom was in major need of a makeover. I finally took some pics. My bedroom is the darkest room in the house & is hard to photograph because it is pretty small.

I am sooo happy with how it turned out! My husband even likes it. It finally feels like it fits the look of the rest of our house.

I started a vintage crewel collection.. these are just a few that I have found at local thrift stores all under $2. & my deer that I bought from the super talented Katie of skunkboy creatures! It was an early birthday present for me & I love it sooo much! :)




I bought this tapestry for our bed last year at urban outfitters & despite its not so good reviews. I have loved it & it washes really well. My dogs did happen to tear it recently but I think some cute handsewn patches will do the job! :)
The pillow is a brown vintage velvet that I found at my favorite antique mall.



This is a fun diplay piece I had at my shop.. but decided to use it at home. I purchased it at U.O. It holds all of my owl necklaces as well as some I made for myself.



I love this antique dresser & the how the wood tones pop with the new color! The dresser was a gift from my mother n law when she moved to Utah!



and the awful AWFUL before pic. It was a dreary rainy day so this photo is pretty bad but you get the idea right?



I am soo happy with the way this room turned out. I also have a huge armoir on the other side of the room with vintage suitcases on top but I couldn't get a good pic. of it. It is too big! :)

p.s. I get the keys to my new shop/studio today! Eeeek I can't wait!

Have a great day!
xo!
