Molly M Designs

About a month ago (back when I still had dollars to spend and I was giddy with new-apartmentness), I placed an order for 4 of Molly M designs' lasercut prints. I waited and waited....until I discovered they had been sent to my old address in LA. Way to not change your address on paypal, D-Town. So I FINALLY brought them back with me after my visit this weekend and hung them up yesterday afternoon. I love how they look all in a row!
Finally, art above the bed

Kate at For Me, For You did a post today about them as well....definitely have a look, because there's more geometric awesomeness where that came from, AND they're available in smaller and larger sizes. Which is to say nothing of her lasercut jewelry.

The Handmade Ho Down



On Thursday, December 3rd, I know where I'll be headed after class: The Handmade Ho Down on Folsom Street! It's ticketed as the first ever "SF Etsy Urban Craft Show Event." I can't imagine what could be negative about the situation; supporting Drawbridge, an expressive arts program for homeless and other children in need, check out some great SF-based Etsy vendors, and all kinds of free SWAG? Sounds just about right to me. Throw in a photo booth and you've got yourself a deal....and done.

Our new look


Hey gang, as you may have noticed, we've given the blog a bit of a spruce. Nothing fancy, just a bit of a font change (which is likely to be subject to further tweakage) and a new header, but we're excited about it! If you like what you see there and in the flickr pics Haley posted below, rest assured you will be pleased with the final result of the Enchanted video. I just happen to know (since I'm dating him) that our composer has finished his first scratch track of the score, so it's only a matter of time before you lovelies get to have a viewing!

xo,

Missing Seasons

With only two weeks until the ski lifts usually open back home, I'm feeling awfully homesick, or rather just sick of missing the seasons. Thanks to the Aspen/Snowmass site, I can at least live vicariously through the gorgeous pictures they have captured of the seasons I'm longing for (and hopefully plan a trip to the slopes sometime in the new year).

Mulberry for Apple

As long as we're on the subject of beautiful things we in all likelihood can't afford (see below previous post), have a look-see at Mulberry's new collaboration with Apple.

Our weekend

It was a typically heartstring-pulling weekend in Los Angeles. I spent Thursday and Friday surgically attached to Chris, doing all kinds of normal activites that are that much more fun when you're with the one you love, and Friday night had a lovely little reunion with some of my best pals.
Saturday was the main event- our good friend Jessi's beautiful daughter, Lily, turned 3, and Jessi threw a Pirate's Tea Party, complete with a scavenger hunt, treasure chest pinata, netting hung about as though we were on the Pirates of the Carribean ride in Disneyland, and, of course, a happy "yarrr" day cake. We stuffed ourselves silly, and then some of us went out for dinner! Just a little Thanksgiving training.
Sunday, Haley and Carol and I took some lovely photos for the closing credits of the Enchanted Royals video....we'll show you a few in the next few days, so stay tuned.
