You know, when I’ve been perusing the interwebs long enough to find some new to-die-for Etsy shops. If you haven’t checked out this site you are doing yourself an injustice. There are so many neat shops out there and you’re supporting the locals. Win win I say. Anyway, on to the main show. This time it’s all about art.

Paint All Night Studios-great artwork at great prices. I love the colors in this print.

Bicycle Paintings-The name of the shop tells the story. I love this one.

Tim Irving’s Photography- I love how his prints look so vintage. This one just makes me happy.

The Rusty Cricket (I found this shop via Just Beachy) retro beach prints for a teeny tiny price. I have my eye on the one below.

My crafting/business partner Alexson and I have taken the leap into selling our handmade entertaining essentials online. We’ve been plotting this venture over cocktails for a long time and we’re really excited!

I’m sure we’ll be handmade moguls in a few short days. Go check us out and you can tell all of your friends that you knew us way back when!

Matt was my floating shelf hanger. He did a fine job!

We have these cute little alcoves in each of the bedrooms downstairs. This is the guest room. Isn’t it begging to be gussied up with some inexpensive art? We were happy to oblige.

Here’s the after…

This was a super easy and inexpensive update. The frames were gifts from our wedding, and I had the shelf in storage from my college apartment.

The A was bought on our Charleston trip for about $4 at The Market. I just bought the Keep Calm and Carry On from Etsy. That’s it! It took us about 20 minutes total to hang the shelf and put up the pictures.
