Daniel David Designs Review


I got to review two adorable items from Daniel David Designs on etsy.

This cute store offers lots of hand sewn items like keychains and camera strap covers...which are two things I got to review:






The keychain is so cute!  This is great to hold your keys on your wrist while walking or shopping and it is adorable!

The camera strap cover is my favorite!! I have actually been wanting one of these for a while and this is one of the cutest ones I have seen!  I love the pattern and the flower detail!  The strap also has a little pocket on one side where you can put your lens cap or anything else that needs storing.  The cover makes the strap so cute and more comfortable on your neck!  Now my camera is styling!

Check out Daniel David Designs!

NC Pillow: Painted Butterfly Review


I discovered The Painted Butterfly on etsy and was impressed by the artwork presented in the shop.  The artist Holly paints handcrafted artwork made from upcycled materials.  Some of the things offered include custom pet portraits and state artwork.

I got to review a state artwork item...a NC State Pillow!!! 









The pillow is handpainted and features things and places found in North Carolina like: turkeys, Winston Salem, Greensboro, Cape Hatteras, Wilmington, a cardinal, dogwood flower, etc.

I love the look of this pillow and the creative feel.  Ya'll ought to know by now that I love anything that has to do with North Carolina and this pillow is ABSOLUTELY perfect!!!


Check out The Painted Butterfly, Holly is an amazing artist!!!

Romantic Bark Vase: Rustic Grove Designs Review

I discovered Rustic Grove Designs on etsy and absolutely fell in love with the rustic charm presented in their iems. 

Offering a wide array of items from wedding paper, brooch bouquets, rustic reception items, and designs for home and gifts

"I love to create with things from a passage in time. To wonder where it began, who held it first and with the soft heart of how is was given. When the past becomes part of the present it fulfills me."

 I had the chance to review the Personalized Birch Bark Vase:

So cute, she even included these adorable paper flowers!!!


The inside, so you can actually put water in there!


These would be great for a wedding or just for a sweet vase in your home.  I love the rustic woodsy feel of the vase and the simple design.  I am in love with this!!

Vase measures 8 inches tall by 3.5 inches wide.

Handmade By Hannah Review

I recently had the chance to review a knotted bracelet and hair tie from Handmade By Hannah on etsy:

They would also be super cute as a gift to your bridesmaids for helping you "tie the knot"

Lovely things of NC: For the Love of Maps Review

Ya'll know I love my state...so why not get another NC decor piece???

I stumbled across For the Love of Maps on etsy and fell in love with their State pride pieces

 These aren't just any state maps, inside the state outline there are places, things, and famous for's that coincide with the state.

Some of my favorites on the NC one:

Glorious Super Sugary Glazed Donuts
Grandfather's Mountain
A Ridge of Blue
where the Wright's first flew
the Real Mayberry
Vanderbilt's Humungous House

The descriptions are really cute and give a perfect overview of the beautiful state of North Carolina! 

 The prints come unframed, this was just an old frame I happened to have laying around that I sanded down a little to make it distressed...I love them together!



I am in love with this print and the simplicity of the design.  Perfect for any NC lover!

Seven Miles Per Second Card Review

I love cards.  I have a whole box full of them for every possible occasion.

I found the shop Seven Miles Per Second that offers super cute and original cards.  They also offer T-shirts!

 I received two sets of cards to review:

1. 2 pack Personalized North Carlina "roots" cards- These are adorable and absolutely perfect!  I love personalized note cards for thank you notes and these are perfect!  Included two envelopes that are transparent. 




 2. "I" card- This one is absolutely adorable!  The outside has a sprinkling of mixed capitalization "i's"  and the inside reads, "I only have eyes for you".  Can't wait to send this to the boyfriend! Included an envelope in what looks to be recycled brown paper.
