Yesterday I raved about my favorite bag from dianapantz, and today we are going to learn more about Diana and see some more lovely items from her shop!
Here we go:
I can’t live without: dark chocolate! bubble baths, our public library and hang-outs with my cute man friend.
My favorite Blogs are: just.lovely.things, smile and wave. more than anything, i love just lurking and linking to new blogs.
This is how I like to Relax: late night walks around the lake, riding my bicycle and being a tourist in my big city [Minneapolis!!]
My favorite Tv Shows: friends, Cosby show and bones.
My favorite materials to work with are: cotton, upcycled materials and cute toys out of felt.
My Hometown: snowy Minneapolis, Minnesota.
My favorite room in my house is: my craftroom! and really, wherever blake is [awwwww]
Because: i am happy with what surrounds me!
My favorite vacation was in: i drove the entire Oregon coast last spring - beautiful. and this past summer, we went to haiti for a month to help rebuild - i absolutely came back a different human.
My guilty pleasure is: lurking old boyfriends and listening to the backstreet boys ALL THE TIME!
Onesies!!
In one word I am: human.
My favorite fashion item is: my super-cute upcycled nautical bag that i made from old pillowcases.
I fear: bad financial planning [this is why i plan out all of my money and EVERY dollar]
This is what makes me smile: baseball. chocolate. hitting a roadblock, overcoming it and the pride that comes with succeeding, seeing people that love me, volunteering, the future.
You may not know this about me: i am left-handed and wanted to look like tina turner when i was a little kid. and i love dinos, like really love dinosaurs!
My Worst Habit: biting my nails and explaining/reading/following directions.
I want to learn to: knit with needles, sew a zipper, maintain my bike without help
Favorite item I bought from another etsy shop is: a wedding photo for one of my best friends. [the shop doesn't exist anymore!]
My advice to other Etsy Sellers: have big dreams! plan ahead. do what you love. but be patient; this is a hard industry right now.
My typical day is: busy. i nanny part-time and i work for myself full-time. i am the queen of 4 page to-do lists.
I stay inspired by: taking breaks, lurking the internet, and thrifting
