My Crafty Life
http://www.backwoodsophisticate.blogspot.com/
My blog is mainly about: buying handmade, trying to live a simpler life and creating unique handmade items myself. I love to review handmade purchases and talk about things I find on Etsy. I am also a stay at home mom of three so there are also lots of parenting stuff too. And, sense I tend to be a bit scattered in everything I do, this too will more than likely be an eclectic blog.
