To continue my January theme on organizing and starting fresh, here are my finds on Etsy for this week. Enjoy!
I continue to “heart” these fabric storage bins in lieu of plastic and plan to get some for the baby’s room soon.

How about this wave bowl set by adventuresinclay for a jewelry catch-all on the dresser, in the kitchen, or bathroom?

This dry-erase wall calendar by simpleshapes makes the family plans clear and accessible in any room.

I thought it would be interesting to take a look at what posts garnered the most response in my first year of blogging. Thanks so much for reading, for encouraging me, and for all of the inspiration I receive from the blogging world!



Interesting that folks seems to be interested in a mix of the creative, the eco-friendly, and the simplifying - the 3 reasons I began this little project in the first place. Anything you’d like to see more of? Less of?

Leading up to Christmas, I’ll feature Etsy sellers and gifts in which proceeds benefit a particular cause or organization. I kicked off with Water4Christmas. Do you know of other gift ideas that benefit organizations doing good? Please let me know!

Came across this etsy shop, Water4Christmas, through the blog of a college friend of my hubby’s…

In this week of Thanksgiving, and this upcoming season of giving, I thought it appropriate to spread the word and give you some potential Christmas gift ideas. Most of us have more than we need. We take clean water for granted in a serious way in the U.S. Perhaps consider a gift that gives to those less fortunate. All proceeds from items sold on this shop go directly to building fresh water wells in Liberia, West Africa. Very cool.
