A lot of people can't figure out the meaning behind my blog title. I really came up with the name when I was toying around with starting some form of a baby/children's boutique. As most of you know, I have an absolute obsession with stripes and polka dots...it just seemed like a natural fit. As I grew up the courage to start my blog for the family, I could not think of anything creative to title it. Yesterday, I decided to start featuring some of the striped, polka dotted, and what not things that I love. Hopefully, you will love the items and decide you can't live without them! If you come across a "thing to love", pass it on. I can feature you and that item! Happy Loving!
ZEBRA STRIPED
My friend, Maggie, created these masterpieces with her kiddles! I just love them especially the zebra striped one! You, too, can create one of these! Mag was able to free hand both...wish I had that talent. To achieve the zebra print, spray paint the whole pumpkin in white. Then create the black stripes with black acrylic paint.
DOTS AND STRIPES
I recently ordered this whimsical banner from Etsy. I adore it! You can find your own creation at Whimzy Creations. The designer was super easy to work with and promptly had my purchase in the mail. I have got my eye on a "Give Thanks" banner for Thanksgiving.
