Story People

I love Story People. I found them at the Abacus Gallery in Boothbay Harbor, Maine two summers ago and I've stalked them ever since. I look for them online, and try to spot new ones and look forward to my new, yearly tradition of purchasing one every summer in Maine.

My latest says "Most people don't know that there are angels whose only job is to make sure you don't get too comfortable & fall asleep & miss your life."

I love it.

I mostly just love the color and the playful, childlike, abstract feel they all have. That's probably also why they make me cry when i read them. True!!

Rugs rugs rugs!

When I was in Portland, ME this summer I went into a fabulous store called Company C. I signed up for a mailing list while I was there and I periodically get emails from them about new promotions, sales and events. Granted, I don't live in Maine or Mass. (where their locations are) nor do I really have the means at this point to buy much of their stuff!!

Despite this - I love to look around. And boy, do I look around.

<--- I've had a particular fetish, lately, for rugs. Like this one!


I'm fascinated by these rugs. Really, I am. I find myself having visions of where to use them and how and how I could build an entire room off of a color scheme or style of a RUG! (I know, I know. Just call me crazy ;)!! )

Check out my other favorites at
Anthropologie!

musings

I downloaded a flash template from flashmo.com. I quite like it, but i'm having trouble fixing it to do what i want it to do. "No matter!" I exclaimed to myself, "I'll just make myself a new blog!"

Why?

The reason i decided to create yet another blog is because I'm finding SO MUCH COOL STUFF online lately that I need somewhere to compile it.

Take Rifle, for example. I love Anna's stuff so much it makes me squirm. Couldn't you just wet yourself over the thought of having these invitations??!?!

Since discovering her fabulous blog, I've been discovering designer upon designer upon designer, blog after blog and I just wanted to be a part of it, dangit!

So i will finish my music degree and head off to photog/design school. I will learn about colors and calligraphy and all those fun things I love. It is what i hereby resolve to do. And it starts now.
