It’s hard to believe that the frosty days of January has already melted into February…..It isn’t that February is warmer…in fact, the cold is colder, the days drearier, and the weather is typically yuckier. But I always feel the breath of Spring once the calendar page turns from January to February. Maybe it’s […]

I’ve been doing a lot of short-hop flights….about forty minutes in the air each way. On longer flights, I catch upon favorite TV shows on my IPod….but on shorter ones, I just read. This morning, I was so disappointed that we arrived right on time…because it meant I had to put my […]

For quite some time, I’ve had this secret obsession–iHanna. This girl is uber-cool. She crafts and crafts and crafts… and creates some of the coolest things ever. My favorite items I’ve come across lately from Hanna Anderson?

I adore this jean purse. If I wore a smaller size, I’d try and make […]

desperately-seeking-clarity

Clarity can be so elusive. When it comes to our own lives and relationships, that is. However, we have perfect clarity when it comes to the lives of our friends, co-workers, family members, random strangers, and anyone with the surname Lohan, Spears, or Hilton.

… Tuesdai Noelle!
Born in Tacoma, Washington, Tuesdai began her crafting 3 years ago with a pair of white jeans. Turning them into a work of art, Tuesdai decorated them with “dirty handprints and lips.” After that, the pieces came rolling out… including denim skirts and jeans.

Skinny Bitch - yeah, that’s right, I said it … Skinny!

skinny-bitch-yeah-thats-right-i-said-it-skinny

Normally, I would be setting yet another new year resolution to lose weight right about now. This year, I’ve decided to instead select 3 words to inspire me throughout the year after reading Deb’s article, “Three Little Words“. That being said, getting healthy is definitely on my list for this year, and I’m sure […]

Getting to know…

getting-to-know

As the second day of 2008 ticks away, I keep asking myself, “Self… what do you want to do with the New Year?” Resolutions are so last year. So, instead of making some lame promise I won’t keep (ie: stop eating chocolate or swearing like a sailor), I decided to just make a […]
