Lex- Inspirational

Hello there! Lex Leigh here, from Lexoxo. Are you guys having fun during this blog party?  I'm loving it! A big thanks to Lindsay for asking me to be a part of it. This week I moved to Chicago from Portland, so I didn't have time to put together a fun DIY like I would've wanted to, BUT, I do still have something fun and inspiring to show you! It's a vintage style Coney Island photoshoot by Jamie Beck of From Me To You. I love love love the bright colors and carnival theme! It makes me realize how much I'm NOT ready for summer to be over. 

Hope you're as inspired by them as I am!

Meg- Inspirational and GIVEAWAY!

Hello Pixies & Bears Readers!

My name is Meg, from the blog Twisted Tree and I am so excited to be apart of Lindsay's very first blog party! I guess for those of you who don't know me I will tell you a little bit about myself...I am a SAHM of 3 beautiful children and married to the most perfect man, I started blogging in December if 2009 and since then I have met so many talented and amazing friends ( just like Lindsay)! Last December I picked up a pair of knitting needles and got a short lesson on knitting, after that I was hooked...I knitted away on hair accessories with the dream of opening up my very own Etsy shop...in February of 2010 that dream became a reality when I opened up Twisted Tree the Shop, you can check it out here!

Lately I've been in a bit of a creative rut, not picking up my needles in months...I've have been pretty busy these past few months, in the form of a beautiful little girl we call "Toots", as well as a 6 and 8 year old. So, for myself and for those of you reading this post here are some photos and a few inspirational quotes to help inspire us all...

The ability to convert ideas to things is the secret to outward success.

~Henry Ward Beecher~

The best way out is always through.

~Robert Frost~

Your imagination is your preview of life's coming attractions.

~Albert Einstein~

When one door closes another opens. But often we look so long so regretfully upon the closed door that we fail to see the one that has opened for us.

~Helen Keller~

Don't Follow Your Dreams, Chase Them.

~Richard Dumb~

To help celebrate Pixies and Bears first ever blog party, I am giving away your choice of any hair accessory from my shop...just leave a comment on this post telling me what inspires you!

Winner will be picked this Sunday, August 15th :)

Thank you Lindsay for giving me the opportunity to be a part of your Blog Party, you are an amazing person and friend!

xoxo~Meg
