{Cherry blossom print by ShadedMemories}

I love me some cherry blossoms AND tattoos. Which
might be why I have a cherry blossom tattoo. With all of the trees
blooming these beautiful bunches of flowers, I find myself
longing for another permanent drawing on my skin. Before
I was pregnant I was planning for my next tattoo.
But, once I got pregnant I had to put this off.

Now I'm breastfeeding (well, pumping. That's a whole other story)
I will need to wait longer. I know I want more cherry blossom
flowers on my right wrist, from the same lady that did my shoulder,
with Laureli's name in tiny writing.

I have to decide how much longer I can stand to pump

five times a day... then I can decide when to get my tattoo.

Any other tattoo cravings out there?

(By the way... I know, I was lazy and used the same
blog post from my mama blog! I just love
tattoos and cherry blossoms though!)

Wonderful Etsy Artists

I purchased many things from Etsy before my wedding. Here are a few of the different things I purchased and enjoyed:

Scallop Wrap from A Stitch to Wear:



I brought this wrap to Santorini, Greece with me. It was so nice to have when it got a little breezy! I loved it!

Candyland Eyemask from ity-bity Bags:



This was a lifesaver on the plane rides and ferry rides. Our total travel time to Greece was 24 hours. Back was 26. Man! I LOVE this mask! So comfy!

A travel pillow pillow from SynetCreations:




This too was a lifesaver. I drooled all over this thing!

My kimono wrap from Ahpeele:



I wore this every morning with our beautiful view of the Caldera in Greece. I'd sit there drink my tea, watch the donkey's go by, and see all the amazing ships down in the water.

My wristlet purse from DrikaB:



I attached the wrist part of this purse to a strap and wore this over my shoulder on our whole trip (As shown in my EXTREMELY touristy photo). It was compact, durable, and held a lot! Wonderful buy!

Last, but not least, my beautiful vintage glass bead earrings from MISSFICKLEMEDIA:



I wore these on my wedding day. They were the perfect addition to my wedding outfit.

I really just wanted to thank these artists, because I really enjoyed ALL of these items. Thank you!!!
