Friday check in.




So I'm sitting here at my parents, drinking coffee, watching TV, going on the Internet, talking to my dad(he is napping right now) whatever I can find to do. It seems that whenever I go away, that's when I get all these ideas to make stuff, BUT I don't have anything with me...............blah. It will all just have to wait till Sunday when I'm back home and I can work on my first challenge back at The Creative Type, excited about that. I think now that I purged some stuff out of my stash, I am not so overwhelmed, well at least I'm hoping that I wont be.

Time for me to share some stuff that I have been enjoying:

I love the prompt that Jen and Kim have over at Work your soul. I am a paper hoarder, I just organized stacks of it on Tuesday. The sculpture, dress, boots, mobiles, oh my goodness. Love them. But most off all that pillow their guest designer Jamaica came up with, how brilliant:) Now all I need is my very own couch to fill with all kinds of pretty pillows made from scanned vintage paper turned fabric(does that make sense?) It a good way to use those favorite papers but yet do no harm to them, no cutting, none of that. I also loved what Jen came up with, love that style of hers . I love all the inspiring ideas my friends come up with, that is why I love this whole community and just had to come back:)

I have been visiting this blog quite alot this past winter. I love all of the images, especially when they lived in NYC for a little while, all the photos they took of different places and things. It was fun recognizing alot of those, and knowing exactly why they took a picture of this or that. NYC is really a great diverse place with something interesting on each corner, from Brooklyn to The east Village, gotta love it. But anyway, love that blog, love all their photos, just so much fun to look at in the morning with a cup of coffee.

Everything is lovely on this blog. I especially love their green scheme going on in their house. Love all those books, their wooden mustaches, the art installation they do, love it all.

At this blog, there are lots of lovely things and weekly giveaways of lovely things:) And its fun, because you answer a really nice question and then she chooses. So go and see and go and answer!

This pocket book that Lisa has made, is calling to me. I love it. Even the clutches, I think they would make such great Spring/Summer accessories.

I want to doodle like this girl something I ......................love the birdie with the earphone:) That is definitelyhavent done in awhile, drawn. Should really get back to it, I have so many empty skecthbooks and supplies.

This is just wacky, but cute. I love her videos of all the icky stuff she eats. (nothing to do with making things, although she makes very adorable things)

I'm in trouble............................just found a new thing that I want to collect.................. Momiji dolls.





and to make matter worse I won this on Ebay.............................


I cant stop with the Re-ment, and I love this whole collection. I will be adding this next to my Espresso machine that I have, so freaking cute.



In other news, today I did a slight sacrilegious thing.............................I cleaned my white Verses. Usually you want them to be all dirty, but mine looked so bad, too dirty, so now they are out on the porch drying.

Tonight my father is cooking our Corned Beef and Cabbage( a few days early, but good for me because I wont be able to make it here on St. Pat's day) Then after dinner I will catch a train out to see my good friend Erin. It will include a night of Rock Band(hoping, crossing my fingers) and Jerry and the Mermaids. A girls night out. Tomorrow we will be off to a parade out in West Hampton, so it should be a good finish to my week long vacation.

I think Ive done quite a bit of sharing and what have you, I'm out now:) Bye!
