Used some random leftovers in the shop to make a little arrangement since my roommate and I threw a party this past weekend. Probably should have taken some pictures of us looking cute and whatnot, but too bad. Isn't that little elephant dude the best ever? I got him at the Holiday Indie Craft Experience market. And yes I painted pink and orange eyeballs on my mirror.
Just some little bits of holiday cheer around my house! (My kind mother sent me her camera but for a good long while I couldn't figure out how to change the format back to regular proportions, hence the elongated images.)
This year as per requested I started like all the other calendars of the world, with Sunday. It will be $25 and I will update the paypal so it works, though I am perfectly happy (in fact would prefer) if you would like to pay me in non-internet fashions, but I realize that only works if you live in Atlanta or Tallahassee. If you would like to order multiple through paypal, please message me and I can make you a special listing so you don't pay shipping on each individual calendar. Same goes if you live out of the US.
So when I walk to work in the morning I love to sing along to my music, it's not a very populated path and I get it out of my system before I am surrounded by coworkers who may not enjoy my singing as much as I do. When I really want to (pretend to) belt it out, it's Neko Case all the way. She is the coolest chick around. I saw her live for the first time and she was positively fantastic and endearing and bad ass. Her new album is great, you should give it a listen.
This is one of those songs that makes me want to dance and feel like I'm cooler than I am. It gets me pumped and prepared for work.
I listen to Rilo Kiley ridiculously a lot. In fact, all Jenny Lewis ventures are good with me. When I'm feeling angsty (which seems to be a lot these days), it's Jenny all the way. Rilo Kiley put out an album of never released tracks (Rkives) this year to the extreme happiness of obsessives such as myself.
These ranunculus are very reminiscent of the dahlias I posted about, they were absolutely perfect and glowing with saturated color. Something about that mix of burgundy and fuchsia is just really getting me lately!
