Life at a "Swell's" pace: Sometimes Wants

1. Westman Atelier: Squeaky Clean Liquid Lip Balm

2. Staub X Goop: 7QT Round Cocotte

3. Observer's Notebooks (Astronomy, Birds, Butterfly, Home, Trees, Weather)

4. Westmark Hermetus Bottle Opener and Resealer

5. Hard Shell Travel Case

6. Avdar Museum Block Set

7. Whiled Spot the Teckel Puzzle by B.D. Graft

8. Julep Beauty Powder House Foaming Facial Cleanser

9. Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve Avocado Cream Lip Balm

10. Opinel Traditional #7 Carbon Steel Folding Knife

It's spring, which means, change in lip color, updating some cookware, and a few other items that have caught my eye lately. Always loving a new book, and these are great for observations around your home, or while on the road. A bottle opener, a hard case travel kit, a pocket knife, and some lip balm, could all be added to a road trip travel kit. We are looking into taking some more road trips soon, but everything is just so strange right now, that it's on hold. Also, with my anxiety struggles, puzzles have been a great thing to help me keep my mind off of things. I've been struggling a bit hard lately, and I highly recommend these two varieties of puzzles, if you have anxiety/PTSD/panic issues, as well. And, last, but definitely not least, with aging skin, face and skin care is a plus. I love powder to foam daily face cleaner. It leaves my face feeling amazing and soft. It isn't harsh and doesn't dry out my face, or break me out.

When it comes to minimizing there's always that chance that we may purchase something we don't need. All in all though, it's nice to dream and imagine what it would be like to buy things at a certain time. It's window shopping at its best. Here's a list of things I'd love to have, but don't really need.
January edition of "Sometimes Wants."

1. Homerun cardigan

2. Milo cashmere briefs

3. Max frommeld glass spoon

4. Ricorrobe wool hiking trouser

5. Bagged hazelnut shells-25 lbs.

6. Silver bar -double finger ring

7. Minimalist wood two finger ring

8. Souchi stella cardigan

9. Medium market basket

10. Courier Bags

These items seem to call to me and one, or two, of them may join me in the coming months. Market baskets have peeked my interest for awhile now, but I haven't liked the colors of the ones I've seen at our local co-op lately. Bright red and oranges just aren't my style when it comes to basket colors. I've had my eye on the market basket above for some time now and I feel from this list it is the only thing I can say for certainty that I will purchase. The rest of this list is amazing items from some extraordinary companies. Ethically sourced and environmentally sound companies. And for me, some of them are even local. Give them a gander and see what items peek your interest.
