Several weeks ago, I finally purchased something I've had my eye on for months! And now that I have it in my possession, I can't imagine why I didn't buy it sooner.
It's a beautiful picture made by Emily Martin, owner of TheBlackApple, and I simply love it. I'd hug and snuggle it, but I don't want to destroy all the hard work that went into making this amazing piece of art.
What propelled my purchase? Well, I stumbled upon this darling print on Etsy.com and bookmarked it as a favorite months ago. Then I discovered that Emily Martin would be featured on the Martha Stewart Show. I was so worried that my little girl would be sold to someone else, so I snapped her up the night before the show aired!
Luckily, she was still there waiting for me. Hurray!
The Black Apple offers hand-sewn dollies with sweet faces, prints of little girls holding animals and dangling from trees, and postcards, too.
Check out the shop online: theblackapple.etsy.com
