newest purchase.

i have gotten bit by the goodwill bug.

NOW DON'T JUDGE SO QUICK!

been talking with a friend, and she helped me to see the little gems that could be found at goodwill. and since vintage is so chic these days....i figured, i'll give it a go.
callie and i braved it, and i found more than just a little gem. i found EIGHT little gems :) a set of glasses that i think are so ridiculously fabulous i can hardly handle myself. so here a few pictures of the little green guys!
i was a little apprehensive at first. had to put just one of the goblets in my basket to let it marinate for a bit. finally gave in, and im so glad i did!

when i got home, i was watching a new fav of mine, Bones, and my goblets were in the show!!!! they are famous goblets, which makes me love them even more. emily deschanel drank out of my goblets....


ok, probably not, but that's what im going to believe :)

the weepies.

absolutely epic group. they are bringing such joy into my life currently.

i don't even really know how to describe them. but every time i hear their music, my heart swells a bit and i can't help but smile.

i was driving in the car the other day and for some reason, that question popped into my head "so who's your favorite band." UGH. how i loathe that question! it's a question that dumps you right into a box. don't categorize me by music! ew. i guess that is very much a seattle thing. people only know how to relate to each other through music there. ha. funny. no wonder i didn't REALLY fit in.

but i wish someone would ask me that now. cause i currently have an answer. and it's the weepies. go listen to them. they are lovely. in every possible way. :)

new happenings.

my brother would be so proud of me. i felt victory in just clicking the blogger tab on my favorites bar :)
wanted to post some pics of my new little project. the last coat of paint is drying as we speak. i am creating a little vignette for the new house i am getting ready to move into. pictures of that coming in the next....month. boy i wish those girls would move out quite quick.
step one of the project. paint my old kanakuk trunk to a fantastically stormy blue/green. it's called tropical skies. the name of the paint swatch takes high priority in the choosing of paint colors. this one does wonderfully. a little kahlua and cream helps, along with the madonna episode of glee :)
this was the project i finished probably a week or two ago. i modge podged this fantastic paper that my mom and sister in law got me for christmas onto my...
mirror! don't judge the sweatpant look. it's fierce!
im planning on putting my mirror on-top of the trunk to use as a full body mirror.

i like it. and am really excited.
now onto picking out a duvet cover. urgh. i was lazy and didn't order the one i waned from anthro. now im perusing the internet for covers. most interweb surfing sessions end in me feeling as though i need to go shower off the sludge of grossie-ness that comes from websites such as jcpennys.com and beddingsuperstore.com.
yes....i've stooped that low. ugh. absolutely hate admitting that. i've finally narrowed it down to my two favs. a potterybarn teen one, and a target one. time to vote NOW!

Here's the one from target....
Here is the one from
Pottery Barn...
