flowers & tea
Heather of flowers & tea was sweet enough to include my little “love you” card - a newbie to my shop - in her post on Valentine’s Day stationery. I love the company my card is in. Thanks muchly, Miss Heather!
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone - XOXO!
Swooning…
Springtime is almost here (nevermind the mega snowstorm thats on its way.) Be inspired, people. Gosh, a bump in my allowance would be most helpful.

Inspiration: Wonderful Walls
Check out the instax-awesomeness I found on Creature Comforts. (Speaking of Creature Comforts, check out their sweet Fuji Instax Giveaway!!) Must find a wall for this…

my little wishlist
Wow, tomorrow is December! (And happy belated Thanksgiving by the way! I’m thankful for all of you.) Where has the year gone?? I have been so busy with the house that November just flew by. I did find time to compile a quick list of Etsy things I am loving in a serious way…you know, in case you were wondering what to get me this year.

Vintage Love
Here in Wisconsin things have been cooling down and getting almost fall-like. The leaves are even starting to turn a little bit! Its crazy…but I am loving it. I tried to find some apple cider yesterday but its still too early for that. On the other hand, it is a good time to take a look at my summer wardrobe and put together some summer-to-fall outfits…
Here are some vintage Etsy cuties that would work perfectly in this not-very-hot, not-yet-cold weather. Happy September!! xoxo

If you haven’t seen it…
So I saw 500 Days of Summer this weekend. Loved it. Its not a sugar coated, you-know-how-it-ends kind of love story that totally misrepresents life. It does, however, pose a very controversial, subjective question: What is love? Is love even real? Just go see it before I give it away…
Bonus: impressive soundtrack featuring the Smiths, Doves and a rare cover by She & Him. Regina Spektor’s Us starts the movie perfectly; I actually didn’t love that song until I saw this movie and now I cannot get enough. And then there’s this lovely gem from The Temper Trap, Sweet Disposition:

Weekend Vintage
I’ve got some fantastic vintage gems for this weekend’s picks. Looks like I was really feeling green and purple tonight. I think all of these super girly pieces are perfect for whatever your Saturday plans might be….brunch, shopping, hot date, whatev. They’re all so cute and will easily transition from day to night. Happy weekend!!! xoxo.
