Thank you all for your lovely comments about my hair tutorial–and a big hello to all the people who stopped in over the weekend to check the post out! My jaw literally hit the floor; as of Monday evening I had over 5,000 hits to that post alone. Ah, the power of the internet. As my sister declared to me: “Your famous on the web!” Well, not quite, but these little things never cease to amuse me. hehe.

Did you all have splendid weekends? I hope so! My Beau came home after a month out at sea, and it was so nice to have him back. Monday was the beginning of the summer semester, and I’m taking two classes. One is thankfully only 6 weeks, and the other is self paced. So, if I’m a good girl and really apply myself (as in: don’t get distracted), I could be done by July. We shall see! The biggest downer is that it is such a long drive to get to the campus one of my classes is at; but I’m planning on sweetening the deal a bit by spying out the nearby thrift shops.

Speaking of thrift shops, the photo at the beginning of this post is some pretty, vintage Pyrex dishes Mom bought for me a couple weeks ago! I found an entire set in an antique shop, and was quite smitten with the white and turquoise scheme. I think these will be lovely alternatives to formal china, since I’m not terribly fond of having dishes that only are used a few times a year. Utilitarian dish ware suits me just fine!

I realized I didn’t post any Vintage Monday goodies last week! Oh dear… and this new semester schedule isn’t going to be particularly “blogging schedule” friendly. lol. But here are a couple new images that have been inspiring me the last few weeks and I hope you’ll enjoy too!

Have a lovely Tuesday my friends!

    wonderful dishes! And that’s some quilt there in the back. I’m currently quilt obssessed and that one is now on the favourites list.
