Dropped off an order of our Hand-Etched Ornaments at the amazing Daytrip Society in Kennebunkport, Maine today. So very honored that our ornaments will be there this year.
If you haven't been to Daytrip Society yet, go! Such a beautiful shop filled with unique gifts, many of which are Maine-made and New England-made. I wanted to take the whole place home with me!
I wish this picture wasn't so glare-y so you could see their beautiful window display!
I've just joined Bloglovin' - if you're on there, please give my blog a follow. It's a great way to manage all the blogs you love and keep up-to-date on them all.

It's always fun running off to the ocean every once and awhile. Even though it's not too far away we don't get there very often. Last week we decided to make a quick day trip to Marginal Way in Ogunquit, Maine. It's always a fun little trip!
Perkins Cove at low tide
We parked near Perkins Cove and got onto the Marginal Way there. The Marginal Way is a beautiful 1.5 mile paved pathway that follows along the edge of the ocean and ends near downtown Ogunquit.
Beautiful views along the Marginal Way.
Some beach roses still in bloom.
Downtown there are several trolleys that can take you around.
We got some delicious pastries at Bread & Roses while we were there. I highly recommend their giant cookies and mini baguette sandwiches.. Mmmmm!
Along the Marginal Way there are a few access points down to the ocean via stairs. Our little one loved playing in the sand and checking out the rocks up close.
So many cute shops to explore too!
Next time you're in Southern Maine make sure to check out the Marginal Way and Ogunquit!
Being a busy bee this Labor Day, making a bunch of Hand-Etched Snowflake Ornaments in Soft Maple and White Birch. Hand-made by me here in New Hampshire!
I just received some of the most beautiful party and gift supplies from Creative Wife & Joyful Worker and Essential Packaging, Inc. Now I really want to throw a party, STAT! They included ribbons, tissue paper, favor bags, gift boxes and bags, straws, seals, gift tags and more, all in a white and gold theme. Essential Packaging definitely has an eye for coordinating everything beautifully!
Thank you so much again, ladies! All the items are gorgeous and so luxe.
