Wishin' and Hopin'


WISH – verb (used with object)

1.to want; desire; long for (usually fol. by an infinitive or a clause): I wish to travel. I wish that it were morning.
2.to desire (a person or thing) to be (as specified): to wish the problem settled.

I've been doing a bit of wishful thinking lately, and I bet you have too!

Just wanted to let you know that we can create a wish list just for you.  Let me know if you would like to get started.

P.S. - I'm great at dropping hints...

Paperweight

A stylish way to keep your desk a little tidier...

Playing Cards

Bring a little sass to your next Bunko game

Calendar

I have this and absolutely LOVE it!

Each month has a different border.
Imagine framing them for a wall grid when the year is over.

Lucite Tray

comes in small and large (small shown--and it's pretty large in my opinion)

This tray is great for serving appetizers and desserts or just as a holdall.

Also available in a lidded version to hide keys, jewelry, and the like.

Recipe Box

This is a perfect gift for a bride, bridemaids, or shower hostesses.
Even better - compile all the recipes for the recipient!

Luggage Tags

These make for easy bag identification in the endless stream of black bags at the luggage carousel.  


They also make great diaper bag tags.

Placemats


Imagine this with a single letter monogram (maybe navy with a red gingham border?) on an outdoor table.  
Irresistible for summer grill out nights!

These can be customized with your name, information, or even just a monogram.  Perfect for every gift-giving occasion.


Coasters

Great for teachers, secretaries, and anyone really

The Story

Well, I'm a teacher by day, and a nester by night.  Don't get the wrong idea, I'm not engaged or pregnant.  However, I love to nest.  My nesting isn't always pretty or perfect.  In fact, it's often messy and results in piles that drive others nuts.  But it's me.  My purse (and brain for that matter) often often overflows with paint chips, fabric swatches, and magazine clippings.  I once had a storage shed filled with things for "one-day"--as in "I'm sure I can find a spot for this pair of chairs in my house one day" or "This bird cage will look great on my mantle one day".

I think this is deeply rooted in the fact that I've secretly always dreamed of being an interior designer or a wedding planner.  However, like I mentioned earlier, I am a teacher, and as crazy as those little third graders are, I really do love my job.

Enter nesting (yes, it's all lower case).  This little home studio allows me to continue teaching while sharing my design and gift-giving love with others.  It's a perfect fit for me!
