Arizona Road Trip: Sedona and Flagstaff

Arizona Road Trip: Sedona
I hope all of you had a wonderful weekend! I am happy I had a wonderful trip to Sedona and Flagstaff.
I have been to Sedona before, but every time the views take my breath away.  The famous Tlaquepaque Arts and Crafts Village is my favorite place to spend my after-noon. I can get lost in art galleries for hours.

In Sedona you can also find beautiful jewelry and decor pieces. After I had lunch and a *large* coffee, I was able to do some shopping before we headed to Flagstaff.

From Sedona to Flagstaff there is an amazing scenic drive. Once we got to Flagstaff, we headed to the historic downtown.

One of the stops I made was to the Candle Factory Store from where I bought some Passion Fruit pink candles that smell delicious. Also, their cherry and raspberry tart candles are so chic and unique.

The next stop was the Animas Beads store. Besides beads, they sell decor items and here I found this old turquoise door. This door would look great displayed as an art piece or even used  as a headboard.

Another lovely turquoise thing I saw was this storefront:

I hope next time I will have more time to explore Flagstaff.  I am just happy we were able to see so much in one day. 
As probably you noticed, I used Instagram to take all the pictures. If you would like to see more pictures, look for azlifeNstyle on Instagram.

Have you done any weekend trips recently? What are your vacation plans for this summer?

Thank you, 

Ali
