Friday Featured Etsy Seller: The Bee & Nie

Have you seen this fantastic Etsy shop? The Bee & Nie sends 50% of their proceeds to the Maricopa Burn Foundation in honor of Stephanie Nielson. They have some really cute items. I ordered the bee themed kit. I really like the cupcake wrappers, too!

NieNie's Basement

I just realized that Friday's post was my 500th. Hooray! So, did you see the remodel of NieNie's basement by Alice Lane? I really love this mirror - and the built-in bookcases.

Did you see Nie's Easter baskets? They are gorgeous. I love that the elements are all so natural-looking and nature-inspired. After being at the grocery store last week, I had almost written off Easter baskets as too tacky - I might have to rethink that...
