Am I getting too old for them? Are the sufficiently sophisticated? And then I stumble on Mixbaby's shop in my favorite's list, and all of a sudden want to star in my own retro photo shoot.<br />

Have I mentioned that I'm subscribed to hundreds of blogs? I am. I don't have time to read all of them anymore, so I pick and choose, but I'd say there's a good few dozen that I read on a regular basis. Anyway, the reason I mention this is because I noticed that a lot of bloggers make collages of outfits, color-themed housewares, or just pretty pictures. They always catch my eye, but I figured I'd have to know how to use Photoshop or something to make something similar.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Well, today as I was ripping out inspirational outfits from a catalog, I thought about how it's such a shame that all those gorgeous catalog clippings end up piled on my coffee table with no one to share them with (except my husband and cats...). And also, how I don't really like piles of paper scraps around. It would be so much nicer to digitalize them and share them with the world. If only I had such a way...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
All of a sudden (that is, after a quick google search), I realized that Picasa, a free online photo editing software that I use <i>all</i> <i>the time</i>, can make collages! The default mode is to make a little collage that looks like a pile of photographs, but there is a little drop down menu where you can make crisp organized photo grids, or all sorts of other stuff. Since I only had four photos, here's my first go at it:<br />

I want to support something good -- and maybe that's why I end up looking at <a href="http://www.etsy.com/">Etsy</a> so often -- because I like to support small businesses and encourage entrepreneurship. I like to feel like my money is voting for something positive. But charities are good too, and sometimes I forget that when I'm feeling like shopping, I can spend my money at a charity.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I learned about <a href="http://www.tinyhandsinternational.org/">Tiny Hands International</a> from a do-good crafty blog, <a href="http://www.tiggyshouse.com/p/about.html">Tiggy's House</a>. They're focused on helping orphaned children, sex-trafficking victims, and the empowerment of women. Their current goal is to build a self-sustaining "dream center" in Nepal, where they can have homes for a few families, as well as a school, medical center, and dental center that can serve the surrounding community. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If it sounds like the kind of thing you'd like to support, you can always just <a href="https://www.tinyhandsinternational.org/donate">donate</a> outright. But if you're a more shopping-inclined individual, you can always take a look at the shop and (added bonus) know that your money is going to help support something a little bigger than usual. In case you're wondering, 100% of the proceeds go to support the charity, and all products are made handmade locally in Nepal. Here are some of my favorites:</div>

Loving this jewelry for beachy summers. Happy shopping!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6509255320779403812.post-84114519983535880822012-04-18T18:15:00.002-07:002012-04-26T16:33:45.069-07:00SavorI've spent most of the past year immersed in graduate school, but I have successfully come out the other side and once again feel like blogging -- the best news is, I have a lot of fun stuff to share after so much time gathering new favorites.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Looking back into the depths of my favorites list, I found <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/savor?ref=seller_info">savor</a>, a little skin care shop that I've admired, but never ordered from before. I quickly corrected that by ordering a set (or two...) of her <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/60646562/body-mist-sample-fragrance-pack-of-five">body mist samples</a>. I'm such a huge fragrance fan -- candles, incense, body sprays, perfumes -- that I really couldn't pass it by.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The more I looked around savor, the more I learned about the shop owner, Lisa. She was featured in Etsy's <a href="http://www.etsy.com/blog/en/2011/quit-your-day-job-savor/">Quit Your Day Job</a> series last year and talks about how she came to start up her shop and become the productive work-at-home mommy she is today. In her interview, she also mentions her <a href="https://www.facebook.com/savorsoap">Facebook page</a>, where she advertises her (bi)annual soap sales. "Like" savor, and you'll be alerted when her sales take place! In the mean time, here are some products to tantalize you:</div>

I'm very much in love with <a href="http://www.sweetpaulmag-digital.com/">Sweet Paul Magazine</a>. As you can see, the photography is gorgeous, which is enough to keep me a dedicated reader. The best part is that it's free -- and online -- for instant gratification. They just published the Summer 2011 issue, which marks the 5th issue. Don't forget to check out the back issues, too!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6509255320779403812.post-10366161449814497732011-05-23T09:00:00.000-07:002012-04-26T16:34:19.687-07:00Treasury: Citrus GreenI am very much in love with this color (and have been for several years now).<br />

PhamReading through my blogs this evening I came across a photo by <a href="http://designsbyapham.weebly.com/about.html">Amanda Pham</a>, a fourteen-year-old aspiring fashion designer and photographer.

I'm especially happy when I can look back at a long-ago favorite and see that the shop is still thriving and growing. I rediscovered <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/ArmoursansAnguish?ref=pr_shop_more">Amour sans Anguish</a>, who creates gorgeous, unique clothing. An impossible task, but I've collected a few of my favorites into this post. It's worth taking a stroll through <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/ArmoursansAnguish/sold">her sold orders</a>, as well, because she does custom orders -- it's also just a pretty stroll.<br />

I imagine packing her little love notes all around the house for my husband to find. Wish I had known about these for Valentine's day...ah well, I can consider it early anniversary planning.<br />

It's the only deodorant I've really looked forward to using, and I was sad when it finally was all used up. Since my Spa Therapy stick ran out, I've tried a few other types of deodorant, but I've been left disappointed.<br />
<br />
For those who haven't yet seen Spa Therapy, I'm happy to share with you some of the fabulous things you can get in the shop. Note: if you place an order in the next 10 days and use the coupon code <i>snooted10</i>, you can <i>save 10% on your purchase</i>!<br />
<br />
Also, Mother's Day draws near, and I promise you can't go wrong with these items. I bet she'd even forgive you if it's a little late.<br />

It's on my 78th page of favorites. Yes, I spend that much time trolling Etsy. I think I originally favorited this shop for a long-ago trend of glossy pendants, but looking back at her shop I discovered how gorgeous her photography is when it stands on its own two feet.<br />
<br />
If you find something you love, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/people/littleputbooks">littleputbooks</a> made a special coupon code for my readers. Lovely! You can save 25% on your non-jewelry purchases by using the special coupon code <i>snoot25 </i>when you make your purchase. I'm thinking you'll want to take advantage of this.<br />
