space cats & jewelry

Well, here it is folks!  I feel bad for the crappy iphone pictures, but my lil bedroom makeover is finished!  It pretty much revolved around the necklaces, but let me tell ya, it had to be done.  Our bedroom is super teeny, so it definitely needed a little love to make it more livable.   Ben and I painted our once dingy light blue walls with a fresh coat of plain white and then I rearranged some of our artwork and hung up my "statement" necklaces.  I heart this space cat print so much.  It was a gift from a lovely lady and the jester type people were from my cousin... don't know where she found them, but I've always had a fondness for them!

what the eff i've been up to!

I've been a terrible blogger as of late.  Sorry for that if anyone is out there!  Well, today I am home sick from work. :( No fun at all.  I've pretty much just been laying around on the couch watching crappy television... But before all this sickness happened, I actually did a couple of creative, fun things! Yay!

I've been doing more work on those geometric beads for fun necklaces.  This one I made for myself because the beads aren't super perfect, but I'm really excited to see how the others turn out...

I started taking a wheel throwing class at Lill Street Arts Center at the end of March.  These are some mugs (sans handles) I made a couple weeks ago.  I'm so super excited to glaze them next week!  We just learned how to make bowls the other day, but I'm not so sure they turned out the way I wanted.

Lastly, I have been working on sanding down a mirror that I didn't like so much.  It used to be an awesome gold, then I painted it silver, forgetting that I'm much more a gold person.  So now it's a bit of both!  I'm working on a mini bedroom makeover that I'm really excited to finish and share pictures of!  We painted and rearranged some art work, added this mirror into the mix... When this stupid sickness of mine goes away, I'll finish and post pictures!!

oh hey look! i'm organized!

Inspired by the ladies over at a Beautiful Mess from the other day, I decided to organize my makeup and all the little bits that live on top of our dresser.  As a gift to you, I am not showing the before picture.  It was pretty awful.  So yeah, for now, I'm organized.  We'll see how it goes from here!
