about to explode


















This is my favorite time of year. The morning after Thanksgiving we always go buy our Christmas trees and unload all things Christmas from the attic. I am about to explode with ideas of things to make. I am on hunt for anything that I can cover with glitter. I just discovered D.Blumchen and Co. They have reproduction and vintage supplies, ornaments and more.

If I was heading to the tropics for thanksgiving...

















I would be tempted to pick up these deals on the Kate Spade web site. They are at least 50% off the original price.

j crew




I am in love with j crew's fall bags and they just got better. My 3 favorites are on sale for 149.99 to 199.99 and they will take off another 20% thru monday if you enter code EXTRA20 at checkout. Now that is a Merry Christmas.

the curiosity shop



I love brousing about in the curiosity shop. They always seem to have creative things that you don't see everywhere else. I think that I am going to get the red phone for my hubbie...or should we both have matching ones?

Jewels for my stocking







Not that anyone is thinking of my stocking. But if they were I love these vintage pieces from laralewis on etsy. All are under $25...I think that is in Santa's budget.


etsy children's find..DaisyChains

















With 5 daughters between the ages of 3 and 13 I have a lot of "girlie" stocking stuffers to buy. I love these hair clips from DaisyChains.

Mindy from three little birds emailed me today because she found my clothing through stephmodo. The treat was mine when I then looked at her web site and blog. Mindy's photos are so beautiful and I love how she uses light. Above are some of my favorites.
