We have a winner for my March giveaway! Congratuations to the winner – I’ve sent an email, so you know who you are! And thanks to everyone who entered – I will be doing giveaways fairly often so check back soon for more details!
I’ve been working on the inside of a 1972 pickup truck so that’s taking a lot of my time this weekend (I’ll share pictures soon) so instead of posting what I’m doing, I thought I’d post what I’m loving instead.
I think that I’m doing to keel over and die from how much I love Candice Stringham’s photography. She has been shooting these amazing pictures of beautiful ladies with umbrellas, “flying” all over New York. She has such a sense of whimsy and a touch of humor, I just can’t keep from going back for more.
Purl Soho might indeed have the best collection of high-end crafty goodness that I have ever seen. Plus, the online shop is great for people like me who live in a tragically unhip place with no access to the wonder that is their fabric collection. They have wonderfully hip patterns as well, definitely worth checking out.
Erin Jang’s blog is a great place for graphic design and craft inspiration. I love her custom wedding ideas, and there’s something that’s wonderfully handmade, yet still professional about her designs.
I’ve been looking at lots of flowers lately, as I’m doing all of the flowers for a friend’s wedding in June. I stumbled upon Wild at Heart and I love their gallery – full of inspiration. The flowers are romantic, yet modern, and there’s something about a huge ball of matching flowers that is just so striking.
Sometimes, I get a little down about the world, and I just need to read something funny. I’m not much of a joke person, and my humor personality seems to be most akin to that of Eddie Izzard. Which makes it difficult to find things that make me laugh. Puppet Pie, however, might be the best blog out there for putting a smile on your face. Words cannot even describe. You’ll have to see it for yourself.
And because I can never get enough of beatiful photography, I find myself drawn to Bloom, Grow, Love‘s blog. An amazing photographer, her images are captivating and have a wonderful dream-like quality to them (if only my dreams were this beautiful). If I’m ever able to create photos this gorgeous, I think I’ll be able to die happy.
That’s all for today. I’m embarking on a new project taking pictures of people’s pets, and I’m excited to see where it will take me. There’s all sorts of things that qualify as pets down here – dogs, cats, lizzards, goats. 😉 I’ll be posting photos as soon as I get them!
