Etsy Black Friday Deals

 I am a firm believer in the No-Christmas-Before-Thanksgiving rule.

Very.

Firm.

Rock solid.

But Black Friday is a great time to stock up on new Christmas decor at good prices.  So I am breaking my rule to share these Black Friday sales from my fellow Etsians.

 

I didn't even know I needed these for my baby before I saw this picture, but I obviously do.  They are the perfect hint of nostalgia.  DaintyDotsBoutique is offering 15% all orders throughout the day on Friday with coupon code Shop2016.  Plus exclusive offers through her Facebook page!

This simple card is so beautiful.  I can just imagine how special it would feel to receive a beautifully hand drawn card like this in the mail.  SalamanderFire is offering 10% off everything through Saturday with coupon code Take10.

 

 I can't really get enough Mason Jar decor.  These are perfect for Christmas!  Bonus?  The flowers are included!  CBCraftyCreations is offering $10 off orders from $50-$99 with code BlackFriday10 and $20 off purchases over $100 with code BlackFriday20.

I can picture this bib for any baby on their first Christmas.  It is gender neutral and would make a great gift for a Momma to be.  I love the modern, yet simple design with that slightly retro flair.  CalicoAndMoss brings so much love to her creations!  All ready to ship items are 20% off through January 1st.  They will also have free shipping through 12/9 on all orders over $100 with coupon code FreeShip100.

Rustic Fall

The fall weather tends to put me in the mood for a rustic home decor makeover.  Cool weather and autumn leaves are definitely on my mind!  Here are a few shops that really explore and take advantage of the changing seasons!
 

 

 Wow, this necklace is gorgeous!  Look at those copper and green tones!

 That cream color really sets the green off so well here!

 We are close to starting the Gathering season.  One more week and we'll be looking towards Thanksgiving.  So it's time to start thinking about new home decor!

 How fun is this swing?  I'm not sure you can see this picture and not want one!  I'm currently brainstorming on where we could hang one for Baby E.

The Etsy Pumpkin Patch

We took little Miss E. to the pumpkin patch a few weekends ago.  We ended up HOURS past nap time, but all had fun!  There wasn't a lot that an (almost) one year old can do, but she had a blast just people watching.  The Etsy shops this week are all celebrating fall in style!

 

 Needle felting has always fascinated me.  I love the smooth texture and beautiful colors in these pumpkins!

America!

Who watched the debates?  Regardless of who you are voting for, I think we can all agree that our country is in the forefront of everybody's minds for the next month.  Yes, we have a whole month left!  Let's check out some Etsy shops that are celebrating the USA.

Super cute!  Makes me wish for warm weather and the Fourth of July, but you could use the election as an excuse to rock it too!

Ok.  So I have totally ordered from Dell Cove Spices before!  They have awesome popcorn flavorings!  Next on my list is cocktail rimming sugar.  I need to plan a party as an excuse to order some!

 Isn't this wood beautiful.  Check out the other stain options in the link.  The options are gorgeous!

Back to School

The kids around Omaha are all heading back to school.  It's always fun to pick out one special thing to really get you excited about the first week back.

Isn't this backpack gorgeous?  You'd look super smart walking into your college classes with this one and sometimes you need all the help you can get!

This image is so calming.  Your to do list won't look nearly as daunting written inside this cover.

Sick Day

After our big 9 month milestone, poor Baby E got hit with a stomach virus!   She is (luckily) feeling better already, but we had a rough start to the week.

We needed some Immu Aid to keep Mom and Dad from getting sick and some ReVitalize to keep us awake during the day after being up all night!

My Dad always tells me to Stay Hydrated.  Sick?  Stay Hydrated.  Working out?  Stay Hydrated.  Plus we needed some positive vibes this week.

And now it's time to get back into the workout routine!  No rest...even for the sleep deprived.

Big Milestones

We hit a big milestone for Baby E!  She turned 9 months last week!  I was in the mood for celebrating this week because...hey...I kept a human being alive for 9 whole months (plus I spent the 9 previous months growing her)!

So...funny story.  My husband and I spent HOURS hand stenciling a pattern onto one of Baby E's nursery walls.  Hours.  It was terrible.  It looks amazing.  But I would never do it again.  Next time...one word.  Decals.

Twistmo

I would have loved to put some cute, colorful pom poms up in the corner of the nursery.  But after the whole stencil debacle, I decided not to push my luck.  These are adorable though.  Maybe it's not too late ;)

DecoPomPoms

I am determined, however, to get a photoshoot of the little lady in a tutu.  I didn't order one in time for Baby's 6 month shoot.  An impromptu 9 month shoot may be in order!  I love this one!

One last find!  Because the little ones can never be told enough!
