Were working on the bedroom right now. After moving here last year I wanted to make sure we didnt rush to get everything done, so weve taken our time in figuring out what to do with the bedroom, sinc...
Done! The hardest part by far was trying to make this thing round-ish. Its stuffed with an old Full comforter and a set of old flannel sheets. Its hard to believe this was made out of one long rectan...
The humidity makes all the fluff fall out of my hair. I felt the baby move this week! I thought for sure it would take way longer than normal because of my placenta position, but last Saturday ...
This was done for my friend Kalyn. She had two Queen sheets and a length of Ikea fabric and wanted to turn them into a duvet cover, so I used this tutorial and whipped it up for her. It was really ea...
The thrifting road trip was a success! We picked up lots of random bits and bobs and scored a few good baby-related things, like this awesome pony: Apparently hes called The Wonder Pony, from the 50s...
This is one of my favorite dresses, although I somehow forgot about it for a while. It has an unfinished hem, which is annoying because it makes the lace unravel, so I threw it in my "to-mend"...
Im so happy with these! I grabbed a friend and braved the yard sales this morning even though it was so hot oh my god why, but it totally paid off. I love the little set of 50s storybooks and the 40s...
Well, its getting super hot around here. Already. No big changes lately! Babybel cheeses are not my friends anymore, and bananas are also on notice (but not Trader Joes banana chips, those are...
When I planned this post I was hoping to be finished, but Im.. not. Obviously. So heres a progress post! This is my first piece of knitted furniture and I have no idea how its going to turn out. Its ...
Please note: belted cardigan/dress to emphasize the ambiguous in-between belly I have going on right now. (Im going to do belly photos at the end of each pregnancy week--since thats when the week tec...
The lady behind one of my favorite Etsy shops in the whole world, My Selvaged Life, recently emailed and asked if I would like to photograph one of her new necklaces in exchange for keeping it (like ...
Friday was my 27th birthday, so we celebrated by having dinner with a few friends and then taking a day trip to Charleston yesterday. We only had a few hours to explore so we didnt do ve...
I know! Unless you follow me on Ravelry you probably have no idea what Im talking about, but-- my granny square blanket! Its finally done! This thing seems like such a time-consuming monster, and it ...
Ive taken to curling my hair most days because Im trying to grow it out and have quickly realized that its at a really awkward, unpleasant, blah kind of stage. It tends to look boring and shapeless w...
If youre a fan of The Mighty Boosh, I really hope youve been watching this. Its weird and amazing and I have no idea how to explain it because much like the Boosh, you kind of just have to watch it t...
Seriously, Ive worn this outfit so much since putting it together. I think its because Im so in love with this cardigan (turquoise!) and the rust tights/lace combo is so pretty and feminine together....
I should note that were not having an early spring, because even though the windows are up and a nice breeze is flowing through the living room and it looks like its going to rain later, its supposed...
I havent been to a bag sale in ages, so when my old trusty favorite thrift shop announced it was having one, of course I had to give it a shot. I got there early, but there wasnt much to choose from ...
We spent the weekend in a cabin in Asheville, NC. It was my first time there, which always shocks everyone because its full of vintage/antique shops and hippie-type people, both of which are my favor...
This is my current favorite pattern book-- The Knitted Odd-bod Bunch by Donna Wilson.Well, Ive never been compelled to actually buy pattern books until I saw this one, because the creatures are so we...
Ive been looking forward to making this post because I always seem to forget about a lot of the photos from earlier in the year. Its left me feeling a little bittersweet, though, because its painfull...
Just a quick outfit post re: my holiday dress for this year! We stopped by the river to snap these photos just before driving home on the 23rd-- the dogs were staring at us from the car wondering wha...
One day when we own a house I will have a chalkboard wall in the kitchen, because thats just the best thing ever. But that day is not today and a normal sized one will have to do. I decided to make m...
The post title is the name of this Modcloth dress and I just thought it was kind of perfect. Look-- cats! Birdcages! Chandeliers! Very fancy indeed.Obviously Im addicted to these vintage photoshop fi...
Ive been so terrible about posting lately.The weather has been all over the place (warm, cool, warm, cool, warmwarmwarm) which discourages me from dressing up in lovely fall outfits and blogging abou...
ITS THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN! Time to start frantically marathon-knitting in order to get everything done before Christmas, while watching episode after episode of something. Last year I had a Joss Wh...
Just a few photos via my new friend Instagram..We finally figured out a window-covering situation for the living room: bamboo shades! I love these things, theyre so pretty with the wall color. They a...
Love,Weetzie the Unicorn & George the Monster(Yes, were those people. But arent they adorable?)
The blogging hiatus of laziness is over now, promise!And look-- new hair! I cant believe I finally grew out all that dark dye, which is a process, good heavens. It still isnt quite how I want it (the...
My rainbow ruffle bag! I finally finished it. Its from the same pattern as the bag I made for my moms birthday except this time around it took a bit longer to finish because I wasnt pressed for time....
