inspiration week #81

[ click for larger view + sources! ]

Another weekend already! Can someone please tell me where the days are going to?! hehe. As usual, we seem to have saved up loads of errands for this weekend, although I’m hoping to squeeze in some shoe shopping and recording a couple new video tutorials (providing I can find a table top mirror. It helps when doing make up and hair, you know!). What are you weekend plans? I do hope they’re a bit more fun and exciting than mine!

Wow, I had not been reading Ashe’s series, but those are some FASCINATING ideas! I’ll pore over it more this weekend for sure. Thanks for the tip, doll.

I wish I had the chance to decide for myself what to do this weekend, but sadly, I’m working all of it! On saturday night though, I will be watching the Eurovision Song Contest on tv. Hope you get the time to do some tutorials, and if not, have a lovely weekend anyway!

Unfortunately nothing exciting happening here. The car finally bit it…and *someone* never made up a POA so that I can buy a car. My mom has been shuttling the oldest back & forth to preschool this week…At least I didn’t have anything that needed to be done.

Oooh… I saw that yellow 30s dress on etsy. *le sigh* Matt and I drooled over it and it sold so fast I didn’t even get much of a chance to get tempted!
I heart your inspiring blog. Your photos you choose and take are always just what I need to get the creative juices flowing.

I just love those photos above! Each one is so nice, and I would have to have to chose one I liked best. Those dresses in the upper left are just wonderful. It all makes me smile!

OK. This is the last time I hit “add comment” before proofreading. I meant to say, “….I would hate to have to choose one….” Sheesh!

i love all the colors in this post! (and you updated blog header – when did ya do that?)…

i also love the rag curl tutorial. i used to do them all the time when i was little, i think i was inspired by laura ingalls or something. once i did them in college and my roommate’s cat took one look at me and hid! she didn’t recognize me, apparently.

have a lovely weekend! i’m working. but today I did splurge on some remix shoes that were 40% off (they are about 15 mins from my house) and i’m super excited about the grandma-chic-ness of them.

ok, that’s was a long comment – happy shoe shopping if you get around to it!!

Aw, a sweetie again! Thanks so much for mentioning me

Not sure where my week went either, but perhaps I can sew this weekend.
