To get me into the swing of posting regularly, I think I'm going to start doing my "Friday Favorites" each week.  I have done one favorites entry previously, but I'd like to make it a regular occurrence around here.

In the spirit of the holiday season, this week's favorites are all going to be stocking stuffers!  Today, these are all going to be from Etsy, but in the future I will switch things up a bit!
























1. Pure Mint Vegan Lip Balm from LaConchitaNaturals ($3.99)
2. Lego Brick Crayons - Set of 5 from GaddyNipperCrayons ($2.50)
3. Metropolitan Tapestry Business Card Holder from sweetsophistication ($12.00)
4. 20 Hand Cup Upcycled Guitar Picks from CattitudeCreations ($6.00)

























1. Whipped Soaps - 4 two ounce whips from FairyBubbles ($14.00)
2. Makeup Brush Roll Organizer from asoftblackstar ($16.99)
3. Hand Knit iPod/iPhone Case from onaroll ($16.00)
4. Sterling Silver Family Necklace from StephieMC ($40.00)*

A Very Special Boy's 1st Birthday!

I cannot believe that in about a month, my nephew is going to be turning a year old.  I know I keep saying it, but time is flying by!  My sister has been planning his party since about August and we've gone back and forth so many times since then with different ideas for the design of his invitations.  She finally picked the One-Derful Boy 1st Birthday and I got to work on an invitation that would compliment her purchased paper goods, etc.

My sister was, by far, the most annoying customer I've had since starting this business.  But, my nephew is my little boyfriend and my most favorite little guy.  I love him so much that it was all worth it in the end. 

We decided to do a two-sided card design that measures about 4x8.  I'm loving this design so much that I think I'm going to start offering it in the shop.  In the meantime, if you're interested in this design - or any others - shoot me an email to info@westwinddays.com!

Back in September, we did a set of wrap around address labels for Aubrie.  She and her fiance are getting married this month and wanted these labels to jazz up their envelopes a little bit.  Aubrie recently sent me photos of the finished product, and I think they look great!

Best wishes, Aubrie and Christopher!
