Amazing how fast a year can come and go. When I started blogging a little over a year ago, I never realized how much it would change my life.
The fall before 2009 I had decided to start designing and sewing handbags, aprons, pincushion's, and more. I wanted to do something from home that would allow me to be with my family, but also give me a little extra income for things I wanted to do in our home. I started doing some research on the computer for things I would need to do in order to start my business and came upon a site called Etsy.
This was an amazing site to me...full of creative, talented women and their businesses...I felt an instant connection. Women just like me that loved to sew, design, paint...women who still wanted to be home with their families, but also to fulfill their dreams of creating. I started noticing on some of their Etsy sites a thing called...a blog.

I started noticing on some of their Etsy sites a thing called...a blog.
I had heard very little about blogs and wasn't even sure how to start one. I knew it was something like a journal and had a couple of friends who had blogs about their families. I for one very rarely wanted to use the computer, in fact most of my friends and family knew I was not very good about checking my e-mails...my thought " I just don't have time."
Little did I know that my world was about to open. Blogging was going to add many new friends, inspiring ideas and new possibilities to my life. How grateful I have been for the happiness it has given me in being able to share my thoughts, ideas and design with all of you. Thank you!
With unexpected news of moving last year, I decided to wait on opening my Etsy until after we had moved and settled. I wanted to be able to focus and give my energy into doing what I love...creating! I am happy to say, that I am hoping to open my Etsy late Spring and have lots of ideas I am excited to design.
I thought, what better way to celebrate my blog anniversary than to share my favorite things. I wanted to give you a little more insight about who I am. Here are just some of the things I love...
Pictures via~Google
A few of my favorite things...
2. Janet Hill...I love her beautiful paintings! I have 3 of her prints I am excited to frame and display in the dining room.
4. Chandeliers, you can never have too many!
5. I love when my toes are painted red...it just makes me happy!
6. Cake design fascinates me. I like to dabble in it, but would love to devote time to learning so much more.
7. The Beatles is my all time favorite band! I grew up listening to all their songs on the record player and still love their music.
8.I have a love for flowers. Peonies is just one of my favorites along with Dahlias, Hydrangeas and Gerber Daisy's!
11. My favorite food...this was a toss up between Chinese and New Mexican...being raised in NM, it won!
12. Blue Topaz is one of my favorite gems. It is gorgeous!
13. Carrie Raphael is my favorite Interior Designer. She is so inspiring and love her pops of color with soft pastels.
14. Cheesecake is my very favorite dessert...plain or topped with blueberry's! Yum!
15. I have a dream of going to France. Not necessarily to see Paris, but the countryside. Someday...
1. If you follow my blog or are now following, leave a second comment.
2. Post on my giveaway gives you a 3rd entry.
2. I get told all the time that I couldn't possibly have 5 kids and that I look like I am 25...I am turning 37 this year! I have been using Oil of Olay since I was in High School...proof that it works. ;)
3. My very favorite scent...Love Spell by Victoria Secrets! I never tire of it and everywhere I go I get compliments on how "good" I smell. It is after all my secret...
4. Winter time is the worst on my skin. I am constantly having to keep my feet moisturized. This foot scrubber is the best one I have ever used to keep your feet smooth! The foot balm is extra protection. Keep all your cuticles soft with almond oil...it is the best! It also helps your polish dry faster and smells good too!
5. For beauty and health tips, Allure is a great magazine!
6. Mentha Organics from Bath and Body. The greatest lip gloss e.v.e.r! A friend gave me some as a gift years ago and I have never gone to anything else. Keeps my lips soft and kissable...a nice peppermint taste!
2. Somerset Life...this is not only a beautiful book, it has so many great ideas to create!
3.I use my craft knife for all kinds of projects!
4.I always keep a little notebook in my purse...you never know when you will be inspired!
5.I treasure my fine tipped pens...Great for scrapbooking, photos to adding a fine detail in a drawing.
6.Love, love, love...did I say love? These are the best scissors for fabric! They are spring loaded so your hand won't get tired from cutting.
1. I don't drink coffee, but I do enjoy a hot cup of herbal tea every now and then. One of my favorites...True Blueberry! It has a great blueberry taste...so good!
2. You can never have enough great kitchen tools. The ones I go to all the time... my Kitchen Aid kitchen scissors and fruit/vegetable peeler.
4. I love a good chocolate! For me the darker the better! A little taste of Heaven with each bite of Godiva truffles.
A few of my favorite things...
1. Cellos...one of my favorite instruments. I used to play and miss it. I want to play again.
2. Janet Hill...I love her beautiful paintings! I have 3 of her prints I am excited to frame and display in the dining room.
3. My favorite color...turquoise! I love splashes of it here and there in my home, just puts a smile on my face.
4. Chandeliers, you can never have too many!
5. I love when my toes are painted red...it just makes me happy!
6. Cake design fascinates me. I like to dabble in it, but would love to devote time to learning so much more.
7. The Beatles is my all time favorite band! I grew up listening to all their songs on the record player and still love their music.
8.I have a love for flowers. Peonies is just one of my favorites along with Dahlias, Hydrangeas and Gerber Daisy's!
9. I love to drink ice cold water! I very rarely order anything else when we go out and it is what I always want at home.
10. Tanya Whelan is an amazing fabric designer! I have fallen in love with all her collections. Beautiful!
11. My favorite food...this was a toss up between Chinese and New Mexican...being raised in NM, it won!
12. Blue Topaz is one of my favorite gems. It is gorgeous!
13. Carrie Raphael is my favorite Interior Designer. She is so inspiring and love her pops of color with soft pastels.

