Friday Five --- Apples

Friday Five is back!!

Welcome to another edition.

Each week I choose a topic, 

then pick 5 Etsy shops to feature.

Pretty simple. Pretty darn fun.

Each photo caption is linked to an Etsy shop. 

So if you are interested in more details... click, click, click!

Do you have a topic idea for me for a future Friday Five post?

I love your ideas. 

Leave me a comment below!!

This weeks topic: APPLES!

Summers' end reminds me of apples, &

picking apples at my grandmas house as a little girl. 

I love apples...

in fact they are my favorite fruit. 

What is your favorite fruit?

I enjoy healthy apple snacks with:

almonds

string cheese

peanut butter

cottage cheese

caramel

What do you eat your apple with?

Arlene from This and That Crafter sure put together an elegant gray collection. 
Wouldn't her black and gray ribbon blend in perfectly?  She chose my charcoal gray owl softie to feature.  This owl is the perfect addition to any home decor.
