I needed and I mean really needed to find a reason to use these fantastic bottle ties with the also fantastic Father’s Day Subway Art stamp set from My Thoughts Exactly.  Since we are a dry household and don’t drink any type of alcohol but needed some type of glass long necked bottle, I found something even better – Root Beer!  Oh how I love high fructose corn syr….erm…I mean good quality sarsaparilla.

I love this stamp set!  The fonts are amazing.  Even though I didn’t use it in this project, I love the dotted line.  I bet I will be using it quite often.  Here is a look at the Father’s Day Subway Art stamp set:

 
Too kewl, huh?  I thought you would say that!  So many lovely uses.  Father’s day for dad and grandpa, birthdays for the same fellows.  You get the idea.

I have some other good news to share.  It is in celebration of Alyssa graduating from college today, she has so generously provided us with a code to give out for you hoppers!  Use code GRAD12 to save 12% on orders $25 or more!  Pick up a bundle and use the code to really save!  Some of them are the Father’s Day bundle, the Mom/Dad Subway Art bundle,  the Mom/Dad Super Bundle and the now infamous I Want it All bundle!  Hit the links for pricing.

So we've been asked about junk journals with divid So we've been asked about junk journals with dividers, and I thought... why not? We had some gorgeous colored paper sitting around and I figured let's see if anybody else wants one.

This is our 5x8 Junk Journal. Handmade right here in Kentucky with colorful paper, printed patterns, white pages, some cardstock, chipboard covers, and a chunky spiral coil. Every single one is a different mix, so no two are alike.

The best part? You can add chipboard tab dividers to organize your sections however you want. Available with or without dividers. Free shipping, always.

Right now it's only in our Etsy shop. Link in bio.

And since I'm already playing with colored paper again... we're seriously thinking about bringing it back for our ring binder and disc-bound planner inserts too. Would you want that? Tell me in the comments.

Foil lovers... we heard you. Since our foil equi Foil lovers... we heard you. 

Since our foil equipment went down, the messages and emails have not stopped. We know how much you love the look and honestly we love it too.

Replacing commercial foil equipment runs into the tens of thousands of dollars and, like a lot of small businesses right now, that's just not realistic. 

After months of testing with our existing setup, we think we found a way to bring foil back.

It's not mass factory perfect. Occasionally there may be a tiny spot where the foil doesn't pull 100%. Nothing obvious, nothing we wouldn't personally use, and nothing that doesn't meet our standards will ship.

But overall? We think it looks pretty gorgeous.

Before we officially bring foil back…

Would you still want it knowing it's handcrafted and not machine perfect? 

Tell me honestly in the comments. Your feedback will decide this one.

Good news: when everything’s written down, at least the chaos is organized.

Pay it. Check it off. Pretend you’re thriving.
