OH so Loveley Funky

some people are just so darn talented these days...
for real... i could get lost on the internet searching through blogs/paintings/etsy/design sponge...now if only i could bring everyone here to Birmingham... it would be like a craft party everyday.

(picture above)

gosh darn this weekend was funky.
full of Halloween candy, horse back rides, and beautiful weather.
i was a little bummed.. i went to Sams Club to stock up on some candy... and i only got TWO tricker treaters...(HUH?)... that is what i get for living at the top of the hill:(

now all of the candy is nicely scattered throughout the house...
OH and I got some super sweet finds from the thrift this weekend.

good times.


alright so if you were not already aware i found TWO really great blogs....
here they are.... (kind of amazing)





also... does anyone have a favorite illustrator on ETSY...
I'm looking to buy some prints for my room.

a few purple crazies.

ill share a few pics from them antique stores we stopped by in Atlanta, GA. Lily and I (my lil sis with the purple hair) seem to get lost in thrift stores and antique shops. We usually find ourselves taking more pictures for art ideas, than we do buy items.Lily found this super cool paper mache fox head. It was a little too pricy, but most certainly going on my craft list.I felt inspired to share with you a touch of one of my favorite colors.

Purple never really goes out of style, and it just seems to match everything right? well almost everything. I would have to say one of my absolute favorites... the elf jacket. Beautifully crafted from recycled sweaters. I keep reminding myself that ONE day I will create something very similar with all of the grungy sweaters I have kept over the years. I cant seem to throw away anything these days.

ALSO. do you like the new tape accents? I finally found someone who offers them as freebies. Check it out here.This gal has oodles of other wonderful goodies.

I hope everyone is having a splendid week. I am most certainly looking forward to this weekend. It will be my last Pepper Place craft weekend, and my BEST friend EMMY is coming to visit.
Oh boy things are gonna get crazy.

oh. and i am thinking of redesigning my blog again.
why? you ask. well i just like change.

have a splendid weekend.

Purple has to be one of my favorite colors.I used to own a purple JanSport book pack in middle school. I wore it everyday to school for 6 years. I finally moved on to my leather satchel "The Idea Bag" which I found at J&J's junk in Birmingham. Here are a few bright and happy photos for you to enjoy.

Directions how to make this wonderful cake here.
