my friend liz

This is one of my best friends, Liz. She just got married this past December and is blogging about her life as a newlywed and all of the awesome projects she does! So.. click on this link and see what she has to share!!

I decided that it is much more enjoyable to read a blog if you feel like you actually know a little about the person writing. So.. here are some pics of Liz and I over the course of our friendship.

this pose became a tradition..

We were trying on some vintage aprons I had just bought.
We didn't actually bake anything in them.. just wore them around all night. lol

rollerblading..
We were trying to bring it back. We failed.

Something must have been very funny, or we though it would just make a cute picture. haha


my birthday June 2010.
Brian, my boyfriend, surprised me by coming in town for my birthday and somehow they all kept it a secret from me. I almost had a heart attack when I turned around and he was just standing there in line at Oklahoma Joes (my ALL TIME favorite restaurant) with us, but it was totally worth putting my life at risk. : ) ha

newest find

My love for lamps and seahorses has been united!! I went to HomeGoods yesterday and found an awesome seahorse lamp. It's not this exact one but pretty close. I was talking to my boyfriend's mom a couple weeks ago and trying to explain to her my philosophy on lighting. I think that by looking at a person's choice in lamps you can tell a lot about them! For example..

a practical person-- a lamp and table in one.

a person with a sense of humor

a person who appreciates organic things

a girly girl

a person who dares to be different

A person who loves the beach, knows that you can never have too many sea shells around your house, and knows that beach decor works ALL year long!!

You may have noticed already I added a new page to the blog, the shop page. I will be sharing some of my creations and latest finds. Enjoy!!
