Must Haves!

Is there really anything that we have to have!! I mean really, we can do without so many of the things that we think that we need. I have tried to live this way throughout different times in my life, BUT it is quite fun to spend a bit on things that make us happy, inspire us, or just bring fun and joy to our lives. These books are ones I have been wanting to get for awhile now.
This just came out this last month and I just am so excited to get my hands on a copy!
Handmade Home
By Amanda Soule

These next three are ones I have had my eye on for awhile!

A Year of Mornings: 3191 Miles Apart
By Maria Alexandra Vettese and Stephanie Congdon Barnes


A Homemade Life: Stories and Recipes from My Kitchen Table (Hardcover)
By Molly Wizenberg

The Best of Becky Higgins' Sketches (Spiral-bound)
By Becky Higgins

She was just on the local news the other day showing some fun ideas from her book below. It looks oh so fun!

Bend the Rules with Fabric: Fun Sewing Projects with Stencils, Stamps, Dye, Photo Transfers, Silk Screening, and More By Amy Karol


This was her last book! So many fun ideas.

Bend-the-Rules Sewing: The Essential Guide to a Whole New Way to Sew By Amy Karol

Well, I guess I just may have to come up with a reason to buy one or two books!! My birthday is coming up. Yep, I think I may get my hands on a couple of these soon.
