lots and lots of books

I've recently been on the search for mass quantities of vintage books for a few projects I'm dying to try and while I have a few piled up, I still need LOTS more. I have three main projects to try all involving books or the pages from them.


1. Pages as wallpaper-
I'm slowly redoing our half bath and since it is so small, not a lot of fun ideas can be incorporated into the design, but I thought doing one wall in book pages would give it a fun twist. (Plus it would give my boyfriend extra reading material :)


2. A table with books as legs-
I want to make a nightstand similar to these except with wood as the table top to give it a more rustic/vintage style



3. Wall art made from book pages-
I saw these at Anthropology piled into an armoire and I thought it would be awesome to make some of my own in all different shapes, sizes and colors and hang them on the wall or display on a bookshelf

an apple a day..

I just ordered this decal for my MacBook and I can not wait for it to come in! I feel as if during even the worst of computer days, I can just shut my laptop for a minute and smile at my improved apple logo and everything will be better :)


I'm also considering buying the green overlay for the apple to spice it up even more. I only wish they had one for my Iphone too.

picture perfect

I've had a photo obsession lately and while I haven't found many that I don't love, I've found several that I just adore. I need myself or family in these pictures to hang on my wall. asap.

let's be blunt here

I really want blunt bangs. I've always had side swooped bangs since I can remember and they are just getting old and boring. I can never wait for a hair appointment and end up cutting my own hair so I'm about to attempt to do so now. At the moment I have hair dye that is setting in so I'm busy looking up different blunt bang styles on a few of my fav celebs. My hair is usual a medium brown but from the sun, chlorine and week at the beach, it's gotten pretty light. I added a little more blonde with a hint of strawberry blonde highlights. Keep your fingers crossed that it all comes out looking fab.

lovely in lace

I only own a few lace shirts myself, but whenever I have one of the lovelies on, I feel so feminine and pretty. I just love it and I think I need some more.
