Weekend Obsessions: Book Arts Edition

One thing you need to know about us is how obsessed we are with books. art. paper. and words. Craig and I recently counted over 575 books in our collection! So this weekend's obsessions are in honor of the printed word, and in celebration of the natural process of REUSE. Enjoy.

 WE have BIG news to share with you. RobbinTheHood Vintage is getting a 

BANNER MAKEOVER!

 

Leigh Ann from Freckled Nest hosted a Blog-Anniversary Giveaway 

& We won!  We had the choice of one of these prizes.

An e-sewing course would have been sweet,

 but a new BANNER for RobbinTheHood Vintage would be AMAZING. 

And, it's not something we know anything about!  

What do you all think? Good choice?

Here's to new beginnings and new blogging friends. A BIG Thank You to Leigh Ann for the awesome opportunity. We are so very grateful. And if you haven't been over to her blog, do check it out, she is always updating DIY tutorials, links, and personal stories  :)

Check back with us soon!

This Week's Handmade Haven: 

SlimTimber

 I bought this wallet in Walnut for Craig this year for his 27th birthday. He had been complaining about the weight of his wallet in his back pocket and I was reminded of my father's back issues (and he's not even 50 yet!) So far, it has encouraged Craig to use his front and/or cargo pockets. It comes with a small leather strap with a magnet for closure. 

I think it's very classy. What do you think?

SlimTimber is a creative couple based out of Boise, Idaho.  

All of the wood used in their wallets is hand selected.

Each wood wallet is handmade in their shop and undergoes a 

personal inspection for quality before it is shipped.  

**Items will ship AT LEAST 2 weeks after your order is placed**

We were very pleased with this handmade (wooden) product, and we love supporting creative artists who put the time, care, and craftsmanship into their art. Thank you SlimTimber!

What are your thoughts/experience?

Have questions, please share!
