notions and inspiration
vintage notions Originally uploaded by dressform.
first can i just say how much i love the word notion for its double entendre existence?
more of my score from the white elephant sale. may i ask why oh why did we have to switch from wooden spools to plastic for thread [i know i know... cost... but....]. i love wooden spools... they are so much nicer. weightier. lovlier to look at.
today for me is all about inspiration and trying to find it. esp. in the everyday... and so i direct you to a new blog happy mundane the title says it all....
thanks to my dad i discovered robert lang . yeah - you thought YOU were into origami. uh-huh. i am seriously in love with the moose .
you must visit this site. triton-cafe . speechless over the amounts of goodness
i want this chair. from anthropologie . yes. i'm addicted to them... and NO i can't afford it....
so... for those asking... garbo is doing much much better. although being on so much pred she is voraciously hungry [or as we say to her hung-a-ry]. she is licking cabinets and floors and shoes for any possible hint of flavor. but... neck seems to be much more stable. hurrah!
and.... we should all be starting devil in the white city come March 15th, K? few days away.....
