Kind of Obsessed


Hello all!  How have you been?  I have been super, super busy lately.  So, once my cell phone contract expired last Saturday I decided to treat myself and get something I have been lusting over for awhile... as in, when they first came out.  An iPhone.  Necessary?  Nope.  Do I love it?  Yep!  I have been playing with Instagram, but I haven't really had a chance to sit and play with this toy like I want.  So, help a girl out!  Give me some tips and what apps and especially what photo apps are the best in your opinion.

I have had some issues posting Instagram photos to facebook... like I have to keep unlinking my account and relinking it, but they post to Instagram just fine. So, what is the deal with that?  I feel like a little bit of a dummy.

Share your wisdom... I know I can look up all the answers, but I want to hear from you.

ps... I think my husband is jealous of Siri *wink*

bye for now~

Friday Etsy Favorites *Vintage Goodness*

hello all!  It seems like it has been for.ever since I did a Friday Etsy Favorites.  But, since we are still at home while the Mr. is running the shoppe, I thought I would do them... and break my own rules.  You see, I sometimes don't show what I really, REALLY love if it is vintage... sometimes it seems that someone swoops in and buys it from me.  So, today, I thought I would show you all the *Vintage Goodness* that I am lusting over...


oh my.... look at that vintage perfections... patina... rust... love!
found~ urgestudio


love the aqua on this sweet religious medallion


need.more.vintage.trophies.
found~ sadieolive



If I ever was going to go crazy nuts and start collecting millions of one thing, I think it would be vintage bride and groom cake toppers... adore this one.  We had a great vintage cake topper
found~ izzydaisy


I wonder if I would enjoy upholstering more if I had this sweet aqua number...


What is not to love about this little carafe set?


adore this sweet office note pad 
found~ GillyGrey


okay, I have oodles of ironstone.  And a couple of these same dishes already... that doesn't stop me from wanting to get these as well!



I have this strange fascination with vintage dishracks... I don't know what it is... maybe it is the pretty aqua coating or the fact that they are really useful... whatever it is, I think this needs to be in my cupboard!


and this sweet little diver stamp... well, I didn't let it get past me... it is mine.all.mine.
It reminds me of this motel in Eureaka Springs that the Mr. and I drove past when we took a little trip.... it was called the Joy Motel and it had this great image of a diver on it.
even though this is gone, this shoppe has loads of fun vintage and handmade


Okay, so go pillage my faves and make me so sad!  The hyena and I stayed at home today because he still sounds sick.  So, we are going to work on our third art project of the morning and maybe take a little nap in a bit.  Have a lovely weekend!  Oh, and there is still time to enter to win the Custom Chalk Giveaway!

bye for now!

Hunting 2012

 Hello all!!  I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!  I skipped out a little early from the shoppe so the hyena could take a nap and instead of cleaning up the remnants of Christmas and the dishes, I thought I would share what I will be hunting for in 2012.

For the Shoppe~



I would love.love.love. a vintage cash register for the shoppe.


And, I also have my eye out for some vintage price holders... I would have my resident graphic designer make me up some cool, vintage-y price signs.


And, a farmhouse table... for the shoppe... maybe move it to the house when I get tired of looking at it there *wink*


I have a repro dress form, but I would like a vintage one... one can live at home and the other at the shoppe.  I like to call that a win-win!


I would also love to have a rack like this one for my kitchen... I am thinking ironstone bowls would be perfect on it... and I just happen to have a *few* ironstone bowls!


I am also wanting to find a really cool vintage piece... like a library cabinet or something with patina and charm... here is another I love!



More~ I want more vintage trophies and loving cups


I am also wanting to trade out our side chairs in the living room.... something with a bit more detail or lines.  The ones we have are nice, but I want something a little more... different, I guess


Mr. Hughes has been wanting to do this for awhile... I love the look!


These are nice... probably a bit too fancy for our space though


These are so fun!  Love the color combination!

If you would like the sources or to follow along on what I am hunting this year, here is my pinboard for finds I would like to acquire this year.  So, what are YOU looking for?  Vintage-wise *wink*

Okay, be back soon with some shoppe photos... we added a organic soap line this week!  They smell great!  Oh, and also, I will have a little giveaway next week as well!

bye for now!
