I started this blog over 2 years ago. My initial hope was that it would be a creative outlet, give me a place to seek out amazing finds and showcase all the lovely things out there. My secondary hope was I could use my knowledge, learn a thing or two along the way & open up a retail shop....well November 30th, the shop opened! My blog has been quite neglected but my head is filled with so much to share, so I will be posting more in the weeks to come. </div>

First though, here is the beginning of our (my Mom, Paulette & I) shop. Stumble & Relish, located in Evanston, Illinois (1310 A Chicago Ave, Evanston, IL 60201).</div>

We fell in love with the space that was formerly known as Folk Works Gallery. The previous owners were there for over 12 years so we are hoping to continue their success. The space was cute & quaint and after looking at MANY locations we kept coming back to this one. Plus, there are so many great local shops in the neighborhood! We picked up some great estate sale finds. Thanks to my friend, Amber, this brown metal tool chest is now something we could not live without! <br />

We had SO much help along the way, painting was a huge undertaking and we couldn't have done it without all of our friends & family. Yes, I made them paint the ceiling dark teal blue & it was well worth it but quite a task!<br />

Look at the end product! Wow, how far we've come in 7 weeks! We worked to decorate inexpensively but we wanted there to be some character to our pieces- we have a display cabinet that is probably from the 20's mixed with an IKEA rug and back-dropped by our bold paint & simple stencil. Needless to say we like to mix it up & in the end we made it work. The shop will always be a work in progress, the product we sell will be the stars & we will do the best to tell the stories of each piece we find.</div>

I thought it was a pretty ingenious way to pair Science with fashion plus it looked so unique. I was fascinated by the whole process. Honestly, it must be so fun to see a paper 2D piece come to life in 3D form. I was so excited to stumble onto this jewelry line by way of <a href="http://fab.com/">Fab.com</a> and I had to see more!<br />
<br />
This line is not only organic, modern & just cool; every piece is based on nature. <a href="http://n-e-r-v-o-u-s.com/about_us.php">Nervous System</a> "write computer programs based on processes and patterns found in
nature and use those programs to create unique and affordable art,
jewelry, and housewares". The jewelry is so sculptural yet wearable and it's affordable. Check out the whole line <a href="http://n-e-r-v-o-u-s.com/shop/">here</a> & take some time to play with their <a href="http://n-e-r-v-o-u-s.com/radiolaria/">Radiolaria</a> to create your own biology inspired jewelry piece.<br />

There are so many reason's to love <a href="http://www.etsy.com/">Etsy</a> but you can't beat the work & uniqueness of a lovely handmade gift. We all have our needs from the local big box store but when it comes to a gift, knowing that it is made by hand makes it even better. Handmade may cost a little more but remember that little extra cost is because one person imagined it, developed it, loved it, had confidence in it & created it for you to love...I think that is worth every penny. <br />

This line is simple, unique and refreshing. I am loving these geometric, sketchy designs. The pillows are mostly two-sided so you get a little something extra in each one. This is another favorite from the Chicago <a href="http://www.renegadecraft.com/chicago">Renegade Craft Fair</a>. I am so drawn to the mountain art...love this tote!<br />

They look cool, they feel great and they add a great pop of color. I love these sweet cement planters from <a href="http://lucidcollection.wordpress.com/category/diy/">Lucid Design</a>. I saw these at <a href="http://www.renegadecraft.com/chicago">Renegade</a> and I'm now wishing I had brought one home...<br />
