so greatful that...

I was asked to draw for a photographers brochure. My mom works for the most amazing photographer, she is trying to expand her business, and asked me do draw for the "style" section. Though its a little drawing I love that I have yet one more thing for my portfolio!!

This ones for the GIRLS

This is for all you girls about 25
In a little apartment, just trying to survive
Living on, on dreams and spaghettios
wonder'n where your life is gonna go...

This ones for the girls
who've ever had a broken heart
who've wished upon a shooting star
your beautiful the way you are
this ones for the girls

who love without holding back
who dream with everything they have
all around the world
this ones for the girls

DIY I think so!!

This is the headboard I bought at the flea market last month, now what to do, what to do???


Here are a few of the ideas that I have for it. I know I want to do it in a really great printed fabric, but I am struggling with how strong of a pattern I want. I have to take in what kind of bedding and textiles around the room I am also going to use, but these are some of my favorites!









Antiques

So to start my Fourth off right I went to the largest flea market in Northern California again yesterday. It is my second time going, and it is seriously the most amazing place I have ever been. Being surrounded by both old and new novelty items puts a big ol' smile on my face. I didn't buy anything big this time (last time a bought a headboard) because of my move in a month, but I did buy two things that I have been inspired by. One of the items seems so simple but they were just to fun to pass up, they were close pins with words written on them. In an earlier post I showcased some of my favorite things, and one of them was old rope with old cards and photos closed pinned on. So that is my goal with these cute items. The second thing I bought looks like an old frame to a mirror. I am going to take the frame and put chicken wire in it and make it a clip board for my wall!!I Love DIY projects and can't wait to get started on the next few.

Here are some pictures of things that inspired me at the market yesterday!

Weddings and House Party

So my very very good friends back in Tejas Josh and Sarah are getting married December 30th, and have asked me to be in their house party. Which as far as I can tell is a southern tradition in which; if a bride can't have all of her wonderful friends in her bridal party, the house party is the next best thing! So here I am of course already trying to find the perfect dress 6 months before the actual wedding, I just can't help myself I'm a planner through and through!!! So as I was talking to Sarah last night she mentioned that those of us in the House Party will be in classic black cocktail dresses. Well of course I have plenty of black dresses but since I of course DO NOT repeat wearing dresses that I have been pictured in, I bought the most amazing bcbg dress. I am super excited and can not wait for my first friend(s) to get married!!YAY!!

So I was going to post the picture of the dress but it's sold out!!! Thank goodness I bought it last night when I did. I will post the dress once I receive it!
