i stumbled upon the most lovely handmade blog the other evening,
and my eyes were very happy.
dottie angel, a.k.a Tiff, is a Brit and mother of four. in her spare time, she makes
beautiful things that make me swoon.
beautiful things like these wall hangings:
according to her blog, these will be available in her shop next Thursday.
i really, really, really want one.

Tiff's home decor is just stunning and feminine as her handmade lovelies.
i love the mix of colors, patterns and fabrics she uses.
these spaces are just perfect.
i though this was pretty neat:
Tiff has challenged herself to buy only handcrafted or secondhand goods
for her house & her own closer for an entire year.
you can read more about the challenge here.
i am pondering joining the challenge... it is so inspiring!
for a start, i am definitely going to start thrifting more often.
perhaps i will start documenting my finds on here.

do you enjoy thrifting?
what are some of your most treasured finds?

i do love to go thrifting, but i often don't have the patience for it. hopefully soon though, d and i are going to dedicate an afternoon to thrifting to find some beautiful old frames that we can spruce up, to make our the posters covering our apartment walls look a little more professional and grownup!
hi friend! I love this blog, will go and follow this artist and I love that challenge. I pretty much follow that rule {buy lots of hand made} but I will have to try and do it a little more often!
I have so many treasured finds but my favorite is a probably my bookshelf which was an old chicken coop. It is shabby, white, perfect and best of all, it was free!
Thanks for the inspiration! I've become somewhat of a thrifting geek lately (more out of necessity than any other reason). I always love a good once-loved find though, and Tiff's decor is so cute.
Oh, I want to live in her home. Looks so homey and cosy!!
And what a great challenge! I'm tempted to join!
wow i love those quilted love notes... i want to leave work and go make one right now!
