Eve here! I have been on such an amazing HandmadeLoves roll lately, constantly being inspired by the creativity and I can’t wait to share with you three of my favorite products in the last few months!

Happy Thursday! Eve here, filling in this week for our resident ‘Thoughtful Thursday” blogger, KaringVibes. I have been thinking a lot about what I would like to share with you all today, but instead of offering a tip, or a thought, I wanted to actually take my time to applaud each of you and remind you all to pat yourselves on the back.
We are complimented by others frequently. However, we forget to compliment ourselves, even though, we tend to be our harshest critics. So, I’m here to quote a little Justin Bieber and remind you to love yourself. Read More

Why did you turn to your handmade craft into a business?
I have always had a love for creating; whether painting, decorating, crafting, or sewing. After the arrival of my daughter, I quickly realized that there was a lack of clothing that fit my style – I adore crisp lines, bold accents, granny chic, and a lived-in feel.

Where to being?!
First & foremost, I’d like to thank all of our amazing vendors who took part in our first West Elm x Handmade Loves collaboration! We hope your time was as special as ours and that each of you had the day you’d hope for! To be honest, as I looked through photos from the event, I almost couldn’t believe it had happened!
With a commitment to quality and thoughtful design, David from SawAndMitre has always believed that there is a story and texture behind photographs that becomes lost when only viewed on a screen. Making “the finest frames for the finest photographs”, let David share with you a little two cents about his inspirations, challenges and success with his customers!
