P.S. I love this blog

For some crazy awesome crafting 
Here is a fantastic example:

Welcome to Mixed Media 101.  I’m totally roped into RHINESTONES and ROPE! This unexpected combo makes for a fun and chic dynamic duo.  Combine hard and soft textures, dull and sparkly accents, layering materials in sporadic and whimsy swirls.  
Swirl and glue your rope, Knot and snip ends, dazzle with rhinestones, slip on your earring wire, and you have a phenomenal pair of earrings!  (PS- try www.mjtrim.com for lots of decorative metallic rope options).
Expect the unexpected, and you will be pleasantly pleased!  After all, fashion should be fun! Throw out the rules, mix and match till your little heart desires.
Class dismissed!


P.S. I'm so spray painting

rainy day.




Its a bit wet in the lowcountry today
thats okay though
I love a rainy day
It gives me the perfect excuse to snuggle up
(while the laundry is going hopefully)

a bit of earth

its kinda a secret that I was born in San Francisco
~I'm not ashamed by any means~
but it kinda knocks my southern status just a bit*
your not even really considered a local unless your born in the city I live in now
South Carolinians take their native status very seriously


the last time I visited California
I was a little girl
and my parents took me to the City Lights Bookstore
I picked out The Secret Garden
which I promptly devoured on the plane ride home

Check out this bite sized
Secret Garden 
a little Etsy love

~available here~

to brighten your day

A house without books is like a room without windows. ~Heinrich Mann



I love Charleston in the fall
humidity disappears
 weather is near perfect
 night air is crisp
 days are sunny and warm
and...
The Charleston County Library has a yearly book sale
~that totally rocks my socks off~
Tens of thousands of books
starting as just $1.00



I seriously plan my week around this book sale
I think the smell of old books
lures me in
