Textile Queen

I love these fabrics I have no idea where I found them but none the less I love them....

Ebay why don't you love me?

First Blueprint then Domino why do all the greats in the magazine world disappear, currently I am bidding on some back issues of Blueprint on ebay and I even got those dang counters that tell you down to the the wire how much time is left in the auction, and I just can't win! I'm freaking out a little can you tell? My love for magazines is a little out of control...I know...maybe they offer MOA class to help me "MOA",  meaning Magazine Obsessions Anonymous, or not....please if you have any tips to help me win COMMENT below asap!

Little White Tree

Found this little cutie and can't wait to make one myself I have a slight obsession with white trees even wooden ones apparently. This is a golden Christmas opportunity so grab some dowel rods cut them slightly larger and taper towards the top also criss crossing them to form a cross hot glue them in the center and just stack alternating every which a way and voila! Oh and don't forget to paint them white and let them completely dry first..wink ;) happy tree creating, below I have finally put my tree up despite my crazy hectic lifestyle..running a business, keeping house,buying Christmas presents which as you can see below I am currently failing at, but don't you worry they will be there Santa is coming to town real soon and he will save me.

My little daily delight of a Christmas tree, my poor husband... and his overly feminine wife makes him suffer yet another year with the white tree adorned with gold bows & pink and silver antique ornaments, ahhh the joy it brings to my life, this is a picture of me below after I saw it lit for the first time. I love Christmas!

Don't I just look so delighted?

Festive Food and Beautiful Pictures

Eye candy for the day.... which by the way got me thinking while I was reading one of my favorite blogs talking about being a prop stylist that it really would be fun to do that one day doesn't the very top photo look even more delicious the way it is arranged? I love it, so festive and fun, I need to add that to the top of my"what I want to be when I grow up" list.

Missing my good friend today...

Don't you just hate that time goes by so fast in life? Now my friend Kylee is married with a cute little family and one on the way! Life is so crazy that we are now old enough to be parents and married and all the stuff we used to dream about and have sleep overs and talk about now we are living that future! I love you Kylee miss you lots. Her cute family photographs were taken by NatalieLawPhotography.
