Spring Break Project Mania

Spring Break is here and all I can do is project after project after project....
I started with a shadow box filled with some of my grandmother's old dance cards. My mom read some of my grandmas journal to me while I sewed my next project-felt wallets. My grandmother was hilarious and constantly on the go. It was very entertaining to hear.



Then I made a few earrings.
Then quickly moved on to journals.

I picked up some stuff so I can start screen printing the designs onto T-shirts and bags... Spring Break is just not long enough for all the projects I have in mind. I have also decided (a little last minute) that I am going to go to Salt Lake to visit my sister this coming weekend. So Utah friends-WATCH OUT! You are about to get roped into several time consuming projects without even seeing it coming. Also here is a picture that Blake took with the camera that I gave him for Christmas. This is our friend Kit in board shorts holding some snorkeling goggles and fins. I love it.
Oh and I think I finally scored my first "freelance" graphic design project. Should be fun! I am excited, and nervous, but mostly excited.

When was the last time

I was totally objectified by Erik's skis. I also declared it hunting season and then I made up a song about Goody Proctor from the Crucible.

One post in three parts.

Part I
Take a look at these pictures and ask yourself if you don't honestly wish for more of this in your life. If you don't well... I guess I just don't know what.
If you do, you are probably human and it's o.k. We all miss it. And we could all benefit from a bit more of it.





Here's how= We all move to Portland! YES! Best idea I ever had!

And this is what we will do

Part II
We will spend our evenings watching movies, making cookies and laughing till morning. We can all find great places to work and fun new places to eat and play and spend money. And here are some more things that I have been dying to do for a while now.





Bubble Wrap


If you are anything like me {obsessive compulsive and very easily distracted} and you spend ridiculous amounts of time in front of a computer then I think you should click HERE and ENJOY!

You are great!

Question?

What do you know now that you wish you had known then? If you could meet yourself at age five what would you say?
Today I would tell this little girl to nock that grin right off her face and get real. Actually I would just tell her everything is going to work out- just fine. Even when it doesn't seem possible. That is all that little girl wants to hear. And she needs to hear it all the time.
