I ♥ Fall!

I  love Fall! 

I love the coziness of

this time of year & I think 

that is when I fall in 

love with warm coffee drinks all over again. 

I used to be pretty set in my ways with coffee

but I have been trying new things. 

I work from home so many

days I don't even leave my house.. 

let alone get to the coffee shop.

I must say I do love 

our local coffee shops here in 

Oshkosh so it is a treat for me! :)

I came up with a new morning coffee

that tastes better then the average 

caramel cafe latte. 

I bring 1 1/2 cups of milk (I use skim)'

to a boil & add 3 heaping 

tablespoons of Maxwell House international

vanilla caramel latte mix!

So yummy! You could even 

add whip cream if you want!

It's my new Fall favorite treat! 

I also recently (as in yesterday)

finally got my hair cut! I went 

pretty short again &

I LOVE IT! 

I had to show off my new knit cowl

that I traded my friend Vanessa

of Baily Belle for &

my recently thrifted Fall

jumper (I beleive it was $1.99)

Happy Fall!!! 

I added a new show to my list so 

NEXT UP... The Artery holiday show

in Downtown Appleton Nov. 7th! 

(I will post more info. soon)

Fall finds!

I am kind of loving Fall 

right now with chilly

mornings & warm afternoons!

October may be one of my

very favorite months.

Speaking of Fall, I needed some

new seasonal clothing items.

I have decided to try & thrift

95% of my wardrobe. 

There are just some things

you shouldn't thrift.. you know! ;)

This shouldn't be hard since I do this 

anyway but after 

buying a new & kind of expensive dress,

wearing it once & having it rip that

was it! 

I have been so happy with my 

finds! Today I found

this sweater for $2.39, shoes (never worn) $2

& the vintage knit hat for $3.

I also bought a few dresses

& spent under $30 total. 

That new dress that I was 

talking about.. was $40 for

one dress!

I also recently bought 

new glasses as my prescription

changed while ago. 

I found these cute frames 

at Zenni optical online. 

I bought both pairs

for under $25. with 

shipping! 

Happy Fall friends! xo!

Hello September!

Hello September! :)

I have been a busy bee, working

on Fall inspired accessories!

I just finished a few new patchwork

rosie headbands. I only

have 6 (for now)

so you better get to the 

downtown Appleton 

market early this Saturday!

We are there from 8-12:30 on Oneida st. 

just off of College ave.

September is also our anniversary! dainty daisies

turns 14! Its hard to believe in 2001 

I started this as a little hobby, now 

turned full time business! 

Thank you all from

the bottom of my heart for continuing to

support me all of these years!

It's been an adventure &

I am so thankful for you all,

you allow me to do what I love everyday!

I get a little sappy thinking about 

all of the changes this lil' business 

of mine has been through..

with that being said ;) I just 

finished the sweetest 

batch of baby rosie 

headbands...

 

& some new hair bows/ bow ties

that I think will look great

with any Fall outfit! 

I love the change of seasons.

It's a time to reflect on the past seasons &

get re inspired! 

We will be at the market this Saturday!

Hope to see you there! xo! 

Fall is almost here!

It's hard to believe Fall is almost here!
