.: One of the handmade vintage doilies that was hand-picked by me at my favorite antique barn, now available in my online shop ~ Milkweeds Photography and Art :.
I have been busy taking photographs, pouring beeswax ornaments, hand-sewing, creating wool felt mushroom pincushions, and searching my favorite antique barn for the most beautiful hand made table adornments in preparations for this special announcement!.: These wool felt, originally crafted milkweed pod ornaments were born out of our play in the fields around our home. The beauty of the milkweeds made their way into my heart and the naming of my shop!:.
Some of you have correctly guessed that I am opening a shop! I can't get anything by you girls! ( I *do* still have another surprise project to share in another post that will involve many of you!) I am thrilled to finally be able to announce this project, and hope that you will find inspiration and enjoyment in the debut of this shop that I have christened Milkweeds Photography and Art.
I am excited to present a diverse offering of original hand sewn wool-felt sculpture, hand poured beeswax ornaments, photo-inspiration cards, and favorite vintage finds.

I will continue to stock the shop in the coming weeks with new photographic inspiration cards, vintage embroidered table cloths and runners, new styles of beeswax ornaments and antique children's books.
.: Beeswax ornaments are for sale in the shop, excellent atop a pretty package! :.
I look forward to lovingly wrapping each of your gifts with natural papers, velvet and lace ribbons, and handmade tags. I look forward to sending some of the beauty I find and create your way! As my process is continuous, many of my offerings will be a first come first serve basis in limited runs. As a reader, you may recognize many of these handmade goods from my posts here.
.: I am very excited to share some of my photographs with you! A set including five inspiration cards are ready for purchase in the online shop Milkweeds Photography and Art :.
I appreciate your warm support and encouragement as I follow this dream of mine!
