Archives for October 2012

Ok, I know it isn’t even Halloween (and I haven’t even gotten Bryn a costume) but I am thinking about Christmas.  Maybe that’s because I have already designed 20+ holiday cards 🙂  During my Monday Morning Procrastination Session (a.k.a Pinterest) – I found this great way to display Christmas Cards.  Just run a piece of thick ribbon down the front of your cabinets and attach the Holiday Cards with clothespins.

You can get really crafty and paint the clothespins. Or you can buy them from Say Something Sweet on Etsy (these were my favorite)-

 

Merry Christmas Y’all!

How is it already October? True story: I dated a check with the year 2006 the other day.  Needless to say, time has sneaked up on me!

Fall is my favorite time of the year.  I love the cooler temperatures (a.k.a. 85 degrees in Texas), sweaters, the color orange, and PUMPKINS!

I had to make a quick trip to pick up some paper at Paper Source today.  I saw this super-cute Pumpkin Pom-Pom kit.  Almost cute enough to make this non-crafter do crafts!

How elegant is this Staub Pumpkin Covered Casserole from Crate and Barrel?  Not sure if it is worth the $159 price tag, but a girl can dream ::Dafydd cuts and pastes below link into his Blackberry notes section::

I’m also mildly obsessed with these Antique Mercury Glass Pumpkins from Pottery Barn.  These totally beat out the styrofoam pumpkins from Hobby Lobby.

Last, I love these Chevron Pumpkin Pillows from House of Hardy on Etsy.  Bryn would probably eat them, but they would look good for five minutes before he destroyed them.

 

Now I want a Pumpkin Spice latte!

 

paper love,

I have a major paper crush on Confetti right now.  I am not talking about the cheesy ‘Happy Birthday” and “Over the Hill” Confetti circa 1992.  I’m talking about this-

 When I think of Confetti these days, kate spade pops into my head.

Even her perfume is Confetti themed-

 I love these Confetti Sprinkled Napkins –

Add Confetti to clear balloons to shake things up-

Look at these Confetti Favor Bags from Poppies for Grace-

And lastly- this Confetti Tape would look super cute on an invitation-

So, what’s your latest paper obsession?
