My mission



To search thrift stores today to find fabric & lace to create a skirt inspired by the amazing artists at Gibbous { http://www.gibbousfashions.com/ }

I cannot wait!

EDIT:
LAWL! I just realized that, in my infinite awesomeness, one of the tabs opened on my computer in that picture does in fact say "Medicated Baby heads".

A craft project after my own heart...

I'm a bit of a blog addict. I'm ridiculously interested in other peoples lives and interests (go figure what my major is!).

I stumbled upon the sweetest craft project the other day while reading the lovely Secret Pie Shoppe blog (http://secretpieshoppe.blogspot.com).

It's perfect for me as I'm a bit OCD about symmetry and order (okay - so I'm very ocd!), I like big and grand ideas that often are totally realistic yet never get fulfilled due to my ever expanding issue with ADD, and I like instant gratification.



Yep - how is this not perfect for me? I may change it up from hearts, but this will definitely be happening asap!

Spring is drawing near...

And I'm fighting a severe urge on Valentine's Day to start reorganizing my entire house! I'm getting that 'spring cleaning' itch and instead of giving in completely I indulged momentarily in drooling over beautifully organized craft rooms on flickr.
Le sigh. This will be a must-have in my next house!

It's been a good week!

I've taught - and upon closer review of my chalkboard post class I feel fairly sorry for my students who have to try and decipher my chicken scratches!



I've started working with my kitty, Salem, on taking some pics to submit to feline playgirl






I finally received the adorable purse my mom got for me



I made the MOST amazing discovery on etsy! Salt shakers that are gay, practical AND amazing! Really! It even says so on the box! What's even more fantastical is that these are from 1948...I can't wait for them to arrive (and better pics when they do). You'll never guess where the salt comes out of!!



Finally - I redid the pink in my hair. I loves it! I'm thinking of adding two more chunks this week.
