hi *wave*

♥ Comments (3) ♥

hi there. sorry i haven’t said anything recently. I’ve got some work for the month of feb and am busier than usual. but i did like the following things:

1. getting to knit with the kelley girls last nite at cosmic cafe. meeting all of them was fun and they are all very nice.
2. making money…after living really broke for four months this opportunity to work steadily for a month is pretty awsome.
3. the little white dog that barked at me this morning and scared the crap out of me on my way to the train, i did enjoy that.
4. the possibility of meeting up with some of the crafty ladies next week.
5. possibly meeting joy for drinks tomorrow after work.
6. calling zander after work today and asked him if he missed auntie jen and he said YES! and AWW!

i’d like to remind y’all of this as well because we have cool limited edition prizes to giveaway!

stuff and things

♥ Comments (4) ♥

hi everyone. I’m glad you all liked my self portrait tuesday headache dresses. I can’t believe the crazy things i wore. And just so you know the last picture i did as an 11 x 14, matted, framed and gave to my mother for mother’s day back in the 90’s.

so first off amieeroo tagged me with this little meme here:
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don’t search around and look for the “coolest” book you can find. Do what’s actually next to you.

well your in luck. the nearest book to me was right infront of me on my desk. It’s a design book, sorry to disappoint. So there isn’t any sentance so i took a picture of page 123. The book is about the evolution of a music magazine from the 90’s called RayGun. David Carson was an editor/designer for quite sometime. This book chronicles the rise and fall of the magazine and some other crap david carson was up to. if you care anythng about type you will know that david carson became quite popular for his unreadable type treatments and cropped and chopped layouts. here’s page 123:

and the cover:

i’m not going to tag you but if you feel like doing it i’d love to see what book is near you!

here’s some other stuff:
did you go look at Rebecca’s blog and shop? if you didn’t go look she has bags with MUSTACHES! MUSTACHES PEOPLE! sorry to raise my typing voice but you see that is just too cool. so anyways here’s the mary janes i am making her

they will be pink and brown and a twin set. i’ll explain that later more when they are done.

next up i got this faboulous card from Lisa she used her doggie, Skippy, and her Cat, Neo on the chinese/lunar year card!

and finally i want to say thank you to Lesa for these little treats she gave me last nite. she was just out shopping and thought of a few of us. so sweet of her! (also go look at her kitty bedson her site)

a measuring tape and some lint attracting sheets you can stuff in yer purse and a little orange drawstring bag! THANK YOU! I think i am all caught up now!
show me some page 123’s that’s nearest to you!

Self Portrait Tuesday

♥ Comments (10) ♥

this is it. the moment you’ve all been waiting for. the debut of not one but three headache dresses. Babydoll dresses were big in the very early 90’s. Here i am circa
1990 playing in the photography room with my best friend joe. we used to bring a tape player int ehre and listen to the smiths and new order and run around snapping pictures

headache dress number 3: black and white daisies

not very headache inducing yet? what is that you want more? ok here i am circa 1991

headache dress number 2: polka dots (what’s the deal with that fan anyhow?)

the winner of all headache dresses will give you VIETNAM FLASHBACKS

headache dress numbero uno

Monday monday

♥ Comments (5) ♥

a few things for your monday pleasure

1. go wish erin a happy birthday!!

2. i found the best little online shop ever. you simply must go check out rebecca’s online shop/blog and tell her piddleloop sent you. i simply must have this
and one of these i mean COME ON A MUSTACHE ON A TOTE OR CLUTCH PEOPLE! this is serious business.

3.  i forgot to show y’all my favorite gift i received in the white elephant xmas. can you guess who it is at age 10?

4. i took pictures of erin’s beautiful Lady E wrap! it is so nice!

5. this DIY felted flower kit totally rules..also kelley is really really nice i emailed her to ask if she had “baby shit yellow” because i like a muted bland color pallette and she totally delivered. check it out

6. i thought i’d try spinning and give it a whirl and ordered this spin kit from hello yarn, now i am afraid to even touch it. it’s just so pretty.

7. look at the project pouch wendy made for me during my birthday week! ( we had a slight delay with a serger being broken, but we are back in business)

8. there’s a new knit along for any of you who have never tried a shawl before (like me) or who want to make one for fun. I’m hosting the perfect pie along.
just click on the pretty picture up there under the mustache banner and check it out.

9. if you have a pair of mary janes please let me know. i am going to go thru the KAL and post links to any sweet mary janes y’all have made

10. be on the look out for my SPT featuring the headache dress

♥ Comments (8) ♥

Today while zander and i ate a delish luch of perogi’s i noticed the animals begging and working hard to look extra cute. Lucy never puts up her ears because it looks like it takes a lot of effort.. so out somes the camera!
i’m holding my massive ears up look how cute i am GIMMIE PEROGI!


samuel the beagle works the concecntraion angle


we taught lucy how to roll over for a treat action shot!


samuel always sits funny like this


what do you have in my face? get that thing out of my face

ok so now y’all are sick of the dogs. what else is on the list…oh right firends and cupcakes! Lesa brought cupcakes to our little meeting last nite to celebrate mine and erin’s birthday’s. so here’s some friends eating cupcake shots (self portrait courtsey of erin) note i’m basically smashing my face into the cupcake




lesa looking at ann who was playing with my camera


and ann posing with GIGANTOR KAT


speaking of GIGANTOR KAT ann crocheted him from the japanese craft book she used worsted weight and he came out huge and cute some shots of him




he even has his own carrying case


i got some awsome birthday loot from ann (note the squirrel holding the book mark)


so there’s all of the birthday mayhem make sure you go wish erin a happy birthday on or before january 24th. also be sure to cheer her on for the knitting olympics. zander and i plant on making signs to cheer her on. i leave with two more pictures to round out my massive picture post (sorry but it’s more fun with pictures) a pair of mary janes for a friend’s b-day and some new knitting stitch markers to be added to the shop




**also i am so glad all of you enjoyed our wilson phillips picture because well if YOU HOOOOOOLD ON FOR ONE MORE DAY…. i’ve been whisked away with the large cane exit stage left
