Free Fonts

Who doesn't love cute, free fonts?! I know I do!

Thanks to my friend and Sincerely Yours of Madison Owner Elizabeth Bryant, I have been on my computer the last 2 hours downloading free fonts from the CUTEST WEBSITE EVER.

I've always been a fan of hadwritten fonts. While working with Elizabeth on a Save the Date last week, she shared one of her beloved sources for fonts. Check it out...

I promise you'll love what you see!

I'm finally taking the plunge...

I'm opening an Etsy store!!!! I'm not open yet, so don't get too excited. I promise it will be worth the wait though!

I hope to sell a mix of paintings, pottery, and other handmade goodies. Items for children's rooms, nurseries, kitchens, dens and everywhere in between. Who knows what all I'll come up with :)

I hope to have it up and running by the first of October so fingers crossed everyone.
In the meantime, I plan on posting pics of some of the available items on my blog for your enjoyment!

Check back soon...

Boot Jacks

Our latest project...

We've started making custom boot jacks! I love these! These are handmade from start to finish complete with a hand cut cedar rest to ensure it's super easy to use. These jacks may be used for men's or women's boots.

For this one we used my favorite TEXAS flag as inspiration.

For the hippie chick!

Custom orders available. This shows one with a custom logo for a business.

Any colors or designs can be accommodated. Just ask!

Several years ago (yes, I said YEARS) my husband and I bought a box of old boots at a yard sale. We figured one of these days we would think of something to do with the old leather. We finally did! Our boot jacks can be made with new or vintage leather.

Orders welcome. Please allow 1-2 weeks production time.

Thanks for the continued support!

Obsessions!!!

Colors, stores, people, movies, food- obsessions come in all varieties, but I'm beginning to think mine are a little odd. Allow me to elaborate...

I'm brainstorming for a wedding I'm designing when I realize that my obsessions are resurfacing...AGAIN!! What are they you ask? While I am definitely obsessed with food (especially that of the Southern persuasion- YUM!) the others aren't quite so typical.

Drum roll please...

I, Kristen King, am OBSESSED with mason jars, burlap and brown paper bags.

They say admitting the problem is the first step to recovery...right?!

Mason jars = my favorite thing EVER! I mean what else can you drink from, use as a vase, hang for a lantern and store homemade goodies in?! As far as I'm concerned, it's be best thing since sliced bread. No question.

As for the brown paper bag, it's mainly a color thing for me. I love-Love-LOVE the color of a paper grocery sack! I love it so much I took one with me when picking out my wedding invitations, bridesmaids dresses and paint for my house! Seriously, they are all a perfect match to a brown paper bag. (Not normal, right?!)

I think my burlap fetish was fueled by my brown paper bag obsession. Of course the color is PERFECT! Not only that, I love the smell, texture and 101 ways you can use it. Curtains, slipcovers, Christmas tree skirts, table toppers, wrapping paper, pottery molds- the list could go on forever!

Now that I'm thinking about it, my obsessions have been the inspiration behind some of my most meaningful and creative event designs. You can definitely see a little bit of me in each of my events. I can't wait to see what I come up with for this wedding! It's going to be so much fun!

Did I mention the wedding is in a barn? I'm sensing a fourth obsession...
