Well…it’s been longer than I thought.
Time has been absolutely FLYING.
Life changes include: moving to madison, buying a home, adding another dog to our crazy lives.
Penny needed a friend, OKAY?!
Half the time, they’re friends.
The other half, Penny hates Oscar.

We’re still working on the friendship.
Since I’m an etsy junkie, and I want you to be too, I’m going to feature an Etsy shop owner each week. If you’re unfamiliar with Etsy, it’s an online marketplace of all things handmade. Go ahead. Click on this. Prepare to browse all. night. long.
Today I’m sharing the work of Nikki Ross, owner of N(star)Studio. I am in LOVE with these mugs I bought at a craft fair in Madison.
It looks like she doesn’t have any for sale in her shop, but she has a mug with a handle or I’m sure you could request a few of these as a custom order. She has the cutest nesting bowls that I might scoop on.
I encourage you to get on Etsy and explore what it has to offer to you. There is SO much talent out there and I value each item I buy handmade because I know how much time and creativity went into it. They’re one-of-a-kind too! Impress your friends, buy handmade.



Penny looks really……interesting….
Yay handmade!! Etsy is awesome and buying local is a fabulous way to support your community. Thanks so much for the shout out!!! I’m tickled that you love your cups and hope to see you around Madison soon!
OMG….I think Penny needs to visit Gabbi and get “gummi bears”
