It might feel 22° out today …. But that doesn’t mean I can’t hope for the floral warmth of spring!

Looking forward to getting these in their little rustic wooden frames this week and getting them listed to our online store .

We made a little date trip today over to Franklin to visit the new store @hidden_treasures_franklin in Franklin, Indiana today. Gwen, the owner, and her friend Dawn were the absolutely sweetest. The vendors she has in her cozy building have such cute things! The little ai goat pics had me cracking up . I got the cutest little distressed blue washboard to hang up in our house. Thank you gals for the wonderful hospitality! We’ll be back 🥰

Like seriously, I just had to share this graphic here too because it's too cool (and to cute to keep to myself).. Hoping this makes it as our new "digital banner" in the gym.. but if it doesn't "wiggle" you'll at least be able to see it here

“I only see 1 font choice for the farmhouse tags…. Ummm can I see more options?”

Did you know that I hand-letter each wooden farmhouse tag? Yep! Not stencil, not vinyl, not engraved… all hand-lettered personally by yours truly! The tags are cut, painted, sanded, all by hand as well. These are truly a keepsake that you’ll have for years to come 🥰🥰

Working on 4 (the 4th isn’t in the pic…) custom watercolor pieces for customer orders that I had over the weekend… I truly am so thankful for the work that I get to do now as compared to 10 years ago…

Did you know that I used to be a “meter reader” ?? Someone that walked around and looked at electric meter numbers all day … in the heat, rain, storms, ice, snow, freezing rain… I give all the glory to Him because looking back it makes me even more grateful for the opportunities that He has provided ..

Gosh … my boss told me I HAD to get my booty to work today.. she didn’t care if I had to walk 2 miles in the snow uphill both ways… at least I had a couple personal escorts??

And my boss…. It’s me..

And I love being able to work and do what I do 😍😍

Pro tip: If you trim it a little bit, it will fit lovely in a 5x7 picture frame 🥰🥰
