Lucile's Kitchen ~ Etsy Shop

My wonderful girlfriend Cerys sent me this Etsy shop earlier this week, Lucile's Kitchen. Lucile is a beautiful French illustrator who paints watercolors and sketches of pretty food prints. I am so in love with her pretty images.

back to blogging

I know that these past few months I have been a bit sporadic with keeping up the Urban Flip Flop blogging. Recently I think, where did all my time go! I wake up in the morning and have 101 things I want to get accomplished and then I go to bed with a list of 102 things plus a few more that I still want to get done. Today when it was chilly {finally} and got oh so dark out way too early I thought "tonight I'm going to organize my life and accomplish stuff!". I came home, made dinner and sat down at the dining room table ready to organize, {glass of vino by my side}.

I started blogging as an outpost of my thoughts while in DC. A way to write about my transition from moving to my home of 7 years, Washington DC to Florida, this new questionable state. I thought that blogging would be a great way to post stories about my struggle to find a job, interviewing, packing, moving, post things I love that I couldn't share with my friends over drinks and all my experiences of my life with beau here in Fort Lauderdale. It has been! However...

I started to get busy with my move, travel, work, etc. I have been blogging here and there. I have joined a lot of organizations in Fort Lauderdale. I have been forced to put myself out there, build a new life here, meet new people, do a lot of things and next thing I know Florida just took time from me and my blogging. By the time I went to sit at my computer.....the day was over...and I was falling asleep.

So here I am. I am back and going to be blogging. I am scheduling blogging into my life. I love writing my thoughts, sharing my ideas, parties, travels, dreams, everything. If I have 1 or 100 or more followers, well oh well, doesn't matter. Becca the Blogger. From my urban life to wearing flip flops and the interesting things I have found in between, I will be back writing about them and everything else.

The picture above, hhhmm, I think it might look nice in our room. I hope beau likes it because it explains what I love and what I've been spending my time on....reading blogs and getting caught up all the wonderful things that are out there to read!

So that being said.... here I am back to blogging....

The Wonderful World of Etsy

My sisters gave me a few cute treats from Etsy this year for Christmas.I love the new shopping option (malls, online,Etsy!). In the past few months I have found myself browsing online during breakfast, during the day, before bed....at Etsy! The wonderful world of Etsy, it is a great place to explore! Shopping on Etsy is a fun site to shop on because you never know what you will find. Cute items handmade and vintage finds, all organized by stores, its a fun way to find treasures. From everything from handmade stationary, jewelry to party decor, I have found many treasures. Here are a few of my favorite sites below.

Orange Beautiful has a great shop. I bought this cute Candy print to frame in my kitchen.

They also have a wonderful blog full of lovely designs.

How fun is this necklace? A gold Ritz Cracker necklace!

This was a gift from one sister to another this year. Shop the Peapod Treasure Store.

I can't wait for my crown pillow to come in! I bought this from Sa-Sea Boutique.

Statsh Stlyle has fun vintage decorations. I got the pink balls from Jenn's baby shower from Stash Style.

I love the note cards I received last week from Charity. She bought them on Small Screen Design. Super cute!

Please feel free to share your deals!
