Some Random Friday Finds

1 comments


I can hardly believe Friday has come and it's now Friday afternoon! Let me be honest, the last thing I need to be doing right now is browsing the blogosphere or posting an update ... a freelance article needs to be written, the floors need to be mopped, and laundry needs to be folded. But alas the little man is napping, so I'm taking a few minutes for myself before he wakes! Here are a few recent finds that I'm loving:

*Seeking design ideas for a baby shower? These images are sure to inspire.


*This Eva & Oli diaper bag, which I recently won via a Babyccino giveaway. I'm the girl who never wins anything, so I was ecstatic to have such great luck! It arrived today from France, and it's as spectacular as it looks in the picture. Thanks Eva & Oli and Babyccino!

*This darling clothing line, EmersonMade, (via A Room Somewhere) launching Aug. 10.




*This fabric paired with pale pink cording for our little girl's crib bedding. What color combos do you like for little girls?


*This post brought tears to my eyes.


*I received quite a bit of fresh basil in my organic produce co-op share this week, so we're enjoying loads of fresh pesto. Here's a great source for pesto four ways. I'm also loving browsing this site in general, so you can bet some of the recipes will show up in Monday Meal Planning (which I promise, will resume next week).


*And speaking of food, Cannelle et Vanille is a treasure trove of eye candy, with gorgeous photos and delectable recipes that will capture your attention the moment you visit their site. The most recent post gives some inspiring dishes for eggs, and since I have 3 dozen eggs fresh from my aunt's farm in the refrigerator, I'll likely put some to use!


*Another gorgeous food blog, Sunday Suppers will have you wishing you lived inside their perfectly serendipitous photos.


*Yes, it's random and completely irrelevant, but this image makes me wish I were half as glamorous.


* A sweet idea for a first-year baby book. Unfortunately, I'll be lucky enough to merely get my collection of my son's first couple years simply printed before our little girl arrives.


*And last, a book I'm going to have to seriously consider purchasing, especially since I've been thinking about ways I can be more intentional in teaching my little guy from day to day. Recommended by Bloom, if this is anything like the reading last recommendation I took them up on, it will surely be good. How are you intentional about teaching your young children at home?


Enjoy your weekend! Meal-Planning Monday will resume on Monday ... thanks Crissy for letting me know the menus are actually helpful!


For Your Friday

Some fun finds for your Friday. Happy almost weekend!

Mother's Day is coming up. If your hubbie needs a hint, direct him to this lovely necklace from Tiny Belles Boutique.


I can't take credit for discovering this little gem of a gift shop (I found it while browsing over at DesignMom), but I'm sure glad I've found it! This lovely shop has delightful wares and some fabulous gift ideas for yourself or your moms for Mothers Day!



This recipe by Nourished Kitchen has me dreaming of a lazy Saturday morning! Now if only we didn't have to get up early to host a garage sale this Saturday ... alas it will have to wait till next week!

Love this genuine leather snakeskin cuff! Head over to Grosgrain and enter a comment on thispost for your chance to win the cuff designed by Slightly Askew.

Dana over at MADE is making me crazy! She has so many adorable projects and tutorials, my sewing list is getting out of control! (Really, how does she find the time?) This scarf is on the list now too!

Classic wooden blocks are nearly impossible to come by. These charming alphabet blocks byBrook Farm General Store will be an enduring toy for your little one or a treasured shower gift for a friend's tiny tot.


I recently discovered A Country Farmhouse. This blog is like a breath of fresh air. I love perusing her beautiful images, her delightful home and her simple lifestyle.





Enjoy your Friday!!

Hello lovely Moms Dish readers! I fully intended to post some fun Friday Finds yesterday, but I got wrapped up making a baby shower gift for my dear college friend (I'll post on the gift later). So you'll have to forgive my tardiness, but here are a few fun finds for your Friday ... err, Saturday!

It's been raining here since last night, so this photo is a little taste of spring beauty, right when I need it. Image by Creature Comforts.


Love this Mia Bossi diaper bag, available at Gap Maternity online. Yes, it's a bit pricey, but the diaper bag is the one item that goes everywhere and carries all.

Crushing on these darling threads from London-based Hucklebones. A bit remiss that they don't design little boys' clothes.


Checked out ThredUP? This site takes the clothes swap concept to a national level! Select a box of clothing your child will love, and pay shipping to have it delivered to you. Pack your kiddos outgrown duds, and when someone selects it, ship it for free.

This deserves a post all its own, but to pique your interest until then, check out Little Dresses for Africa. This incredible non-profit delivers handmade pillowcase dresses to orphan girls in central Africa. When they deliver the dresses, it also gives them opportunity to hold camps for the girls and to share the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Visit the site to see how you can become involved.

The Ladies over at Bloom are hosting a Le Creuset giveaway. Click here to enter.