Wow. Wow. wow. It was a hard choice...so many favorite things! I think I would have to choose the HOME...the little bird egg soaps sealed the deal. Such a nice hint of spring would really cheer up my guest bathroom.

Hi Victoria! congratulations on your first blog birthday! I would have sworn you had been blogging longer! And yes, I always thought you looked way too young to have 5 kids - not that you can't be young to have them, but you look so FRESH rather than tired like I would imagine 5 kids might make you be!!
ReplyDeleteI love Home, it's totally adorable, as is every package. thanks for the wonderful giveaways and chances to win!! xo

Victoria, my favorite ones are the Beauty and Home. The Beauty one reminds me to always take time for yourself because you are worth it! The Home one reminds me of my Grandma who loved birds and used to make her own pillowcases.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!

Glad we met and I look forward to another great year.

ReplyDeleteCongrats and Happy "blog" Anniversary!
I have really enjoyed following your blog - I don't post nearly as much as I should - you always inspire me to get to work on the unfinished projects that are sitting in the garage. Thanks for taking the time to share with all of us!

ReplyDeleteMy favorites are Beauty and Home! I like the DIY too, I'm just challenged in that area!
I am a follower as well!
ReplyDeleteI love the HOME giveaway (of course!). This is so generous of you!!

Sorry.....I meant "Tough" decision.
ReplyDeleteI'm a new follower and I love, love, love your blog! Home or Create would be my choices, although they are all spectacular!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day.
How difficult to choose! I was struggling between the Beauty one and the Home one....but I guess if I won, I would probably pick the HOME one! What a fantastic giveaway!!! :)

Victoria, this is one of the best ideas I've ever seen in a blog giveaway. It's incredibly generous of you--so many prizes! But what a great collection of things, and how cool that they're all some of your favorite things.
ReplyDeleteBlogging really is wonderful, isn't it? I'm surprised at how much it's changed my life, too, and my blog is pretty small. But it's been a big blessing in my life.
If I were going to pick one of these packages, I'd probably have to go for Home. But they're all good, and you're going to have some very happy winners here.
Happy Anniversary!
DIY - is the one for me. Thank you for the give away and CONGRATS on your anniversary!
ReplyDeleteI am now a follower and can't wait to see some of your finished projects.
Love it all! I would chose the Foodie or DIY! Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteLove your favorites!
I am a follower!
ReplyDeleteFOODIE, Baby! I was a fan of the home package too, but the Foodie package is great. Baking makes me eternally happy, so how could I not pick something that inspires me toward the kitchen more! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm following this sweet cute blog now too!! Goodie Foodie for me!
ReplyDeleteGirl! You know how to throw a giveaway! I love the packages. I was going to say the HOME package, but then I saw the spray nozzle and the Purdy in the DIY package, so I have to go with DIY!!
ReplyDeleteTotally a Whimsy follower!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway! I'll have to say Beauty...I'd LOVE a pick me up:). Have a great night Victoria!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! :)
ReplyDeleteSo hard to choose...but I think I'll go with creative.

ReplyDeleteThe "foodie" or "create" are right up my alley!
ReplyDeleteIt was a hard choice though :)
And I'm also a follower :)
ReplyDeleteI love them all, but I gotta say "Home"! Thank you for offering such a generous giveaway, Victoria!
