painted pumpkins



I know Halloween is over but I couldn't resist posting a few photos of my little project. Inspired by these lovely pumpkins I decided to break out the spray paint and masking tape to try my hand at pumpkin painting. It was remarkably easy and probably took me a total of 10 minutes. I can't wait to try a new pattern next year!

*I love that my little chevron pumpkin matches our new rug perfectly!

i heart japanese masking tape



I heart Japanese masking tape. Imagine the crafting possibilities! These little packages from Design Within Reach are so perfect I almost wouldn't want to open them.... almost.

*Bonus: The wooden tape dispenser is on sale!

1 tequila, 2 tequila, 3 tequila.... more

so, i may spent the last few weeks collecting about twenty bottles of patron tequila... no, kiwi and i do not have a drinking problem. but, i did think they would make some pretty amazing centerpieces for the wedding. luckily, my future brother in law has some connections at a local restaurant and was able to hook us up. i totally stole this idea after a recent trip to the deli (my latest obsession) and have never looked back. now if we could just figure out what type of flowers to put in them...
*we spent a lovely sunday afternoon peeling off all the labels... not fun.

do you yudu?


for some reason kiwi has always been fascinated with screen printing. it started with this book and just didn't stop. so for his birthday i decided to surprise him with his very own personal screen printing machine... the yudu. i read an awesome review on design mom and i just couldn't resist. the sad thing is, we've been so busy lately we have yet to take it out of the box (his birthday was march 9th) maybe this weekend instead of doing home projects we can let our creative juices flow! any ideas for a rockin' t-shirt motif? let's get excited and make things!
