Tinkered Treasure Inspiration

I have always loved magazines.

Years ago I never dreamed that someday when I read one that I would know the author of the article I was reading.

Thanks to blogging, I have met the most amazing gifted writers, artists, crafters, photographers and decorators.

Elyse Elizabeth Major is blessed with all of these gifts.

I first discovered Elyse from Tinkered Treasures two years ago when I fell in love with the frames that she was designing and selling on her etsy shop.

I asked her if I could use one of her beautiful frames on a print I wanted to sell in my shop.  She was so gracious and I was able to create with Elyse's tinkered inspiration.  Her Shabby Chic, cottage style made me realize I had found a kindred spirit.

Tinkered treasures is currently on vacation, but stay tuned.

Thanks to Elyse, it became a collaborated Creation between two etsians.  I never knew that it would mark the beginning of a wonderful blogging adventure over at her Cottage.

Over the years, she has introduced me to designers like Cath Kidson, wonderful creative ideas for my home, and interesting and amazing places to visit in New England.

Elyse has also introduced me great make it crafts, and new magazines where you can find articles written by her.  Her style has opened doors for her to be published in many magazines. And her press reveals many places where you can find Eylse today.

So, it was such a lovely surprise when I opened up the pages of the current Artful Blogging magazine and found Elyse.

She has written such a beautiful and heartfelt article in Stampington & Company's Artful Blogging magazine.  The article is KEEPERS OF MEMORY, our blogs and treasured friends.

Today is Pink Saturday, and Bev from How Sweet The Sound is hosting this event.

Please stop by and wish Elyse Congratulations.  If you haven't already subscribed to her lovely blog, you will truly enjoy her writing, photography and inspirational posts. The song for this post is taken from one of Elyse's favorite movies, You've Got Mail.

Anyone At All.

Elyse has presented many of these charming animated badges to her treasured bloggers. but perhaps the most treasured blogger of all is she!
