Embroidered Pillow Case

Brooke's new pillowcase

 I have two twin nieces who just turned 3.  I hope they liked these.  I embroidered each with their name.

Once they are washed, they'll look really great. I love how embroidery thread pops.  It is made of rayon, instead of cotton, so they have a nice sheen.

We're also introducing our newest item at our Chicago Bench Etsy Shop.

Possibly my favorite part! One block of this tree.

Our Doug Fir Modern Rustic Lamp.  My husband made it from one piece of reclaimed Doug fir.  You can see the tree rings so clearly.  It's beautiful! You can check it out more here.

I hope everyone had a great weekend. What did you do?

Things I love...Belleza Mia on Etsy

I just recently came in contact with an Etsy shop, Belleza Mia.  I got a necklace from her which I just adore!

Just had to get this one~!

and with this stone!

You simply must check out her jewelry.  I got the green stone you see above instead of the ruby, and it just glows! I also got an A on the leaf.  She was so great to work with and  I will be back soon.   Here's the link to her shop:
