H&M for your home

I was just getting caught up on Apartment Therapy and I ran across this post. The Swedish apparel company, H&M (Henne & Mauritz) was my favorite store growing up Austria and is still in my top 5. It's just a little more difficult to maintain my infatuation living here in Iowa. Nonetheless, I was thrilled to see that they are branching out to their very own Fashion For Your Home line. I found these pictures on nitrolicious. Boy, I am having a hard time being content where I'm at these days...

Etsy Sale

This icy winter is nearing its end and I have some new items that I'll be adding to my shop soon. But first I want to move some of my winter accessories. All scarves are 50% off!! Check them out here.




My dear friend Jen was so kind to take some new photos for me and sweet little Nikki is adorable as always! Thanks girls!

Oh Deer! (Part 1)

For Christmas my boss drew my name for our annual secret Santa game. Apparently, I'd been talking about wanting deer antlers and he's a hunter. So, it was perfectly natural to get a deer skull as a Christmas present from him...a little awkward for the rest of my co-workers, but awesome for me!

I've been working on it on and off for the last few weeks and I think I'm finally happy with it.

Paper Art

My project this past week was completing what I started at Urbanestic's last DIY Night. The idea was to make boxes out of old magazines and newspaper. However, some of the girls were making brooches, which inspired me to make new art for my bare walls. I started with a cloud and it just evolved from there.

DM Juice features Jacob Tyler Wolfgang

Meet the band: Jacob Tyler Wolfgang

Who: Jacob Tyler Wolfgang (vocals, guitar), Sarah Wolfgang (vocals, keyboard)
Hear him: myspace.com/jacobtylerwolfgang
Influences: Elliot Smith, Sun Kill Moon, Wilco,...

It's really too bad that they didn't get all the facts right though. I guess I ought to learn how to play guitar anyway and it really wouldn't hurt to get a degree in Michigan, besides my MRS.

If only these could BE MINE?
