Bold and Beautiful meets Quirky Cute

And that headline, ladies and gentlemen, describes Sweetiepips.

Geometric Jewelry by Sweetiepips

Sweetiepips is one of my favorite jewelry shops with it’s wide range of styles and beautifully bright colors.   It’s run by a very fascinating lady name Katrien, who is an awesome artist and absolutely loves what she does.  It definitely shows!

Vintage Style Necklace by Sweetiepips

Katrien describes her work as “Unique, Bold and Beautiful Bits “N” Pieces”.   She says that she loves to ponder, experiment, design, and create unique and beautiful things.  “Taking inspiration from past and present, vintage and contemporary fashions and styles, my bits ‘n’ pieces then unravel and evolve quite organically.”

And showing off her whimsical side, you have to love these cute and sometimes quirky designs:

A Triple Jammy of Delicious!

One Jammy…. Two Jammy….. Three!

Three delicious types of Jammy Cookies from Little Nevas Bakery.  Jaded Jammies, Blonde Jammies and  Original Jammies.

Jammie Cookies

Little Nevas Bakery is owned and operated by Wendy Russo in Earlysville, Virginia.

Little Nevas Bakery

Wendy opened her own online bakery after years of baking for restaurants and shops in Florida and Virginia.  Many of her cookies are based on favorites that she remembers from her youth, and her Jammie collection is definitely a culmination of her memories.

Wendy’s Jammie Cookies are snuggle up, feel good cookie delights.  In her Jammie Sampler Pack she offers 2 of each flavor for only $10.00.

The Original Jammie is her traditional all butter sugar cookie with raspberry jam spooned in between 2 shaped cookies which are flavored with pure vanilla and almond extracts and then baked. They are similar to the well known Linzer cookies, but she makes them without the spices added to the cookie dough so the vanilla and almond flavors jump out at you.

The Blonde Jammie is also made with her popular sugar cookie dough and filled with delicious Apricot Jam.

For her Jaded Jammies she has 1 cocoa sugar cookie layer and and vanilla layer, filled with raspberry jam AND semi sweet chocolate chips. Double chocolate pleasure, not too sweet.

Apricot filled cookies

All of Wendy’s cookies are cello bagged and boxed, or packaged in cute clear containers, tied with a bow and topped with a personal note or card.  She ships everything USPS Priority Mail, so you’ll have delicious sweet treats in no time at all.  All baked with love just for you.  What a wonderful gift these Jammies would make.

Little Nevas Bakery

Be sure to stop by her shop and give her Jammies and other baked delights a try.
