Advertising Now Available in Gifted Magazine 2011

Hi everyone! I just wanted to pop in at this unusually late hour to announce that after a lot of thought I've decided that I will be accepting a curated selection of advertisers for the 2011 edition of Gifted Magazine! This year's issue will focus solely on an amazing gift guide with featured gift giving ideas for just about everyone and every budget. I've worked especially hard to fill the magazine with fabulous products from artisans and small businesses, which I know will brighten the holidays for a lot of hard working independents out there, and make holiday shoppers feel jolly too! And if that wasn't enough, there will be surprise or two tucked inside as well. It's going to be wonderful!

Since the magazine is launching next week, time and space is extremely limited! Download a copy of the rate sheet to see if Gifted is a good fit for your business (ads start as low as $60). Please get in touch immediately if you are interested in having your business advertised in Gifted this year. Inquires should be sent to contactgiftedmag@gmail.com (subject: "advertising").

Please include the following with your email:

• An active shop URL
• 1-2 low resolution images that give a good feel for your shop aesthetic
• Which ad option you are interested in

*Please note that no ad design service is available at this time. Ad artwork will be due no later than Tuesday, November 8th. Due to the high volume of emails that I am receiving at this time of year as well as the limited number of advertising spots available in the magazine, only selected advertisers will be contacted. Thank you so much for your interest!

Inspirational Art and Styling from Therese Sennerholt

I came across these bold and gorgeous art prints from Therese Sennerholt over on the wonderful Rumfortva blog (definitely worth taking the time to visit) and I fell in love. Not only are they lovely in every way, but the styling for each shop photo has me feeling inspired too!

Pop on over and see more for yourself. P.S. They also ship worldwide (woohoo). xo Ez

Inspiration Daily: Nervous Italian Greyhounds

Cyclamen by Camilla Engman. Her photos are gorgeous, but my favorite thing of all might be how on her blog she describes these flowers as looking like "a pack of sensitive and a little nervous Italian greyhounds with fluttering nostrils." Haha! Don't you love that!

A Few Things I'm Loving Right Now

As I'm coming into the homestretch with this year's holiday gift guide I am finding that all the lovely finds that I've squirreled away in my bookmarked are starting to cloud together with those set aside for my daily posts. They are all just so great! Ack! These pretties however were just begging to be shared today. I hope you're having an amazing week so far. Thanks for stopping by and making my blog a brighter place today. xo Ez
