Guest Post and Giveaway

So I have some fun things to share today! 
I have my first guest post to share over at my friend Kaytee's blog Eight. Go check it out
I talk about a few things I'm thankful for in honor of the holiday season and generally say my usual random/silly things and mention Justin Bieber more than once.
Definitely worth reading.


Also I'm doing a give away on her blog for one of my cowls!
Go enter

And today is my craft show! So many fun things going on this weekend.
I hope you have a good weekend as well. 
What are you up to?

finish each day and be done with it. you have done what you could. some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense ” -ralph waldo emerson

Keblusek Family

Meet the Keblusek family.
Here are a few photos from a recent photoshoot with them.
Such a very sweet family.
It's very apparent how much they love each other!
Isn't their little boy Hayden precious?




I'm booking family portrait sessions now! Great for Christmas cards for the upcoming holidays:)
Shoot me an email for more info.

See more pictures here.

Follow Up

So I have a few things to follow up on today. It's been so busy (as usual) that I've forgotten about updating you on some things!
So here we go:

The Hope Thrift charity event went marvelously! They were able to raise over $3,000 for The Skills Development Center! Thanks to everyone who went and shopped and supported.

Tori from Fashion, Trends and More won the giveaway for one of my handmade necklaces! Check out her cute outfit post featuring the necklace. Congratulations girl!

I'm getting ready to send out this past months percentage donation from commissions, the craft show and the shop to The A21 Campaign. In case you didn't know, a portion of all my sales go to supporting them with helping victims of human trafficking each month. It feels good to be able to send them some money and know that every little bit helps. Here's to making this months donation even bigger! ;)

I'm doing another craft show this Saturday! Want to come? Email me (by.leney@gmail.com) for more details.

The Limited grand opening went wonderfully on Friday! It was so neat getting to be a part of it and meeting some really cool people. Look for a Limited gift card giveaway soon and a post on the days events including a interview with the CEO!

Also this weekend I had a mini photoshoot with local photographer Kristin Partin and I cannot wait to see the pictures and share some with you! My friend Kaytee also helped and took some pictures of her own.

And I think that's all for now.
Hopefully this will be a productive week, there are a lot of things in the works and of course on top of that it's Christmas gift making/buying time! I could not be more excited.
Christmas is my favorite.

P.s. I recently broke down and got a Pinterest...... I couldn't help it. So follow me (see side bar)!
