Staycation!

Vacations are a luxury. While it would lovely to just get away for a few days and just relax, it just isn't the cards this year. With that said, there's no reason that staying home can't feel relaxing and luxurious. Here are a few great Etsy finds to help make that happen.

Pink and Yellow Plumeria Pleated Purse by AStonesThrow

The vacation, the tattoo, and the line of purses

When my husband returned from his first deployment with the Marine Corps, we finally got to take a honeymoon. We made the decision to go to Hawaii. Here we are at a Luau.
While we were at this Laua, the air smelled amazing! There were plumeria flowers everywhere, and there were all of these little craft booths for us to make bracelets and headbands out of the flowers. As I was making my bracelet, they were explaining that it's Hawaiian tradition to wear these flowers on the left side of your body if you are taken, and on the right side of your body if you are single. I thought that it was really cool that they were so proud to display their relationship status like that. Before we left (literally the day, of our flight back to California) I stopped by Hart and Huntington Hawaii and got this tattoo on my left foot.


Then, at a craft show, I happened upon a vendor who was selling some amazing fabric with lovely Plumeria prints. Immediately, I smiled, thinking about my honeymoon. I snatched up the fabric and turned it into some pleated purses.
