New Year’s Resolution for 2017: I Choose Joy
Happy New Year! I am back from my blogging break during which time I spent countless hours photographing merchandise for Shelbee’s Shoppe, taking measurements, and loading the images online for your shopping pleasure! I also reformatted my entire website to accommodate my online shop. Please do stop by and see all the pretty things! I am still adding items every day, so please continue to check back. And do let me know what you think! For my very first post of the new year, I want to share a little story with you all. During the late morning of New Year’s Eve, I was out and about running some errands…

Happy Holidays and a Holiday Blogging Break
I want to wish you all a very happy holiday season! I hope your days are filled with family, love, and joy. I am going to take a short blogging break this next week or two during which time I will be working on reformatting my blog to accommodate Shelbee’s Shoppe online. So if you stop by during that time and it’s all a mess, please bear with me. I will get this thing up and running as soon as I can! Also, wish me luck…because this reformatting thing is for sure going to kick my butt! I will see you all in the new year! Be merry and bright!…

Japanese Algae and #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #4
In sticking with my #SpreadTheKindness theme, I need to share with you all my fabulous new necklace which I recently purchased at a vendor show where I had set up Shelbee’s Shoppe. My table was right across from a wonderful lady named Valerie who is the owner of Queen Thumb Creations. Valerie’s shop specializes in “handcrafted rustic decor of a wide variety ranging from live plant terrariums, faerie garden accessories, seasonal decor, and driftwood art”. She also cultivates these adorable Japanese algae balls and sells them in a variety of glass jars, some so tiny you can wear them as a pendant. I ended up purchasing one to wear around my…

LulaRoe Leggings and Link Up On the Edge #26
I completely missed last week’s Link Up On the Edge post. For that I apologize. I am slowly getting back on track and back into the swing of things. I have been busily photographing every single piece of merchandise available for sale in Shelbee’s Shoppe and will be reformatting my entire website next week to accommodate an online store. With the cold and snow upon us here in the North Country and my husband getting ready to leave for 2 months, I don’t plan on having very many vendor events or in-home parties again until Spring. So I need to get my online shop up and running! And on the…

A Photo Journal of My Recent Trip to Los Angeles
*This is an extremely photo-heavy post. And quite long in general. Feel free to scroll as slowly or as quickly as you’d like! Or skip altogether. I have been planning to write this post for the past week since I arrived back home from my trip to Los Angeles last weekend. After traveling all day last Sunday, I arrived home past midnight on Monday morning. I spent Monday catching up on collaborative blog posts that I had already committed to. Tuesday, I ran errands all day catching up on all of the other life things that had been neglected while I was away. And Wednesday night, an awful stomach bug…
