Why....

Every once and awhile I go on a spree where I NEED a new handbag. I need it from the very core, and I will not rest until I find the perfect one (for a month or two). For my birthday Eric planned to take me to the "purse store" which was in Westlake - you heard it, WAS... My kind of favorite store in Westlake was closed, thus me dashing all hopes of a new purse for my birthday. We decided to shop around and We wandered in and out of stores, and I found bags I liked, but nothing I LOVED. We walked into Macy's (we NEVER walk into Macy's) and I landed my eyes on this B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L bag (pictured), and then my eyes landed on the price tag (not so beautiful). Once I was done hyperventilating at the price tag on the Sea Green Fossil Maddox Satchel we walked away. And I am so in love, and now, I'm still in the search for a new handbag but nothing quite measures up. I found myself showing Eric this picture tonight telling him if he comes by one that isn't an outrageous price, he needs to buy it. Why, why, why did I walk into Macy's that day... I NEVER WALK INTO MACY'S! Stupid Macy's.
Okay, that's it, I'll quit whining... but I did have to share the beauty that is my dream handbag!
What first world problems I have.

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
