I don’t know if you are like me, but the only accessory I’ve been
carrying around for the last five years is sippy cups, diapers, and
snackies. Now that my youngest is two it seems like I’m really starting
to miss viva glam and pretty things that make me feel like a woman.
Hence the handbag guide!

 

    Ever since Karen from Simply June sent me the beautiful Nataliya
bag I decided it’s time to share the love of independent designed handbags. Below is only very small portion of simply exquisite
design and craftsmanship in the line of handmade handbags from around the globe!

  2. LOVELY bag selections! I’m drawn towards the sweet petite clutch styles but I live the life of a tote bag carrier. Alas, what a dilema!!

  6. As a mother, I know exactly what you mean about looking like a walking diaper bag. I am drooling over all of these fabulous hand bags that have been featured!

    Yay for bags and talented bag makers!

Shop Indie – Spring Reading

Good afternoon!

Spring is here and for some of you that means you are finishing up that long winters book you’ve been reading bundled up by the fire. If you are like me you are making your way to pick up the latest read for spring picnics.  Spring is also the first sign of grilling season which I absolutely adore. I truck my boys to our local library to check out some of the latest prints in cookbooks.  I have also been giving a lot of my attention to some books by Author, Joyce Meyer. I’ve found that reading is not only relaxing, but it also helps restore some of those brain cells that were sucked out during locked in months with the kiddos.

With that said this weeks Shop Indie find is a collection of must have accessories for your books. I stumbled upon these beautiful handmade Vintage Style Flower Bookmarks.Ericalev  More like artwork for your books, you simply lay the attached string in between pages to hold your spot. I think they would also be a luxurious adornment to a gift or as shop owner Erica mentions tie around a wine bottle to give away at your next dinner party. Ericalev2

Simply beautiful, stop by shop Ericalev to purchase one of these available in many different colors and textures.

 

Take time out to Indulge In Life this spring. Crack open a good book, relax in the great outdoors and breath in some fresh air.

Enjoy,

Vintage Body Spa
