Simply Shiny Life

My friend Brandi, from Catie’s Blue, is sponsoring another Color Palette Blog Walk, from February 28th through March 4th. Participants will be  blogging and creating new color palettes around things that inspire each of us. If you are like me, and love color too, you can follow along with the fun, as well as discover some new fabulous artisan blogs.

You can find more info at Brandi’s blog here

I’ll be blogging next Friday. Stay tuned.

I discovered this blog over the weekend. It is indeed lovely, in both word and image.

Spring is coming lufflies.  Each day brings it a bit closer. And for that I am very, very grateful.
Happy Valentines Day everyone,

I did.. or more accurately, they found me on Twitter.

Their site profile says “Fresh Finds, True Stories. We’re a daily product discovery site featuring products of great utility, style or invention that haven’t hit the bigtime yet.”

Sounds kind of interesting.

I’m already sick of winter and am ready for spring. In that spirit, I’ve created a new Collection on Artfire called I’m Ready for Spring. It’s full of lovely spring greens, sprouts and other spring like images. Doesn’t the bunny just make you happy?
