Etsy Finds

My aunt told me about Etsy a couple weeks ago and I have spent many hours browsing the thousands of pages of homemade items, vintage finds, and a whole lot of other cute stuff. Here are some of my favorite Etsy sellers and items so far:

*Petite House*

She doesnt have anything up for sale right now, but I love looking through the sold items at all of the adorable little houses! Hopefully there will be some for sale in time for Christmas...

*City of Dionnne*

These drawings are so beautiful! Some of the illustrations are then gone over with hand stitching.

*Greenbriar*

I am in love with these little Moss Terrariums.

Greenbriar definately makes some of the cutest ones I've seen!

These are just a few of my favorite Etsy finds, but I will be posting more very soon!

A Sunrise a Day

One morning a couple days ago, I looked out my window and saw that the sky looked kind of orange.

I walked outside and saw the sun as it was just starting to come over the horizon.

I cant even remember the last time I was up to see the sun rise.

Its one of those things you forget happens everyday.

"Thats how God's word vaults across the skies from sunrise to sunset; melting ice, scorching deserts, warming hearts to faith."

-Psalm 19:6 (the Message)

Quotes

“When you come to the edge of all the light you know and are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing one of two things will happen: there will be something solid to stand on or you will learn to fly.”

~Barbara J. Winter

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness,
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people,
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry,
For poise, walk with the knowledge that you will never walk alone.
People, even more than things, have to be
restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, redeemed.
Never throw anyone out.

~Audrey Hepburn
