Bedroom DREAMS

Someday I hope to make this a reality... Think a real grown up space with real furniture. I think this will have to become a reality in bits and pieces. The furniture piece will have to wait until we have the money and Rick is done with school. But to keep the dreams alive for now....
I LOVE thee depth the Black wall adds to this small room - which is perfect for our space.
the DRAMA of the HIGH head board also LOVE the grey walls.... I guess I could make this happen with some craftiness.
This is really DREAMING... LARGE windows, Large space..someday.

Crisp Ripe Apples

Last weekend Rick and I went to the Apple Orchard in Carver County with our Favorite little Family...The Lopah's.  Sometimes I get tired just thinking about having a family with 3 kids...But then I get tired with just Bacon.  Anyway we had amazing weather and took some new fun pictures too!

 I have to sneak this picture of Bacon in here because he is Flying!!! I can't believe I captured this shot!

Birthday Wishes

Some of you may know that this Saturday is my Birthday.  It's not a milestone but a birthday none the less. I have compiled a small list of some things I am wishing for these days.  I hope this helps my husband the most.  He says I am hard to shop for. 
1. Original Hunter Rain Boots in Aubergine, 2. Something little and fun like cute masking tape...hey its creativity for every day uses - foud on nonesuch things ( I am not suggesting that I get tape from my husband), 3. Adorable Alfred Shopper from Lisa Stickley in waterproof oilcloth canvas. 4. Mini Cupcakes by Melissa...YUM! I remember trying these when I was in NY last fall with Ruthann. 5. Aadorable bow headband from Emmadime..Honestly everything on her site is so cute!, 6. Splurgworthy blush brush in the softest of bristles...I honestly don't even care if it's a name brand brush I just want to be pampered.

All Grown Up

So last weekend Rick, Bacon, and I drove the 5 plus hours to Milwaukee.  To our surprise Bacon slept almost the whole way. He LOVES being  in the car. We spent lots of time with my brothers kids and I took out the camera once again to shoot them in action.  They are definitely a lot more expressive then they used to be. Elijah is full of funny faces and actually likes being in front of the camera now. 
Little Elizabeth is really growing into her features. I think she is becoming such a pretty mix of my brother and her mommy.  The sweatshirt she is wearing is one of my designs.  I love it!!  Buy you’re here online or at your local Target Store. P.Ss it comes in Pink too...

A Bigger Piece of Bacon

Bacon has grown so much since I took the above pictures... The below pictures I took about 2 weeks ago and he is already 30 lbs and growing.
 

Junk Bonanza 2010

             
I had the Lucky opportunity to attend Junk Bonanza in Shakopee last Friday for a creative off site.  It was so inspiring! Around every corner new and exciting things were displayed so perfectly.  Take a peek at all the wonderful vintage and not so vintage items I gawked at all day Friday.

World's most AMAZING pie topper!

Previously you saw my mini post on the cake topper I made for L & J's wedding.  I was asked to make a PIE topper for S & K's  county fair themed wedding. When she first approached me with her idea I was very skeptical...How long would this take me...Can't you just buy it...How am I going to sew teeny tiny clothes...???  However, like I discover with most projects I start I am truly overtaken by excitement and energy once I start seeing the fruits of my labor.  It was well worth the hours I put into it and I know S & K LOVED it! 
Some may say I missed my calling but I think I have just opened a door.  Please feel free to contact me - I can start taking orders now.... (I can't forget to Thank my wonderful Hubby who has a passion for miniatures and single handedly took on making the mini glasses!)
