Blog Feature and a Giveaway: Suzanne

1. Tell us about yourself! (your name, your age, what you do etc)
Hi! I'm Suzanne, I'm 33 and live in beautiful Kelowna, BC (Canada). I am happily married, for over 6 years now, to my Texan hubby - and we have a cute black kitty named Josie. I have a full time office job as an administrator but my passion lies with my little crafty/jewelry business (http://suzannemade.com). I love to making pretty things by hand!


2. What kind of crafts are you into right now?
Art journals, sewing fun little zippy pouches, making stationary and designing hand-stamped charm jewelry.

3. What are some of your current obsessions?
Instant photos, stuff from the 80's, owls acorns & squirrels (always), vintage pyrex & typewriters, journals/notebooks/planners, charms, skeleton keys

4. What is one of your crafty goals for 2010?
To expand my little business to include prints of my paintings and photography.

5. What makes your blog special and why should we read it?
I have a pretty quirky sense of humour and I think that comes across in my writing/blogging. I also like to feature indie artists that not everyone has seen before, as well as luxe finds that no one can afford but always makes for good eye candy! I will occasionally throw in a fab recipe I've discovered or share a good book or movie I love. I'm pretty eclectic, so I always have a little something for everyone :)

6. Name your 5 favorite blogs! (with the links so I can link them)
Oh man, there are so many I love... here are 5 at random!
My Polaroid Blog
You Are My Fave
