cherry bloosoms + BBG

Took advantage of Saturday's beautiful weather and walked over to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Since we moved to Prospect Heights and expect to become frequent visitors of the garden we went ahead and signed up for a membership. It is so beautiful there right now. The cherry blossoms are in full bloom as well as the Japanese peony trees. G O R G E O U S ! It really is surreal when the wind blows and cherry blossom petals fall like snow...without the cold :) The peony's are also worth a visit. On display are the most luscious colors and the flowers are practically the size of your head.

 

 

 

This kid was happily playing away with little care if he fell into the fountain or not. Seriously had the biggest grin on his face! I love that his mom/babysitter/whoever just grabbed onto his pants and let him go at it. Ahhhh summer.

etsy

I have finally made the plunge into the etsy world and boy is it intimidating! There are so many beautiful products out there that I feel like whatever I put up will just make a little splash and get lost. That might be the case but here is to crossing off a goal for 2012.

Newly added to my etsy shop is a custom designed and letterpressed Valentine's day card. Please excuse the emptiness...photography is a bloody hard part of this whole process and I am not quite satisfied with my results. My goal is to have new items and updates weekly so please check in often!
