Christmas Cheer

I'm procrastinating real bad this Holiday season. We do have some decorations up in the apartment, but not that many. We don't even have a tree for cryin' out loud. I'm dying to get one of those little Charlie Brown Trees from Kroger. They're so stinkin' cute! But, our stockings are up, so Santa is still sure to come, right?
And I have about many 30% of my shopping done. Sigh, I need to get on it.

Are you struggling with the gift shopping too? Some fellow bloggers always have great ideas and Joanna puts together great gift guides. Check out A Cup of Jo, Oh Joy and even Design*Sponge.

Holiday Wine Lamps

I finished my Chrismas project. Well, 4 of them actually. Check out these Wine Lamps! I have 2 in green based bottles and 2 in clear bottles. Aren't they magical?

Pin Me Monday

I could easily get lost for hours on Pinterest. What is it about this silly site that is so addicting?! Here's some things that I've found that make me smile. Happy Monday!

PS. You can follow me on Pinterest if you like. 

Buy me a present?

Happy December! I must apologize for the unintentional blogging break I took. But now I'm back and ready to get back to the grind! (:

Christmas is most definitely my favorite holiday and I can't wait to complete my shopping! I only have 3 gifts so far, and I need to step it up. I'll be starting and completing a project this weekend that will make for a GREAT Christmas present. So keep a look out for it. 

Bye, October!

Fall has officially been around for a few weeks now, but I feel like I FINALLY got to really experience it this past weekend. We went to Helen to walk around, experience the town and see all the beautiful colors up in the mountains. I was truly amazing at all the variations of orange, red, yellow and green. So, so beautiful.

gray&whites

When I was little, I always called them gray and whites vs. black and whites. I still do to this day. To me, they seem more beautiful that way.

What an amazing art

My desire to take a letterpress class just grew.

Let's start a fire

Fall is my absolute favorite season. Don't you just love layering your clothes and cuddling up by a fire with some hot chocolate? What a great way to spend an evening.

Let's go fly a kite

I'm dying to travel somewhere exciting. Any of these places will do.

Beautiful typography is mind-boggling

My mind has kind of taken an involuntary break from blogging lately. However, I can't stop staring at all this beautiful typography and just had to share.

Hot Date!

I got asked out on a date last night. By my boyfriend of almost 3 years. I'm giddy like it's our 3rd date. I'm thinking of going shopping on my lunch break for a flirty new outfit. I'm loving these looks. What do you think?

Paris, you'll always have my heart

It's officially Fall, which is my absolute favorite time of year. All I want to do is be outside enjoying the crisp, chilly air. This time of year always makes me miss Paris, well, Europe in general. I'm dreaming of the day I get to go back.
