One of the things I LOVE to do is find fun products and share them with others. I like to call them my “fun finds.” It is always so much fun to share something new that someone may not have ever seen before. Also I think it is a great way to help spread the word, especially since most I find are from small business owners.

Here are 3 I have found over the last few months which are my favorites:

Figgie Shoes :

They are custom hand-painted footwear.  And are AMAZING!!  She does women’s shoes, bridal shoes for the bride and her girls, kids, etc.  Her website is www.figgieshoes.com.  Check them out you will love them.

Handmade by Nicole Hawkins :

The product that intrigues me is her fabulous everlasting wedding bouquets.  What an idea! I would have loved that almost 13 years ago when I got married. All her products (necklaces, bracelets, rings, headbands, clips and brooches) are great.  She has a real talent.  Her site is on www.facebook.com/?ref=hp#!/handmadebynicholehawkins?v=wall.

Live Simply by innervision:

This small business owner transforms your photos into wonderful photo blocks. What a fun way to preserve you family photos! They make a great family heirloom. Her website is www.etsy.com/shop/innervision/. Super cute!

Great job ladies!

I think this may be the start to a fun series. So stay tuned for my set of fun finds. If you know of any you would like to share, please share in the comments.

      It is definitely one of my favorites. I look at my dried (and now falling apart after 13 years) bouquet and I wish I would have had one of Nicole’s bouquets.

BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT Ann

My path here wasn't exactly straight, and I think that's what makes it worth telling.

I wasn't supposed to be a photographer. I was supposed to become a doctor. Neurobiology premed, on track, until my oldest son was diagnosed with epilepsy and life took a hard U-turn. I took a break and enrolled in photography classes I had always wanted to take but never could as a premed. On day two I knew. This was where I was supposed to be. Funny thing is, that analytical, detail-oriented part of me never left. It just shows up differently now, in the way I plan every session, read the light, and pay attention to the moments most people miss. I finished my degree in a year and a half, started my business the following October, and sixteen years later I still believe this is the gift God gave me to give to others. And I don't take that lightly.
