I want...

Actually I NEED this.  It would be great for crafting/sewing supplies.  Any estate sale/thrift friends - keep an eye out for me.

Lovely Liz

I am over the moon! Remember my first blog post ever where I gushed about Liz Demos & how much of an inspiration she was to me during my time in Savannah? Well, Design*Sponge has also figured out what an amazing person Liz is & has posted a huge feature on their blog all about this incredible lady. I am so very happy for Liz and hope this brings many wonderful opportunities her way. Yay!

Smokey Says....

My latest craft project was inspired by our Smokey the Bear obsession every year at the Cabin.  Thanks to our friend Ryan we even have Smokey the bear flannel sheets in a bedroom at the cabin.  (I did not know about the following article that my sister told me about  in this book titled - "Smokey Bear is a White Racist Pig" when I made my craft.  I still love Smokey's look, but will have to read this book to learn more about his upsetting past)

My craft involved linoleum printing. 

Basically you carve the linoleum and create a stamp. 

Roll paint on the stamp and you now have your print.  

(Notice the Bud Light in the picture - it obviously helped with the project.)

Loving...

This lamp today. Yes. Yes. Yes.

I listened to this NPR story this morning.  Could be a good read for all of us and our home obsession.
