Try Handmade - An Indie Site worth checking out

I recently stumbled across Try Handmade.  It's a really cool Indie site that features unique and beautifully crafted handmade items.  They strive to feature quality handmade products, not Michael's or AC Moore crafts that someone put together in an hour.
Here are some of my favorites :)


                                                                         Romantic!

Functional and stylish.

Can't you just smell the lavendar?

Spring fun!

Love the colors and depth.

'Regally'  gorgeous.

Simply stunning.

I thought the knit sleeve would feel so warm and

cozy on a cold winters day.

Really unique

I love these colors, so cool and soothing.

The necklace is what their selling in this shot, but it's

not what caught my eye! 

So unique and colorful :)

If you are a lover of all things handmade then I would highly recommend you head on over to Try Handmade.  They do a great job of spreading the love around, not constantly featuring the same artist over and over again. Variety is the spice of life and they have it!

Enjoy! 

Alzheimer's Disease Sucks!

I hate to be a downer but I could use some "in the trenches" advice on how to deal with a family member having Alzheimer's disease.  My vibrant 71 year old mother was just diagnosed with this awful disease and I am devastated!  I have been reading up on the illness but would like to talk to someone who has or is going through this process.  Any insight would be greatly appreciated.  I am hoping that none of my small band of followers have insight about this but if so, please add anything you would like or if you'd rather, you can email me privately at tonyaboezi@gmail.com

As my grandmother used to say, "Aging is not for the faint of heart".  How right she was!
